PoE 2 is actively damaging PCs and GGG is on Holiday without fixing it - Loading Screen PC Freeze

I have PC freezes on loading screens.

Since 3.25 I got game crashes sometimes but not PC crashes. I had hope they would fix it within PoE 2 EA release.

Changing in-game settings doesn't change anything. It still uses 100% of CPU on loading screens.

Bad RNG I guess since crashes are random.

My game has been set to real time priority for the past 10 days, and I havent had a single issue, crash or freeze. Do note that I have CPU 0 and 1 disabled for the game.

I tried this, and I has been playing for 5 hours without getting any problems, re-post here so more ppl can see this.

I have exactly 186.9 hours of gameplay, I have tried several ways to solve the problem, but nothing yet... I am tired of putting my PC on the line, I do not regret having paid for early access, but I will not play again until GGG finally solves this.

just throwing mine in there. was completely fine up until today. now every 5-10 maps, portal load screen bug. bricked 2 breach lords bosses today to the point where i literally dont know why im playing anymore. EA or not, holidays or not this isnt exactly a good look

You should be embarrassed and frankly banned for posting such hyperbole. Nothing you described threatens anyone's hardware, you're just throwing a temper tantrum and fearmongering because the beta early access game has some flaws.

I've reported your comment for both the personal attack and the obviously factually incorrect lie you tried to promote. Hope they take action against you.

Yo ChatGPT tone it down. If your potato stops working because you push the button on your computer literally designed to restart it, you likely need a new potato.

NTFS may run into some issues with data actively being written during a hard restart, everything else will be completely fine. Ignore the techo babble of your nonsense genai.

Feel free to look up PoE2's minimum requirements, followed by the effects of power-cycing electrical components.

Blame manufacturers, not GGG. They have nothing with your hardware design.

How can anyone with a functioning brain inside their skull not understand this constantly happening over and over again puts electrical components at risk. What is actually missing in there? Low blood flow?, cells?, IQ?. I explained the concept to my 11 year old daughter and even she understood the basic principles of how electricity works and what can happen with abrupt shut downs or sudden increases in power. Although she didn't answer the question 100% correct she wasn't too far off. What is wrong with you guys that you feel the need to defend companies so hard who literally don't care about you (not really) only your money. Now I'm not saying GGG are jerks because they are not. They are trying to feed their families like the rest of us. But you specifically don't matter. Stop fanboying.

If you feel your hardware is not enoguh protected against sudden power off / on, write letter to hardware manufacturers, so they will change / update the industry standards and make modern hardware even more protected. And don't buy trash components giving money to the companies producing low quality components like it was 13/14th intel gen, first x3d amd series, VHPWR connectors etc, even they mark their trash product with those retarded names like "PRO!", "TURBO", "XXX GTX TURBO EX", "ULTIMAGE MEGA PSU C'MON YO!", "STREAMER APPROVED MOTHERBOARD PRO XTREME 5D 1000% OVERCLOCKED". I believe everyone appreciate your efforts.

But how is it related to the user mode application??? A lot of systems affected by vulnerability, it's not GGG fault.

Hard freezes only on loading screens when starting the game trying to load into town. Happens about 1/3 of the time. The gears stop turning, then 30ish seconds later the music freezes too, and I can only hard restart the whole pc via the button on the tower.

Things seem to work better when i use BES 1.7.9 cpu limiting software and limit it to -5%.
