Denver

[Godsdemon 03]

When I go to either East or West Denver I get into a HUGE fight with drools. The game engine bogs down and lags, then when I somehow about defeat it my game always crashes. I am now stuck since that is part of the story line and cannot advance any farther. Can this be addressed or fixed? Maybe not have 30 of those suckers come at me ? You could put in a tether for the rest of the mobs in the area to not come that way the engine doesn't bog down so heavily. I can do a video of it if you need "proof".

Haha, yes I've just had this... 30 though? More than that I think! I was actually doing quite well in hacking through them but both times I've tried the game crashes - presumably too many assets in play at once? Come on InExile - if this is an intended fight and not a crazy bug then at least make sure it doesn't crash your game engine!

that sounds like the ambush on the approach to denver. I recommend avoiding random fights with drools. there is no point to them except wasting time.

two ways to avoid: survival level of at least 3, or drive around known ambush areas. the big ambush of drools always occurs at the same spot on the main road between CS and Denver. you can go offroad to the east, and then drive north and then back west to get to denver and entirely avoid that ambush.

There is around hundred of drools. Game keeps crashing no matter which ruins-entrance i defend from this waves of enemies. Sometimes i snatch loot mid-battle and this action let me fight another 1-2 turn, then game crashes anyway

This is not ambush. This is ruins inside Denver location. If you choose to give Reagan to Communists and kill all gippers and then godfishers - nearby ruins will be flooded with drools. If you attack 1 of them, they will be aggroed all, from entire location.

Yep. This is the location that I am referring too.

[Kremmel]

yep, crashed at both entrances

I killed those drools without any crashes on second attempt, because first time I had no idea how many of them are there and they wiped out my squad. So far in over 45 hour of gameplay I havent experienced singe game crash

[Godsdemon 03]

I have repeated crashes at that spot. I didnt have any problems with my game til i did the "update". Not sure if it was timing on my part or the patch. My system should be able to handle this many entities on the board at one time.

They could easily just tether them. Have it so you only fight 8 or so every so many meters in to the ruins.
