ghost recon wildlands crash to desktop | Forums

[Druout1944]

Since the last patch I am getting a belt fed amount of crashes on multiple systems. All CPU/GPU temps are within tolerance and all these rigs ran the game crash-less prior to the last patch. Trying different GPU driver versions has no impact.

i7 6700/16GB RAM/GTX 1070
i7 4770K/16GB RAM/GTX 1080
i7 960/12GB RAM/GTX 980Ti

Crashes frequently on all systems now.

1) I have been receiving crash-to-desktop (CTD) and graphics issues in Libertad since I purchased the game. My video card renders bizarre jagged textures and geometries at huge poly sizes. This occurs when I am on the ground in Libertad City or flying over Libertad City while the camera is pointing toward it. CTD occurs if too many geometries populate the screen. I have experienced this issue on two different AMD GPU setups (HD 4870, 2x RX 390). CPU and RAM load were not the issue during these crashes and Ubisoft has received all crash reports on this topic for at least six months.

2) There are a number of roads that I avoid in game due to random CTD. These roads include the first that the player must drive after loading into the game. Again, crash reports have been sent regarding these crashes which have occurred on both card setups.

On both issues, changing graphics settings and updating drivers had no effect. I have a Tier 33 character currently stuck in Libertad (loading causes CTD) because the camera looked at the city as I flew by it. Major fail on my part, sorry for ruining your game.

I read the whole forum I have to try some of the things I've read. But I want to know if someone found the definitive solution to that problem. I just bought it and the same thing happens to me. It's with the only game that I have that problem. My PC is updated, with Windows 10, updated drivers.

What was happening was that after I started Wildlands through Uplay, and I was at the screen with the four guys by the buggy with the yellow Launch button at the upper left corner, it would kick me out of the whole game to my desktop after about 20 seconds. Then I reloaded it to that screen again and quickly clicked on Launch and I started playing for about 30 seconds but this time I got a blue screen and my computer shut down abruptly. Then I read what you wrote and I thought about uninstalling and reinstalling Wildlands but first I wanted to update the motherboard to see if that fixed it. That's when I found out it was already updated BUT I SAW SOMETHING STRANGE WHILE IN BIOS. My processor was running at 4.4 GHz and it was set to Manual. I changed it to Auto and it went back down to 4.2 GHz. THAT FIXED IT! No uninstalling and reinstalling or updating needed. I played for 3 hours after that just to test it. And it worked with no problems at high settings. Everything I am using is low cost.

I figured out a fix for the crash that worked for me. Setting the CPU performance Shift in the MSI Dragon Center to Comfort fixed it for me.
Based on previous replies it looks like Wildlands is causing the systems to crash by CPU utilization, not GPU. Maybe it is forcing the CPU into Turbo mode for too long, causing the system to be unstable? I simply set the CPU Shift setting from Sport down to Comfort and now I've played hours without any issues. Good luck to the rest of you, hope this helps.

Which CPU are you using?

Cmon Ubisoft we payed a lot for this game and you can't release fix for crash

for those still having this problem:

the reason is some buggy code in either the nvidia drivers or the way this game interacts with them, which causes the game to crash when throttling for the right GPU speed.

the solution is:

Set the power options in Nvidia control panel - 3d settings, to "maximum".
