Frequent crashing during Vessel of Hatred expansion

Myself and my husband (1070s) on i7-3550ks, and our friend running a 6650XT, are ALL having repetaed crashes, and sometimes there is no fenris; the game just is suddenly NOT RUNNING, no error, nothing! have tried 4 different nvidia drivers but this issue across machines and geography tells me yall have a code issue…

Same, totally random but about an hour or two in between crashes.

AMD Ryzen 5800X3D, Nvidia 3060ti, Windows 10 Pro 22H2, latest Nvidia drivers, nothing is overclocked. Someone at Blizzard needs to fix the error handling.

Can’t get anything done because of this stupid crashing issue

I (maybe?) got some improvement turning off DLSS and Nvidia reflex.

I was seeing crashes like clockwork about every 50-90 minutes for over 14 hours of gameplay. I followed a tip and turned off DLSS scaling and nvidia reflex.

Now I’m making it 3-4 hours before a crash?

Or maybe i"m just lucky.

72A47C1E-243F-4AA4-A94C-9B06FB2DC733 another one. of course the game has crashed every few hours without fail for all three of us all day today. Laggy, dropped frames, just…I hope this is being worked.

Getting these as well. Nothing specific stands out when it happens.

Got this too, I frequently have it happen when farming Uber bosses or Ancestral Tribute Undercity runs. The game just eats the materials you used to summon/enter the area.

I checked Event Viewer for the several dozen crashes I’ve had and nothing shows up. Its like the game just ALT-F4’s itself so I can’t even research the issue/troubleshoot it on why it might be happening.

I’m running an RTX 3090, AMD Ryzen 5950x CPU.

In moments leading up to these incidents my GPU and CPU are running cool as can be, 33 Celsius on my CPU, 71 Celsius on my GPU so its not thermal throttling.

Ran a memtest, all clear here, no issues. SFC /scannow returned no issues as well.

Uninstall/reinstall Diablo, issue persists ever since Vessel of Hatred.

Fix this please Blizzard. This is embarassing.

Agreed, nothing in particular comes to mind. It feels random.

I’ve been experiencing this as well ever since the release of the expansion. The game just suddenly kills itself without giving me any error messages or anything.
I think the longest I’ve been able to play without it happening is like 1.5 hours, and the shortest was only for a couple of minutes. I didn’t have this issue in the original game and I’m not seeing it in any other games either, so it’s most definitely related to Vessel of Hatred in one way or another.
I hope they fix it soon, because this is getting really tiresome.

People, you don’t need to repair and troubleshout on this. It’s Blizzards fault!
Sinds the update lots of crashes, game freezes, LAG. Hope they fix this soon, this is very frustrating and I am loosing interest in this game atm!

Same thing happening since VoH. Randomly doing literally anything in game including idling in town, crash to desktop and loss of materials.

What has helped - disabling direct storage and setting pagefile manually to 64GB. This has reduced frequency to every 2-3 hours instead of every hour.

Is doing it on 23H2 and a fresh 24H2 install. 4090/9950, NVME drive.

I too am having frequent crashes since VoH release. This has never happened before. Are we going to get any kind of acknowledgement or update from blizzard on this?

Hi! I also had this problem. I tried to play with the graphic options. I have a 4070 card…maybe i have find the solution. I switched from DLSS to AMD FSR 2. Before i had crashes every 20 minute or so…now i played 2 hours and smooth as before. I hope that i helped guys, because this crashes are ridicoulous, and we dont deserve it.

same here, i7 9H - 1660ti - 32 gb DDR4 RAM - 500mb internet , no problems before Vessel of Hatred, dedicated 30gb of ram in the drive and got better, but did not fixed it

Is Blizzard even tracking this??? I contacted support and they littery tell you to ask other players in forums.

On ps5 and it crashes a bit ever since Vessel of hatred. Seems to do it more often when i go to town and visit the stable master.

Happens to a lot of us, same place , portal to town, some memory and plugin issue, played 6 hours of Diablo immortal, no issue. Go to Diablo 4 , 15 min I crash, I probably have tried like 15 different things, I’ve gone through probably 20 post with a group of people with the same issue. At this point is it really us ?

Laughable… worthless support.

Been playing diablo 4 since the start no issues, no crashing. I have a i9 and 4090 alienware. Works great. Did the update day 1 launch. Crashed almost every 1 time every 2 hours. Nothing really important lost until today. Lost huge amounts of legs, and just did a 10 wave plus almost finish both bosses on tier 2 took around a 1 hour and crashed! A friend with a crappy pc crashing all the time as well. I figured they would fix it by now.
