The hard crash bug that locks up the entire OS and requires manual shutdown by pressing the power button has been around for more than 2 months.

There is still not a fix in sight...

GGG is still blaming Windows 11 24H2 for it despite the fact that we are having this issue on Windows 10 too... (and Windows 11 23H2, and Linux...)

Once again I'm bumping with these questions, in hopes that maybe they will get answered by GGG's official staff:

1) What went wrong?

2) What you are doing to fix it?

3) What possible causes have you eliminated as the source of the problem?

4) What triggers have you discovered that starts the resource hog loop other than "zone change"? (This one is really important because it allows players to create workarounds)

5) What is your estimated time of fix?

6) How did this sort of bug managed to avoid detection in your testing period?

7) What you will be doing to compensate players that have been affected by this issue?

8) Whether refunds would be made available for those that are no longer interested in playing the game?

To other paying customers like me who have spent their money on this faulty product:

As long as GGG is not interested in open communication our only other option is to increase the pressure and warn others by giving a negative review for Path of Exile 2 on Steam in a detailed and informative manner.

[Removed by Support] They've fixed the issue for some people, again with the entitlement in this thread, it isnt fixed for you personally so they've done nothing right?

As I responded to you pages and pages ago when you begging everybody to review bomb the game, this issue is obviously multiple different issues that are appearing the same, it is not an easy fix, be happy they've "fixed" the Win11 24H2, we can keep posting in this thread to say the issue isnt resolved for us but it is resolved for some people so why is this them lying? (Again entitlement because it hasnt fixed your specific problem so the company are lying?)

Please can you stop spreading lies, I said it in the other thread to somebody else, when they patch they communicate and update threads, To make such a bold claim that GGG dont care when we are paying customers is laughable at best, they clearly care otherwise they wouldnt of been working on a potential fix which has worked for some and not for others. Its early access and a computer game, your life doesnt revolve around it so you dont need to get this invested, 100+ posts of "YOU MUST REVIEW BOMB THEM"..... painful

Yeah, I'm recently experiencing this on windows 10. I made a detailed post about my issue. I don't want to hard crash my system anymore. I'll wait on playing until I hear about this being acknowledged and fixed.

(It will be backported to PoE 1 when that receives a client patch).

I don't get who makes such decisions.
So PoE 1 people will have to wait more weeks/months until it gets deployed for them....

Computer is getting slower every hard freeze.

Im worried this is the case to. do you have something concrete to back this up with?

do you know of a good benchmark tool to evaluate against similar systems?

The whole thing still sounds very, very strange to me.

Somehow something was apparently fixed, which apparently actually fixed the hard freeze problem for some people. Other people are still having problems - and there are still recent reports of hardware damage after such a freeze.

For me, as a non-PC expert, this is all completely incomprehensible and I would really appreciate it if GGG would address a few understandable words to the average consumer. To be honest, I stopped playing PoE 2 just before Christmas because I'm actually a bit scared that my PC, which is only 6 months old, will be damaged by such a hard freeze.

I honestly don't dare start the game again at the moment.

They have already addressed it, and have deployed a fix which fixed the issue for a significant chunk of players, now it's up to you on what you want to believe.

The worst of these is a full system freeze that has occurred since Windows 11’s 24H2 update. We still don’t know exactly what caused this problem, but we have deployed a workaround that seems to be preventing the freeze. We are working with Microsoft to find a better long term solution.

Debilo 4 runs smooth on my PC on 144 fps. PoE 2 runs at 10fps, fix the performance plz, we can't lose to D4 bad

Just had a full freeze issue again today when trying to enter a newly opened map portal.

GGG does not want to accept that it is their own engine that is causing the problem. The PoE2's code is triggering something on ALL operating systems. Their supposed fix is most probably an internal workaround that dodges the issue and only works for Windows 11 24H2, which is why GGG is so adamant this is a Windows 11 24H2 issue, because they cannot fix it for other operating systems with that method. The other alternative is debugging their code from the start which they for some reason do not want to do. I even wonder if they cannot because the one who actually wrote the code is no longer working with GGG... So their plan is to claim this is a Windows 11 24H2 issue and ignore the rest of the OSs.

They claim that the issue is potentially fixed for Windows 11 24H2, but we'll never know since there is not that many players left playing the game among those who are experienced the issue.

There is also the fact that Microsoft have not backed GGG's claim of working with Microsoft to find a better long term solution. They had made an announcement for the case with the Ubisoft, but not with the GGG... So GGG's claim is suspicious.

What we know is that issue continues for many others.

So once again I'm bumping with these questions, in hopes that maybe they will get answered by GGG's official staff:

1) What went wrong?

2) What you are doing to fix it?

3) What possible causes have you eliminated as the source of the problem?

4) What triggers have you discovered that starts the resource hog loop other than "zone change"? (This one is really important because it allows players to create workarounds)

5) What is your estimated time of fix?

6) How did this sort of bug managed to avoid detection in your testing period?

7) What you will be doing to compensate players that have been affected by this issue?

8) Whether refunds would be made available for those that are no longer interested in playing the game?
