Patch 2 killed the game ( for me )
Well , before the patch I have logged 80+ hours of the game . . Without an issue at all But since the patch of death I can barely log 20 minuttes before the game sends my PC into hibernation. . ...
Forum Discussion
It happens at random times , but sure enough it happens anywhere from 10 minuttes to an hour , but kicker is :
When it happens once ( maybe after an hour of play) and I keep playing it happens sooner and sooner 2nd crash after 20 minuttes of play 3rd crash after 10 minuttes and so forth, untill a point where after I reload the game it crashes when taking a step. .
I tried to tap out , played in "full windowed" , Windowed , tried to manipulate graphic settings, make user files . .
It just crashes into hibernation mode . . .

Community AdminCertainly unusual symptoms. If you try playing with 1 GPU do you get the same behaviour? If you monitor CPU usage does it spike shortly before the crash? Are there any other processes using a lot of CPU at that time?
- Approved
Ive tried to switch primary GPU , shut one of them down , Have closed all other non essential applications, etc.
Point is it happened after the 2nd patch , because I was gaming along like the happy little gamer freak i am, and after mid-december it has been damn near impossible . .- EA_David
Aye, I'm asking as most of those reporting post-patch 2 issues are related to CPU -usage, and are seeing differing symptoms. It sounds like whatever changes made in patch 2 are triggering an issue on the machine, and if that issue can be found then you should be good going forward.
You can perform a pseudo-rollback by going to Origin Games\Dragon Age Inquisition\Update and moving the Patch folder to desktop. However this comes with the very notable drawback of invalidating your saves until you update/replace the folder and might not be enough to affect your issue anyway.
It might be worth doing so, then starting a new game and using the resource monitor to check for differences.
