Hello guys,

over the internet i found multiple threads about random crashes or destroyed save files. So here is my question do you, did you encounter something or is it usually just me who get this too?

It started at chapter 6 i played then random crashed to the title screen, after closing the trainer and start a gain, i lost all my weapons only have the revolver left.
Then things got really messy, at the beginning of chapter 7 had the same experience but now my game crashes complete. So iam stuck now at the end of chapter 7. Cant play further.

Hope someone have the same experience so iam not alone Dont know its because of the trainer or its buggy with my system.

greets

Hello,

I think that for me it is the similar the game crashes from the chapter 6, why? Somebody in the same problem? ...

I tried several times and it is the same thing(matter).


Help me please .


PGWD33.

yeah befor chapter 6 everything worked perfect but at this part of the game the problems start.

Maybe if someone can share his savegame from Chapter 6 for you and chapter 7/8 for me, would be really great, maybe there is only a bug in the savegames.

I know not so it is a bug of the protections(savings) but in any case for me the game(set,play) stops in the chapter 6, maybe that it is going to have an update of it there .

I was having crash after crash on Chapter 2, even at the final cut scene.
I finally got through it by using the trainer to run past everything..
Hasn't crashed yet on Chapter 3 with 30 minutes of playtime.

Surely my GTX980 could handle the game...

Same problem as esschallert. End of ch6 is a bummer. I'm glad to know I ain't the only one. Does anyone have a saved game (glitch free) with all chapters unlocked?

You should of seen what some tool over on the STEAM forums sadi about the crashing.
Basically that its crashing because we fail to keep our computer's clean/update and are running specs of a glorified toaster.

My polite responce was to point out my specs (4790k, GTX980, 16GB ram yadda yadda)and that the game is still crashing on 3 clean installs of Windows (I tried on Win 7 and 8.1 and 10 preview all crashed on Chapter 2.)

This was ignored and his rant continued because his runs perfectly, I call BS because this game DOESN'T run perfectly on any machine, which has been tested in detail on many other sites.
Other than the texture popins you really couldn't tell it was done on ID Tech 5 engine, they have really screwed the pooch with this game.

yeah, i really want to enjoy the game, but when it crashes out of the blue, and you loose you progress, its like getting punched in the face. Though over time i guess you just wind up being another domestic abuse case, telling yourself everything will get better over time.
