Game keeps freezing at random
It's starting to piss me off since the game freezes and remains with the last frame, but you can still hear yourself controlling everything

glad I am not the only one

yea :/ It really looks like a good game but having to constantly replay scenes cause of it is a bit annoying.

Became impossible to play at The Park, crashes every time I try to leave. Sad seems like such a good story.

Found another issue that may be causing it. I have a dual graphics card i had to manually make it use my GEFORCE 2060. It was defaulting to intel integrated.

The Park scene that constantly crashed was fine after fixing that. Unsure if it will fix all the crashes.

I turned off a setting in the graphics which helped a lot but now it's barely unplayable when there is rain

Where did you find the option to change the graphic card?
Amarisse Jun 18, 2020 @ 11:55am 
I had to do it through nvidia control panel and force it to use the graphics card for it.

It still freezes but the freezes are for a second then i can move again and they are not happening as often.

In case anyone's wondering. I'm confident it's not my pc but here are my specs as of 18June2020.
Also, Yes, I've tried disabling 1 of my 2080 Ti's. Problem still persisted afterwards.
Negative on any overclock. I'm still running stock clock speeds. Planning on doing a custom loop for cpu and gpu soon. But, I digress.

psu: evga-supernova p2 1600w 80+platinum
gpu: (2x) evga geforce rtx 2080ti 11gb (sli-config.)
cpu: intel-core i9-9900k
cpu cooler: corsair h100i platinum (rgb verison)
mobo: asus-rog strix z390-e gaming
memory: corsair vengeance pro 64gb (rgb edition)

Must be an active bug. I'm getting random stuttering / game freezing with some audio glitching. At first, I thought it was my end since I was trying to play the game at 5760x1080 but, I was unsuccessful with nVidia surround at this resolution. However, when I'm playing at my native resolution 1920x1080 the stutters / game freezing persist. I'm sure its a bug/port issue and hopefully it gets resolve soon.

Thanks for this! I have a Dell G3 laptop and I think I fixed this issue for myself following your advice. I went to my graphics options and set the game exe to high performance, which forces it to just use my Geforce card instead of using both that and the Intel graphics. I have had some little freezes but nothing that just completely crashed the game. This is the first time I have stopped the game without having to use task manager to close it!

Dang! I guess i'll un install and await my PC Upgrade then.

New Game
Prologue (small audible reverb)
Get Up=ok
Exit outside=ok
Coming back in from outside=Froze
Open Cabinet=ok
Close Cabinet=Froze
Shower/Audio=ok
Pick up photo=ok
Put down photo=kinda froze
Pick up note=kinda froze
Read Note=Audio reverb on "I Love You"
Put down note=Froze

So I did what everybody has said; launch the NVidia Control Panel and select game. Well I do not have 2 Graphic Cards. My PC is a bit outdated but according to the minimum specs of a AMD 6300 I should be fine. 1 GPU of 1080ti and 16gigs RAM.

Anyways after adding game using defaults=same
Going back into Control Panel I selected each category and chose the NVidia Icon (my guess the suitable choice for my GPU); played the game and what I listed above is still what happened

I'd like to say its probably my CPU:

AMD FX 8350

Soon as Cyberpunk 2077 announces the PC Specs; i'm going shopping LOL then hopefully this game will play better

Seems to be an integrated graphics problem, had no issues on rtx3050ti or 1050, but on UHD620, work laptop, it crashes despite running pretty well.

With that it mind it could be a memory issue.
