Stuck on loading screen

Hi all,

I have this issue with 2042 that basically pisses me off and causes me to not be interested in playing it.

Whenever I load up the game, It load sup and goes into that loading vibes where you see the maps, world etc and stays there in a cycle.

I can't get out of it (normally) and have to ALT-F4 to close it, then I load up 2042 again and it goes to the game menu etc.

How do I fix this... it's been happening since the release and since then, when I get the urge to play, I have to sit with this issue, ALT-F4 and then get into the actual menu and then I have lost the interest to play.

I've actually just decided to make the effort NOW to fix this problem.

Thoughts...
