Its getting to the point where im afraid to play the game in case i cause damage to my laptop,when the map tranfer stalls i have to turn off my laptop via the power button,task manager wont kill the game,my laptop also is able to play on max settings no problem,would appreciate it if cryptic even acknowledged the problem
Have you tried turning on reduced file streaming in the advanced options? I've not had any more hangs since turning this on.
I'm glad to see all these posts and threads much like this. Though this may not entirely rule out anything on my own end, I'd bet the farm it's more of the same unplayability issues only more severe. IDKWTF is wrong with this game recently but someone needs to cut it out.
When I try to transfer to certain maps, my client get stuck saying a specific percentage and hangs. It starts to hang around 40%. I have to kill the program and start up in order to log back in. I am not getting any error messages with this. Is anyone else having trouble. I am running the client in Safe Mode since the game is unable to use DirectX 9.
I know this is an older post in terms of the OP but I set everything to the proxy US server and I've not had nearly as many issues as before. I get a hang once in awhile but nothing like before. the file streaming fix suggested in here didn't work for me but the proxy server did. idk what's up with that. figured I would pass this along.

have been away from the game for afew months and tonight tried playing the episode "midnight" and it hung at the transfer map.had to reboot.I thought these issues were fixed?
Just thought I would Chime in, Last Week when I brought this up with Laughing Trendy on twitter, she stated that she is hopeful that Tomorrows 12-Hour maintenance will cut down on a lot of these issues.
I for one have been plagued by this particular issue for a while now, so I am hoping this helps.
