I hope they fix that memory leak that makes the game impossible to play after 3 hours...25gb of ram used ๐Ÿ˜‚

Weird that I've logged multiple 3+hour sessions on my low-end PC with zero crashes. I guess I've accomplished the impossible!

The memory leak issue may only affect certain hardware or drivers maybe?

I have 7800x3d 32gb ddr5 and a 3070 so pretty good setup...

it's not really what's good or not, some devices function weird with some stuff. I've had the game open for the whole day or more and the only I ssue I had, before upgrading to 32GB (Had 16) is that the game went to the swap after alt tabbing for some time since it seems like nowadays 16 is nothing if you have 20 tabs open (don't judge me), discord, telegram, nvidia broadcast (takes 1 gig) and some other shit. In any cast, after switching back it took 2-3 minutes of moving stuff to the ram again and it all worked well.

Now that I have 32 GBs of ram I have had zero issues with the game, I believe it takes something like 6-7GB.

For reference I have a 5800 and a GTX 3080, but this is more of an issue with the API calls they are using and how is the processor runing those calls and how they interact with memory.

It has nothing to do with the performance of your hardware and everything to do with hardware/firmware/driver/software compatibility bugs.

Here I am wondering when I'll get three hours in a row to play a game. No kids even just life but wife around so things get limited compared to living alone. Mean if a safe and reload works, least that doesn't take too long.

I have a kid I am playing right when he goes to sleep then I forget that I need sleeping so I wake up extremely tired...repeat till complete shut down
