Jedi Survivor gave my PS5 Pro AIDS

RagnarokIV

Battlebus imprisoning me \m/ >.< \m/
Jedi Survivor is dirt cheap at a store so I pick it up on the way back home.

Install on my PS5 Pro, and there's a 150GB patch to download (essentially the entire game again).

So I figure I'll play with the disc installed and then just let the patch handle itself later on.

So I'm playing and it seems ok. Only the first level. Then there's a part where you go on some dude's space ship and Jedi mind trick him to unlock his computer.
Then you leave and a bit of cringe kicks off where a fat tranny sith attacks you "the ninth sister" or something.

After a little shootout there's an explosion and Callum Kestral gets launched off the platform and —-
Oh fuck. My game crashed.

Oh that's not good…

So I restart the console and play again. Get to that cutscene and the game crashes exact same place. This time the screen isn't all fucked up.

Third time lucky? One more roll of the dice?

I play again, get to the cutscene. Explosion, the main guy is hit off the platform aaaand - crashed. Exact same moment in the cutscene. Screen is fine though.

What the fuck man.

So I google it and many people are getting the same crash at the same point. The exact same moment.



keeps crashing as im falling off Sejan's ship. Redownloading now, hope youre right 🤞

Just started playing this game today and it crashed during the cutscene fight after exiting the yacht… I reloaded and then it crashed again at the same exact spot… this post just saved my sanity

So I will actually wait for the patch to install. Otherwise it seems every time on Coruscant when you leave the senators yacht and after falling off the cutscene crashes the game.

A console game crashing you to the home screen is something I haven't seen in probably a decade. How bad is this game?

Man the title took me by surprise and I had a nice chuckle, thanks.

Sorry 'bout your purchase lol, wouldn't risk playing it until it's confirmed fixed, since that kind of hard crash ain't normal.

It seems to suggest a corrupted download/install. Try reinstalling the game.
 
Wait, so you decided to start playing while the patch was installing? You decided to start playing that broken shitstorm without all of the bandages applied?

The fuck man what did you think was going to happen? :messenger_tears_of_joy: :messenger_tears_of_joy: :messenger_tears_of_joy:

And that is one terrifying looking crash.
 
I played it a year after release and it was totally fine. Enjoyable 8/10 game; open world bloat but fun platforming.
 
I replayed it very recently on the pro with no issues. I do remember I had to disable VRR from the PS5 menu for the game to work correctly for whatever reason, so I'd try that first.

R RagnarokIV please report back and let me know if the issue is resolved after the patch, I nearly bought this game for my PS5 Pro the other day.
Will try it later today and let you know.

I do use VRR, so that's another possibility.

A crazy error. Can you skip the cut-scene to escape the crash. I would refund that console cancer too.

I just tried with the latest patch that's enhanced for the Pro.

I haven't disabled VRR, that's still on.
The only thing I've changed is to enable performance mode instead of quality (performance mode is better on Pro).

Got through the cutscene fine!
 
It's a good game underneath being a performance buggy trainwreck.

I still remember the game director at Respawn bragging they had a 3 year AAA dev cycle, and after it went golden for disc production was telling players the performance was great for release...fucking complete dipshit liar.

Only way I bothered to play it was through Game Pass.

Even performance is pretty decent these days. It really is a good game that just launched in a terrible state and needed like a year+ of patches. I've finished it twice now and it has been a very enjoyable experience.
 
My friend got AIDs in almost the same way. A gay guy spit on his arm, to mark where to insert his used syringe filled with heroin. Not sure which one is worse.
 
I had technical problems with it too. Jedi Survivor was rushed and is a mess.
Sony has the crash data. They should pressure EA.
