Nearly infinite loading screens, especially in hideout

I had issues on Vulkan. Switched to DX12 and no more issues. The difference is I get half the frame rate on DX12 over Vulkan so I'm not happy about it.
I notice that when transitioning zones, it takes forever, but it would seem that the server already acknowledged that I've arrived to the place, judging by what the Client.txt shows.

The last "You have entered kingsmarch" shows up when im literally on the loading screen and I see Shader at maximum.

A few observations

- Kingsmarch, which has no additional things this league (e.g breach stuff) takes a long time
- Maps that spawn a hive take an INSANE amount of time.
- Regular maps that do not spawn hives are relatively normal timing.
