It often takes 2 minutes or more even on my 1-year old desktop computer. By the time the map has loaded, the setup time has usually already passed, which is rather frustrating. When starting the game, the menu background shows but it takes rather long for the menu to actually appear, compared to the Windows version.

Disconnecting from a server also seems to take a rather long time. I'm not sure if it's related. The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:. Sorry, something went wrong. Connecting to a server took several minutes: the text on the screen said 'Retrieving server info', the 'Cancel' button was unresponsive.

Simply loading local bot matches takes a fairly long time, but the game itself plays fine one loaded. Also for me is very slowly, after the splash screen before the menu of FT2 , when search and "retriving server info" and when quit. I tried now!! Operating System Version: Ubuntu Org Foundation X Server release: Here's hoping for a fix. Same here. Mint 14 64 bit with cinnamon, with an AMD and the Once in I'm usually fine depending on the server.

Yes, "retrieving server info" is what takes up most of the time. I also find that Retrieving Server Info takes several minutes, both when connecting to the server and when changing maps. Having never played TF2 on Windows, however, I wasn't sure if it was a bug or not.

Then I experienced a map change on a Payload Race server, after which I missed the entire first area because it took so long to connect. I just want to add myself to the list of users affeccted by this. The same system takes just a couple of seconds doing the same on Windows 7. I can't past the white "loading I mean the the "loading It hangs. It's worse and worse. I waited more than 30 minutes. I also have this issue.

It's not as bad as others minutes but it's still annoying. Also it seems to be a freeze of some sorts, because during most of the wait I can't open the Steam overlay. If I open the overlay beforehand I can't interact with anything.
