Hi.

I have loved X-Com since the days of DOS and would love X-Com 2 as well - if it didn't crash all the time.

I have tried the game on 3 completely different computers over the span of 7 years. All of them crash randomly in the middle of a mission (no mods or DLC). I play a LOT of games, and I hardly ever have issues like that, so I strongly doubt it has to do with me.

There are many threads on the Steam forums about this, and the developers do not seem to be interested and/or able to do anything about this.

GOG is known for making games more compatible.

So my question is:

Is the GOG version more stable? Did GOG manage to do something to make it work better?

Thanks!

It should be the same version with steam with the exception of DRM and multiplayer.

That helps - that means I won't buy it again since it will only crash like the Steam version.

Thanks!

Curiously I play it without crashes, even though in the other UE game I had problems
In that other game 99.9% crahed were solved with -norhithread launch parameter

But I never had Steam so can't compare
