after 200 hours non stop crashes

[DaxxRiggs]

i put over 200 hours into this wonderful game, never had an issue. then about a week ago the game started crashing constantly. no mods at all. Ive tried turning settings down, prioritized in nvidea, reinstalled, validated, etc. nothing seems to work.
my pc spec
i7-9700k, gtx 1070, 16gb ddr4 3200mhz, 64bit win10,

just dont understand why i had 0 problems for so long then suddenly... this.
any help would be greatly appreciated

same issue. I haven't played for a week. Installed the update in the meantime.
I played 40h, been from start to swamps, not a single problem like this.
Now Im getting laggy and within seconds fps drop to 1-2 and I can't do anyting. My friend with whom I've been playing gets constantly disconnected.
Nothing else has been changed.

You still have free space ?

I have 120gb free space on my ssd wich is where the game is installed. windows is on another disk. its still doing it after trying everything. just as it crashes, a small box that says unity player.dll somthing. it closes fairly quick. but its always unity player.dll

I have the same problem. Have been playing for a week now. 80 hours. 1 crash per hour. Also glowing objects that tint the screen with some basic color. I learned to live with that, and life was good.

Today however I started building a new base. Big, 3 storey building. Number of crashes increased to 10 per hour.

I finished the building and started digging trenches. Number of crashes: 20-30 per hour. After every crash game loads last save, basically resetting my whole work.

I gave up on the trenches. Teleported somewhere else. Still about 10 crashes per hour. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, I can't logout every 5 minutes just to save the game.

I tried downgrading all graphical options, but to no avail. I upgraded GPU drivers. I reinstalled the game twice. Now I gave up. At the beginning I was thinking that this is better than the release of Cyberpunk 2077 in terms of bugs and issues. But now this game is just unplayable.

Played in 4k, max settings. Game runs pretty smooth. Probably always above 50 fps. Worst fps was always at my old base - almost 9k instances. At my new base - 8k instances.

I have tested some more things and could find a way to prevent the game from crashing.

For some reason the game does not crash when I limit the fps to 40 via NVidia control panel (not in the global settings but in the gamespecific settings).

Now I play at 2560x1440 at 40fps without any crashes, before I played at 60 fps with the same resoulution and it ran smooth though it crashed constantly sometimes after a couple minutes and another time after mabye an hour but it did inevitably crash at some point.

Not anymore. Don´t ask me why, I have no clue but it seems to be a workaround for the moment, I still hope I can put my fps back to 60 at some point without having issues.

(btw at 50 fps it didn´t crash either but I went for 40 fps to be extra sure since that is the minimum I can live with for now)

It works for me as well! Thank you very much! :) Now, back to the game.

EDIT:
Ok, doesn't work perfectly. I get a crash every 30 minutes or so.
