Is anyone else having issues with battelfrony taking like 5 minutes just to get to the home screen? And then it takes forever to load into games? ****UPDATE**** buy an external hard drive if you are on Xbox, seemed to help me. Battlefront is starting up instantly and performing much better

@EA_DavidI am on Xbox one and it takes about 5 minutes to load to the main menu and then another 3-5 to get loaded into a game. It is extremely frustrating cause i feel like I’m doing more sitting than play.

I also wanted to add that I’ve checked my WiFi and i have full bars and I’ve reset my WiFi, hard reset my Xbox, and redownloaded the game. Nothing seems to work

Me too on PS4 takes about 5 minutes to actually get the game loaded then another 2 or 3 mintues to get a multiplayer match loaded, pathetic.

For me it seems to help limiting the FPS in Game. You can do it by opening the Console with ~ key and type "gametime.maxvariablefps xxx". Replace xxx with the Number of Frames.You can also create a file called user.cfg with this command in it. Place it in the Gamedirectory where you installed the game and it loads every time you start the game.It seems this helped me

@matterickson33 Hi, what system are you on? If it's PC are you tabbing out? Perhaps leaving the game fullscreen/in focus will help?

@Merty211 What system are you on? Do the steps in my previous post have any effect, if you're on PC?

The not-tabbing out doesnt seem to be working. And i dont know what you mean by the fullscreen?

Sorry I wanted to ensure you were playing the game in Fullscreen mode, as opposed to WIndowed.

If this isn't a factor, perhaps restarting your system with a Clean Boot may help.

I had the same problem (PC) - updating to the latest graphics driver solved the problem for me.

i have a similar problem on my ps4 pro. The most of the times the game crashes/freezes when i quit from the online game to the main menu. The screen turns black however the white circle loading symbol continue working. I wait 4-5 minutes then i close application and run the game again from ps4 games menu list.
