POE 2 Complete PC Freeze while loading screen

Faster with this? At this point it's outright negligence and anti-consumer behavior on their part. Do they actually hate us? Because this reads as "fuck you" to anyone experiencing this issue.

Guys, listen up please!

That's not a Windows problem, ffs.
If it was, GGG would have already said like:

"Windows 24h2 has a problem with POE. We do not recommend using it right now." It's simple.

The problem is entirely on GGG's side.

This ... and i will add up even if was a Windows problem GGG have to fix their game. because as i see it they sell it right now! Selling underbake product....

I’ve tried everything suggested in threads and forums across the internet, but nothing seems to work. Here’s what I’ve attempted so far:

Removed Windows Game Bar.

Disabled some of the CPUs.

Set the game to real-time priority.

Uninstalled Windows 24H2 and reverted to an older version.

Lowered my FPS settings.

Reduced the graphics quality.

Allocated more memory to shading on my graphics card.

Used POE Uncrasher to prevent crashes.


I’ve literally tried everything. The most extreme thing I’ve done so far is setting up a Docker container with Linux, loading SteamOS onto it, and running the game on Linux. Surprisingly, that worked, but playing it from the container introduces some lag.

I just want to play the game normally =[

One month without playing, logged in to see if the problem was solved, in the first loading screen pc freezes, very nice GGG lol

only way to play right now is without multithread enabled at like 30 fps...

Please fix this Wolcen-like game.

still super sad i cant grind away poe2 on a saturday night.

Bump for visibility.

No one know a famous player who can handle this problem and try to have GGG attention ?

IDK but near 2 month game release (Ok, early access), but we paid and we can't play.. and over all, we all play with our pc setting health.

I'am so frustrated.

The only way is to get a big streamer who can bring this up to the developers. The last "interview" they had was just glazing and not really focused on discussing massive fixes/bugs for the game.

Might be JOEVER boys -- how do we get refunds for stash tabs? I can get the refund for the game through Steam but not sure about stash tabs.

First total freeze of my machine, requiring hard reboot today. No Windows button, alt/tab, no three finger salute. Complete crash.
