### Please select what you are reporting on: Creative ### What Type of Bug are you experiencing? Loading Times ### Summary I have a issue with my uefn game, For some odd reason when trying to load into it in fortnite. It sits on preparing for 3 - 5 minutes on pc and even worse on Xbox, taking 8 - 10 minutes. I have been working on this game for around 3 months and i may as well stop now because no one would wait that long to get into the game. There is nothing i can do on my end. Im hoping you guys can help. ### Steps to Reproduce Im unsure, im 99% sure though that it has to do with somewhat bigger UEFN maps. and mine is. ### Expected Result Long preparing times ### Observed Result Long preparing time ranging depending on your device. ### Platform(s) PC, NINTENDO, XBOX, PLAYSTATION, MOBILE. ### Island Code Its unfinished and unlisted, I cant share the code yet. ---

Unfortunately not, my current lead is that it may be account related. I’m not too sure though. ---

I was told today this is happening to my map as well. Would be nice to have some answers. A normal person is not going to sit and wait for multiple minutes to get into a game. They will just hit back and choose another game. Its a map killer ---
