  • Describe the issue you are experiencing: Game freezes and then crashes while decorating house while in 90% of the house locations, I have to find random spots where I don’t crash to quickly throw furniture down before it freezes and crashes again. This is the same story for literally everyone I know who plays this game and decorates their house.

  • (if a bug) Please include a screenshot or video of the issue that you have experienced:
  • What are the steps to reproduce the issue as you experienced: Decorate a house. The thing that I notice before the crash begins is the “Decorations Placed” number starts to go crazy about 2 seconds before the crash happens. This has to be affecting 10’s of thousands of players, how this is not a known bug yet I have no idea.

System specs - i9-9900k, 2080ti, 32gb ddr4 4733mhz cl18 ram, windows 10, game installed on samsung 980 pro m.2 nVME ssd - also happening on various other systems of people I know who play the game, gets worse as you place more items in your house. Now that my house is at 215 items it’s basically impossible to decorate

Same for me.

PC Specs:

  • i7 8700k
  • MSI Z370 Gaming Pro Carbon
  • 32GB 3600Mhz DDR4
  • MSI RTX 3070 Gaming X Trio
  • Game installed on: Samsung 850 EVO 500GB
  • Windows 10 latest Build

For me the game freezes for 10-60 seconds, after that i have a short time window like 2-5 seconds where i can move/place etc. then the game freeze again.
When i press ‘L’ for leave house in the 2-5secs time window i leave the house and have no more problems.
