Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Technical & Gameplay Problems Post patch 4: Act III is profoundly broken

Update: Patch 5 is out and has fixed the laggyness for good. At least for me, it did.

Patch-notes are epically long and they must've fixed a ton of other stuff in this one - one issue that also got fixed for me was the game instantly crashing to desktop when I tried to set DLAA to "off". Tried this last night with patch 5 installed and it worked again as it should.


S.

Well patch 5 got rid of the stucked compagnions, but it freezes almost every 3 - 5 minutes in act 3, in dialogues, in fight, in camp - just everywhere it freezes - no audio, no movement - damn freeze and you think gosh game crashed again - but no, it runs but it freezes like avernus was swallowed by an icestorm. Very frustrating and lack of immersion.
PC - no mods - graphic driver updated

Odd, I loaded my old save and ran around the city and all the lag and texture issues seem to be cleared up, first time in a month, this is PS5

I'm in the "unable to load saved games occuring in ACT 3" subgroup on PS5.
We're all in the "Nonconsensual Beta Tester" main group on PS5.

Hi,

Playing co-op on PC without any probblems in Act1 and Act2. Entered Act3... 06/12/23

- Dialog faces started to melt
- Fellow players just frose unable to act with their character. Loading after quick save their characters appeared in places where they were few minutes before the frose. And were frosen again 5-30min. Rinse and repeat.
- After entering lower city game got unplayable right from the loading screen. They saw about 10-20% from their city surroundings. Some npcs were visible but sliding by in standing position. After several restars of the game and computer they just got stuck with black screen with 100% loaded message.

Any hotfixes coming up?
