I think the biggest problem *Ambient Occulusion* turn off HBAO+ and SSAO -little to reduce the problem until it reaches a new patch 1.05 and new amd driver 14.5
Having the same problem here with r9 285. Tried a multitude of things, no luck. Been updating regularly and still crashes in combat. At this point I can't continue with the game, because I can't get past a key-battle without the game crashing. Really disappointing. What now?
Yah other users have problems too but the frustrating part here is ours is repeatable and its something specific that does it...every one of has same exact problem to the letter. Thats why we are probably more annoyed because it seems like 5 mins of testing this on a 285 would have shown CDPR the issue exists. Alas it will get fixed just Im impatient
Have you tried disabling one of your cards? I have 2 290x's and the game doesn't support crossfire so I just use one and get about 40-50 Fps on Ultra.
Dear god, people like you are the worst you get one thing wrong then its OMG this brand is garbage, shit happens dude. 285 is about the only card I have heard problems from AMD, while any Nvidia card is pretty much unplayable....Guess your going intel
sorry bro, was just trying to help him, doesn't appear to be any fixes for the 285 either...Probably just have to wait til 1.05 or AMD to put out a patch
I highly doubt that it will be CDPR who solve the problem. AMD will.
This is so frustrating now, the game is completely unplayable in its current state on a R9 285 card. I know they have acknowledged it on twitter, but perhaps a forum post recognising the issues we are having and giving a little bit of info on how the fix is progressing wouldn't go amiss. Even if they just say they and AMD are aware of the issue and are working on a fix that would be enough; the silence really worries me, it screams "WE DON'T HAVE A CLUE WHAT IS HAPPENING!" and fills me with dread.
well hopefully we will get a driver/patch soon sense the problem was found and reported during the weekend so AMD for one could do anything (they are stationed in the USA and on the weekend they don't work) so this will most likely get fixed this week but the most important thing is to spam them so they no this is a big issue
AMD has been working on their new driver on the weekend too, according to Roy:

Don't know how true is that.

Honestly, I think im going to bite the bullet and buy a 290 or better yet a 970. Ive been relatively happy with AMD cards but honestly I think it would be faster for me just to bite the bullet and upgrade instead of waiting for a fix.
Hopefully CDPR does something about this because even though I feel as though this is more on AMD, I think it hurts them the most.

Seems risky to drop that much money on a new card for a week-old game that is crashing across all platforms. Obviously our 285 issue is not to be taken lightly, but at least it's reproducible and hopefully caused by something specific. Look around the forums and you'll see threads like:
http://forums.cdprojektred.com/thre...5-Minutes-of-Playing-nVidia-GTX-970?p=1673553 and http://forums.cdprojektred.com/threads/36678-Crash-To-Desktop-No-error-messages-(FX-8350-GTX-970) and others where it's people randomly crashing with no specific action and no particular piece of hardware they can tie it to.
R9 285 is a good card. Are you going to buy a new card just because you can't wait a week or two for the game to be fixed?
Just to post it here aswell. Have that kinda freeze/crash bug since the release. Almost excusively happens midway thru animation in combat, where music keeps playing but game freezes for a few seconds and then goes to desktop, where i need to shut down non responding process thru task manager. Also tried varius graphic options, frame locks, fullscreen/windowed etc. etc. etc. Same error.
Too bad since I am soo eager to play this. What i seen of the game is awesome
i7 4790
8GB ram
R9 200 series GPU with 2gb ram
I tried both 14,4 and 15.4 drivers same error with freeze and crash
Windows 7
