Khuja, I know my post isn't massively helpful but just wanted to say thank you.

I've been going crazy due to this recently. I've been playing for 6 months perfectly fine and then suddenly 3 weeks ago the same stuff started happening with me with exactly the same experiences.

I have reinstalled the game 3 times, checked for ram problems and checked for memory leaks and nothing helped.

I've been really worried it's my computer but switched off direct x 11 and it's working fine now.

Honestly not sure why this is happening suddenly but it's exactly the same problem.

It gets stuck in loading or zoning. It loads to a point and then suddenly stops and if I just leave it alone occasionally it will load or occasionally it will time out. Any guidance anyone could give on fixing this would be so appreciated.
