Hello gents. I've been playing this fine game for over two years and close to 700 hours. No real issues to speak of until recently. I'm getting 'freezes' very often and in particular when fighting is close quarters and intense exchanges. Woods are particularly bad. The other night on a Harpers map I was freezing almost constantly over a 7-minute period of time and I could hear sounds but that's it.
This has been occurring for months and I have not been able to remedy it. Here's what I've done to troubleshoot.
- Upgraded my OS to Windows 10
- Reinstalled the game about 10 times between two different SSD drives (one has OS the other doesn't)
- Changed my NVIDIA settings to optimize performance
- OC'd my CPU
- Ran Windows memory Diagnostic to check ram (no errors found)
- Re-seated all my ram
- changed every possible setting under 'graphics' in War of Rights
- Reinstalled Steam
- Rolled back graphics drivers to before the time I was having issues
- sacrificed a squirrel to the gaming gods
I play Hell Let Loose, Rising Storm 2 on ultra... everything else runs perfectly but this game. Madden 2020 gives me a little bit of hiccups but generally every game I play is smooth as glass on max settings.
Here's my rig.
Windows 10
i5-4670 CPU @ 3.4 GHz (OC'd to 3.8)
GeForce GTX 1060 6GB
Z87-GD-65 Gaming (MS-7845) mobo
G.Skill Sniper Series Ram 16GB
Corsair 650TX 650W ATX12V
Dual monitors: LG 32" and Acer 24"
Drives: 2 spinnies and 2 SSD
One workaround I found the other night is when I'm freezing badly I hit ctrl>alt>del and don't quit out fully. This seems to reset WoR and I'm usually fine for a period of time after that. Any help is greatly appreciated.
