@ubi-spud Thank you very much for your response. I worked through the info you provided and also moved the game to a different drive. Now the issue has finally been resolved! Thanks again and have a great day!
Hi all,
When exploring the map, the game will often pause for up to a minute and display the save/loading icon in the bottom right corner of my screen. I can still move my camera, but I can't do anything else. It happens so often(at least every 1 -2 minutes) that exploring the map becomes a chore.
Anyone got any ideas on what's causing this? It's driving me nuts, and I never encountered this with Origins or Odyssey.
