Game Crashing and Time clock continues running....

Hi. Time clock as in what? Your world clock or the game? Maybe if the game, then this may be a glitch. I would say reinstall your game.

We will need some more info to help you. What is the time counting for? Were you playing a time limited trial of some kind?

Thanks, I did reinstall, but the game continues to crash. In fact, it now crashes within a minute of running. I suppose I can try again, this time with all mods completely erased and deleted.

I am running Windows 8.1 on an HP laptop and an Asus laptop. I get the same problem on both computers. For several days in both the Daily Challenge games and the Origins games the advertising would sometimes run or sometimes would go to a black screen
from which I couldn't play the game. It sometimes worked after relaunching taptiles several times.

As of yesterday the advertising does not run before a game. This is okay in the Daily Challenge games, but in the Origins games the I click on the 'Continue' button to get 30 seconds extra on the clock, but the game starts without the advertising running.
Therefore the extra 30 seconds doesn't get added on to the clock.

If you can't fix this problem then how about just automatically adding an extra 30 seconds onto the clock when the game starts?

Okay, DR2 does have a clock but if you have no interest in playing the story for a little while just let the clock run down and you can continue to explore as much as you like. That is why it gives you the option to continue should you fail, I do understand
where you are coming from though.
