Has anyone else experienced a real bad slowdown on occasion where controls are unresponsive and audio and framerate are choking? I assume this has to do with loading new areas/assets of the open world, but it has really screwed me over on a couple occasions.

2 caveats: I'm in the dashboard preview program, and I'm not running the game from an external drive.

So, if you haven't experienced this... I'd love to have an excuse to buy an external drive, for example.

For now... I can deal. Or convince myself it's Kojima trolling me somehow.

I'm sorry guys I just saw this thread... forgive me it's early

The game stutters when I get into a big area, especially in Africa. Also the audio bug happens to me a lot. Can some please help me. If I can't get it to work right, I'll just buy another copy on the ps4
