Ashantara.8731 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 I just realized that the "mount underground bug" and "camera stays stuck" issue derives from the mount being the last texture to load when you enter a new map or map area.If, after using a WP or loading a new map, you wait until everything has finished loading, then the mount resurfaces from underground and the camera gets re-adjusted.Please fix this, ANet, by making the mount skin be the first thing to load. That way, at least one could already start navigating the map normally while waiting for the texture loading to finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vyrulisse.1246 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Yes it really needs optimization. This wasn't an issue with Gliders because the camera still followed you but with mounts it can be extremely annoying, especially in busy maps.

Jeknar.6184 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 You can still move if you orient yourself through the minimap, but yeah that's an annoying bug. It must be even worse on potatos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not every region offers super high-speed fiber internet at a reasonable fee. (With my previous connection, maps used to load within seconds, but with my current one it takes up to two minutes. And even then, not everything gets preloaded before you enter a map, unlike in other games.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ana.2415 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 I have the same problem here :< It's so annoying when my camera is stuck and I have to check minimap to move!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashantara.8731 Posted November 12, 2017 Author Share Posted November 12, 2017 Yes, ANet needs to do something about the way textures (pre-)load. (See my previous comment, which I just edit.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNecrosanct.4028 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 I have the same problem, which is quite annoying when you try to follow a bounty train. I've also noticed that it only happens with the new mount skins. If I use the default skins, the mounts pop up immediately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashantara.8731 Posted November 20, 2017 Author Share Posted November 20, 2017 @ANet: Could you please make the game load the custom skins into the temporary folder upon game launch? It is a real hassle to have to wait up to ten seconds until you are able to use a mount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 I find it happens, for me, no matter the skin...default or otherwise. It may not just be only new skins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoseofGilead.8907 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Yeah, it happens to me even with the default skins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randulf.7614 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 It is any skin. Sometimes I like to see how far I can ride my mount without being able to see my character as he disappears off into the background away from my camera.The results have been.....entertaining Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khisanth.2948 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 That explanation seems unlikely. Why would the game decide to unload my mount's skin just because I used a waypoint? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
