Game shuts down the PC?
SO I have been playing beta for months, no major issues (except some minor issues)
I bought the full game, put it on and under 1 minute into the first mission game shutsdown my PC?
No other game does that and its a three month old gaming rig.
Anyone else experienced weird BSODs etc?

Nope.

Runs fine, same as the beta.

Weird.

Here the same in the second scenario keep crashing all the time but no computer shut down luckily. Beta was running fine.

I can't even get the game to run. Click on play and it clicks and then returns to the normal workbench screen. Oddly it will allow me to open and run the editor.
My PC is well over specs. I've scanned the HD for errors and found none. I also allowed AVC virus scan to allow PZ2.
I am lost for any other thing to do.

Hi,

Have you tried limiting your frame rate in the GFX options in game? It could be that the game is over-stressing your system by rendering a very high number of frames?

I can't get past the first screen and it shows no options at all.

I have just run a test. Limited the fps to 60 and went down to medium details in 1080p (I run gtx1080ti)

I have noticed artifacts once the rain animation started and the game froze. Could that be an issue? Noticed in beta that rain animation was extremely tanky...

If the problem is with rain animation, then maybe it will help to turn it off? There is an option for this in Display/UI. And indeed, rain animation was added recently, so this might explain why it all was fine before.

Just an update - weather effects ticks automatically back on after leaving options. Tried restarting the game as well.

Moving clouds unticks fine but weather effects always comes back on.

Would anyone be able to test if that is the case for them as well?

If by "shuts down", you mean that the system actually powers itself off, then it is a heat related issue, as your system will "shut off" on its own, to save itself from damage, if it gets too hot.

If that is the case try cleaning the fans and make sure you have good airflow.


edit to add: graphic glitches and power offs could mean that your graphics card may be damaged as well.

Just to verify for you, "weather effects" will check back on, for me as well and changing "clouds" keeps the change.

Hardware is not overheating, updated nvidia drivers, bios and reinstalled the game. Works fine on my other rig.
Any chance this is something to do with new AMD Ryzen CPUs?

I have recently installed DLC PC2 1940 . Got to Sedan and now wont load scenario due to

LowLevelFatalError [File:Unknown] [Line: 198] Unreal Engine is exiting due to D3D device being lost. (Error: 0x887A0006 - 'HUNG')

I dont see any resolution from the above , anyone advise how they fixed it ?

Hi, I suddenly have the same problem. I tried to switch off the weather animation but the problem still occurs. I never had any problem with the game but now I can't even play it. Any ideas about how to solve the problem? Thanks :)

The same for me. I did eveything reintall the game. Closed On board display from bios. Even reinstalled the Nvidia dirivers.
Nothing changed. I cant play it now.
