The game is not playable anymore. Crash every 5 min

As the title say, 2 days back I was able to play, yesterday made the Merhojed quest with many crashes and today I’m already crashing all the time… While waiting, time travelling… Warhorse, help.

Nemusí to být bez bugů, ale ať se to dá aspoň hrát freeplay po světě, když to padne každých X minut, neni to hratelný nijak :frowning:

That Pestilence quest in Merhojed breaks the game. After you give remedy to everyone it says to wait for events to unfold or something like that. Usually after 24 ingame hours the game just crashes, you cannot progress from that point.
For me it was between 5 - 6pm, if I just play the game, wait, fast travel or sleep it just crashes exactly like clockwork. So far I haven’t seen any solution what might work

ok then, maybe i should go back in saves before the merhojedy pestilence quest and stay in the free world for other side quests, if the game wouldnt be keep on crashing

Same for me, it’s in the known bugs I believe. After I question the captive the game crashes. There’s a workaround by killing him and taking a letter from his body, but after that game start to crash at random moments.
The problem is in the cutscenes, I guess, but there’s not much we can do about that.
Will wait for 1.4.2, and hopefully it won’t take weeks.

same here, i was able to trick the game by killing the bugger, but that is not the way to do it.

I’ve been keep on crashing after my Merhojed quest, the only solution is to complete or not to do the quest. I’ve completed it by getting the letter from prisoner, going to talk with Radzig and waiting a few days in Sasau or a totally different location. Then traveled back and ended the quest by talking with Melichar.

It was crashing A LOT when i was trying to wait a few days after the radzig talk but I’ve managed it in Sasau as I said, waiting in Merhojed wasn’t possible. After finishing the Merhojedy quest the game is not crashing anymore. So far.

try to take the letter, go to talk to radzig, save, talk to radzig, travel to sasau/rattay maybe, save, wait+sleep at least 2 days, save, go to merhojed, talk to melichar, game finished… it’s possible but you must be patient, it can take around 5-10 crashes for the whole event

Yeah I finished the quest this way, although I was going for Merciless, but that’s not the problem. After you experiece the crash once, in future quests, for example the quest I tried right after that with Sir Capon (“What makes the man” I believe) and it crashes in the middle of the first cutscene. If you try another quest with a cutscene, it crashes as well. I’m doing side quests atm without finishing Merhojed quest line and it’s working perfectly without single crash.

I had no idea you can get an achievement, because you must kill Runt. Before I started with KCD, I’ve heard Dan Barta to say “you can finish the game with only one kill” which means it’s not possible to do it non-lethal. Anyway, I’m one of a very few guys I’ve met online who plays the game with 0 kills possible. I’m currently at 1 kill (RUNT) and the Merhojedy quest will not give you one. From your text I guess you just killed the prisoner with letter?

You must finish the Merhojedy quest, it crashes when you’re in the last point which sounds like “wait how the situation approves in Merhojed”, unfortunatelly I play in Czech so IDK the sentence. Anyway, the quest finishes by talking with Melichar who tells you all city is good and they want to give you some presents (groschen), it completes the quest and I’ve got no more crashes after it even when hunting the knight and going on in the main story line.

Yes I came here to say that. After you refuse the coins from Melichar for healing the villagers there are no more crashes with other quests.
Well the quests connected to Merhojed, at least. I just tried Sports for Kings and it still crashes. But oh well, at least we can continue the main quest line.

Ive got a prob with Ester now, Ester bugged?

but no more crashes :slight_smile:
