/r/Doom Subreddit — Consistent doom eternal crashes – From /r/Doom
Go to Source
Hello all, I recently bought doom eternal on the first of august. I had just played doom 2016 earlier this year and loved it. Doom eternal is proving to be a difficult game for me to enjoy because of one thing that consistently happens. After about 45 min of gameplay(Sometimes more sometimes less) the game crashes.
Its a very weird crash too. Ive only had a single normal crash where the game just quit and shut down. Instead my screen suddenly goes black and stays that way. Regardless of key inputs and waiting nothing changes. The only way out that I have found is through doing a hard shutdown and hard restart of my laptop to get things to work again. This has been super frustrating.
I was hoping if this is a known issue with the game and if it has a workaround. For reference my laptop is a dell inspiron 16(I do not know the exact model but can get that information if needed). It is 12 days short of being a year old. My graphics are set to balanced(So not the ray tracing option) and my laptop can handle doom 2016 flawlessly(Had 0 issues when playing it). Im sorry if my post is somewhat stupid, im afraid im quite technologically illiterate.
