  • RAM: 4GB
  • Storage: 20GB of available space
  • GPU: Nvidia GTX 650 or AMD Radeon HD 7870

Make sure that your PC meets these requirements. If it does then you can move on to the software fixes.

Update your Graphics Drivers

Almost every GPU gets a graphics driver update. These are very important to keep your game running smoothly. People usually ignore them after buying a graphics card. They have pending updates from a year and then don’t bother.

This can result in games crashing, even the PC can crash from time to time because of outdated drivers. These drivers can be easily updated without interruption. If you forget to do them you can turn the Auto-update feature which will download it for you and notify you when it’s done and needs installation on the bottom right of the screen.

Driver Update Available

To update your driver for both AMD and Nvidia:

Nvidia

  1. Open Geforce Experience
  2. Click on drivers
    Click drivers
  3. Then click on check for updates
    Check For Updates
  4. Then click on download (if there is an update available)
    Download the update
  5. From here, you can choose between two options express and custom installation, express installs the core update, and custom lets you choose what you want to be added and what you want to be removed. The choice is yours.
    Express or Custom Installation

AMD

AMD’s driver’s updates are similar to Nvidia’s but the software is a little different from each other

  1. Open the AMD Catalyst software
  2. Under system click on check for updates
    Check for updates
  3. Then click on the Download Button

Update your Game

This is similar to updating your Graphics drivers and can also be as harmful to your game as not updating your GPU drivers. An outdated game leads to games crashing and not launching. People seem to ignore gaming updates too but luckily games cannot be played without updates.

This often happens when there is an update while you are playing the game. Some of the updates are not scheduled like others. These updates are mostly performance fixes, bug fixes, and others. To prevent this you can turn the auto-update feature on

Disable Anti-Virus

Anti-Virus can be annoying when it comes to gaming. People have reported that disabling anti-virus has solved many problems with their games. These softwares sometime does not allow a game to launch or worse crashes it while you’re playing.

Some of these multiplayer game files are protected with the Anti-Cheat system. If these files are changed, the game will crash. These anti-virus softwares sometimes think that those files are malware and try to delete them which results in your game crashing

If you are using the Windows FireWall then you can click here and disable it. If you are using a third-party software you can simply close it from the taskbar or the task manager.

Launch the game from the Launcher

Rouge Company can be found in two launchers Epic Games and Steam. Both of these launchers are great in their own aspect. One thing that they have in common is that they create icons of the game on the desktop. This is quite handy as you don’t have to wait for the launcher to boot up and you can directly open the game.

This can sometimes mess with the game. People have reported that the game always crashed when they launched it directly. When they launched it from the launcher it ran perfectly fine

If none of these methods work, you can contact customer support and tell them the problem. They know almost all the fixes to bugs as they created the game.
