[Orvas_Dren]

Game randomly crashes after latest patch. Have never experienced random crash after 100+ hours until the latest patch.

Latest windows 10.
Ryzen 7 5800X
Graphics drivers all updated. Gigabyte 3070 running @2560x1440 Max Settings - Temps/GPU usage always nominal

Computer state has been the same since starting the game. Computer is %100 stock clocks with no overclocked CPU, GPU, or memory.
Event log is clean - game files have been verified.
Internet connectivity is not dropping during issue events.

I will provide any further hardware documentation requested to help you narrow down the issue with the game - Thank you.

Hello @Orvas_Dren!

I am sorry about the performance issues you are experiencing, thank you so much for the information provided.

Please run a file check and then try the following troubleshooting:

• Ensure your video drivers are up to date:
  AMD: https://support.amd.com/en-us/download
  Intel: Intel® Driver & Support Assistant
  Nvidia: Download The Latest Official GeForce Drivers

• Reset your video driver software to the default settings:

AMD:
Right-click on your desktop and select Catalyst Control Center or AMD Radeon Settings.
In the upper-right corner of the window, select Preferences.
Select Restore Factory Defaults.

Intel:
Right-click on your desktop and select Graphics Properties.
Click 3D.
Click Restore Defaults.

Nvidia:
Right-click on your desktop and select Nvidia Control Panel.
Click Manage 3D Settings.
In the upper-right corner, click Restore Defaults.

• Set Windows power settings to High Performance:

1. Press Windows + R, type “powercfg.cpl” into the Run window, and then press Enter.
2. Select the radio button next to the High performance power plan. You may need to click Show additional plans first.

• Clean boot Windows to reduce startup applications: Follow the instructions at How to perform a clean boot in Windows. Clean booting into Windows prevents any unnecessary programs or services from starting up, and can help narrow down the cause of your issues. If you continue to have trouble after performing a clean boot, it’s safe to assume that background programs and services aren’t the root cause, and you can go back to your normal startup.

• Refresh Credentials:

1. From the Start menu, begin typing ‘cmd’.
2. In the results that populate, right-click the Command Prompt result and select Run as administrator.
3. Type ipconfig /flushdns and press Enter. Wait a few seconds and when the command prompt appears, proceed to the next step.
4. Type ipconfig /registerdns and press Enter.
5. Type ipconfig /release and press Enter.
6. Type ipconfig /renew and press Enter.
7. Type netsh winsock reset and press Enter.

• Toggling IPv6:

1. From the Start/Windows Menu, select Settings.
2. Select Network and Internet.
3. In the Status section, under Change your network settings, select Change adapter options.
4. When the Network Connections window opens, right-click your network connection.
5. Select Properties. Scroll to Internet Protocol version 6.
6. Uncheck the Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6) box.
7. Select OK to save your changes for the selected network adapter.
8. Try launching the game again. A PC restart may be necessary.

• Shut down the computer completely. Turn it on, then run the Steam client as administrator and try the game again.

If steps above didn’t help please re-install the game and try again.

Thank you in Advance.
