First game to just have constant crashes on my seven year old RX480, which is great since otherwise the game runs completely fine. Support doesn't seem to want my crash reports either, I guess in Todds world, I should just throw the thing in the trash for a game that does literally nothing special in the tech department.

To be fair, that GPU is long past EoL. Even the 7xx series doesn't receive support/driver updates anymore.

EDIT: It was late, totally misread it as GTX not RX.

RX480 is an AMD card that came out 7 years ago, not the GTX 480.

Maybe he thought you typoed RTX since nvidia uses that now instead of GTX. But there is no RYX480 so idk

It was late and I totally misread it as GTX instead of RX.

Also my bad for not replying to this sooner. I thought I did.
