Game keeps crashing during loading screen after menu
Does anyone have a fix?
I was playing through the rambo quest and my game randomly crashed. Now, my game keeps crashing during the loading screen after i press the "continue game" option.

My specs (tell me if there's anything missing, i'm kinda new to pc gaming):
AMD Ryzen 5 2600 six core processor;
MSI 1060GTX 6gb GPU;
16GB of ram
My game's installed on a HDD, but i have some SSD storage if that can help.

you provided so info no one here can assist you

try here
https://www.ubisoft.com/en-us/help/connectivity-and-performance/article/troubleshooting-technical-issues-on-pc/000061047

first step verify your game files .. you may have some kinda corrupt save

and shut off that silly setting in UBI connect for cloud saves

be a man back up your own save files manually

"Away from the personal insults,"What did you mean by this?

he thinks i was insulting you since your original post had no system specs in it and i pointed that out you added that thank you btw .. that helps us understand

1 there is no such video card as a GTX 1060 TI

there is only the GTX 1060 6 gig and 3 gig

are you on a laptop or desktop >?

i owned a GTX 1060 6 gig when the game first shipped a factory overclocked card too

and yes it sucked for far cry 6 game ran ...but yea choppy in 1080 P

you probably crashed because you ran out of video ram available

again first step delete your save file (yes you may need to start a new game if you left the ubisoft cloud save setting on ... in ubisoft connect settings ) thats why its looping

step 2 verify your game files ..make sure you dont have any bad files installed

step 3 start a new game and keep that silly ubisoft cloud save setting unchecked in your ubi connect settings


step 4 update your video drivers and use DDU and clean out the old one before you do ,,and yes lower your settings and expectation of your GTX 1060 and far cry 6

you need a RTX 3060 or better for this game

so uncheck the option to use cloud saves in ubi connect settings

start a new game after you update your drivers for a video card that does not exist

My drivers are all up to date(although i have no idea what DDU is) , and i have verified my game files, one did not validate, but it changed nothing.

My game has been running perfectly fine on high since i started playing, no fps drops, my gpu never overheated etc....

Unfortunately i cannot afford a 3080 for now, i need a better cpu/motherboard first, and i won't be able to upgrade my pc for the next few weeks.

It seems you were right however, my save file must have gotten corrupted, since everything is fine after loading a new game.
I have deleted my old save game and deactivated that stupid cloud save function and will wait until I have better specs if I encounter the same problem again.

Thank you very much for the help, and have a good one :)

look for at least a RTX 3060 card they are not that expensive any more i paid over 500 bucks for mine but it was well worth it

again good luck i hope you find your fix man and hope that i led you on the right path
so you can finally enjoy this game .. yes its a v ram hog

oh and read up on DDU here sir
https://www.wagnardsoft.com/content/DDU-Guide-Tutorial


a clean driver install is always best

even Nvidia hosts this guys software on its own forums for getting a clean video driver install (or used to as far back as i can remember )

DDU is a great tool for removing old pieces of left over drivers an getting the proper ones installed for your GPU

also for some card as old as a GTX 1060 seek out older drivers ..they may be more stable ..hell im still using 2 yr old drivers for my 3060 .. works fine

my gtx 1060 in the bedroom PC works fine with 4 yr old drivers ,,but i dont play fc 6 on it ,,just use that system anymore as a HTPC

(home theater with a 4 K tv )

you will see little to no benefit with new Nvidia drivers on a GPU that old .. they only optimize for the new gen GPU's

\and yes there never was a GTX 1060 ti

only the GTX 1060 6 gig card
and the GTX 1060 3 gig model which was really not worth buying at all

Since you got the game to work. Just run the game on lower settings , Not to stress the system. I run the game on high textures high distance view , and everything else on medium or off. My rig is rather old. So I have to run some games alot "leaner" to allow for 4k.

I will do the same. Thank you very much.
