Game crashing constantly

[Sixth Dimension]

I have tried all three story lines. The game runs fine for me until a certain point. I read another thread and thought it was just the street kid mission that I kept trying. Nomad got me the farthest so far.

Nomad: After montage sequence and you are in a parking garage in a car.

Streetkid: As soon as you leave the bar.

Corporate: When you sit in Jenkin's chair.

I've tried all different graphic settings. Checked file integrity. Updated video drives and Windows10.

Yep same main suspect is related to lack of AVX Instruction Set support in some processors.

I hope this is not the main reason :)) even i9 cpu crashes, I really hope its just the game, we just have to wait for a patch update or else refund

Same issue :(

For Win7, I got a bit further into the game by running both the launcher and game exe in compatibility mode for Win7 and tagging the run as an Administrator checkbox. It's still buggy and unstable, but I went from crashing almost immediately in the Streetkid start to being able to get to the parking garage where you're supposed to meet the loanshark's guy to steal the car.

I know that's not much help with later versions of Windows, but maybe try the equivalent and report back if it helps?

Crashing for me too and at this moment precisely. I did not try the two other story lines so far. Meeting requirements, also running latest GPU drivers, but with Windows 7.

After sifting through a few threads and seeing all those users with different builds, conclusion seems to be that we're unfortunately stuck waiting for a patch to fix these issues.

One of their suggestions for crashes is to download DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller), be aware that you absolutely 100% require your windows 10 username and password (NOT your online one that you login to windows with every day, the one you set windows up with originally). If you don't have this, you will get stuck in a safe mode reboot loop that you can't get out of without a Windows 10 USB/CD. Make sure you download the Windows 10 USB before doing this.

If you have an old processor like me (I7 X980) that does not have AVX, your game will crash when you sit on the chair, or you exit the bar or after the cutscene.
I was able to download the Intel SDE and run the game to test it and it works, the problem is the FPS are too low to play it.

The SDE you can find it at
https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/articles/pre-release-license-agreement-for-intel-software-development-emulator-accept-end-user-license-agreement-and-download.html
To run it unzip it your game x64 folder, mine is on.
G:\GOG games\Cyberpunk 2077\bin\x64

----->DO NOT overwrite dbghelp.dll,<-----

When is copied, open CMD with admin, and go to the folder x64(cd folder name) when you are there type SDE -- cyberpunk.exe.
Open the task manager to monitor the application loading it will take around 4 minutes to display any image and the load of the save in my case took 2 minutes the average frame rate is around 20.
This is not a solution is just a bad work around but if this is the case the game will run.

I'm having the same problem. Just commenting to keep an eye on this thread

[AgentGreen]

I'm having the same problem

[FireHawk]

Same issue.

[Draptor]

I hope they will patch the game instructions, then. Too many processors fit technical requirements but apparently can't read those instructions. Will refund if it won't be fixed, since the game cannot be played.

[MeduMegu]

I'm having the same issue.

Using: Intel Xeon X5650 & AMD RX580

I think the problem is my processor doesn't have AVX.
Same problem occured to me with Horizon Zero Dawn.

Okay I found a fix for those crashing during tutorial but only for NOMAD lifepath. Found it in the forums.

1. Start with Nomad game, when it crashes after the Iguana scene let it so it will save a black screen on the load file.
2. Open cyberpunk again but load the file where you are going in the garage.
3. Skip the cutscene.
4. Then load the file with the black thumbnail in your files (that is the scene where you are in the car with the dude).
5. Hope it works

EDIT: it still crashes after missions :(
