Bad Company 2 Slow PC Load Times Fixed by ATI Beta Drivers
ATI warns that these drivers won't work on HD5800 Eyefinity 6 products, while ATI's Terry Makedon says on Twitter that a fix for series 4800 cards is planned for next week.
Bad Company 2 recently received a second map pack and PC gamers apparently do still have Battlefield 1943 to look forward to, which EA says is due "soon."

axiomatic
replyWas this issue intermittent? I perceive no slow down in loading levels when playing this game. I'm using 2x 5870's.

Yeah, this is probably it. It was completely painful going from an 8800 to a 5800. The hotfix works great though!

No intermitency. The graphic driver was always compiling the shaders as a part of loading the level, instead of using precompiled ones (or something like that). Let's say perhaps the game needs 21 seconds to load a level in your pc.
Well, it truly should need only 9 seconds, the other 11 were doing the shader part.-

Its noticable on my friends ATI card compared to my GTX260. My game loads in about 6-7 seconds, where his takes about 35-40 seconds.
