POE 2 Complete PC Freeze while loading screen

So....

The new video response to POE 1 players ALSO addresses...and does a bit of a mea culpa for the crashes and instability in POE 2. They plan to address this in ver. 0.2.0. He literally describes the issues as major, and does a fair bit of apologizing. Link to the video is in the login screen, and is about 3 and a half minutes.

So, it's acknowledgement. They do know what's going on, and the severity of it. That's better than the "We're aware of the problem and thank you for your patience".

Maybe there's hope?

That's a more positive reaction than I had; I hope you're right though.

My reaction is the video is not very specific and just references "crashes" and mentions many players having bad experiences and why addressing those things takes priority over POE1 currently. They also talked about not having enough time. Apparently they also don't have enough time to officially let us know anything about this particular issue and when we can expect a fix (if ever).

What's important is to look at what was said and not said at the same time. Listen to what he says about the scheduling, especially with Xmas interfering with plans. That's not the developer talking. That's corporate talking. It wouldn't surprise me if corporate is screwing with developer plans with the game. Cyberpunk is a great example. They knew it wasn't ready and tested on console properly. Corporate wanted an Xmas release. Fast forward, and they lost every dime they made at launch. That SHOULD put the fear 'o hazus! into the devs.

In the end, it's a xroads. You can focus on what has been or have hope for what can be. They screwed up. Absolutely. Did they hear the roar of complaints? Very likely. Will they fix it? Worth hoping after that mea culpa video.
bumping this back to front page where it fucking belongs... these two threads should've been pinned 2 months ago ffs
bump
another week without any update on this bug
Yesterday windows forced me to install 24h2, so since I was already experiencing sudden and frequent game crashes before that I'll have to stop playing the EA in fear of damaging my system with the freezes.

GGG, the lack of comunication about your progress on the matter at this point is just sad, I'm not even angry at it anymore. I just don't trust you anymore as I used to do before PoE2.

Cya (maybe)

I have played this game over 500h without any crashing issues. Last night my computer ran some windows updates and after that i started hard freezing while loading a new instance. When i enter the game my hideout loads just fine but after that it just freezes every time.
Delayed PoE 1 league again to fix bugs... well I'm waiting for the fix any day now GGG right?
Any updates on this issue ?
