Interesting… started playing now online, got some dailies, so wandered around in the beach area, died, bounced back to the Meadows because that’s where my last save was, and I’ve killed a dozen guys, died, bounced back to the meadows save point again, and I seem fine.
I wonder if the issue / crashes only happen when the client is in offline mode? I suppose I could test that for science, but I hate making things explode intentionally.
Nope, strange. Set steam to be offline, played for maybe 15 minutes, killed 4 guys, died 3x (stupid heavy club guys and stagger lock), ran to sacrament and back in to check the bridge zone line, and it seemed normal. … Outside of what seemed like extremely long load times. (Prior to breach loads seemed to be like 2 seconds, now they seem upwards of 10? Especially when online.)
Nope, so much for that theory. Just spent time doing dailies not in the meadow, then tried to continue the main story quest where I left off (assuming I’m missing something in the meadow since there’s the plague blocking the north area) and I immediately crashed passing the gate when it was attempting to load the meadow.
Doesn’t seem limited to offline play since I was online at the time.
Looks like my world is corrupt until this can be patched? Seems everywhere else is fine, but I can’t progress the main story line anymore past the bear/huntress fight after beating her?
I’m also having this issue. I’ve only encountered it if I spawn from a location outside the meadows and try to enter through the Sacrament city gates.
I can take the lift from the Mariner and have no problems.
I can use the Orban Glades entrance up the ladder and along the wall.
Once inside, it seems I can leave and re-enter freely even through the city gates (I walk into the city until the Sacrament banner appears, then walk back into the Meadows).
However, if I try to enter through the main gates after spawning in Sacrament, I crash to desktop with no error message.
Ok not sure if any of this helps track things down, but I just spent 1.5 hrs with no issues in the meadows.
(At which point I gave up, when north to where I thought I couldn’t progress and noticed something I hadn’t before. Might be due to low brightness on the laptop monitor compared to regular monitors?)
The things which I think currently…
The bug is random if you get it, it may or may not happen
(And I just got lucky now and it didn’t happen)
The bug is related to the zone/load crossing points.
Either this is where they can happen, or somehow by my only walking, instead of running, this prevents the bug.
The bug is weirdly related to any character on the world having either the shellsometing gauntlets, electrical gem, or both combined.
(When starting tonight I loaded the game, banked those, quit the game and steam, watched 2 shows, then came back in to play.)
No clue if I’m safe or if it still may happen if I go back at a future time, but for the moment I seem past the area.
I have more or less the same thing, except that I deco in Lowland by adding pestilence (I don’t know if that has an effect on my crash) and since then it’s impossible to play in my kingdom because it crashes when I want to play on it
I had no issue backtracking into lowland meadows until I burned resources to trigger a plague. Now it crashes every time I enter by walking in. I’m not sure if it would crash if I fast traveled, my waypoint was in the shallows when I triggered the plague. I died instantly because enemies spawned on top of me T.T
I and a lot of players encountered game crash when we entering Lowland Meadows. I collected some common points.
The game runs normally before we finish the main story. But after we activited the Plague System, this BUG keeps happening, the game keeps crashing. No matter we enter Lowland Meadows from the City , the Beach or other entrances.
This BUG seems to disappear if we clear the infected areas on the map.
This is a repeatable BUG, a lot of players encountered this.
This bug is reoccurring for me today after progressing the game to the point of unlocking pestilence zones. I get a crash to desktop anytime I enter the lowlands.
Yea, i’ve got kind of the same issue. Tried walking to lowlands, went to the left (characters point of view) just before heading out of the city and down a long ladder. Coming up i can’t enter the lowlands, had 4 crashes in a row before heading back to the city.
Small update on this issue. I was able to enter from the ladder directly outside of the game’s first boss arena. Unfortunately, this shortcut to the lowlands can only be opened upon having already been through the lowlands.
If this option is available to you, I’ld recommend it!
Hello,
I also have the bug when I enter Lowland Meadows via the bridge.
But I only have this bug since I started fighting the swarm (I can’t think of the name right now). But if I go over the short cut at the first boss, so the ladder up the wall then I do not have the crash.
