I have been having the same issue since release. I have formated my xbox and reinstalled the game twice and it still gives me the same issues. ---

I load of an SSD in seconds. Its kinda pointless to have a gaming PC without one. ---

Having the game on a hard drive it takes a long time. Hard drive first time map load takes 1-2min If it’s been loaded already within the past like few hours, it loads in under a min. With a m.2 ssd any map loads in under 20 sec lmao. ---

Hopefully the upcoming patch will remedy this. If not - DICE has some of the longest and most boring loading screens on their hands that I’ve seen in a game. At this point, I’m loading games of GTA V Online faster, which is just sad. ---

Do you have this game loaded on a SSD or a mechanical hard drive? Once you go SSD, you’ll never go back (it’s like going to 1440p and never looking back to 1080p or 4K and never looking back to, etc. etc. ad infinitum) ---

I had been trying to play since launch and never got in. I would go into a multiplayer game and it would just sit there and load. Today I downloaded the game directly to a new external hard drive (the western digital passport x made for xbox) now I get into a game in under a minute. When the game ends and it’s time to load a new one I am in before it starts and waiting for everyone else. Not sure why yours isn’t working but I wanted to let you know I had a similar problem that was fixed by a new drive ---

For me, the loading takes long because the of the cut scenes at the beginning of Operations. They freeze , but I still see the spinning icon, so I know it is still loading. My OS is on SSD , but I keep my games on a HDD. ---
