Hi there!
I love this game way more than for example Destiny 1/2
Just idea for reducing loading screens. Why not hiding it and loading data in the background.
For example:
1. When finishing mission while displaying stats load the data for the three possible choices, forge, launch screen and fort. then when played chooses dismiss the loaded data for the two invalid choices.
2. When launching mission while displaying matchmaking and mission launch animation you can load mission data in the background.
3. When you are in the forge pre-load fort data because you always go to the fort after closing the forge.
4. When playing cut scenes or in conversation which lead to specific mission you can pre-load mission data, while in conversation/cut scene
5. Same goes for missions in which when entering caves and so , you can load data in the background while moving trough way points to enter the cave or temple

Games like Destiny mask it by seeing you flying in your ship to and from destinations. BioWare took the path of least resistance and imagination with their decision to splash a screen shot and make you wait for 2-3 minutes for the load to end. There is no attention to detail in this game. The screen tearing that goes on is comical. The abrupt ending of missions and cut scenes is also laughable. There's no excuse for BioWare to have released this game with as many issues as it has.

Oh, I forgot to ask, but what platform are you playing on? Have you had any issues with server disconnects since the patch on Saturday?

I play on PC and I can say that for the entirety of the weekend, quickplay missions were/are bugged. The game will either never load (return of infinite loading screens), place you in the mission with no objectives and the most annoying (and common), it will place your team somewhere and as you fly towards the objective, you will get "Out of mission area..." warning and it will teleport you back to the spot you started at with no way to get to the objective. I swear this happens 90% of the time.
Quickplay is straight up broken since the patch. I played a bunch of quickplay before and did not have this issue until this weekend.

It would make a world of difference if they did the mission conclusion screen in the game world itself, that way all assets are already loaded, and you would go straight from the world to tarsis (or the bay or forge).
Also, that laucnh bay is friggin useless and ugly and takes a ridiculous amount of time to load. They should've just held firm and not done that.

I can't comment specifically on your suggestions, but I'm all for shorter loading screens.  |

Or put the whole suit up cutscene into the loading screen. That would probably be better than a static artwork with some random tip.
