Profeelgood Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 So, I know it's only 2 hours after release, and I dunno if it's just me but.... I'm playing the first VHS mission. And the first go around, after 10 minutes, (getting to the necklace) the whole console shuts down. And I have to unplug the power cord, and plug it back in for the ps5 to boot up and repair the system. So I tried it a Second time. And same exact thing. After 10 minutes, got shortly after the same spot in the mission, (after leaving the cave with the necklace) and same exact thing. This is seriously disappointing....I haven't tried online yet, so it might just be this specific mission. But damn. I'm playing the digital ps5 version. Lemme know if anyone else experiences this.

ImAPirateSoSueMe Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Also playing the digital PS5 version and haven't had any crashes yet. I've done the tutorial (forced to), the first mission and two online matches. I did have a disconnect in my first match which sucked cuz I almost won as the Demon. Nothing is saved with a disconnect either so whatever XP you got, down the drain. Shame. Wonder if that will fuck with trophy progress as well.

Read somewhere that in the beta, one player quitting caused the whole match to disconnect. Hope this isn’t the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Profeelgood Posted May 13, 2022 Author Share Posted May 13, 2022 I did the tutorial just fine....dang man, two other games shutdown my console too. Elden Ring and Diablo 2. But never this fast. Hopefully it's just a tonight hiccup. I don't have my console in a tight space either. So it doesn't overheat or anything... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My second match, I had one person quit toward the end when I possessed them and made them down another survivor, and then a second one quit at the last objective and the game ended normally when I downed the other two.

It is overheating, this is what the console does when it overheats. I don't know why they implemented this feature instead of giving a warning. Mine used to do this with Immortals Fenyx Rising, I took panels off, cleaned it and left the panels off. I screwed the base back on and used bits of cardboard to close the gaps on the stand so it was stable. Mine wasn't and still isn't in an enclosed space but it still happens from time to time on Outriders. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowl-of-scouse Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Hi its not an over heating issue im having the same full system shut down, requiring the power lead to be disconnected then reconnect and repair all hard drives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickeloadagun Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 I saw on their Twitter people were mentioning their ps5s overheating while looking through the menu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowl-of-scouse Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Its seems to be the same behaviour as overheating but this is the only game i have that is causing my system to completely shut down, ive been playing the ps4 version for now as it doesn't seem to occur on that As a last ditch effort i am rebuilding database, if that doesn't work i will redownload if that doesn't work I'm waiting for a patch, these shutdowns can cause harm to your system so not worth the risk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OFFICER_OILDAB Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Im on PS5 Digital as well, played all day yesterday with no issues. Is it only with the missions that your console is shutting down? Or even in matches? I only did online matches yesterday, no missions, so I wonder if its connected to that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowl-of-scouse Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 (edited) During matches, leaving on title screen, during missions, after rebuilding database i have no longer had the issue occur, hope this helps/edit: after a couple of hours play the issue happened again Edited May 14, 2022 by bowl-of-scouse Added information Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fly1ngLettuce Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 (edited) The Game is unplayable with the amount of hard crashes. It crashes when I'm just idle for 5 minutes in starting menu, it crashes in game, sometimes it doesn't crash until after an hour of playing, sometimes just 20 or 5 minutes in. It's just unexpected. I did everything I could in safe mode, even did a factory reset with a USB as recommended in the Sony website.

Zeep_Xanflorp92 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 I’ve had one crash and that was during a Coop vs AI match, right as we made it to the victory screen. Haven’t had an issue other than that one. Weird how some are having huge issues while others aren’t.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skurkitty Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 (edited) Just spent a few hours on both the PS5 and PS4 versions, using both respective consoles (pro for PS4) and have had no issues so far. The only thing I've noticed is, the main menu doesn't appear to have it's FPS capped. My PS4 fan went into jet plane mode on the menu, but was whisper quiet in game. I clean my consoles/PC routinely, so my only thought is maybe people are having overheating issues due to dust buildup mixed with the menu being uncapped. Wouldn't really explain the in game crashes, but you do go back to the menu after every match, so maybe the heat isn't dissipating in time. ?

Lemme know if anyone else experiences this. the ps5 has small ventilation holes that surround the PSU and they easily get clogged with dust. you can take it apart and clean it, note that certain countries this voids your warranty. i've had it happen several times. i use a 500 watt air duster like the compucleaner xpert from amazon. spraying directly onto open circuity inside the ps5 can damage it, due to the power of the duster but if you spray it at the back of the ps5 directly the ventilation and console case prevent the full force hitting any components and the air just blows all the dust out nicely. i've had my ps5 overheat 3 times since launch, first time i had no idea what was going on.
