PS3 Version Loading Issues After 2.2

[File2ish]

Since 2.2 launched, I've had several issues regarding load times of zones and in game models in general on the Playstation 3 "Super Slim" model.

I've encountered at least three cases of the game failing to load while teleporting or when the game loads a cut scene. The screen fades to black as per usual when teleporting or transitioning to a cut scene, but the issue is immediately after the fact. When teleporting, the screen fades to black and shows the name of the area zoned into, but stays on a black screen for much longer than normal. It took nearly five minutes for the game to finally load Horizon, while Mor Dhona failed to load after several minutes, so I had to restart the game.

The most recent issue I've had was in an Amdapor Keep dungeon run, when the cutscene for the final boss cut in, it failed to load within a reasonable time and I was forced to reset the game.

Other loading issues I've encountered include slow draw rates of NPCs for quests, such as the new Main Scenario quests in Vesper Bay and Mor Dhona. It took about ten seconds for the NPC Hozan to appear in the questline involving him in Vesper Bay. Or the Chocobo drawn carriage spawning five to ten seconds after the other non-player models in the immediate area have loaded.

Granted, in the cases involving teleporting and NPCs, the zones at the time were more populated than usual and may have been causing the effect. I am unsure if other players using the PS3 console are having this issue, I know of one player who isn't having the issues I have been encountering. However, his PS3 has had the hard disk drive replaced with a faster, larger capacity HDD than it's original stock HDD.

I've had the same problem. Though they will prolly close your thread because you didn't use their preferred format for bugs. I have a Hybrid SSD HD in my PS3 and it lockes up when teleporting to swiftperch. I had to log in on my pc account and move my character to another zone to get back in... and then it repeated itself when warping to swiftperch again.

Same thing has happened to me. Loading Mor Dhona is a "crap shoot" (now that I'm going for my Relic, that makes it a nightmare), and I just finished the Chimera fight... and had to reload on the final cutscene. And that run didn't count. It's not like it was difficult, but I waited 10 mins for the 1st group. Now I'm waiting for the 2nd group. Time is money in this game. Literally. By the way... I'm on a PS3. Original everything. Never had load/lag issues before.
