@a it locks up and hangs, sometimes it just hangs indefinitely, the taskmanager shows it still running and using processor and memory but it doesn't come out of the hang, other times I'm getting the "not responding" message. @eco it does pause sometimes but usually it hangs if it's going to do anything :/
@ a0152570 yup followed instructions on stardock to the letter
@Neuron, yup checked drivers first thing after encountering the issues. I've had no other game issues, D3 WoW etc run fine on full noise. @Barry, changed my power settings to high performance, seems to have reduced the issues significantly, ty. The remaining problem seems to be on zoom in-out-pan or just grab-panning the map
Done all that. Checked out the stardock page and reinstalled, still terrible.
intel i7 4710MQ 2x2.5 ghz processor 16GB RAM 64 bit system running windows 8.1 AMD Radeon R9 M290X graphics card I've turned off the sound and reduced the graphics to low. The game repeatedly crashes, no error messages it just hangs randomly ALL THE TIME! not at game save not when performing specific operations ALL THE TIME. And why can't I opt-in to the patch on steam?
Purchased the game yesterday, followed the advice on deleting/rennaming all the game locations, updated my video drivers, unenabled steam overlay, and the game is still almost unplayable. I can't opt-in from steam for this game the tab won't give me the option to. Have I just wasted my $$$$$s?
