Sounds like early 360 games. I remember them have long load times too. Personally I think it's down to coding, but it's possible that the BR drives are not performing at the rated spec. I highly doubt it's a slow HDD, I don't think it will be much slower (if at all) than PS4's.
Hmmm. Is this from the extended launch stream? I'd like to see this unedited.
The Wii U system was slow and sluggish at launch but a System Update released earlier this year speeded the whole system up. Everything from boot time, opening/closing apps and multitasking was dramatically improved.
Microsoftjust need to release an update once they fix the bugs and missing features.and SONY
I died in Ryse earlier on and the loading took so long that I just turned the game off. I was honestly sat waiting for a good 5 mins.
Ryse really surprised me. Player I watched died inside a house (small area) and just reloading the checkpoint took about 30-60 seconds. Loading savefiles in CryEngine games on PC is almost instant if the level is already loaded, so I'm not sure what is going on with Ryse considering the PC like architecture of the bone.
I think further down the road, there will be a pretty big number of people bravely trying to insert new hard drives into their Xbox One's to increase load times. If you have seen the videos of how to disassemble them, getting there is a pain. This is why I use the word 'bravely".
I was under the impression that the drive was not replaceable and by doing so you not only void your warranty, but also risk having your console banned from XBL.Wait hold on, so is it replacable even if difficult? Are there any speed comparisons?
No joke. Especially with WD scorpio the boot up is super fast where I don't feel the need to use stand by mode.Sad to hear. The 360 trained me to turn the system on or select an app and go do other things while it loads. I was hoping thngs woupd be better with the XB1 because the PS4 is no joke when it comes to speed. Switching between apps/games is instant, boot up is quick and it just blows my mind every time I do it.
What does that have to do with loading games?
Gerstmann said KI load times were very bad. The Polygon stream had crimson dragon and it was loading pretty slow too.
Depends on the area apparently. Can take 5 seconds or 2 minutes depending where you die. Initial load time is masked by pre-rendered cutscenes.What? I'm playing Ryse now and checkpoints take 10 seconds to reload. Didn't notice anything long about the initial load time either.
I dunno if it's understood or not, but DR3 loads the whole world so it's a lot to load. even if it is a checkpoint restart.
5 minutes? Really? I just played Ryse and I have to say you might actually have an issue then with your system.
