It seems you want a lot more people to visit that then those of us who do visit it every day.

SO you need to do something. Don't do what you did years ago when you abolished room 1. instead allow us to choose whatever room we want before we teleport there, you know, exactly like you allow us to go to someones golf course. or teleport us to a random room.

ANYTHING is better then getting stuck in room 2 for the 30-90 seconds it takes to load

Oh yes! I was thinking the same thing with new quest it would be great to pick! I keep having to reload :(

2 things that prove bw2 has a memory leak, and both for the same reason, and both are reasons many people do not partake of either aspects of the game.

1. amicus island. it is all well and good that one can change rooms, but one is not able to until island is fully loaded and even then one still can't move for several more seconds. that is a digression from this discussion. this is the increase of ram used upon going to amicus, go once and ram increases a few hundred meg, go again and its even more then a few hundred meg more, go a third time and you have to close browser and reload cause ram is in the gigs. not a windows 10 thing, not a browser thing, happens on mac's and linux and any number of different browsers.

2. using friend whacks. I have not used those for several months, i check once in a while to see if the devs fixed the memory leak. use 10 or 20 friends and ram is in the gigs forcing a reload, try to use all your 150 and thats a dozen reloads.

the cause of both of these: loading a friend or friends image with hat and sword and glasses and cape and gloves and in some cases pet and mount, and then not unloading that when done with that pretty near millisecond one actually uses them.

not sure if this will help also.
i clear flash cache once a week.
i say No to using memory or whatever that first choice is, and then say Yes to allow or whatever that second one is.
any other of the 4 possible combinations of these choices just plain cause black screens all the time and such.
i never get black screens if i do it this way. i never have ram issues with anything else in this game except perhaps amicus inventory/storage/store. but that might just be the whole amicis malaise

recently i have been on my ranch or golf course and opening the store, or inventory, or storage also causes RAM usage to creep up into the Gigabytes causing the need for a reload. it never used to do this.
something is wrong somewhere and i tend to think it is not my computer because it only happens for what i have described, and is repeatable and happens on many different computers exactly the same
