Crashing Questions before I buy...

[Vermilion Knight]

So I read that in between some reviews are people talking about crashes in the game.
Is there a common thing that's causing this or is it completely random? I have a pretty good PC rig and so if it's just people who are playing on a laptop I don't really count that valid if their hardware is the issue. The game looks like it would be awesome I just don't want to hop in if it legitimately has crashing issues across all PC types

3070 and 5800x
im crashing every 2-3 minutes either ending my turn or clicking on my armies

likewise. crashing

I crash about every 30 minutes. It’s not too big of a deal though, they are working on a fix so I’m not worried. The game is amazing other than the occasional crash.

3080 and an i9-12900k, 32gb ram. nothing overclocked. nvme drives. Newest Nvidia drivers. Crashes every 3-15 minutes.

Game itself seems fun, but lost interest in playing it until it gets patched. I'll keep the game, as no point refunding for what appears to be a decent game.

Gone to Spellforce: Conquest of EO in the meantime. It is excellent and stable.

I was crashing only during tactical battles, but the hotfix on the beta branch seems to have fixed this problem considerably.

I can't play, I crash after a few minutes randomly, I updated to the newest Nvidia drivers for my card and it got worse.

Didn't realise there was a hotfix being tested. Have flipped to the beta to give it a go.

I've had 0 crashes on a 3070 in 10 hours of play, my friend has the same rig more or less and has had 3 crashes in 10 hours of play, cause unclear

i7-7700K and a 3080 TI under Windows 10, I've fortunately only had one crash in the six hours I've played. When I played with some friends both times they had to manually play a battle I got a desync partway through the fight, though it wasn't difficult for me to rejoin and then fast forward through the fight to get back to where they were. Certainly the game has some technical issues but I haven't personally encountered any crippling issues.

Speaking of battles and crippling issues though, the combat camera needs to settle down, seriously. Every time an enemy takes their turn there's some kind of juddery multi-axis camera movement to track them or make it more dramatic or whatever it's trying to do. It seems to be intentional design yet it sets off my motion sickness in a way that very, very games ever have., and I definitely wouldn't expect to get this from a turn-based non-VR game.

There's really no settings to disable this 'feature', there's options to make it worse in campaign mode in case I wanted to experience it there also, and there's options to speed up unit animations to max speed by default -- which just speeds up all the shaky cam stuff, doesn't turn it off.

Ryzen 5800u. Not crashing. Although I only played for like 5 minutes to see if my laptop can run this game.

[Jho-Em]

mine stuck on a loading screen, i mean its too long to load, sorry for my english.

[★KO★]

keep crashing

[Vermilion Knight]

Okay thanks for the input guys. Seems like I'll wait just for a bit as it appears to effect multiple set ups for unknown reasons. I saw that the devs replied quickly and want to work toward fixing it so perhaps in just a few weeks I might purchase it.

I crashed once when I alt-tabbed after first loading it up and not since. The initial graphical artifacts I had also decreased; they're more common in lower quality setting since it's decreasing texturization.

[DrGozer]

Mine crashes when I click "close" after the combat. I couldn't yet find a workaround
