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

"
Also getting this issue.
PC randomly crashes after afking for a while, has happened twice now.

Specs:

Windows 10
AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D (No Overclocking)
AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (No Overclocking)
32GB DDR5 6000Mhz (No Overclocking)
Installed on a 1TB WDBlue M.2 Drive

The game is running at 4k, everything maxed.

It's not an overheating issue, and my PC does not suffer playing any other game, even intensive games.

Not sure where to check for crash logs, checked event viewer in Windows but there's nothing around the time it crashed.


Check your dxdiag report.

Windows Key + R
Write dxdiag to the box.
Let it run.
Click save all information.
Save the report.
Ctrl+F. Search for PathOfExile.

It should be looking like this:

Problem signature:
P1: PathOfExileSteam.exe

Under this P1 there will be the continuation of the information going from P2 to P10.

Furthermore, I ask anyone who sees this message to please give a negative review for Path of Exile 2 on Steam.
I cannot send/reply to direct messages because my in-game character has not finished Act 1.
What to do:
1)Write a short review about the hard crashes in notepad.
2)Copy and paste it to steam reviews, put up a negative review.
3)Copy and paste it to steam discussions, put it up there.

Bump same! Uninstalled after it happened a few times on a brand new machine I call it the 5 series waiting room machine - really insane to just hard freeze over n over. Not taking any risks stay safe!

As if they care hahaha.
They already got the juice money anyways.
I'm sure they already know about the problem and will fix it in the future. But at the moment they have other priorities.
Bumping the thread with 7 crashes so far today. I've only had crash issues for the last 3 days, but now it is unplayable.

Sure they will, this problem has persisted for at least 4+ years on PoE1.
Also seem to have the same issue. Random crashes where it mostly shuts down my PC completely.

AMD Ryzen 5 7600 6-Core
AMD Radeon RX 7600
32gb RAM

Either when I'm playing with a friend occasionally or porting to town.

Didn't happen in POE1.

Side note. My razor keyboard failed to work a couple of times after it crashed & shut-down. Had to restart a few times and changed usb port.

+1

Constant system freeze when changing map and poor game preformance overall.

About 100 games run without a single problem on my system.

Even bricked my old mainboard (gigabyte ab 350) as result to an bios update since people said it would help.

Now running an b550 elite v2 with most up to date bios, win 11 and all newest drivers.

At first map change the system freezes again (lol)..

Have to admit that i changed from win10 to win11 as one of the first actions to fix the bad preformance.

The complete system frezze started to happen at win11 (at win10 i only bad preformance and crashes).

Wont touch the game or change the system anymore untill this is fixed since i allready had to rebuild my pc (basicly for nothing)...


Gigabyte b550 elite v2
AMD Ryzen 7 3700x
Geforce 2070 super

Bump... Same reoccurring issue as others in this thread. System freezes when porting requiring a hard reset after a couple of hours of playing. When it happens I pretty much think "F this game..." then move onto another non-GGG game that doesn't do the same.

System specs:
- Ryzen 7 3700X
- ASUS Crosshair 8 Hero
- EVGA RTX 3080Ti FTW3
- 16GB RAM
- Win11 24H2


My system is overclocked which I'll mess with to see if it alleviates the freezes and provide update.

Happy holidays everyone!
