KNOWN ISSUE: Unable To Launch Darktide After Patch

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Technical Support
146

I have FINALLY got my game to work by COMPLETELY reinstalling my drivers for my graphics card.

I have an AMD GPU, not an NVIDIA one, and ripped the guts out with a fresh install and the game moved past the crash and loaded for the first time since the patch ;-;

I am here to confirm that your method worked for me (Both my CPU and GPU are AMD) Hereā€™s how,

  1. I use AMD Cleanup Utility to clean my GPU driver and follow the steps as suggested on the AMD Website
  2. Search and download AMD software adrenalin edition and install it.

After restarting, I went into to game and it didnā€™t crash anymore. I can play Darktide smoothly now.

Thanks!

Likewise, this is a very long wait to fix a pretty fundamental bug. No roll-back in place???

Is there any solution to this? Iā€™ve done the admin thing, Iā€™ve validated my files, Iā€™ve restarted my PC, Iā€™ve made sure no AV is blocking it, wtf do I do this is ridiculous and feels like a scam at this point

Still canā€™t launch game, itā€™s been this way since the launch of the game. Iā€™ve tried every single fix you have posted and still nothing.
