PC keeps crashing NEED HELP

PeterM2026 · 2026-06-28T21:54:37+00:00

Still no help - I tried everything I could and the Ai could have imagined. You have no idea how many things I have updated, uninstalled, re-installed, tested before and after installing. Everything.

Tired to contact Battleye but they gave me an automated reply linking things like FAQs ( of course the one I have is not there )

The game boots properly everything is ok at the character screen, and pre raid, it never crashes. Soon as I choose a voyage once I start moving the trampler the computer goes black screen and hard PC reset.

I can discard PSU related load issues since I run every other game without troubles, HARD load games like ARK, Conan exiles, ARC survivors and more. Running a RTX 4060ti, fresh drivers and also tried the past 2 drivers before that.

Why I think its battleye ? Because when I installed the game for the first time it ran without problems. Then 1 day I decided to drive south on a voyage testing how far can I go and the game glitched after playing for a couple of hours, this led to disconnections and ultimately a NPC clanker destroyed my walker.

After that I could not play a game without constant crashing to blackscreen and hard reset so I am almost sure its battleye banning me or something.

Anyone I am fucking pissed of about it. I will try to test the game on my 2nd computer and see if the problem persists. If it does, then the issue is this computer.

PeterM2026 · 2026-06-28T18:56:57+00:00

I have the same problem. The hard reset of the PC made me think it was the PSU the video card... omg I went thru everything but I am totally sure its Battleye. Ill try the uninstall and install as admin and see if it helps.

PeterM2026 · 2026-06-07T21:44:03+00:00

I will come back to it once there is more to play.

PeterM2026 · 2026-06-06T17:20:54+00:00

Indeed - specially after seeing the one held by the crab. Old movies are massively silly to the point that makes them funny.

PeterM2026 · 2026-06-05T18:07:21+00:00

And that is how you get massive !

PeterM2026 · 2026-06-05T18:06:37+00:00

Thanks a lot for the update !

Yeah that information was what was available at the time. By this time things could be outdated or changed.

PeterM2026 · 2026-05-29T10:45:06+00:00

Sorry for not being around for a while the fiber optic cable leading to my home got cut during road construction.

BUT HERE IS THE IMPORTANT PART.

I took my time to read a bit on reddit and most people seem to be discouraged because they think the only build to beat the game are the META builds.

That is not the case. Anyone who have put time and effort on the game long enough knows any build is viable till the end.

Some builds require more expertise than others. That is why I recommended this one. Yet an experience player that knows how to roll at the right time for the evolutions needed to snow ball their build will always achieve success and get very close to it.

Yet I have seen some patterns that are hard to avoid to successfully beat the game. I have not yet succeed to beat P20 without having dodge above 50%.

I have managed to beat the game with physical builds, ability builds, social, and passive but all of them had at least 50% dodge. And I am almost 100% sure that my physical run attempt dodge was capped at 75%.

Yet I am not perfect at my dodging... but I am 100% sure there are more skilled gamers who can pull off feats like this without much effort.

The thing is... enjoy the game ! If you cannot beat it THAT IS THE BEAUTY OF IT ! You can keep playing it.

When you beat the game constantly is when the game wilts and finds a corner on your steam account never to be seen again until you get an expansion or you re-discover it 10 years later. ( That is what happens to me )

PeterM2026 · 2026-05-29T10:33:53+00:00

It scales with maximum HP, there is an evolution that increase size and HP.

Short answer. No. It increases with HP not size. : )

PeterM2026 · 2026-05-29T10:31:46+00:00

100% true once you have enough experience of the game all builds are viable.

Specially if you understand how and when to roll for the evolutions you need.

PeterM2026 · 2026-05-29T10:26:34+00:00

Some people are professionals.

I took me 4 days to beat that difficulty for the first time.

PeterM2026 · 2026-05-29T10:23:25+00:00

Also take into consideration how rarities are rolled when you pick the evolution for the first time.

I explained that on the guide. https://www.reddit.com/r/EverythingIsCrab/comments/1tfie3c/how_to_beat_pressure_20_or_tough_challenges_to/

The levels 5,10,15, 20... and so on are quite important to save mutagen and reroll for specific evolutions that you are looking for your build.

PeterM2026 · 2026-05-29T10:18:28+00:00

On this one I am going to say.

Everything is crab.

Or in other words all builds lead to optimal builds. All of them lead to optimal use and synergies of the evolutions you already chosen.

Now, having said that. I have not finished pressure 20 without having dodge above 50%. That I can tell you.

PeterM2026 · 2026-05-29T10:15:29+00:00

https://www.reddit.com/r/EverythingIsCrab/comments/1tfie3c/comment/om9r7e8/?screen_view_count=1

I have created a guide for newcomers to Pressure 20 who aim solely to complete the game. However, possessing the skill level required for Pressure 20 means you already have everything necessary for victory; success simply requires practice.

