I have been playing hell divers 2 a small while it ran completely perfect for about a week no stutters or crashes but after a while i started to get constant black screens and game crashes. I think this started to happen after helldivers got  a patch but ever since then I haven't been able to play at all its ether a crash right at the start of a mission or towards the end within the last couple of seconds on extraction. I have seen that there has been problems with the 7000 series with this but I've a older RX6600 and I get the same problems just utterly confused on what could be causing these problems with only amd cards.       

GPU: RX6600

CPU: Ryzen 5 5600x

RAM: 32g 3200hz

Some bugs are to be expected with a newly-released game, but this particular title seems to have more than usual reported. Might want to wait for a couple of patch releases and an updated AMD driver or two.

I have the same issue keeps crashing randomly

I bought the game to see how it would run on my setup and because it looks like, and is , a fun game

7800X3D w/7900XT playing at 1440p with all eye candy on/max settings

I'd get crashes shortly after landing on planet for first mission .. mostly within a few minutes but lasted one time for a whole 30'ish minutes before crashing 

Searching around the internet one person said to disable Ambient Occlusion and SS Global Illumination and see if game still crashes

I just disabled SS Global Illumination and Game hasn't crashed since .. made it thru the first mission .. and then failed the second mission (playing solo only) .. failed but didn't crash, lol.

Make sure your motherboard's BIOS is up to date

Make sure you have the latest AM4/5 chipset drivers installed from AMD.com website

FOR RX 7900 XTX USERS (but worth trying for different rigs experiencing the issue)

 After trying many things, here is what solved the crashing issue for me. It seems like it's a DX12 problem, simply set the game to DX11, and to do that, follow these steps:

1. Delete the DX12 installed on your PC : Open you "Run" command in your search bar > type %appdata% > Arrowhead > Helldivers2 > shader cache : delete everything inside of the folder > close tab.

2. Go to Steam > right click on Helldivers2 > properties > In the launch option copy paste "--use-d3d11" (Copy only what is in between the brackets)

3. Launch the game : Go to graphics option > Just make sure that "Screen space illumination" is turn OFF and that "Reflection quality" is set at Medium or lower.

I play in 1440p, native resolution, all UTRA settings (except for the options mentionned above) and my game have been working perfectly fine. Let me know if that works for you, Helldivers.
And see you on the battlefield.

My specs : RX 7900 XTX, Ryzen 7 7700X, 32GB RAM

Hey @Bikson1440p are you running any overclock/undervolt or anything at all? thx

[Bikson1440p]

Hey brother.
Sorry for the late answer.
No I don't overclock/undervolt.
The new drivers supposingly solved the issue but I tried to put all of my settings to max and the game still crashes.
That being said, AMD are aware of an issue causing the game to crash while using 2 screens and an RX 7900XTX (which is my case) so it's probably the reason why I'm still experiencing it in those conditions.
I set my settings back to the ones I gave in my previous post and everything works fine again.
Wait and see I guess.

Try the new drivers. It listed a fix involving Helldiver 2.

[Mr_Primitive]

Game runs fine but usually in the middle of the game about 30 mins in the mission the game crashes.

Specs:ryzen 9 7950x3d and a nividia 4080 32 gb of ddr5

It would probably be best to look in the Nvidia forum. That said the first thing I do when I experience crashes, is use DDU to remove old drivers. The software will let you choose between Nvidia and AMD drivers to remove. After this I move on to the reinstall process using the latest driver available for my GPU. If the game continues to crash, I move on to verifying files. If the issue persists reinstalling the game is the next step.
