Crashing every time an enemy is being 'spotted' in game

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Technical Support
1

I have crashed multiple times in games, on different levels and difficulties, when an enemy has been spotted. The latest one happen when a PO was spotted and the second it had a red outline, my game froze and sent me back to the reconnect screen.

Error codes: 2001/2004/2014.

Play the game and wait for enemies to be spotted and see if it crashes or kicks me out.

50-60% common reproduction rate. I crashed 3 times in the same game yesterday and I wonder if this was the cause for me to be kicked out constantly.

Good initial suggestion above, please try Verifying Integrity of Game Files:

  1. Right-click Darktide in your Steam library sidebar
  2. Select ‘Properties’
  3. Select the ‘Local Files’ tab
  4. Select the ‘Verify the Integrity of Game Files’ button
  5. When complete, close and reopen Steam

If the issue persists, please can you provide us with a console log from a session the issue occurs so we can take a look:

Thanks in advance!

I verified the files, got a 2.2mb file that needed to be downloaded. Switched my PC off after doing this, when I came back from work and played again, I got 3 or 4 crashes in the same game again. Not all of them sent me back to the reconnect screen. But most did.
From what I can gather and what I noticed was, whenever something was spotted, whether enemy or plasteel, it had a good chance of lagging my game and a chance to disconnect me from the game. It hapened multiple times and kept getting the 2001/2014 error code. I had one disconnect happen when someone spotted a plasteel behind me, and the icon was stuck on my screen at the edge until I unfroze and lagged out. Another enemy spotted moment was a plague ogryn. It was spotted by a team mate and my game froze and DC’d me. A team mate spotted a crusher or bulwark and it happened again.

Here is the console log from a crash/freeze. I’ve checked what time it happened at and it was around 01:38. I am on GMT time. This was a crusher being spotted which caused the game to freeze, as the game was running fine until it was there and then it stopped.

@iceman,

Thank you for the update and the additional information. I’ve passed this on to our development team to investigate. Could you please also provide us with your Steam profile URL? (e.g https://steamcommunity.com/id/FatsharkLev/)

Thanks in advance!
