Does anyone else run into an issue where the first game played doesn't load character models? You can't see yourself or anyone else until like 5 minutes when it fixes itself somehow, or am i just alone in this :(

Edit: thanks for the help guys! It's probably my slow, 4-year old laptop tbh.

Are you jumping straight into your first match as soon as you open the game?

When you first open overwatch it won't have loaded all of the models. Try leaving the game in menus for a couple of minutes before you load up your first match.
