Halo 3 load times? - Sep 29, 2007 07:56
The first level has been loading for like 3 minutes, wtf?

Is this normal or is my 360 fucked?

emofag, i think the third level took a shit load of time to load, about 2 minutes or so, otherwise , except for that once, everything loaded really fast, i' m satisfied.

Are you talking bout the lobby loadups or in game loadups with that fancy blue screen?

The lobby loadups tend to vary in time every so often. from a few seconds to a minute or so. After the initial couple of loads it seems to just pick up and go from there.

The load up where you see that Halo ring form and the " OHHHH AAAAAH OOOOOOH OOOOOH" music playing, mine keeps loading way past when the ring is formed.

Could you transcribe the whole song for me, please ? ;)

Other than that, yes it seems like your 360 is fukced up. Congratulations. (Or it could be some nasty scratches on your disc)

Now it' s loading normally, like 10 seconds or so.

WTF were the first two load times so long?

1st one was like 2 minutes, second one 4 minutes atleast, that was ridiculous, I was waiting for my 360 to give me the red ring of death that whole time thinking surely it must be fucked.

It' s fine now though

I dont know about the campaign, but in multiplayer if you havent played the map your getting ready to play it takes a bit longer to load the first time

It' s installing to the hard drive. The first two Halos did the same thing. Remove the hard drive and it won' t do it. If it' s already done it, it won' t do it again until you overwrite the data with downloaded porn.

The load time change cause of disk caching. Everytime my bro plays another game it takes longer for Halo 3 to load. But, if its the only game played that day it loads quickly.
