The New Collosus rant

Archra · 9 Sep 2026 at 20:34 · permalink

Ok I need to rant.......I had up to now a couple of screen freezes in the middle of gun fight. I got no idea how long I am into the story, but it is right after visiting the old farm house.....and some fights feel WAY to unfair or I am just bad at them...and when things are going all to well...MY GAME FREEZES... And just fyi I am playing on normal mode.

Either I have to force shut my PC or fo the good old CTRL ALT DEL to get the task manager...I am running the game from Steam and I NEVER had any proplems running Old Blood nor The New Order. My PC is decent enough and runs other games like Warframe with no problem...hell even DOOM 2016 and Eternal was smooth.

Also....the UI is...shit...even navigation I was lost where to go and it showed when had to navigate the ruins on Manhatten....speaking of Manhatten...my screen went dark right after speaking with Grace so missed some details.

Pro's of the game, love the way the Resistance have made a cosy home on a uboat....cons...I don't like how Grace treats Sigryn and even Anya gave her some stink eye.

End rant...Ya all have a nice day now.

Lol yeah I am more use to playing as an unstopple force of nature even in a way BJ is in lore.

maybe it’s your pc, what are your specs?

Well the issue with courthouse is that it is the best designed level in the game, it lets you have so much ammo, armor and health that its completely different from other levels in the game. Its only a matter of remembering where all the stuff is and you'll breeze through.

Really disappointed from the drastic downgrade from old blood/new order too, dual wielding weapons punished you with slower move speed and accuracy but you felt like a tank while doing it. That's game design

I am honestly a little unsure at this point. It was built by brother after I saved up back then for a prober one and before the rise in ram prizes.

There is instances I can't see where the hell they are coming from and found a way up before my game frooze. Yeah it feels like a downgrade and just switching weapons takes forever.

I’m with you on the Resistance base—it’s one of the coolest settings in the game. Grace can be pretty harsh, though; some of her interactions with Sigryn felt needlessly hostile. The exploration and atmosphere still make the occasional rough edge worth it.

The games targeting systems for AI enemies was changed as well so thats probably where the increased difficulty feels like. If they are in your screen they have a very high chance of just being able to shoot you.

go to the performance tab of task manager and tell us the cpu, ram, and gpu

Mine froze as well. Cap the frames to 60. That's what fixed it for me.

Does not need to be that low, 200fps cap is the sweet spot. Anything above it is unstable

Archra · 9 Sep 2026 at 20:38 · permalink

Thanks for the info...I found it it was capped at 1000 for reasons I don't know.

Sorry late reply....I had to start the game in safe mode to get past the all to many game freezes. Finally got the new body.

As for my rig if I understood how it is and left out the more personal details.

Processor AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor (3.60 GHz)

RAM 16,0 GB

Systemtype 64-bit operativsystem, x64-baseret processor

Grapic card : AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT

I don't know if my brother has the recipts as I asked him to save them just in case. It should be a decent PC for 8000dkk that is aprox 1240 "fredom money"
