POE 2 Complete PC Freeze while loading screen

There are certain people in this thread (and the other one ) that love to derail the discussion by deflecting, minimizing the issue, or straight up insulting people.

1)"It is just Early Access"

It does not matter. EA bugs is things like "my skill does not work", "the game shuts down", "x node is not working", "this boss has an iffy hitbox" NOT "Game hard crashes, locking up the PC, requiring manual shutdown, possibly bricking my PC".

2)"It can't brick your PC"

It can. I explained the exact mechanisms enough times with decent clarity to the point anyone that claims otherwise is either a troll, or someone who is obstinate. Anyone that wants to double check can run my explanations through ChatGPT, ask a professor at their local university's ECE departments, or hit the books themselves.

3)"It is just a software issue but people mistake it with bricking"

This one is actually true for some cases. The problem is this game does not come with a warning that it can cause problems that require above average computer literacy. In fact my greatest issue with this problem is exactly this. If they put a simple warning up top on steam and in this forum only people that know what to do would play the game despite crashes. This way GGG could have avoided causing people to incur damages.

4)"Any damage can be fixed"

Those who say this omit the next portion which is "for a price". For some reason these type of derailers think that just because it costs something they can afford, the costs can be afforded by everyone.

Even if there were Samaritans that fixes PCs for free, the loss of time is substantial.

5)"Did you make plans around playing this game? What a loser!"

This one is really a low social intelligence take. People have responsibilities. Some people enjoy living an ordered life. Some people just want to play the game they paid for when they want.

6)"This is a Windows 11 24H2 issue"
These people are 100% trolls. No need to even spare them a glance. We all know it happens to all kind of OS.

7)"They can't fix it fast, I'm a programmer too so I know its really hard for them to fix it"

We are not telling them to fix it. We are telling them to communicate with us.

Putting a warning on steam, putting a warning on here. A post that explains what they have done until now such as "we have eliminated X as a cause, we are now looking at Y to see if that is the one that causes this."

8)"Your PC is bad."

If it is above the required specs, then PoE2 should be able to be played in that PC. Even if the PC is below the requirements, PoE2 should not be taking the whole PC down.

9)"Install these, then perform this Navajo ritual, afterwards pray to Celestial Worthy of Heaven and Earth for His blessings"

Workarounds are not fixes. People who have paid for a game should not be forced to install third party programs, or go through hoops to play said game.

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

First of all I am not your "homie". Second, I literally am on 23H2. Windows 10 and Linux on another rig. All of them are affected. Go on, tell me how the 24H2 update for Windows 11 fucks with my Windows 10. Better yet, I'm eager to hear about how it screws with my Linux distro on top.

The only thing in front of my face are people like you and other GGG apologists trying to shove this on Windows 11 entirely. Yes, 24H2 has problems, no - this isn't one of them.

Lol you need to chill buddy.

My personal experience is that I downgraded to 23H2 and have not experienced a single freeze in over a week. I think the first thing people should try is doing a clean install of 23H2 because all that CPU fiddling is pretty sus.

Anyways, I'm gonna go back to playing the game without any freezes. See you later homie

first i completely reinstalled my pc, didnt help.

i saw that my bios version was from 2019, so i upgraded my BIOS.

i no longer have PC freezes.

He just said, it doesn't work on Linux and older windows versions. It doesn't work for me either.

You're delusional. Stop thinking that your personal experience is everyone's experience.

This is not a windows problem. This is a game problem, and they don't do anything about it for weeks now. At least offer a refund for people that have this issue, but not communicating at all is a joke now. I lost my will to play this game at all, this is completely the opposite what I've expected from GGG.

Enjoy your placebo homie.

It's very simple to me. This issue only occurs for me with PoE2. Is it a problem with the latest windows update? Maybe, but by the simple process of elimination the fact that all my other programs and games work without any issue makes it rather obvious that there's some kind of incompatibility between the latest windows update and the current version of PoE2.

So if people could stop saying it's unrelated to PoE2 now that'd be great. It most definitely, 100% is.

I hate this game. Really.

I've had several crashes today during loading screens, but I saw someone recommend running "PoEUncrasher" and seems to work for me.
