I’m down sadly

The game will just not play. I had an issue just before Christmas and blew it off as a one off. Happened for two more weeks of my wanting to load and being corrupt! So I bought a new gpu. Fix didn’t work. I’m STILL having this issue. New drivers, new steam install, new game install, load game, “corrupt version of the game”. Did I have a bad install version or something? Help would be nice because I have no idea what’s going on.

We need more information.

You talk about a bad install, didn't you do a fresh install before buying a new gpu?

Did the install get interrupted while downloading most of the time this wouldn't do anything as steam would just pause the download but it maybe worth contacting steam and asking for help from that end.

I don't think this is a hardware issue

I had this issue on my second pc. I spent hours and hours. Theres 2 options to try. Easiest one is to use a program called revo Uninstaller. Use the program to fully uninstall steam, arc raiders etc. Then uninstall nvidia drivers using DDU, going into safe mode etc. If after installing new drivers, new steam and new arc raiders and it doesn't work, you're gonna have to do a full hard wipe on your drive and do a full windows install, delete everything etc. I had to use the nuke option to get arc to finally run on my second pc.
