New Tips to Resolve PoE 2 PC Freezing Woes
Path of Exile 2, the highly anticipated sequel to the popular action RPG, has unfortunately been plagued by some PC freezing issues for certain players. Developed by Grinding Gear Games, the game offers a Diablo-like experience, but these performance hiccups can disrupt gameplay. Here's how to address these freezing problems until an official patch arrives.
Troubleshooting Path of Exile 2 Freezing Issues
Some players experience complete system freezes requiring a hard reboot, particularly during loading screens or in-game. Before resorting to more involved solutions, try these initial steps:
- Change Rendering API: Switch between Vulkan and DirectX 11 at game startup.
- Disable V-Sync: Turn off V-Sync in the game's graphics settings.
- Disable Multithreading: Deactivate multithreading in the graphics settings.
If the above adjustments fail, a more complex workaround, suggested by Steam user svzanghi, can mitigate the issue, though it requires repetition:
- Start the game.
- Open Task Manager and click "Details."
- Right-click
POE2.exeand select "Set Affinity." - Uncheck "CPU 0" and "CPU 1."
This method doesn't eliminate freezing entirely, but it allows you to close the game via Task Manager without a full system restart, saving time. However, you must repeat this process each time you launch Path of Exile 2, or a freeze will necessitate a PC reboot.
Until Grinding Gear Games releases a comprehensive fix, these are the current best practices for managing Path of Exile 2's freezing issues. For more gaming tips and guides, including optimal Sorceress builds, be sure to visit The Escapist.
