Re: PC Version - post patch 1.05 - "loading shaders" taking too long
A clean boot changed nothing, the game itself seems to be unsure of what it is doing as it cycles through the loading shaders part - it often starts at 1/1000 and get's to 999/1000 and then restarts etc. (Numbers aren't specific but just trying to point out what the issue is).
I have the game installed to a Seagate SSD, and have verified the game data through Origin.
The game itself ran fine before the patch but the patch has introduced this loading issue. I have also tested this with both the latest Nvidia driver (381.65) and it's predecessor (378.92) and the issue is the same.
Previous to the patch the game booted in seconds as did loading save files.
Edited to add - I play the game in fullscreen mode (no window). I use a secondary Pc to browse.
