ways to increase my load speed?

[MissMalice]

What you could do is start up a random mission, then sit and wait inside the campship before the EQ starts, and just start the EQ from the campship when its time to go.

Doesn't really increase your loading speed, but it has helped those of us who have slower loading speeds.

Get an ssd drive should make loading speed a lot faster.

its not your pc, its the way pso 2 was designed.

if you pc is low end i supose you will run at 30 fps.

in this game for some god forsaken reason, the framerate defines the loading speeds.

ive tested this. 30 fps i get around 8-10 seconds
60 fps i get half the time.
90 i cant test, my pc cant handle it.

but i guess the fps clocks everything on the game.

edit
----------------------------------
so after testing.

15.93 at 30 fps

8.20 seconds at 60 fps

6.70 seconds at 90 fps my pc cant reach 90 so the result is probbly wrong.

with shaders on i get 2 second increase on each framerate

also for some reason my pc caps at 77 fps, with or without oc

I used TACO to test each setting just now, from 30 fps to unlimited, every loading time is 13 seconds, except "unlimited" which got a 14 seconds loading time. Is something wrong with my computer?

i would doubt it, maybe theres something wrong with mine? ._.

but ive also had this, even in the beta when i was trying to find the optimal shader/fps ratio

i always loaded faster on 60fps or up.

maybe its a bug on the game?
