Players immediately figured this out, if you get more than 45 buffs on the HUD then the game instantly crashes.

Try using this mod until Fatshark fixes it.

To add to the above - we’ll be addressing this crash in 1.8.6. Apologies for the inconvenience.

Hoping 1.8.6 is soon.

Fingers crossed, thank you anyway

everyone just needs to unequip skills that give buffs to other people and stay out of coherency. your best defense against very easy crashes is being ‘that guy’. and I guess avoiding arbites because they have 2 rows of buffs active basically at all times for interacting with their keys while Darktide app is running.
