I know there must have been several topics about this, but as far as I saw, none of them actually got an answer or a real way to actually fix this, so.. Welp here I go I guess?
I used to play Diablo 4 at launch, and during the first three seasons. I paused after that, and returned some days ago, considering that the DLCs were more than enough of a reason for me to actually dive back in.
I used to play on a laptop with graphics above average, and I moved two years ago on a better computer, a desktop with twice as much RAM than before.
Before anyone comments that it’s because hardware is not good enough, I think it’s important to point out that I can play games such as RE Requiem with graphics on Ultra… And that Diablo 4 with all graphics on Low still crash after about half an hour, which is EXTREMELY stressful when you’re a hardcore player.
Here are the few things I saw around, and that I tried to fix the problem:
-Setting all graphics to low
-Deactivating cross-platform
-Deactivating some graphic options that relate to AI
-Running the Fix tool on battle.net
-Reinstalling the game
-Reinstalling the game AGAIN on another drive (went from HDD to SDD)
-Removing the HD pack from the install properties
And… Well it still crashes after between 30 minuts to 2 hours (personnal best, which is… Frustrating?). I would love if anyone actually found a fix that actually works…. I run the game on a 32 Go Ram computer, so I don’t think Ram is related to the problem…
It’s worth to mention that, when I tried to play the game with an interactive map on my second screen, the browser went out of memory at the very same time the game crashed.
