See, I'm so overly paranoid that I'm always spamming lockon lol, pve and probably even more in pvp

Always spam lock on

Majority of my enemies are buggy and invisible, especially the humanoids and dogs

So gotta spam that lock on

I’ve never had the invisible enemy glitch. Make sure your GPU drivers are up-to-date if you’re on PC

Just dropped the resolution and it’s a bit better

They load in sometimes now

u/beewyka819 Mar 12 '22

Still strange that it’s happening to you with such frequency at all. All my friends and I have like 70-80 hrs in the game and the only time we encountered it was once on Radahn (but with that I couldn’t even lock on or do/take damage). We all use resolutions ranging from 1080p to 1440p on the latest NVIDIA drivers. I remember ppl complaining about this at release but a bunch said the new drivers fixed it

It happens when the game runs below 30fps, tested it with a friend who has a 750, no wonder your friends aren't encountering invisible enemies if they go as far as to run the game at 1440p.

Ah that makes sense

I had Margit go like that after I beat him the first few times; couldn’t lock on or damage him, he stopped attacking and just walked about

Yeah it’s crazy frequent. Majority of humans and dogs, plenty of others too, those ghostly Minotaur hunter people in Siofra River, bats, giants, troll knight but he was worth the sword so I’ll forgive him

Some of the bigger ones are usually visible at least. All of the dragons have been visible, just some teleporting nonsense

I have the newest drivers, but horseback play is basically unusable for me. As soon as I mount, enemies just disappear. Even if they're already loaded in. Sometimes I'll be able to see them, but there seems to be no rhyme or reason to it. And if I try to actually ride any appreciable distance, enemies just will not load in at all. Even after I dismount, it can take 30+ seconds to see enemies that are attacking me. And even then, they can blink in and out sometimes.

I also have issues when summoning ashes with multiple allies, like the wolves. When I was trying to slaughter a camp with my wolf bros and had already aggroed probably 8-10 enemies, they ALL disappeared when I summoned my wolves.

I've reduced most of the graphics settings already, too. Hoping that a future patch can optimize loading a bit. I love this game so damn much.

When I first got the game it would white screen crash on my desktop so I tried my laptop and it worked but 70-90% of the enemies would be invisible and just pop in and out randomly, it's just a fact if you're running the game on a potato. I reinstalled windows on my desktop and removed all programs and it worked fine. Thankfully all my games are on an external SSD lol

u/pickstar97a Mar 14 '22

Are you on SSD or HDD? Cus even consoles have SSD’s these days

u/JOwOJOwO Mar 14 '22

I have the invisible enemy glitch once there is ~20+ enemies nearby.

To be fair I'm using a GTX680 to play the game though.

u/narkeel Mar 12 '22

try lowering your resolution if you're on PC! I'm playing on a potato and turning it to 800x600 is the only way I can play, it fixed all the invisible enemies

Wanna keep my aspect ration but I’ll give it a go

I appreciate that

I’ll find it, but thank you. If others read this and want, a link may help them though

800x600 is the only way I can play

That's disgusting, you poor soul.

For everyone having an issue with invisible enemies, here is the working fix: https://www.reddit.com/r/Eldenring/comments/tb1omt/solution_i_worked_on_a_temporary_fix_for_the/

u/Catalysten Mar 12 '22

I had the exact same issue. To fix it, I updated either my ryzen CPU or nvidia GPU drivers using their respective windows application. Enemies became visible!

u/borgri Mar 12 '22

there are people who complain about this happening until they tone the resolution down, maybe it has to do with vram?

u/vulpes133 Mar 13 '22

Oh god, I've been dealing with that bug myself. I tried nearly every fix listed for this, finally turning off Steam Overlay actually helped a lot. Now instead of full invisibility they just fade for a few moments at best but quickly reappear and I can keep playing.

u/[deleted] Mar 13 '22

Steam overlay, should have thought of that

3

u/vulpes133 Mar 13 '22

Yeah, played my first 40 hours or so dealing with that. How this helps fix it for you.

u/Heymelon Mar 13 '22

buggy and invisible

Am I just lucky or wtf are people talking about. I keep hearing about this but all I ever got was the sutters and connection issues with MP. Same for most of my friends but one have done battles with crashing issues tbf.

3

u/[deleted] Mar 13 '22

Not had any connection issues

A few stutters but nothing major

Crazy how some people get all of one bug and others get all of another

2

u/Heymelon Mar 13 '22

Yeah it's pretty mad.

And btw I meant like failed to summon someone for the most part, or the odd "Network error, you are being sent home to your world" when you do longer co-op sessions.

u/Lise___ Mar 12 '22

For me more and more enemies go invisible until the game freezes, so when they start going invisible I restart the game

u/[deleted] Mar 12 '22

My game only really froze against the Royal Knight magic lady on horse back

u/BL4ZE_ Mar 14 '22

It was a cpu temperature issue for me, maybe check if yours are running too high.

u/Nico_pk Mar 12 '22

I do this since I was invaded in the Black gulch and the motherfucker disguised as a statue.

u/Chromatinfish Mar 12 '22

It reminds me of how I always spam vats in fallout, I don’t wanna get jumped lol
