POE 2 Complete PC Freeze while loading screen

another day another patch - freeze/crush still not fixed (have seen reports about this on reddit since january 24) YEP classick
Точно такая же проблема, игра прости виснит когда делаешь тп в локацию
Im not having full freeze issue, im having infinite load screen. My PC keeps working, i can alt+tab and sound/animations still works in loadscreen. But it keeps there forever.

Already tried full reinstall the game, reset internet/pc, disable multithread, etc. Nothing worked.

It happened A LOT and is most common (but not restricted) when i go from act maps to act city.

Reporting again...

After formatting my PC and downgrading from Windows 24H2 to 23H2, I’ve had zero freezes since yesterday evening.

I suspected this might work because I had no freezing issues on 23H2 while playing POE 1 Settlers League. However, after updating to 24H2 and checking out MTX in POE 1 about a week ago, I experienced a freeze almost immediately. At the time, I didn’t pay much attention to it since I wasn’t heavily invested in POE 1, with POE 2 just a few days away.

If you have the time and are willing to give 23H2 a shot, it’s worth trying. Here’s a simple guide to downgrade:

It might not work in your case if you have slightly different hardware or if the problem lies elsewhere, but it could be worth a try.

Anyway, GGG, you need to release temporary fix for this already. No game should ever cause complete PC freeze ... no matter the hardware or windows.


It is 50/50. Some people have greezes there too. And some play normally on 24h2.
Jesus, yestersay was all fine, now after the new patch it seems worse. I can't do one transition to the camp without a crash. CPU 100%...
I was having this stuck in loading screen, requiring power off/on as well.

I am using windows. Here is what i did, go to "event viewer".



1) look at the date and time you do the power off/on, it should give off level=>Critical. Description would be: the system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first ... bla bla ...

2) then look at the date and time of the other errors below, few seconds before your shutdown. mine was 2 lines below.
Giving error level=>Warning. Description: The hypervisor did not enable mitigation ... bla bla ... , disable HyperThreading.

3) google how to disable HyperThreading for my Bios.

4) Restart windows, enter Bios, Disable Hyperthreading. Save and restart.

5) Been playing for 2 days (total 4 hours) not requiring power off/on. Once a while during portal, you will have 5-10 seconds freeze, but fret not, it will then resume loading. Might be due to HyperThreading disabled solution working, hope it works for those having same error as me.

totally unplayable rn.
use portal = stuck on loading
use waypoint = stuck on loading
close the game and try to login = stuck on loading

With 0.1.0d and those 6 crash bugs they say they fix, anyone having PC freezing?

I didn't tested yet because i'm working right now.

Anyone having this issue yet?

new patch downloaded played for 1 hour froze 3 times. it's not fixed at all. in fact it's worse than before the patch.

not sure what they are fixing with " 6 crash instance bugs fixed " but the issue got worse.

at this point i think either they don't care and just write that there or just don't know how to fix this issue at all

i would love to return the game at this point. but can't because of steam policies. worst game start i have ever seen in 20 years of gaming.
