It’s been years since I started experiencing “Freezes/Locks” in the game, It’s only happening in Battlegrounds. Here’s what’s happening:
- Game is going well
- In combat, a minion is attacking
- the animation stops
- the game is locked “in combat”, nothing is happening
- the UI is still accessible, I can hover cards and play with the board elements
- the only way to go back to the game is to ALT+F4 and relaunch it, with the risk of missing a “minion’s recruit” turn.
I’ve been experiencing these issues on Windows 11 and it happened with my previous setup as well.
I’ve tested all the following fixes.
- Updating drivers
- Lowering the game settings to their lowest (I’m on 3070ti, Ryzen 5 5800X, 48Go of DDR4 ram)
- Repairing game
- Uninstalling the game from my HDD and install it to the SSD
As I already uninstalled Overwatch, I’m about to do the same with Hearthstone, this way I’ll not experience issues with your games anymore
So here’s my request to ATVI Blizzard (Bob Kotick):
- Stop spending all the fan base money on marketing bullsh*t
- Hire developers instead of marketeers, to have bugless and finished games without false promises
- Respect your staff
- Respect your fans, they pay you
Thank you!
An old fan of Blizzard games.
