Yeah been in the same boat since Monday. I tried remaking a character to restart and NOPE!! I think they are clueless on whatever this issue is.

Have you tried to set it to 1080p ? No its not ideal, but it might help.

You could try removing all mods if you have any installed and if still not working just go with the default until it's fixed. If you haven't found a fix on the discussions so far it's play the game or don't.

no...we dont need more than 32gigs of ram mate....they need to fix their game...32gigs is MORE than enough,for every game on earth.

Its called a memory leak, game problem, not user problem.

Fixable? No, only by devs.

This game doesn't require 32gb of RAM ..... At least not yet. Mine only hits around 40%. In fact CPU was less than that, somewhere between 20 and 30. It's all GPU from what can see.

I have two systems playing that are currently stable:

System 1: RTX 4080; i7-13700k; 64 GB DDR5
System 2: RTX 3080; Ryzen 5800X3D; 32 GB DDR4

The RTX 3080 is actually pushing a higher resolution as my wife likes the ultrawide 3440x1440 curved screen. She has to run a mix of medium and high settings with DLSS 3 enabled. I am rocking 2560x1440 and run mostly epic with DLSS 3 and frame generation enabled.

3 days without crashing, but prior to 11/1, it would crash every 5-10 min.

It's very poorly optimized.

I'm running a Ryzen 5600G, RTX 3060, 16G RAM and have no problems at all. People with way better rigs shouldn't be struggling.

I have the same problem. Freeze at character generation or short after game start. You can delay the freeze by cutting down the frame rate limit to 30-40 frames

Genuinely i do appreciate this because i have been thinking this the whole time.. The game literally is playable by people with way less powerful GPU's but i notice my RAM is not up to par with theirs....
