Been loving the new update on ps5 but ever since the new update 3.4 (overlord) my game has been been crashing like crazy whenever I do anything only lasting 15-30 minutes max and the performance has gotten significantly bad even more so than before in the late game (rn at 2400)

I think they should make a PS5 optimized version

Yep, been having this on PS5 (all DLC) as well. Once it gets to the late 2300s it starts crashing every 15 - 30 minutes. Loving all the new content, but very annoying to crash playing ironman games...

In light of no acknowdlegment of this by the developer, which leads me to belive that any potential fix is most likely far off in the future, I decided to ask Microsoft for a refund.
I refuse to pay money for a product that does not work and which faults are not adressed.
I will keep watching this issue and once it's rectified I will rebuy the DLC, till then I will enjoy the game without Overlord.

Yeah, it gets worse and worse the later you are in a game with how many assets (pops, fleets, etc) that increase. At the point now where I load the game, uprising happens, and I try to send my fleet over and it crashes. Can't even save after the uprising empire distinguishes its territory on the galactic theater just to get a bit of distance before it crashes, because it crashes when saving too lol. Also for every single crash (since overlord) I get PS error code CE-108255-1. Don't know if that's the same error code y'all get or not; and/or if it'll help the devs if they read this, but I'll post it anyway.

Yeah it would be nice just too get a confirmation that the devs have seen these posts and know there’s a fix coming as the game is unplayable atm and I’m feeling a bit robbed as I love this game.

Still having the same issue. Ps5. Never had an issue with crashing until new update. Groups I'm in speak of the same issue regardless of system. Xbox and ps both crashing mid game.
Yeah I don't think the update really changed much at all, game still crashes (though I guess not as much as before) when you try to pull up the expansion planner, the bug I've reported about the war goals not updating hasn't changed, as well as the mid/late game crashing. Guess I'll just have to never open the expansion planner,
Colossus every uprising I have to defend against, and be a determined exterminator and/or become the crisis every game till its fixed. ;-;

Still having this issue. Playing on the same settings as before the update. After 2300 the game starts crashing every 15min randomly when I open systems/fleet manager/planets/GC etc. Now at 2450 it's every 5 min. When I'm not at war I just have to sit still on the map and hope I don't crash.

I actually went and bought a series X because I thought it would help. I knew people on the next gen platforms said it wouldn't help in the end but I did it anyway, was time for an upgrade anyway. Well it didn't help, games crashing by 2300 constantly. I love this game and it really sucks having to take such a break from it. Dev team pls fix
 
Same issues for me on Series X - it was happening when opening expansion planner but now happening at random every 5-10 minutes (year 2400+)

Unfortunately going to step away from the game until fixed.
