Loading time in Van Buren

[Odin]

Ok I know it's not much, but it was the only thing I hadn't posted about. JE answered a question about the loading time in Fallout 2 versus Van Buren, and here's his reply:<blockquote>The octrees can be pretty large, but we are taking steps on Van Buren to keep them reasonable. Adhering more strictly to polygon limits should help a lot, as should building the levels "smarter".

It's hard to remember how long Fallout 2 levels took to load; they seem pretty fast on my 2 gig machine.</blockquote>Well, I don't mind the loading time that much. As long as it doesn't take two beers and three sigarettes!

Yeah I sure as hell disliked smoking three Sigarettes while waiting for the Toxic Caves to load!

With a machine that meets the recommended requirements, you didn't experience any tedious loading times.

If the game is worth it, the loading times won't be too big a deal. I've come to expect long loading times from any Interplay/Black Isle game anyway, or at least longer loading times than games from any other company.
