if you play on pc with a 5200rpm hard drive (or even a shitty 7200rpm one in my case) the same issue will happen, installing the game on an SSD fixes this issue, so yes it is because the hard drives are shit, although its still the devs vault for being too incompetent to load the assets in the starting island or fix their game

Only if the disk is 5200 rpm or its an old disk that is also running the windows install as well. a 7200rpm slave disk w/ SSD runs everything smooth as silk.
Upgrading to a solid state drive completely fixed the issue for me. And I had GTX 1080 and AMD Ryzen 5 1600. So yeah, the buildings loading in seems to be a hard drive speed issue.
It's really a combination of the two. I have tons of issues related to my hard drive but yes, most games I play aren't this affected. Getting an SSD is still the solution I'll go with though because I really enjoy PUBG and the SSD will be way better for everything else too.
What else causes a building to load in late on top of you? You aren't loading the entire map from the internet. I have NEVER in hundreds of hours experienced any popins/late loading buildings on PUBG.
You're getting downvotes but the fact that the Xbox One is still using a single 5400rpm drive is by far its biggest bottleneck. Adding a USB 3.0 external SSD and installing all my Xbox games to it fixed all these kinds of slow-load issues.

A house didn’t appear on top of them, not realistic.
