Game freezes as soon as I press a button to access main menu


Recommended Posts

Hello as title says i'm having this issue since several days now, it only used to happen if I alt+f4 the game but after a pc restart it always went away. Nowdays tough i'm unable to access the initial screen menu no matter what and the only workaround I found is to qasmoke and load a game from there but it's really inconvenient :( 

If anyone has any solution for this I will gladly try, thanks in advance for help !

Well, the most obvious question is why are you pressing Alt F4 so much?

You can turn that off in your settings. You gotta scroll to the near bottom, but it's there.

 

?

 

How much RAM ya got? What video card? These things can make a difference in performance.

that's already all off and yet when you close the game trough the menu it forces a save

There are 3 options when you exit........Which one are you using?

 

?

both options create a save file

Not supposed to........Only the T key is supposed to create an exit save. The other simply takes you back to the main menu & you exit normally.

 

You don't, by chance, have a pirated copy, do you? If so, that's yer problem.

 

?

Hmm... freeze, not crash to desktop?

 

Just in case - try blocking Fallout4.exe in your firewall, see if it fixes that.

 

Because i'm having a guaranteed CTD when i press the "any key" in the main menu, this is the exact moment when the game dials up on Bethesda.net. Simply blocking the internet access fixes this CTD for me at least.

This issue and solution have been reported across the web ages ago, and i'm having this problem for around a year already.

When you want to quit: Press ` then type qqq and enter.

Yea it's a freeze unfortunately, i have to open up task manager every time that happens cause the game is stuck.

 

Do you think blocking it from firewall would help? I'm already launching it from steam offline mode, always did that, so in theory the game shouldn't have accessed internet like ever

wouldn't that have the same effects as closing the game with alt+f4, so not a safe ish way of closing the game?

you might find more help at the Fallout reddits.

The game is notorious for freezes and crashes. It is more poorly optomized than oldrim. Plus it lacks a lot of the crash fixes modders made for oldrim.

IIRC the Steam Offline mode doesn't stop the games from connecting to the web.

There are youtube videos where some people claim either playing the game offlineand blocking their internet while playing or blocking the game connecting by using the firewall allows their game to play. 

You can google it and see if that helps you.It never helped me.

For some reason after cutting off the connection yesterday, it's not working again for no reason without further actions

I assume this would be because that game uses your Steam account for multiplayer?
