After a few minutes, the Windows login screen opened up. The last time it crashed, the game stopped playing, then the audio started playing again, just like before, but both screens went black and stayed black. I think that's the first time I've ever gotten that error, and I had no idea what it meant. This was less than 5 minutes into the game, and the error I got was: PAGE FAULT IN NONPAGED AREA.
I assume this period of time where I can hear the audio again is where it autosaves. Each time it crashes, it locks up for a few seconds, then the audio plays again for another few seconds, before the whole screen goes black as the program exits and UPlay shows up. I think 3 or 4 times (13 hours into the game), the program has just stopped. It dips down the most after returning from Net Hack to normal vision after being in Net Hack for a few minutes. I'm pretty sure it was just while driving around.
With these specs, I am getting minimum 25 FPS, and a maximum of 50, usually it's at 40-45, and one time it dipped all the way down to 15.
#WATCH DOGS 2 CRASHING FREE#
NVidia GeForce GTX 960 (Asus Strix, OC) (GPU)ฤก6gb, Kingston HyperX (~8gb free at any moment) (RAM) I don't know what kind of performance I should be having, but I do know what kind I am having. I assumed it had something to do with my hardware - perhaps it's too hot, perhaps it's ran too long, etc. I'm having all of the above issues with the game, but mine seems to crash randomly.
