ClockworkSpectre Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 (edited) I started playing this game again after an absence about a month ago. I have been having this issue since I started playing again. I decided to wait until U14 dropped to see if the problem persisted and it has happened twice since friday. Occasionally the game freezes up so bad that I even if I ctrl alt delete to kill the game in task manager, that does even work. It requires a hard reboot using the power button on my PC. It usually occurs during the loading screen but also has happened in mission. I was curious to see if this was an issue anyone else was having before I looked at it being my hardware or something. I doubt it is my hardware because I only have this issue with this game alone. Edited July 21, 2014 by ClockworkSpectre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avyiel7 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 I played U14 on 3 different machines so far. ALL three froze at some point. I didn't have to Task Manager kill it, but all times the game would freeze, I'd still hear music and then it would act like as if it was a pause screen without the pause. BTW, I ran on an i7 OC, a old Dual Core chip and a FX8350 oc. Dual Core with an old Radeon HD 4300,the i7 with a HD 6670 and the 8350 with a Radeon HD 7970 OC. Which means, it's not really on the hardware Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baysick Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 I agree, it's not hardware, I ran it on 2 different rigs Laptop: i7 3630QM @ 3.2Ghz GTX 670MX 12GB ram Win8 pre u14: 120fps~ Post u14: 60fps with hiccups and freezes Desktop: i7 4770K @ 4.2Ghz 2x GTX 780 ti 16GB ram Win8.1 preu14: 200Fps~ Postu14: 80-90fps with freezes and stutters It's the engine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClockworkSpectre Posted July 21, 2014 Author Share Posted July 21, 2014 (edited) While yes, I have experienced an overall drop in FPS with U14 and occasional momentary freezes, thats not exactly the problem i was referring to. I am talking about the game freezing and effectively locking up my whole PC, requiring a power down via the power button. I am able to start the task manager by ctrl alt delete, but my screen is black and it wont even show up so I can hit the end task button. I play in full screen mode as well, if that is relevant.
