Early Access Bug Reports - POE 2 Complete PC Freeze while loading screen - Forum

Well,as someone with the issue only on 24h2, it seems fixed, and running about 10% better overall, the first load had the cogs lock for a good 15 seconds i thought it was crashing, but it loaded and now the loads are significantly smoother and the behavior in the performance metrics is noticeably different. it has not frozen even briefly since the initial boot since patch thanks	Posted by Xypha#3760 on Feb 5, 2025, 12:08:07 AM Quote this Post
i actually haven't been able to play the game since the last patch, crashes a few seconds after clicking play :( tried these - deleting shader cache, deleting settings, all kinds of different graphics settings (both under Vulkan and DirectX). no luck so far. it used to crash similarly before this last patch. but at least sometimes it would work.

Oh the pain, so they communicate that they have a potential fix and your annoyed that they havent released it immediately, prior you were annoyed at their 0 communication policy, like I said literally cannot win. They have clearly been working on the issue as they've been updating the patch notes and known bugs list literally every patch, are you really that insane in the mind that you require game devs of hundreds of thousands of people to keep checking in with you and letting you know that they are working on an issue they update us on periodically? Thats funny actually The game isnt completely broken though is it, a portion of the player base are unable to play without it hard crashing their system but the rest are able to play again back to point one, you are insane in the mind to expect game devs of literally hundreds of thousands of people to keep checking in with you and letting you know that you are working on an issue they update us on periodically. Back to point 1, they literally cannot win, announce new information for you "I DEMAND IT NOW"..... Give you no information whilst working in the background "WE DEMAND INFORMATION NOW". Feel free to go back through the thread and see the amount of people who have tried poeuncrasher and affinity settings and you guessed it, multithreading and they are still crashing. Entitlement at its finest, game devs ignore everything else and fix my problem because I am the most important. I am not defending GGG at all, you can see my previous posts, when people start acting stupid and start throwing their toys out the pram instead of understanding how complex an issue is then yea sure, I'll tell that person. Now remember their are hundreds of thousands of players with different systems that are all going to be impacted by this patch and your response is rush it out or dont mention it so you can complain either way HAHAHAHAHA, am done Nyek, dude you're right but they won't listen to you. QQ'ing and yelling at GGG is what they can do. They even can't read more than one page from the topic start suggesting not working methods everyday. Toxic behaviour is one of the reason why GGG gives limited amount of information because it is always lose-lose for them. legit, even as a user with crashing hourly and have reinstalled my OS 4-5 times now to see if i can fix with an alternate setting or what not. the biggest disappointment i have with poe2 is seeing the behavior of the community. the complete inability to critically think about the situation. the extreme levels of entitlement. and just general behavior. if not for my needing to check in for solutions i would preferably have never come here again after reading even 2-3 posts, from ppl going game bad cuz im bored after 200 hours to expecting every bug someone has to be the one ggg focus on and fix just for them. ive had to just close all general chat and avoid any youtube about it or it will just boil my blood with just how little ppl have thought anything through, and then you tubers rage baiting and storming it up makeing it 100 times worse. so now i don't crash, im out. gave the feedback, if ggg want more its going to be via CS cuz cbf even coming close to accidentally reading the brainrot	Posted by Xypha#3760 on Feb 5, 2025, 12:18:47 AM Quote this Post
So...one of those on 24H2 with all updates. Still using POE Uncrasher on the other monitor and keeping an eye on it. After the patch, I went in and did a LOT of zoning. Just going everywhere. POE Uncrasher didn't report one "not responding". It honestly ran like a solid game for me. No CTD either. Can't say this is the fix for everyone, but maybe take the plunge to 24H2 and give it a try. It's a fun game. I'm sure you want to play it. Meanwhile, I'm going to keep monitoring it with uncrasher. If it even does one "not responding", I'll update here. Hope people are back to having fun.

But isn't the "potential fix" supposed to be deployed later this week? I'm kinda lost, is it live or not?	Posted by Voodoomed#2672 on Feb 5, 2025, 2:05:40 AM Quote this Post

I might be jumping the gun, but the fix is looking pretty good boys.	Posted by ludough#3784 on Feb 5, 2025, 3:11:55 AM Quote this Post
I actually think the crashing is worse for me now. I can get to the character screen 1 in 5 attempts. then the cogs of death crash me again.	Posted by Genoshan#3374 on Feb 5, 2025, 4:13:20 AM Quote this Post
" Genoshan#3374 wrote: I actually think the crashing is worse for me now. I can get to the character screen 1 in 5 attempts. then the cogs of death crash me again. Crash or freeze the whole PC ? Because in this patch they potentially fixed the freezing issue which forced you to do a hard reset.
