Hi guys,

I just got this game and I'm on a computer that's literally a week old.

AMD Ryzen 5 3600
16 GB RAM
AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT
Philips 278E 4k monitor

As far as I know everything is updated to the last drivers etc.

I run the game at 4k with high settings.

I'm into the second mission, so the first real one after the tutorial. Every couple of minutes (say 10, 15) I see the entire screen flash green, go back to the game and then it's frozen. That's... also how I found out the game doesn't autosave, hehe.

It's really annoying and it makes the game virtually unplayable. Any thoughts?

After experiencing the same issue with Shadow of the Tomb Raider, I lowered the resolution to 1080p on both games and was able to run without problems. Is there a specific problem with 4k gaming that I should be aware of? After all, the framerate was fine.

Is that also a Unity game, as a matter of interest?

Please attach here the game log:

To see the AppData folder you'll need to enable View Hidden Items in File Explorer.


DXDIAG is a program you run from a command prompt or the Windows start menu 'run' dialog box (or 'search programs' in Windows 7 or later). After running it will open a window and start collecting info with a progress bar in the lower-left corner. When it completes click the 'save all information' button and save it to a file then attach that file here.
