Cyberpunk 2077 is a joke !
I installed it 2 weeks ago on my PC and so far, it crashed 147 times!!!
The most frequent crashes are :
- internal kraken decompression error
- EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION: the thread attempted to write to an inaccessible address
I must say that it shows how sloppy some developers are when errors such as EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION happen so frequently (well, the game is mind blowing, but still: it still has some major memory management problems).
I've played many games and none crashed before or very few times...
I have an i9-13900K, with Asus Maximus z790 Hero, Gskill DDR5 7600MHz and RTX 3090 24 GB VRAM
I checked pretty much every post thread about "Cyberpunk flatlined) and did everything:
- It's up to date with 1.63: I bought it on GOG and started playing after 1.63 was released
- No XMP overclock, running at base speed (4800 MHz)
- No unnecessary app running
- GPU and all Drivers and BIOS up to date (latest released versions of all)
- Tried to run Cyberpunk with and without mods installed. All mods up to date
- Restart PC when it crashes too many times in a row
- Disabled nahimic service (known to generate crashes in some games)
- Disabled NVIDIA Geforce experience overlay
- Run the Verify/Repair install
Then when I launch it :
- It crashes 2 or 3 times upon startup, then finally decides to start
- If I launch a new game, it start fine, but crashes a lot
- If I try to load a saved game : it almost systematically crashes several times if I load the latest saved game, or one in the list of previously saved games.
- At some point, maybe after 5 or 6 tries, it finally decides to start
- I can play for a couple of minutes, and it crashes again
- Sometimes, maybe thanks to a divine intervention, I can play! Those are the times when I can get to play the game (I'm now about 2/3rd of the main story in)
Example today :
- I've been trying to play for almost 1hr : crashes upon startup 3 times, then I tried to launch a saved game about 25 times... it crashes right away almost every time, except 2 times where I could play for about 1 minutes before it crashes
How can it be of such a poor quality even if the game was released 2 or 3 years ago :(
To be honest, it is really cool... when it finally works... But quite frankly, I won't buy Phantom Liberty, it's not fun to spend 1 to 1.5 hours almost each time to get the game to start... and be frightened about corrupted saved games... and the risk of having to restart it from scratch... until maybe I'd have to restart it from scratch again because of corrupted saved games...
