Same here guys.... :(

For the past few days, my game has been crashing on maps, especially on large packs when there's a lot happening. The issue is that on my end, the screen goes black, and I lose control. I'm forced to hard reset my PC.

I've tried everything. I've reinstalled previous drivers, checked the integrity of the game files, run a full stress test on my hard drives and GPU, checked my network, and reinstalled the game. I thought playing on low settings might be a solution, but the problem persists.

It seems to be inconsistent; yesterday, I played for 3 hours without any crashes, but now I've crashed on 5 consecutive maps. The game freezes, the screen goes black (the PC keeps running), and I lose control completely, requiring a hard reset.

I'm completely baffled. Since I started playing Path of Exile, I've never had this issue before, except for occasional crashes that didn't force me to reboot my PC the hard way.

This is gonna be a fun one to debug (no requirements in order to reproduce.) Dump files have already been sent.

This is some super ptsd , reminds me of the horrible game called D4 , especially when it was suppppppper bugged with crashes/delay.

lol im just kidding, you know that PoE did this on purpose right? they do look up to Diablo after all.

Any staff taking note of this and/or responding? Tried reinstalling graphics drivers with DDU, turning off any overlays, running barebones with minimal background programs and still no luck.

Temps are within reasonable range running GTX 1660 / Ryzen 5 1600x

These crashes happen so much even when there's minimal noise on screen, frankly its putting me off playing so much wasting a div on map supplies and losing all portals due to crashes...

Ordered a USB so that I can update my bios, I don't think it will do anything but I tried about everything else there is to try, GGG needs to come with some kind of fix the game feels more like a punishment to play than a game atm.

Haven't crashed yet today, so I think it's either the most recent patch being good, or Vulkan working better as I started retrying Vulkan after it was suggested, it's not optimal performance yet sometimes there seems to be a bit of high latency but it does feel much more playable with the client not randomly crashing at least as much as it did yesterday / before, I might be speaking too soon however so I will come back to the forum to share whether I end up crashing anyway or if it actually, for now, is better.

I'm glad it's working better for you now. I'm one of the people earlier in the thread who suggested Vulkan -- and now after the patch some hours ago I am crashing in Vulkan when I wasn't before, lmao, I'm about to give up.
