Crashing constantly, don't put too much time into something. :)
Just letting everyone know, that if you're gonna go ham, and put a lot of time and effort into something, make sure you stop what you're doing and save the game every 5 seconds. This game crashes so often it's not even funny. Unfortunately for me, I didn't start getting these bugs and problems people were talking about till I had way to much play time to where I can't refund. Please fix this. Ridiculous this game took you guys 2 years yet, you still release garbage.

Mine never crashes, but I save frequently anyway because I'm used to games that do

You could sow the soil of all Carthage with the salt in that last sentence alone.

Look, the game is fine. I've played for 80-some hours and experienced exactly three crashes. One of them was a GPU issue when I kept alt-tabbing out of fullscreen, and was my fault. Another was a result of trying to release multiple animals, which got patched the very next day. If you're crashing that often, there's something going on with your hardware. How's your RAM? Are you running any other software in the background that might be overloading your RAM or CPU? Are your drivers up to date?

That said, saving often is never a bad suggestion.

32 hours in and not getting a single crash since, It's your computer problem.

My computer runs the game perfectly fine, it randomly crashes.
In case you don't believe me here's my specs.
CPU: Intel Core i7 4790K 4.2GHz
RAM: 16GB (Don't know the exact specs of it tho)
GPU: Geforce RTX 2080 Super
Mobo: AsRock Z97 Extreme4
and a g-sync monitor at 144hz.
The games runs just fine, keeping up with G-Sync. Usage across my GPU and CPU stays high in the 80s sometimes low 90s. Ram is like 50% maybe? Alongside running chrome (that hog)
A little salty, since this game is full price but myself and others still deal with issues. (RDR2)

I don't think it's fair to make people pay $40/$50 for a game that isn't actually finished. I'm having the same issue. and before today it was running semi-well. today was the first time it's crashed over and over.

I've crashed once in 100+ hours.

Mine was running perfectly fine until today. Now, it crashes every few minutes.

Try verifying file integrity on steam, then restarting PC immediately after.

Have not had a single crash yet.

I was crashing a lot. try running in windowed mode. It reduced my crashes from 5-10 minutes to 2-5 hours.

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried that and it's still crashes. I also tried running it on borderless window, and that doesn't help either.

It could still be a computer issue. I've only crashed three times in 90+ hours of play time thus far. It's not always how good the hardware is; make sure all your drivers are updated and such for minimal crashes.
