Paralysis is still causing crashes

[Chitn]

Been known for a month that paralyzing an enemy that is already paralyzed, typically bigger model enemies, causes the game to crash. BEEN A MONTH, and there still hasn't been a fix for it. RIP archer builds. JFC

Only solution is to just disable the effect..yay.

[Fluffy_Llama]

the unofficial patch fixes this

So powerful it paralyzed the game.

Easy way to work around it, I don't get crashes anymore. And I don't use Cheats or Mods. I always get a crash if I Paralyze an enemy and they're either flipping out widely, doing some freaky break dancing, or spinning in mid-air, and if I attack them again... I crash. But if I Paralyze an enemy and they either fall to the ground or up against something stiff as a board, (like it should be), and I attack them... I don't crash.

So just pay attention to what you're doing.

Its a collision bug. AI are getting paralysed and falling through the terrain causing colliders to freak out and in some cases cause a CTD.

Why tf are yall expecting any fixes at all. Expect NOTHING and you'll stop being so disappointed. Why tf would you think they are gonna fix anything if you already gave them your money? You think corporations give a tiny miniscule fck about you? They already got paid dumdums. As far as they are concerned the transaction is complete.

Interesting. I was wondering for some time now, why both my archers NEVER encountered this crash, that I hear so much about. Maybe that's because I never saw what you just described. Paralyzed enemies always just fall slowly to the ground or stiff against something... always as expected... strange...

Don't hold your breath. The Power Armor bug has existed in FO76 since it came out.

I'm not complaining, but just wondering: why does this never happen to me? Not even once in my 60 hours playing nothing but Marksman?

I'm not using the unofficial patch either. I just don't get why I'm never getting any of these bugs that seem to plague so many here. My system isn't high-end, either. Just a Ryzen 7 7700x and 3060 Ti. But at 1080p I'm getting 143 frames inside, 70-90 or more outside, very little stuttering, only two crashes -- one in the title screen menu changing to XESS, and the other in an inn after waiting and 15 NPCs walked in all at once, all talking and walking their paths and doing their tavern routines all at the same time so that wasn't an unexpected crash.

But I get none of the other crashes. And I wonder: why? What's special about my setup? Is it the newer (than mine) graphics cards and CPUs that have these problems?

Same behavior on my end. Never seen anything weird about the paralysis, not once.

More stable clocks on the GPU and CPU. See Unreal really does not like overclocked devices at all, and absolutely will CTD at the drop of a hat above a certain threshold on your card or cpu regardless of what kind it is.

People don't realise that Dx12 does not have same level of error checking in its code, the same as Dx11 does (for performance reasons). So its extremely easy to crash dx12 compared to dx11, And on top of with unreal 5 means "crash crashy" titles when they have bugs. And even more so true when using up scaling or frame generation, which require stability in code to run properly.

So simply put, your system us just more stable and using settings that are less error prone.

Well, this makes me want to never upgrade my CPU of GPU, or resolution, again.

Seriously. Because nearly everyone with higher-end rigs seems to be crashing constantly, according to these forums this past month.

You should add RAM timings to that as well...

In those cases its a combination of the game on Ue5 having problems and high end hardware getting high level clocks on the hardware. The two never play nice and never have. Things like "oc edition" cards that under normal circumstances would be fine, suddenly start crashing.

Personally I went from a crash fiesta to fairly stable by disabling frame gen and then down clocking my card 5%. And its only a 7700XT so nothing crazy OC'ed. The game is just desperate for a patch.

Space Marine 2 on the same engine post patching has fantastic performance and stability. But for the first 2 months was a CTD party and everyone was invited.

True. However I hesitate to complicate an explanation simply to keep the point...on point as it were.

Space Marine 2 isn't on the same engine. It uses World War Z's swarm engine.
