World War Z crashing

Donut417 · January 29, 2023

The game opens. I can invite/ be invited to a lobby. I can select my character and class. But as soon at we load in to the map the game freezes and crashes. Im running this game on a 1440p ultrawide on medium as I noticed the game does run a little rough. I have successfully played this game once, but that was before the latest update.

I have upgraded my GPU drivers a few weeks ago. I also checked the integrity of the games files thru steam, all looked good. Any ideas?

Edit: Saw that my 1 TB HDD and my 1 TB SSHD were not listed, thats where my games are installed. I always install games on a different drive from Windows. The HDD is pretty old, I had it at least since 2013, but possibly earlier. The SSHD is from a laptop from 2014 I believe.
