Hard crashing PC locks up
|
After todays hotfix, I no longer required poeuncrasher. the PC is not freezing but the game still locks up time to time in maps but one good thing is the waystone is not bricked. So I can relogin and continue to complete it.
It would be good if the death animation of bosses and rares in maps are reduced. It causes some lag everytime. |

" Exactly... the problem is there are so many rabid GGG glazers that will NOT let anything negative be said about their golden child company, and will stop at nothing to lay blame on the part of the consumer to save GGG from any criticism. Just provide an update... I don't think that's asking for too much. |

PC still freezes after recent pactes. Before it only happened on locations loading screen. Now I can't even get to the log in screen and PC freezes on GGG logo. Literally unable to play, like at all. Don't wanna risk bricking my PC trying to log in. Happened 3 times in a row.

" Would you say that their official forums is public? Would you say the various discords are public? Anyone who thinks a game should be hardcrashing their pc continually and doesnt look into it nor stop playing said application that is causing the crashing is at fault, am sorry but common sense has to come into play here. GGG are at fault for a faulty product which they have already publically addressed multiple times, fixing multiple crashing instances whilst creating many others. You mention there if it was desktop crashing then you would be the one making the choice to risk crashing........ once you hard crash a couple of times you also have the chance to make the choice to stop playing until the games devs have come out and said this issue is fixed but instead choosing to risk your hardware by continually starting up the game that has a known issue and then proceed to lay blame everywhere except to yourself. EA has been ongoing for a month at this point, as mentioned they've communicated with us for multiple crash fixes but that isnt public enough or good enough? What do you expect outside of this early access being a complete and bug free game which we all knew we were not getting because its EARLY ACCESS. I've made plenty of complaints myself and my work around works for this particular issue for me otherwise I wouldnt even be starting up this game if it was hardcrashing through my work around. Keep raising awareness of the issue but jesus christ man, take some accountability for your own stupidity | |
" You're talking about completely different crash. Read the topic carefuly. " I already answered to this tens pages ago. Are you sure it is GGG's fault and not the system? When you blame GGG for that you must have evidence or at least be aware of the internals of the kitchen under the hood. Don't you think GGG added the bug on purpose just to annoy people? It's absurd! Or do they deal with something REALLY difficult to trace and fix? It's very understandable (at least for me), because the roots of the problem are out of their scope. When you blame GGG and don't blame the other guys it's ... well it's a little bit hypocritical. Average Joe thinks if THIS game crashes and freeze his PC for him - the problem is in THIS game. But it is only because he's unaware. If downvoting the game makes you feel better, go on. But the bug will be fixed only when software engineers deal with it. Look at this, after several pages of my reply (or your) the new tourists will come and post "fresh new method" how to avoid and FIX the crash - download PoEUncrasher, roll back to 23H2, disable affinity, disable in-game clocks, change the build, feed the dog, whatever. " I think you're out of touch. As a client, I want things to be fixed, because it is question of time when my system starts to hang up. I believe the problem persists in my configuration but conditions to trigger the crash are not met (yet). I understand it's difficult to comprehend for you. Post tech details or leave, stop arguing. " Exactly! They don't. " Any evidence that the PoE 2 is the real reason of the crash (GGG's responsiblity) and not anything else? The question is pretty simple. |

Same boat as others, won't be playing more until a proper fix is out. It worked fine for me until last week, now it's a 50/50 to hard freeze in a loading screen.

" I already made the choice of not playing this game until they do a big patch in which they directly address this issue. And it is my fault for not reading into their hotfix note to see that it is as vague as it could be. So me trying this hotfix is entirely on me. But I don't see them doing anything other than leaving it as a footnote in the list of fixes. When a piece of software is a danger to hardware, the developer needs to at least shrug off the responsibility if anything bad happens (ideally they fix it). How do you do it? You give a notice to users. They didn't do anything of the sort. Commenting on threads that talk about the issue asking to send them diagnostic reports is not a notice, neither is making a note in a hotfix of maybe fixing it somewhere. The forums are public, as is discord but their communication was confined to specific threads and discussions. No pinned threads, or announcements. |

" they should absolutely say something. maybe like, "please don't try play while it crashes your pc until we fix it" |

" Ok so if the problem is with the system and not the game, why am I getting the same errors on XBOX? I´m not a PC player.. look at the Xbox forum and you´ll understand. We´re not running Windows 24whatever... we don´t even follow the same update schedule. So you have a game that is freezing and crashing on multiple OS versions and systems, but you´re trying to convince us that the game is not the problem... Gina.. go back to your desk and answer those customer complaints.. you´re not fooling anyone here. PS: Before you say "oh, it´s microsoft"... here´s a link to the same complaints from PS5 players: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3622972 Last edited by xqflint#0181 on Jan 10, 2025, 7:43:19 AM

One last thing to try to get this game to stop crashing:
Change your MINIMUM Processor State to 5%, if it's set to 0%: The setting is in your Windows Control Panel -> Power Options -> Change Plan Settings -> Change Advanced Power Settings -> Processor -> Power Management -> Minimum Processor State -> enter 5% -> APPLY -> OK https://www.minitool.com/lib/minimum-processor-state.html If it's already set to 5% on your system, then ignore this. It won't help you. 0% is only recommended for laptops to conserve battery charge. 5% is the standard for always plugged-in desktops. Might help some people.
