Community Admin@mbrogz3000 @itsTylerkun Hey, can I check if playing offline has any effect for you, as @3DiE9djua2 suggests?
Do you experience a degradation of performance, even a little one, just before the crash? If you monitor component usage or temperature, do you get a spike before this happens?
@mbrogz3000 For your strange initial startup issue, can I check if you use more than one monitor? Does changing your primary monitor have any effect?
@amkingchar I suspect your base issue is a different one. Do you have more than 1 Hard Drive? If so, can you try reinstalling the game to a different drive? From what I've seen needing a 20GB repair is not expected behaviour, I just ran a repair of my copy and it just did a scan, no repair needed.
You may want to also try a Clean Boot and try temporarily disabling your security software when repairing Origin, it sounds like something is preventing the game data from being written properly.
Yes am running on 2 drives but I have everything that I need on the 1 drive everything that has to do with Origin and games or what ever but is still weird
I was able to play the game on the release played it over 22h and somehow it started doing this behavior.
Either way I'll change my driver soon and make a clean reboot
And I'll see what happens hopefully once the other driver is on everything will come back to the normal state
I still don't understand why every other game on the same driver is playing fine and this specific game is not. !
