slime rancher 2 keeps crashing

[Lem0nz]

Slime rancher keeps crashing on the "press any key to start" window. I tried to update windows, my PC and all, then I tried to run the game as an administrator and lastly I uninstalled it and installed it back. but none of that works. IDK what to do. The last time I played the game was on spring-summer time I think? And then it worked just fine with zero complications. And today I just thought it crashed because it's been quite a while, but now I'm starting to believe that's not the case. I really hope someone could help me with this.

from what the devs have noted in the support section of the forums, its seemingly tied to GPU specs being below the minimum specs. Same cause for a crash in the starlight strand in previous versions.

I'm having the same trouble...

The game crashes as soon as I press any buttons at the beginning. I was really looking forward to playing it again after so long... I really hope this issue gets resolved relatively soon...

[miguel.paone]

given what the cause has been attributed to... i doubt it

same cause as a crash that's been present since day 1, and as its been attributed to using a device outside their supported specs... they aren't likely to do much for that

I will prolly regret wading in but... OP said they did play the game. Right up until the summerish update. At this point I'd ask, OP what are the system specs?

Sadly, a lot of people don't know that latest drivers don't always equal fix. It does usually = beta testing drivers. I really wish the language about driver's for graphic cards would update to "Lastest stable build."

But that's a whole different conversation.

And its a fair point, and its worth exploring if the OP will add anything else to this. I will note however, that just cause the issue started now and not in previous updates doesn't necessarily mean the specs were up to par prior.

My own GPU was below system specs, as were many others. We could play the game mostly fine in previous versions, minus crashing for merely looking at the blue half of starlight strand in the worst cases, or touching it ever so slightly in the best cases.

Oh, I have the same problem, can you tell me how to fix it?
I tried to update the drivers, but after the game crashed my Windows 10 color changed from blue to purple, I had to do a system restore

[Masmund]

[svaerx]

I've been having the same problems, is it because my pc isn't powerful enough?

[Wassupp576]
