        <![CDATA[ I don&#39;t know if this will get looked at or if the devs know this is a real problem already.

It&#39;s not a matter if you don&#39;t mind waiting 4 minutes to play the game and you don&#39;t think that is long, this isn&#39;t a point of preference to
loading times, but a point of a bug that exists that can be identified.

Apparently there are people that say they have 20 second load times, while others 3 minutes, so I want to have a place where people can post their times.
