Anyone else having issues with the game freezing? I’ll be playing fine for a few minutes and then everything will freeze up for a few seconds. The sound keeps going but the visuals freeze, then eventually it recovers and keeps going. Until the next time it freezes.

What I’ve played so far has been great otherwise, just wish I could stop it freezing!

I'm having the same issue.

Was hoping to just jump straight into online, but it is either not up yet for PC or you need to do a certain amount of the single player first?

drat, game looks incredible on my ultrawide desktop. Bummer the cutscenes are 16:9, but whatever.

Right? I was only able to play for about 30 minutes, but I thought for sure they would run the cut-scenes fullscreen at 3440x1400.

It’s happening worse in cut scenes which doesn’t make any sense, the first couple of shoot-outs have been fine

I'm having the same issue. I tried switching from Vulcan to DX12, Fullscreen, Windowed, Windowed Borderless, vsync on and off. No luck yet. Looks like it's happening to a lot of other people also.

Game is gorgeous as hell too.

Two Questions:

1. Is there any sort of “gotcha” thing where if you do too much (or any) of a side activity before a certain point you limit yourself? I am thinking of GTAV and investments mostly. Spoilering it for me is fine if so.

2. How often does Kid Rock’s hit song “Cowboy” play, because it’s a banger!

Did you guys who have issues download the latest drivers Nvidia just released for the game?

Also I agree the game is gorgeous even on my laptop and the pacing is extremely my thing. I enjoyed just exploring sceneries in far cry primal and skyrim but this is something else.

Is it flickering and cutting off? I had this and I fixed it by turning off vsync.

I do get the freezes with sound playing other folk are here talking about.

didn't really mess with the graphical options much, other than vsync and borderless/fullscreen. Freezes happened with the old nvidia drivers and the new ones.

It's a reoccurring leitmotif throughout the story, and that harmonica sting will play whenever Arthur gets on a horse, off a horse or drunkily raises his fists in anger.

First of all yes but I think it's in the later chapters which is why we say make a "free roam" save file around chapter 2 or 3

beginning of Chapter 2 really. though everything’s not technically available until you get the fishing rod a few missions into Ch 2. but beyond that you can go wherever and do whatever as soon as you get down from the mountains

Got the same error on a Ryzen 3600 + 2070 Super. Tried updating BIOS, graphics drivers, verifying integrity, turning off Windows Firewall and Defender, removing all other apps from startup, nothing works. The launcher is an immovable object.

On the console version if your gun was holstered you could (on foot or horseback) slightly press the right trigger/r2/fire button to start a draw, and pulling the trigger completely started a deadeye shot. Don't know how this would work with a keyboard and mouse.

Okay, I was able to get into online. No issues. Game is super beautiful of course. I previously played on Xbox One X, it was native 4K with HDR, and 30fps, it looked really beautiful but the PC version still manages to blow it out of the water.

Same :(

I hope they fix it and I don't have to go and buy a SSD just for this one game, because it happens every 5 minutes and it takes me out of the game. The framerate when it's not freezing stays at a pretty consistent 50-60 FPS so I assume it's just some problem with the game loading new areas.

e: Oh I have an i5, I guess that's the problem. Welp!

I've got the stutts too, another victim of the i5. Also for some reason it wont start above 1080p unless I turn everything to low, and even then only 1440. Looks pretty nice on ultra everything though!

Oh god, not again.

So my issue is that performance is all over the place. One second I'll be getting 60fps, perfect and then I'll take 5 steps and it drops to 35fps or so. But if I go back to where I was at 60fps it goes back, looking at the same area so it's not a rendering issue. It's loving bizzare.
