Support has redirected me here to get some kind of help or input. The game is constantly crashing, I cannot play for an hour straight without it crashing down. It seems to correlate with the auto save, but not sure it is neccessray so. The issue also seems to habe gotten worse with each release. The (frankly expensive) game becomes completely unplayable like this.
Any info?
 
Not sure it will help, but I had the same problem after the last few patches, just trying, I switched to Vulkan from Direct X and of course it crashed really quick. I then switched back to Direct X and was able to play with no crashes until yest update. I repeated switching to Vulkan, crash, and back to Direct X and so far no crashes.

Not a clue why it helped me.

We're sorry to hear you're experiencing these issues. Thank you for including a detailed description. We'll be sure to pass this on to the Dev Team.
 
Cheers for the answer but i should‘ve added that I am a ps5 player

Well, I've experienced more crashes as well, since some updates ago. But I keep sending the crash reports. It's not as dramatic for me as it is for you, it crashes occasionally, so I'm still enjoying playing the game at this time. Anyhow, not that PS5 uses directx, but I think perhaps they switched to Vulcan on PS5 too.

I have crashes of the game, but worse than that actually, 1/3 of those crashes are rather the game freezing up and not crashing. In those cases it's not possible to send a crash report.

Anyways, I'm using monthly autosaves, and like you, sometimes I do suspect the crashes do come at or around the time of the autosave, so you could be correct in thinking it is tied to the autosave.
 
I have the same problems. Support from Paradox is very poor. For me the crash is always related to the autosave in Ironman mode and when the empire has reached a certain size. While the crashes occurred every 2-3 hours when there was an empire, they were much more frequent when there was an empire with 3 or more empires. I'm now at 4-5 crashes an hour. This makes the game unplayable from realm size x.

This is still very much relevant and an issue is there ANY update or fix for this?
