POE 2 Complete PC Freeze while loading screen

I am absolutely baffled that some random dude in forums with no affiliation to GGG cares more than GGG themselves AND pushes a decent fix for an issue that actually causes harm to whoever plays GGG's Path of Exile 2.

[Removed by Support]

The sad thing is Microsoft detects this fix as a trojan (probably false and certainly less harmful than running PoE2 even if it is) making people unsure about that but the thing is people should never be downloading a third party fix for a >30$ game.

Furthermore, I ask anyone who sees this message to please give a negative review for Path of Exile 2 on Steam.

Support cannot put a single warning message, cannot communicate about this issue but apparently can censor simple thanks to the maker of the PoEUncrasher.

Thank you, You-Know-Who-You-Are.

I have tried all of the workarounds in the thread, the only ones that have functioned so far for me are the following:

"Realtime method":
1. Start Game
2. Set CPU Affinity (untick 0, 1 or w/e so you have breathing room)
3. Upon entering a 'freezing state' i.e. the infinite load, set the process priority to real-time for a few seconds, and set it back to normal after it clears.

"Multithread method":
1. Disable multithreading and suffer the unplayable framerate.

An interesting thing to note:
If the process is suspended (all threads suspended) and resumed after a period of time during the freezing state, you will be disconnected from the game and thrown back into the main menu, avoiding crashing. Though I don't recommend this.

It is odd that setting priority to real-time resolves this problem, but I'll take it rather than crashing again.

Hopefully this gets fixed soon.

Imagine paying money and get nothing, when some random dude make a working workaround for free. Simply disgusting. Who we are, 225 pages here and dozens on steam vs million buyers.

If you haven't already please take your time to give a negative review for Path of Exile 2 on Steam.

It will only take 1 minute of your life, which is far less than this game has taken by crashing over and over again.

why? Its a good game and its early acces. give it time or write a ticket for a refund(if thats possible).

I don't remember when I last time experienced PC crashes in a game, early access or not. And all critical bugs developers fixed pretty fast, here you get nothing for two weeks, when the game potentially do damage to your pc. Don't try to justify that.

So "for now" here is the "fix" according to Pirate software and shroud. I haven't had any crashes/freezing but the stutters are still there nothing well fix that with the memory leaks in game confirmed by Ziz. Enable vulkan and turn shadows to high, 8x anisotropic filtering, no upscaling NIS. When the game launches go task manager details and set POE affinity cores and uncheck 0-1. Also select your gpu instead of auto for physx in the nvidia control pannel. I haven't froze all week since this fix but at the cost of my games visuals and performance. 4080s/7800x3d/24H2 windows 11. 70-100fps 3440x1440 all other settings maxed.

I had freezes after the last update, they were constantly there, especially at the time of using skills, as well as the game crashes to the desktop (they were from the very beginning), I did not have to restart the computer. I did what was written, as well as this phrase "the memory leaks in game confirmed by Ziz" led me to think about the "swap file" (!) increasing the swap file in my case solved the problem!
I removed both friezes and departures.

Thank you for sharing this information!

Since i cant play poe2 , I decided to maybe play some poe 1. And guess what, the same happen in poe 1. Full pc crash during loading location.

I do updates manually for windows I'm using 23H2 and this crap happened to me. So that's not the only reason.

Hey everyone, it's me again – the guy whose HX750 power supply recently fried after four years of use. Fortunately, nothing else was damaged. After replacing the PSU, I decided to run some temperature tests to see how my system was handling things. Here are my results:

Idle CPU Temperatures:

CPU Temperatures in Various Games (Main Menu & In-Game):

CPU Temperature in POE2 (Main Menu):

The results speak for themselves: POE2 is pushing CPU temps to concerning levels, even when you're just in the main menu. If this is what happens during early access, there's a real risk it could damage people's hardware.

I rest my case. POE2 isn't ready for early access — not until these issues are addressed.

It just happened to me 5 times in a row...

This is happening to me so much that I'm about to throw in the towel. It's crashing on the character select screen now. I have no idea what's going on but so many people like myself cannot stop crashing.
