POE 2 Complete PC Freeze while loading screen

i dont think they will fix it in hollydays

I was playing on Win10 perfectly fine, then I installed Win11 and immediately had these crashes.

I ran Poeuncrasher that has been recommended here and has completely fixed the problem. It has a log of whenever it has prevented your system from crashing, and it seems to happen a lot more frequent in the first 4 - 5 loading screens. After that, it seems to not crash so much.

Good temporary fix until GGG and/or Microsoft manages to fix it.

Honestly, people should stop posting here. GGG isn't going to fix this until next year. People should start asking for refunds and putting negative reviews on steam.

I'm not gonna leave a negative review over it. Obviously the timing is very unfortunate since they've mostly gone home for the holiday season, and I still think the game is amazing. It just doesn't actually let me play it for now lmao.

Yeah, and the fact that they have gone radio silent about this issue.

Mistakes happen, but this radio silence from GGG isa driving me crazy.

I don't care if they cannot fix the issue in time.

The problem is complete silence and lack of warnings. All they had to do is to acknowledge the issue, warn people about not trying to play the game if they are crashing, give an estimated time of fix, apologize.

That's it. This extremely simple thing has not been done by GGG.

The game is a bug filled mess that shouldn't have been released this early (maybe in 6 months time) but that's another issue. I get that they wanted this prime time release. Probably Tencent pushed them for it.

Furthermore, I ask anyone who sees this message to please give a negative review for Path of Exile 2 on Steam.

yeah considering it's early access and all that, issues like this aren't too surprising. but i agree the silence regarding it is honestly disappointing

Path of Exile 1 team had previously learned the lesson to not release leagues right before holidays.

Guess we'll have to wait until after holidays for the game to be fixed into a somewhat stable state.

been using PL to play for about a week now. had a hard freeze while loading early this morning. and had a "half freeze" that WAS recoverable, but had to manually close the game in the task manager.

what I'm VERY curious about is...have any streamers at all mentioned this? if they haven't, i feel GGG told them beforehand and how to avert this issue. but us peasant folk that don't grovel at their feet get radio silence about it.

just a feeling.
