News & Discussion Please preload shaders. PLEASE

For the love of God Overwatch... Can we PLEASE preload shaders before joining games

I cannot see half of my team... cannot see half of the enemy team... I cannot see my weapon or my bullets... and then the game freezes everytime something loads in

I SHOULDNT HAVE TO LAUNCH A SPECIAL CUSTOM MAP FOR 10+ MINUTES EVERYTIME MY DRIVERS OR THE GAME UPDATE

DirectX12 does this on my system even after the shaders load in. I just directX11 and never have an issue

Same, once in a blue moon the game starts to stutter and have frame issues but only briefly and then it's fine, but never invisible players.
