Hi there,

I just downloaded the game and started it right away but I cannot get past the intro. As soon as I launch the game, the following error occurs:

The UE4-Ghostrunner game has crashed. Fatal error

I'm on Windows10 with all current updates and the latest NVIDIA drivers. I checked google and I found some similar issues and tried deleting the ghostrunner folder under localappdata: This didn't help.

I also tried "Verify / Repair" from within Galaxy without success.

Anyone else having this issue?

I have the same problem, I was updating my drivers, I already test the game in 3 differents machines and all have the same problems, in the first one I couldn't even start the game... If I found a solution I will post it!!
I am having the exact same issue as well. What's worse is that I had managed to play the Steam demo, but with the complete game, I just can't get past the intro. I get a UE4 Ghostrunner game is corrupted and will now close, fatal error.

Now, I don't want to sound too mad, but isn't this the exact kind of thing that should be picked up BEFORE the game is launched? It's unbelievable.
Ok. I uninstalled the game this morning and did a full download again. This fixed the issue for me. Strange enough.

I noticed that the total download size yesterday was 11GB - the new download is 12GB. So this issue might be related to the GOG problems yesterday.

Hope this fixes the issue for you too.
GOG server problems from yesterday probably downloaded corrupted files. Everybody tri to re-download. I suggest to close all fps counters too when you launch the game.
I still have problem with Fatal Error!

I am almost convinced the developers won't check these forums because, after all, why would they? The game is practically in beta. I have been playing for upwards of 6 hours now and I'm pretty sure it's crashed almost 20 times, for seemingly no reason. Just playing normally, as if nothing was amiss.

I'm insulted at the fact that this game was released in such a state, and they had the gal to charge money for it. At least be honest and put it on Early Access or something. It really is insulting.
are you guys playing with DX12 or 11? DX12 crashes randomly for me as well, DX11 is stable.
DX11 is stable for me. Works really well. Didn"t try DX12
It was more stable with DX11 last night, yes, but it randomly crashed again, for no reason.
Crashed 3 times in just about an hour, even with DX11.

Hi guys, sorry I don't rrply earlier, I download the latest drivers from NVidia (those that add compatibility for Ghostrunner) and the game fixed, also download the latest offline patch available, the game works great on NVidia but I've still got problems to run the game on my AMD card, no drivers update yet!!! A new patch is coming, should be already available on GOG Galaxy!!!

EDIT: Is already available for download!!! Hope it solve your problems!!

I'd like to ask if anyone is having the game crash a lot since the 5/12 W10 Servicing Stack update?

I don't have the GOG version, but I have been playing Ghostrunner lately, and on all prior sessions I had no crashes. A few days ago was when I picked up playing it again after taking time off to play other games. Last time I played it was a few days before this 5/12 update. At that time I fully played through the level Dharma City I'm now playing through again to go for a no death run on it. The first time I played it before that update, I died several times, but just kept playing from respawn checkpoints, and it never crashed once. As mentioned, it also never crashed anywhere prior to that point.

Now I HAVE checked to see if others are having crashes with this game, and found many saying they've been having these fatal error crashes I'm getting since the game came out well before that W10 update, which are said to be UE4 fatal errors. For some, it crashes right away and they can't even get into the game. Others say it can have these crashes at random points. Some have even said it crashes after the first boss fight, which is the level prior to Dharma City.

I've checked the crash dump files and they all say Invalid Pointer Read, and since this 5/12 Servicing Stack Update was the only major system related change since I played it with never having any crashes, I am wondering if it's the culprit. So please let me know if you've had any fatal error crashes (or more frequent ones) since this 5/12 W10 update, especially UE4 crashes? I'd also like to know if anyone has an easy fix for this meantime, as this update, unlike most W10 updates, cannot be uninstalled.

My spec...
W10 64
8700K
GTX 1080 SC,
16GB Vengeance LPX
No OCs

BTW, I have tried updating to the latest Nvidia driver, and also completely reinstalled the game.

Seems this may have only been a problem with the Dharma City level (I hope). I just played through the next two levels after it and I didn't get a single crash.
this is the reply of 505 games

Can you please try limiting your frame rate to 60 and turning on vsync? in my case it work´s
