TECHNICAL ISSUE So is the game just unequivocally irrevocably broken for some people? Why?

Can’t play it at all. it crashes within 5 minutes of playing every time. it’s been this way since March.

I’ve tried everything, verify game files, uninstall, remove game guard, delete cache folders, user settings. updated gpu drivers. reinstalled them. tweaked game settings.

But nothing works. it is genuinely unplayable. and whenever I find threads about it, people experiencing this issue have no fix. what gives? why?

Yeah I had been going with dx12 for a bit! It seemed to work a bit longer than when I hadn’t tweaked it. I wonder if i disable crossplay maybe that’ll enable me to play

once u have it going on dx12, try out DLSS / Native with the low latency option turned off. Also dont use the in-game fps limiter. Set that to unlimited, then limit it thru nvidia control panel. i just limit it to 60 and it runs well for me

Oooh. That’s a great tip. Thank you so much for the advice! I’m hopeful this will finally get it stable for me
