Has anyone else had a lot of the game crashing since the expansion came out? It's been terrible for me.

I've noticed if I sit AFK for a minute or 2 in the bubbles at the end of e.g. the pit, that my game will crash. First noticed it on the infernal hordes, thought it was a one off but happened a few times in a row now when testing it. Very odd, never had any crashes from release until this.

Different note - I'm too old for this evade spam build haha it's a lot of fun (mindless for when tired) but haven't found a comfortable key bind for it yet. I've seen people mention mouse wheels but mine isn't a free spinning wheel.

not had a single crash here.

Played yesterday on and off, 1 session was a good 2 hours or so.,

Played this morning for another 45 mins without any issues.

Yes, loads. Feels like a memory leak. Happens on my PC and Series X.

Tried re installing the game at all? (On PC)

I haven't, no. But I have verified the files and no errors are shown. To be honest, the problem isn't on my end ... it's Blizzard's. There are tons of people experiencing crashes this season. I'm 99% certain it's a memory leak ; it happens after about an hour or so of gameplay and after teleporting / loading into a new environment. If I play in shorter bursts of 30 - 40 minutes I don't have any crashes. It's the same on console, too.

picked up the dlc on Friday and played through the new campaign over the weekend. Didn't have any issues with 32gb ram but play sessions where only 1-2 hours each.

the campaign just felt like a slog to get through, the last half was pretty much just skipping dialogue and movies. Didn't care for any of the characters this time around, way worse than the base campaign.

The dlc campaign levelling was weird, so much XP from the campaign turn ins and almost nothing from killing monsters made it feel like the best approach was to just run past everything as all the non elites felt totally pointless
 
It's a memory leak. If you turn off hardware acceleration in windows settings, the battlenet launcher and any browsers you have running in the background, the game won't crash.

That's pretty much what I did, I also advanced the seasonal quest a bit and ended the campaign around level 57 or so I think. The post-campaign "priority" quests got me to 60 easily. I skipped most of last season so the combination of a new class (and associated uniques) and a few new mechanics is keeping me interested for now, but I can't see me fully min/maxing. It's a shame the general loot is still so bland, there's very little excitement in picking regular stuff up still.

The group activity was kind of interesting, easy enough to work out the mechanics and got through them in a group finder setup without too much difficulty. Hopefully there's a few more layouts to rotate through over the season.

Yes, it's pretty much Spiritborn or nothing. You can have fun on other classes but the SB is just so over tuned, they've actually buffed it more too (standard modern Blizzard).
 
Hello, looking for players to get into this with, how do I join the club? any chance of a boost please? I'm really put off with the grind!

Thanks! :)

No point boosting (it's possible to get to 60 in under 15 minutes) otherwise you'll end up like the hundreds of other people crying on reddit that they have no mats and no aspects and can't play the game because their max level toon is too weak

Oh really? how on earth do you get to 60 in under 15?! I've skipped campaign and started a Rogue build from Icy Veins and I'm only level 8, been playing for 2 hours now :cry:
 
Came back to try and get some more monies worth, not bought the expansion though as it really doesn't seem like it adds anything of value other than an over tuned class for the time being. The loop feels a bit better in the way that all of the activities are linked in some way. I hit max level just as it was feeling like a slog, then pretty smooth until around paragon 120 where it's slowed right down again. The memory leak crashes are killing me though, they were every 2 hours or so with some slight freezes/hitches as a warning when one was coming, but after fiddling around with various fixes it's now even more broken, they are pretty much at random now after 30 minutes or so with no warning.
 
Strange after the last round of updates I’ve not had any issues with D4, comfortably done many hours without the game locking on me.

Plenty of other bugs though, such as not being able to select the alter for torment bosses and needing to reset the dungeons to clear. Or on a couple of occasions the boss prompt appearing mid-pit when I’ve still got half the timer left, or the event not ending after completing the last requirement/killing the boss.
