God Of War PC offers test fix for "out of memory" errors

Bachelor through a beta branch on Steam

Friday'south long-awaited PC launch of God Of War was generally received by people nodding their heads and muttering "Boy"—the highest praise a heavy heart can offering. A few would-be players, however, plant themselves unable to play, with the game throwing up "out of memory" error messages when they really shouldn't be out of retention. The devs accept been looking into the outcome, and released a potential fix on an opt-in experimental branch on Steam. It sounds like it fixes the problem for some people, but not all.

"We've seen a number of people reporting bug with 'Out of Retentiveness' errors on start upwards when the calculator should otherwise take ample memory," the devs explained in a Steam post over the weekend. "In our investigation of these bug we found that the vast majority of these were happening to people with new 12th Gen Intel CPUs with integrated graphics and that disabling the graphics card allowed people to work around the issue."

"We've prepared a hot ready to resolve this issue and would honey your help in validating the fix if you're willing."

If y'all want to try the fix, right-click on the game in your Steam library, select Properties, go into the Betas tab, and select "experimental" from the drop-downwardly menu. It'll then download the beta patch. If y'all don't see that option, restart Steam showtime.

The post does warn that "we have not completed our full round of quality balls testing on this build, then there could be instances of instability that we have not identified withal." Looking at the comments, information technology seems fixes "out of memory" errors for some players, simply a few are all the same reporting the game crashing and grumbling. Some indicate out they don't fifty-fifty have the supposed problem CPU. But hey, this is only the first stab at a test fix. Fingers crossed for a meliorate event when the patch launches properly on the main co-operative.
