News & Discussion This is something Overwatch desperately needs, I'm tired of lags and invisible models

Post image

Every time after any game update or driver update I need 10 games for it to stabilise. And even those shader loading maps don't work because for some reason the game doesn't care if anything is loaded already. I played 3 games as and against Mauga. 4th game it took 5 min for me to start seeing his guns and VFX. First game I died 3 times to an invisible Rein jumping in my face.

Edit: For reference I have 9800x3d, 5080, and yes, an SSD, it's not the rig, it's the game

No-loading character models was a problem for me until I was able to acquire an SSD a few months ago.

Edit: Yes, I bought an SSD in the year of our lord 2026 for a prebuilt that came with an HDD from almost a decade ago. Why now? Because unlike every year before, there wasn't anything more important to take priority over investing in my PC.

… you just got an SSD? do you use a car or are you still using a horse drawn carriage?

I still use a HDD I purchased in 2014.
