Steps to Reproduce
- Have a PC with my specs maybe
- Load into a match
- Get "lucky" and get your system crashed
Explanation
The game crashes my PC. Not the just the game closing, but the whole PC just shuts down.
I had this happen for the first time after the Trickster's comeback chapter (Reported that here with issue #3695) and ever since it randomly happens. By now this was the 5th time. Mostly the PC will just shut down, once I got stuck in a blackscreen and I had to shut down my PC manually, bc nothing reacted anymore.
Everytime this happened, it was within the first minute of the match.
Sometimes right after loading in, sometimes 20 seconds later, this time 40 seconds into the match.
Windows 11 is up to date (always is).
Drivers (GPU and everything else) are up to date (I check them regulary once per month).
PC did not overheat or had any other problems that would cause a crash.
In the few seconds before the system crashes, I hear the fans go crazy. That's all the warning i get.
I've been playing DBD a couple times the last week and all went fine.
I've been playing for over an hour before this crash and it was fine.
This only happens with DBD, not with any other game.
I heard that DBD had some trouble with AMD hardware a bit back. But I can't find any information about that anymore.
PC specs:
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7700X 8-Core
32 GB RAM and 250 GB free space on my SSD.
