GEEZ! Day one patch PLEASE!

+
Everything was working perfectly fine until I installed the expansion. Now everything I touch causes the game to crash. No mods! Updated drivers! WTH?! It's fun but restarting the game every 5-10 minutes is ENRAGING! Hard to think stealth and tactical when you're scared to pick up drops, talk to vendors, enter cars, all the president to snuff someone . . . GEEZ! Please tell me you have a remedy to this madness! I'm sure you've gotten a crap load of bug reports through just my Steam account.
 
same here - but thru GOG.

Worst thing is: before the DLC i played HOURS without any bug or crash, now the game crashes every 5-6 minutes. Not really enjoyable gameplay.
 
I had few similar encounters after 2.0 but now everything seems fine except the dog town lag, have zero FPS on my series x :D
 
Has either one of you verified the game files through your respective platforms?

Steam

GOG Galaxy
Steam. 217 files verified. It only crashes in NPC encounters/transitions (after visiting vendors & rippers, talking to Johnny or the president), and picking up anything other than shards, ammo, and operating in-game laptops and computer terminals.

I thought it would get better once I left Dog Town. It crashed on the Muamar car retrieval when I got out of the car in the garage. Then when restarting, the V and the car shot to the other side of the street, had to load an autosave (pun not intended LOL),

I go to a drop point to sell weapons in Arroyo, it crashed again. I fast travel back to Atrium: building 10, I go to sell at the 2nd Amendment exiting the menu, and it crashed again. I'm reinstalling the entire game right now (just to eliminate speculation). I'm so pissed off that CDPR keeps dropping the ball on product releases. I enjoy make-up sex like anyone else, but this is like dealing with a girlfriend who sabotages the relationship because she likes make-up sex more than NORMAL I'm trying to tell myself that they are doing this because they're trying to get a read on how users play the game (through bug reports). But, this is annoying if this is actually what's going on. This is SERIOUSLY making me question spending money on ANY other of their IPs, (current and/or future).

Nope! Even after a fresh install, meaning uninstall and deleting the remnant folder, downloading it over again, and trying a mission unrelated to Dog Town, it crashed again. . . . Sigh. . .

Same here. I've tried every "fix" I can think of and find by search. Nothing works. I can play for an average of about 15 mins then the game crashes back to windows.

As i browsed thru the forum more and more people report this issue - hope a fix comes fast, because the game and story is still really good :S

tempory fix , that's work
i've done this after this few crash the first day i tryed the game patch 2.0

go on windows power plant management
create a new profil ( template model recommanded profil )
then modify this new custom profil , go on CPU max usage limit , change it to 99%

that's avoid any most of crash at launch and crash after 1h ..
the cons ,
your cpu clock speed won't get highter at it base frequency
i recommanded to check yout temp cpu after the fix, and lower some setting graphics ( first ndvia reflex , .., RT feature , crow density )

their new idea of use 80% of each core , its quite broken
isn't up to 80% usage , its stuck at 80% even you change any setting graphics

if you having crash , thanks windows with their new safety guard for strange behiavor on the hardware .

when you see on your data , without doing nothing , CPU usage go to stuck 100% with only the screen logo lol
this new patch 2.0 , without any fix , even you change your setting to low , cpu always on boost , GPU almost always on boost ..
always max watts , max volts

first time have see this on a AAA game .

one side , i feel happy with some new feature
on other side get very sad and "mad" to see the state of the game , is not omptimzed , buggy , unpolish on new feature
i wat some more few days to see if there's any official response about all those issues , is not i just go to 1.63 ..
and for the dlc xD ... i'll wait when they finish to fix it :)
 
Yeah, apparently, 1.63 save files are forbidden. I said screw it and started a new game from the Phantom Liberty stage of the story. Progression is phenomenal! Even though I'd like to play it with my old Vs, I'm not disappointed about how this playthrough is going. I'm still dreading, even with the new character to go into Dog Town due to the fear that the bug may still be there, but I'm hopeful. I'm probably going to take the dive into it tomorrow. I want to fight the Chimera with air dashes again at the lower level, just to see if it's more challenging.
 
we need patch and fast but devs are very slow its not Baldur's gate 3 where devs fixed 1000 bugs in first patch
 
SOLUTION: Settings >> Gameplay >> Miscellaneous >> Disable cross-platform saves
I can hardly believe it... This actually seems to have fixed my issues. Played for a few hours today without any crashes.
Will update if this changes.
Edit: Played around 6 hours today. No crashes. Disabling cross-platform saves indeed seems to have solved the issue for me.

It's usually best to send a ticket to CDPR support:
(please click on "contact us" to send a ticket)

I only had one crash in 10 hours (with cross-platform on), so hard to say what exactly triggers this problem)

CDPR is not Larian unfortunately.
the rest of gaming companies should take notice from Larian.
How to make a good game and how to fix issues after release.

Ho Lee Sheet - it looks like it solved my problem, but will test it now (for a while hopefully :D )

Thanks m8!


edit: yeah, it really looks like it solved my issues: 2+ hours played yesterday, not a single crash!

Very interesting! I just turned it off, I'm definitely going to test this theory! I'm not using multiple platforms anyway. If this is all it takes to prevent the crashing issue, they need to boost your forum rank! I'd trade mine for yours if it's that simple of a fix!
