memory issues when loading game

[WeldingYeti]

How come when i try to start up the game my memory spikes into the 40k+ and crashes my game. why did i pay 100 dollars for a game i cant even play?

yeah same here the game crashes everytime i try to boot it up the only way i can get the game to work is to validate the game through steam then the game will work until i exit the game and if i want to play it again i have to validate the game again. its a pain in the ass

[Migz - DH]

Huh. Weird.

My game will not load, it crashes back to Steam before it starts... validation of game files does nothing...
The game used to work, but with micro-stuttering and generally unhappy with the shooting and targeting- I tried a refund but it was too late - now the game is 100% dead....? Anyway to revive it?🤷‍♂️

I just got it on sale and it won't even load the shaders before it says out of memory and crashes. This is a new gaming rig with a GTX 4070ti. Refunded.

Are you using DX12 by any chance? While i get a more fluid gameplay with DX12 it memory crashes after a couple of minutes. No problems with DX11 tho.

How do I set it to DX11? I was told to try this but I'm a bit dumb and have no clue how to do that.

Right click game in library then go to properties and in the launch option box put -dx11.