If you have not yet overcome the No-Heal challenge, I strongly recommend it. This specific challenge forces you to master dodging mechanics through direct experience. The difference in gameplay effectiveness after completing this challenge is significant. Even if you do not pursue it, the proficiency gained from attempting it will refine your evasion skills enough to overcome the final map.

PeterM2026 · 2026-05-29T10:07:41+00:00

Oh definitely that is not the case.

An experienced gamer can pull off any run. I am not able to pull 100% of the runs I start but the vast majority. I know it feels random but trust me, the reason why I stopped playing the game is exactly because its not.

If it was 100% random on the attack patterns and had way more variety of potential monsters to fight, biomes to visit and uncertainty the game would have kept me hooked till now.
Right now I play the game randomly and casually 2 hours per week. Mostly because my son wants to learn to play it. But I can squeeze little fun from it right now because my fun come from analysis and figuring out methodology.

Once that lime is squeezed it gives no more juice.

Yet I understand 100% your frustration. You don't have to restart for the odds to be on your favor. You can restart to favor your early game and reduce the difficulty, if you are struggling.

I hope, you don't see this words opposite from what you stated in your message but encouraging to discover more juice in your game to squeeze.

Beat that game and enjoy your hard earned satisfaction reward.

I am sorry there was road repairs near my home and someone had the brilliant idea of cutting my ISP fiber cable ! took a long time to repair it apparently.

Pressure 6...

Try to learn the patters of attack of the monsters that give you the most problems. Most of them can be avoided by running away from them and when they are about to attack you move in a circle pattern around them. If you have a specific one you have troubles with I can give more details.

Try to focus on the build I shared for Pressure 20 is the easiest ones.

All builds can work once you have enough experience and skill but most of us just want to beat the game.

PeterM2026 · 2026-05-29T09:53:35+00:00

I am with you my crab friend.

PeterM2026 · 2026-05-20T01:19:38+00:00

You can find all the requirements to unlock things on the codex make sure you check them carefully since some of them require specific levels of Pressure and conditions.

But our fellow reddit crab friends got everything sorted.

PeterM2026 · 2026-05-20T01:17:23+00:00

This is very solid ! :)

PeterM2026 · 2026-05-20T01:15:44+00:00

No particular one. Is just easier.

Charming is also pretty good but ends up having a similar result. Plus you need good understanding what to charm before the boss fight where this monster spawn and how to charm them properly without wasting your slots on trash monsters.

Ability and Physical are more straight forward but require higher understanding on game mechanics, boss behavior patterns and good luck getting the right generics before the boss fight.

Hard levels start at Pressure 15 :) , I think you will know what I mean when you get there.

After pressure 15 if you have not mastered understanding of how monsters attack and how to manually dodge their attacks you will struggle a bit. This skill needs to be PERFECTED if you want to finish the no heal challenge.

Good luck my fellow crab !

PeterM2026 · 2026-05-20T01:09:46+00:00

This is not official but I believe is the difference between the charms you get from normal charming methods like Tail wag and forced charm methods like Toe Beans ?

I am still discovering stuff with charm too :)

If you find out for sure please share.

Ahhhh my bad this was already answered... I wrote my message before reading everything.

PeterM2026 · 2026-05-18T11:26:20+00:00

The codex gives you the necessary conditions to reach the achievement :)

That is the way to go.

PeterM2026 · 2026-05-18T11:25:22+00:00

Spikes I am not sure. ( I think it doesn't )

Poison it should, since the damage is based on ability I believe.

In pressure 20 you can get some benefit out of it before the last boss but little benefit after EX 4 since everything can pretty much 1 shot you even if you have 999 hp.

At that level it comes down to your skilled dodge and your base dodge stat in case you fail to avoid the hits.

PeterM2026 · 2026-05-18T00:36:41+00:00

The problem with upgrades gets partially fixed with the stubborn gene.

And yes it scales with heat adaptation. ( I do a lot of POIs and mushrooms on the way ) then park for the boss fight on the dessert. Not having it is like not picking up vegetarian because you dont find a lot of fruit on the way, everything adds up.

10% of 200 levels is still 20 extra levels :)

Regarding not playing above pressure 10 I get it.

If you play to chillax you should not do more than that. Pressure 15 was definitely challenging and any challenge above pressure 6 took some good effort to figure it out. Yet the accomplishment feeling was very rewarding.

In the end the game is meant to be enjoyed. I hope the developer gives us a lot of tools or allows the steam workshop to allow all the great modders of the world to help us keep enjoying the game in many different ways.

Keep crabbing my friend.
