Games crashes every 10-20 minutes, no matter what I do

Issue Type (Required):

Crash - During Play

Issue Description (Required):

The game crashes routinely every 10-20 minutes. Doesn’t matter what I’m doing, in a mission, lobby or even at the menu, it will crash. I’ve tried almost all your recommended fixes for various issues and no change. I was able to play the game no problems at all until the last update, now I can’t play at all.

Any suggestions for a fix?

Hi @GrumpyCat,

From your logs I can unusual references to your Nvidia drivers. I recommend trying a clean reinstallation of your GPU drivers:

Hi Lev, thanks for the response.

I’ve tried that and it seems to have not had any effect.

What I have found to work is to reduce the framerate cap. I was at unlimited and came down to 120 with no improvement. Then I dropped to 90 and things became much more stable, managed to play a few games with no crash.

Any idea what that means?

Crash report from playing after install with unlimited again:

Ohh interesting! I’m glad that you’re able to maintain stability with the framerate cap. Possibly something isn’t playing nicely with the latest driver version. I’ll pass this on to our Engine Developers in case there’s something we can do our side. Otherwise, hopefully the next driver release may straighten things out!
