Laggy animal trading

[ChronicChaos84]

I couldn't find a support forum, so I hope this is ok here. I have been enjoying the game a lot, I have over 40 hrs in franchise mode so far. Only problem is I can hardly use the animal trading. It lags so bad, some time i have to click a button about 20 times for it to work. I have been trying to buy Gorillas since yesterday when they announced the new challenge because it takes about 20 clicks to select the animal then another ~20 to purchase. By then its sold. My internet is not the problem, I am hardwired to a very good internet connection. Not the RAM, I have 32GB. I disabled Steam beta, still slow as heck. Any help would make my gaming experience 100%. Thanks

Edit: The pages load quick, and it seems to work fine except for the fact that the buttons either don't work unless you click a bunch, or its lagging and not registering the clicks. I literally have to click really fast for around 10 seconds.

Happens to me as well. Buttons break half the time if I don't reload the entire menu, and by the time I've done that, the animals I wanted to buy are gone.

I figured it was a common problem, thats why I never said anything about it and just endured it, but every streamer I see seems to not have the problem.

You will most probably not have this problem when you filter for a species.
It's only when you are listing all or majority of the market that it gets all hiccuppy.
I've been playing Franchise all day, yesterday and when I'm buying an animal I just filter the market for just that one animal and everything works fine.

That last part is the most annoying one. Yesterday missed out on a few good deals.
I was spamming the refresh button, and most likely most people are doing this.. I think most games will suffer when a lot of people continue to click the refresh button..

Sadly isn't really working for me. In some cases it does, but it depends on how many animals it finds after applying the filters. If there are only five or six, it seems okay, but when there are lots of animals of that kind, it doesn't help that much. Needs fixing.

After clicking a button, hit "Enter", this does the trick for me.

I always use every filter possible, and trust me, it still breaks. It's the only way to get any good animals out of the market anyway since 99% of it is either inbred and with horrible genetics, or overpriced.
