I have been noticing longer load times myself along with my friends but I think earlier tonight was the longest it has ever taken me. I hit launch to go to tower went and fixed a drink and something to eat then came back sat down and it was over 10 minutes after I sat down before I landed in tower. I would be willing to bet it was almost 15 minutes of flight and I have a SSD. I had friends waiting on me and they kept asking if I had made it to get my bounties yet. When I finally landed so did at least 10 other people.
