SHADOW OF MORDOR KEEPS CRASHING PATCH

Not quite sure what is causing this bloat as I have never seen it before. There appears to be a major burden on the CPU while playing this game unlike other games. Also additional improvements in game stability.Д§.) Monitored CPU and RAM usage while playing a trial. Game is now rendering over 60 FPS at Ultra settings with additional improvement in the nvidia control panel. Able to improve both graphics quality and performance by manually over-riding graphics settings using Nvidia Control panel.

I'm currently further investigating any issues that could be on my end.Д¦.) See Update 6. 45 FPS, which is unusual since most other running a similar set-up to mine are able to play at over 70 FPS at the same settings. Once the game started however, FPS did not improve from previous play-through.

Once the game launched the intro screens clocked in at just under 4000 FPS (not a typo).

CAUTION: Disabling this method led to what I can only describe as my graphics card literally screaming. 970 should be able to run game no sweat.Д¤.) GPU load fluctuated between 60-80% (monitored using EVGA OC Scanner X)ДҐ.) Disabled V-Sync to investigate possible connection to low FPS. (Note: this comment is obsolete as crashing issues persist randomly allowing only between 30min.-1hr of play)ДЈ.) FPS took a hit after this update. Able to progress past previously impassable courtyard area after First Warden. 5 seconds) to respond to xbox controller commands.Дў.) Played 1hr. V-Sync and PhysX are enabled.ДЎ.) Start menu was sluggish. Game settings on 'Very High' in Full-screen. Ran stress test on GPU (EVGA OC Scanner X). Game still crashes.ДҐ.) Lowered detail settings to High, Medium, and low with physX and vsync disabled. Did not resolve.Д¤.) Attempt process 2x reviewing GPU/VRAM load on ultra. Did not resolve.ДЈ.) Running complete S.M.A.R.T and memtest (pass). Hard-drive Game Installed on: Seagate Barracuda ST2000DM001ДЎ.) Attempt process 3x (game crashed consistently).Дў.)

Processor: Intel core i5-4670k (3.4 Ghz) (Over-clocked to 4.4 Ghz post patch 1.3) **UPDATE 8: Possible FPS/stability fix utilizing CPU overclock. Recommend over-ride using NVIDIA Control Panel In-game graphics setting still poorly optimized. Now most graphics settings and post-processing are handled through the Nvidia control panel, which has improved both performance and image quality In addition things have appeared to become a bit more stable (did not experience a crash in 30 min. By over-riding I have thus far received massive performance and image quality gains (able to render over 60 FPS, though occasionally dips down to 55 when moving to a new area). **UPDATE 6: Over-rode Lords of the Fallen graphics settings and manually managed graphics settings through the Nvidia Control Panel. The game crashes back to desktop as soon as PLAY is selected on steam Issue now occurs primarily in the Memorial area. **UPDATE 4: Post patch 1.2 ongoing issues with frequent crashing. Still unable to proceed any further than that point. **UPDATE 3: Game has begun to randomly crash between start and the courtyard after the 'First Warden'. I'm not sure if this is specific to this game but I have never noticed this when starting up any other game in my library, unsure if this is indicative of a memory allocation issue. **UPDATE 2: An odd side note but I noticed that during start-up into the main menu approx. Repeated with lower graphics settings, v-sync disabled and disabled physX settings per recommendations. **UPDATE 1: Game crashed during battle with the 'First Warden'. Updates will be posted here with the most recent at the bottom As far as timing go it takes me about 1/2 hour to reach that point and the game appears to lock-up the first time I receive a notification (either quest log update or picking up an item) after opening the gate in the courtyard. Either once the gate opens or a short while afterward (approx. Scenario (Relevant updates 1-3): This issue frequently occurs for me after entering the courtyard beyond the First Warden and opening the gate. Additionally I have updates posted below that detail my current issues as well as reviews/trouble-shooting I've performed with each patch release. Detailed below are the scenarios I have encountered where I feel there is a specific pattern to my crashes. Lords of the Fallen has frequently crashed to desktop during both starting the application and playing the game.
