\"Quick\"loads
Why are the quickloads loading for so long in Max Payne 2? They were very fast in Max Payne 1...

mine actually differ from place to place, sometimes it loads up quickload fast, others its a bit slow.
i guess if its gotta load up where AI jump out fairly soon etc etc it will take longer to load

Same as mine. But starting up MP2 takes 1-2 minutes, that's way too long (just to get to the menu). It takes around 30 s to start up XP. Can't understand why it takes that long (I've got a pretty fast machine too).

Re: \"Quick\"loads
might have something to do with the overall texture quality? i play MP2 with everything at full, might be an answer....

Man, 10 seconds to load MP2 here. I think load leveling time depends on the map size and texture loading.

Re: \"Quick\"loads
If its taking two minutes, thats your machine. Get more RAM.

Takes no more than 10 seconds for me. ANd quickloads are usually fast, but, like stated above, in some instances was a little longer....and it did seem to corrolate with the number of spawning enemies.

Otherwise, update your drivers etc.

Hope this helps!!

P.S. If you have an ATI vid card, there were new drivers released in the past 3 weeks!
