Please Wait 15 Seconds.. Is that so Long.. ?!

Post by Merowingg »

Hello Gentlemen :)

I have posted millions of times already and I have noticed one thing..

Sometimes it takes longer than 3 seconds to upload into the game from lobby..

By that I mean when you see the map already but on the left bottom where the game menu is the % is still visible..

And it says various percentage status.. sometimes it stucks at a certain percentage for a longer time..

Mark my words

Wait !!! do not quit !!! it will load !!! where are you rushing ??? !!! If you leave the game before it is loaded you spoil the game !!! can you understand that ?? !!! the game is 2 v 3 or 4 v 3 or even 2 v 1 then...

Do remember to wait a little longer.. it will load entirely in 90% of cases..

Also I want to inform about finishing the game..

The hosts !!! do not quit one seccond after you have seen victory or defeat window !!! becuse not everyone in one sec might have received the defeat, victory window !!!

I was in few games where we fight gor 1,5 hou we won, the host said GG when we defeated and left.. but hardly any of the other players got the message of victory window..

Do not quit !!! wait 5 seconds, say "gg" say "cya soon" and then leave is that so hard to wait 5 seconds in this case ?? !!

Bye

It always takes me pretty long time to start the master, even though i usually start quickly on 2.3.7.
I'm especially curious about people who believe that long loading is because "cheats are being loaded" XD

More like textures being decoded, and possibly downscaled (if the texture size is set to less than 2048). And hey, it's the internet, new and exiting stuff is just a click away. 15 seconds... that's half of eternity.

Hmm, so having textures at 2048 makes the loading faster? o.O, i'll try it! (:

It should, but it will take more memory possibly slowing the game down.
In general, if you see glowing, pulsating things in the game, you should click on them.

Maybe it's just my limited perception, but I'm not sure that changing the texture size in Options affects terrain. Should it?

I have the same situation..

I think normal person can wait 15 seconds.. I know todays world is crazy and everything is happening much faster but we shouldnt exaggerate..

Often people feel that time passes twice as much when they are waiting on something. So if they waited for 15 seconds, it would feel like 30. That's why boring days are soooo long.

Well.. your statement sounds really fair as you have "clock" word in nick :)

By 15 seconds I mean here even 7 seconds, I gave 15 secs to extent the time as much as possible, but even 7 would be enough..

The sad truth is people dont vait even 2.. and I want to teach some etiquette.. so badly needed in Warzone lobbys this days..

P.S.
