Been happening since launch with zero achlowedgment from GGG.

Blow this issue up, force them to address it.

GGG has had well over a decade to toss their failed engine and license one that actually works.

1/24/26- I swapped it to vulcan and for now it seems to have stopped causing the freezing and such. Its not always smooth in vulcan. no crashes but stuttering and lag at times. frames are a lot more unstable but i don't freeze. It feels like when i uncheck engine multithreading in dx12 but a bit smoother.
