If I open my map and click on anything, scroll to another monitor or do literally anything but close map it hard locks my game and i have to restart my PC. Game will not even close with task manager.

this was during a coop game and i was not the host so let me know if this works

@tiny arch any updates or fixes for this?

copper willow
#

32GB RAM, 26s loading time, seems fine on that front.

Your GPU drivers are however outdated by a year or so.

here ya go. still same issue with everything updated. If i open my map its a 50/50 on whether its gonna completely lock up my game. Also my CPU is running almost 99% while running bellwright with everything else possible closed @tiny arch @copper willow

Having either the cpu or the gpu running at 100% is to be expected with any game unless your framelimit below the maximum framerate you can achieve in said game. Your computer will try to output as many frame as possible until one of your component becomes the bottleneck

No antivirus software running at I have fps capped at 60 which should be no problem

rapid grotto
#

Also my gpu is running at about 20% so cpu should Not be trying to take over

#

something is causing the game to try to run off the CPU instead of GPU im now watching it and CPU is pegged and GPU in sitting at 0-1%

copper willow
#

That CPU usage is normal since you have a decade old low-end quad-core CPU that is just around minimum required.
As bad as RTX 3050 is in general, it is still going to be bottle-necked by that CPU on average.

I do not see anything obvious in the log files, so this can be caused by anything, the game as well as external factors.

#

it can often show up as compute instead of 3d

#

I can 100% guarantee you your gpu is not at 0% otherwise you would not even get 1 fps

10-4 guess I’ll go buy a new pc up to date and see what happens. Haven’t had any issues with any games to date but understand there’s a lot going on in this one and it EA so not to concerned. Ty for the feedback

Updating your cpu will definetely not hurt. This issue has been for the moment specific to older hardware. this require further investigation , so sadly there won't be a fix for it in the near future.

All good just bought a new pc. Will update next week if problems persist.
I have found that if I use the map and then wait sometime to reopen it it seems to not freeze as often

rapid grotto
#

@copper willow thought maybe these pc specs might meet your standards for acceptable. still get the occasional lock up while opening the map. not as frequent but still a bug....

copper willow
#

Again, that CPU usage had nothing to do with your lockups and I've already explained why that usage is normal in modern games on older hardware.

I also mentioned:

I do not see anything obvious in the log files, so this can be caused by anything, the game as well as external factors.
Which holds true for the new log.

Is this the current public build (the August Update) ?
