Freezes and Game Not responding
Am I the only one here who is always in fear that the game might freeze at the start and might go full unresponsive to the point that Task Killers can't kill the executable and even halts the computer from normally shutting down? Like I have to force a shutdown by holding the reset button on the computer

this game does freeze time to time but my pc still able to handle it, I notice it uses RAM a lot so if you don't have much then it might crash
Yeah it happened to me

It didn't even used a lot of ram CPU and RAM is only somewhere 15 - 30% most of the time

People cannot do mind reading.
Tell more details, please.

I have never encountered a single freeze issues (except Engineer bug, which is fixed eons ago), only slight FPS drop when I used something that obviously could break the game, such as MOAB Spikes and Ice Shards spam.

Even in my mobile, at most it's just low FPS on crappy old Android.

My PC specs is still around 5 years old mid-spec standard. Only Graphic Card changed:
- Windows 10 64 (Always updated)
- Intel i5-6400 CPU 2.70 GHz
- 8GB RAM, not DDR 5 for sure
- GTX 1650 or GTX 760 same performance

Monitor is 1920 x 1080, 60Hz. Vsync setting is depending on software, which BTD 6's default is 60 FPS. I sometimes run in Full Screen, but mostly Windowed mode in 1024 x 768.
I also don't install any crappy or privated software that comes with malicious stuff.

PC Specs alone don't always help, because software has to be keep up to prevent the bottleneck. It's not just the Graphic card software, but also the game, and game engine by themselves. Minecraft has to be updated by itself to match up latest ray tracing technology, not just having the old version by itself.

This game also don't handle anything beyond 1920 x 1080 well, or super spam like this:

Coop gameplay also tend to be laggy due to latency, and coop partners' hardware limit. If you can give detailed info, contact NK support, not me.

it seems that you miss understood, not sure if anyone had actually read my full post but "game might freeze at the START", what I mean by that is just starting the game and going to the main menu has a chance to freeze the game and become unresponsive.
I have played multiple different games using the Unity Engine, this is the first time ever a game to have this very weird problem

I have also had this issue
I thought it was specific to linux proton, but nah.
usually triggers after about 30 mins to an hour of gameplay, but can be less.
totally freezes everything except cursor. can't switch windows and can't kill the task.

Running into this issue too, I've got an RX 6600 XT GPU, 16 gigs of RAM, and a Ryzen 3 3100 CPU.
