I would like confirm what DarkFrost1989 experienced. Game is not playable at all now. I'm lucky because I have spare GTX 1060 , so I can swap devices . But many of us is using only Intel card atm. If software/drivers cannot be developed as it is done by competitors , what is de point to produce GPU cards at all ?

Version 101.4826 is better , now I can play longer . I'm not talking about hours , but minutes. Game is not crashing in items and skill menus anymore, but still is unstable. I was able to play in Atlantis city about 10-20 minutes maybe till next crash. Before it was about 2 min. So I see a progress somewhere .

Hello DarkFrost1989

Thank you for posting on the Intel® ARC™ Graphics Communities. We know there have been several issues when trying to play Starfield on your Arc GPUs and we know this can be frustrating, at the same time, we are putting a lot of effort in trying to improve the overall experience of this game.

Based on your post the game is crashing around every 5 minutes or after closing the inventory menu is this 100% always happening, based on the post from @DKaszper now it happens with longer sessions and is not crashing in menus. We would like to know the exact way the game is crashing and steps to check if the issue can be reproduced from our side as well as if there is any error message or if it is just a crash to desktop. If possible sharing a video would be better.

In addition, we would like to know the graphics settings you are using we at the moment recommend using the High preset for better stability as well as having Resizable BAR enabled for better performance and compatibility.

Best Regards,

Hugo O.

Hi
In user's Appdata\Local is a Starfield folder are all messages from the crash. I've checked it briefly and does not contain any sensitive data , fill free to see if you can find any interesting there.

Previous crashes were as well during loads , sometimes the loading ring was stooping and few sec later hello desktop again.
Now game just freezes for a sec and again desktop. No errors , nothing.

Hello @DarkFrost1989, @DKaszper

Thank you for sharing the information related to these crashes. So from what I see the game would crash 1-2 minutes after loading a save game and also after closing the inventory menu. We will look further at this problem but first I would like to confirm, Where was the game downloaded from? Is this the Steam version or the Microsoft Store version?

Today I had game crash sometimes after opening manu Q (Items, maps,skills etc) to be precise , when I tried to close menu.
Game is PC version from Steam.
My specs are in DXDIAG file if needed.

In game inside of buildings , flying in the space game is rock solid. I think that happens when static screen is changed to game screen. Some people noticed that frame rate may have something in common. But they can set fps limit only on Nvidia devices. Here is set same like screen refresh rate is..,

Hello,

I am having the same issue as well and wanted to chime in with my observations that align with much of what DKaszper previously said. There's two things that seem to increase the likelihood the game will hang then CTD. I only have experience with this game on the 4826 driver.

1) Changing scenes. Going in\out of the ship, in\out of a building, launching into space, grav jump, accessing ship inventory while on board, accessing research or crafting stations, vendors, travelling via NAT, cutscenes...etc. I can usually get away with ~2-3 of these in any combination before I know the next one will cause it to crash or crash shortly after.

2) Going into the Inventory\Map\Skills menus. Similar to above, I can usually get away with ~2 of these before the game instantly crashes when I escape out or within 2 minutes thereof.

I do get the occasional random crash even if I don't do any of these things but the above two categories of actions are guaranteed to cause it in short order. Doesn't seem to make any difference if I have the settings on Low or Ultra. I'm confident it will get sorted out.

For reference my system:

Intel Core i9 13900K

İntel Arc A770 256 Bit 16 GB Graphics Card

64 GB 4800 mhz Kingston Fury Impact RAM

Samsung 2TB 980 PRO NVMe2.0 (C:)

WD Black 4TB SN850X NVMe2.0 (D: where games are installed)

Intel NUC 13 Extreme Board\Case\PSU

I confirm all above. Much Crashes between Changing scenes. I solve inventory crash problem with mod Undelayted Menus (no more inventory crashes) Also i get some frames with mod for xess support mod.

Notes

There is very bad performance on some locations (like New Atlantis ( outer city location 29 - 37 - LOW/MEDIUM/HIGHT settings does not mater the difference is 1-3 FPS) and my cpu used in 4% (almost not used) instead GPU use 100% / No optimization on arc770 !!! ( xbox game bar informations).
At the last i setup my System Virtual Memory to 32GB ( Fewer Crashes).

I use latest drivers 31.0.101.4826

and latest Starfield version 1.7.33

I confirm all of the above

Some Fixes
Menu Crashes solved with Undelay Menu Mod from nexus
Setup SystemVirtual memory on 32GB cause few crashes
Nexus xess mod improve fps
Low - Medium-Hight Graphics Presets - Change performance Only 1-3 FPS on Outer Locations of New Atlantis (Bad Optimization)
Nexus mod remove Shadows and GTAO Cause 60 FPS zero crashes BUT very ugly graphics (I don't recommend it)
Remove TAA improve performance with some graphice glitches (I don't recommend it)

GAMEBAT STATICS
GPU 100%
CPU 4% ( Almost not use - BAD OPTIMIZATION)

Driver Version: 31.0.101.4826
Starfield Version: 1.7.33
