    Crashed about 4 times in the last 2 hours. Twice in BU sector space (idle), once on DS9, and another time I had stepped AFK and when I returned it had crashed to desktop. Can't remember where my character was when that happened.

    I have not been able to see any report IDs, they seem to be crashing too.

    Crash - Character select screen
    Crash - standing on Risa
    Crash - Flying through Sector Space

    in all cases the reporting box disappears so fast I couldn't get the Error Report #

    Thought I would try to clean up the mail in case this might be causing a problem. No good. Still crashed.

    I'm in the same boat here buddy. Put 138 hours into the game the last 2 weeks according to steam. Played no problem. After patch today...........constant crashing every 10-20 minutes or so.

    This. Exact same thing has happened since the launch. Until this is fixed, I can't even play, it's not worth the time to jump on, to get randomly kicked off in short order. Please fix.

    Patch has introduced a crash error, when in game randomly it crashes to desktop even when idle. Have a fleet members experiencing the same issue. Force verify does not fix this, it keeps happening.

    ..regression testing...

    Well guys it's on risa every 28-45 minutes and come to think of it, it's as the horga'hns hunt starts all 6 crashes so far, the crash report # and box dissapear before i even get a number.

    Perhaps if messing with server stability cuases this crash, then maybe the stability needs left alone?

    Crashed four times. Three on Risa. Once on New Romulus. All within an hour and a half time frame.

    Couldn't submit a crash report, because the report feature closes out within two to three seconds of popping up.

    The launcher verified the files in all instances of restarting. No problem there.

    If it matters, I was playing through Steam.

    ^^ What he says...

    The devs are already investigating it though. It's time for me to crash as well (to bed that is).

    Nerf is OP, plz nerf
    That's quite the paradox, how could you nerf nerf when the nerf is nerfed. But how would the nerf be nerfed when the nerf is nerfed? This allows the nerf not to be nerfed since the nerf is nerfed? But if the nerf isn't nerfed, it could still nerf nerfs. But as soon as the nerf is nerfed, the nerf power is lost. So paradoxally it the nerf nerf lost its nerf, while it's still nerfed, which cannot be because the nerf was unable to nerf.

    I call it, the Stoutes paradox.

    This time during Risa Daily, Just as the Horga'hns hunt is ending wich i was not involved in, and this time i noticed before the cryptic error box disapeared in only 15 seconds, it said requesting error report # and then ended on unknown.

    Ialso play through steam, is this a push to force ark on us?

    since the patch, my game has crashed to desktop around 10 times this last couple hours.

    first i was putting things on the exchange.. it did it 3 times in a row..
    next i entered a STF.. it crashed when i was changing maps. coming in and out.

    then now just sitting at the bank moving stuff around, it crashed a few more times.

    i am verifying all the files now.. for the 3rd time..

    I dont know what u bugged in this patch, but from this one the game suddenly crash in PvP. I did 3 match before and 3 times the game crashed without no apparently reason :confused:

    Is this happening only to me or what?

    I saw four fleetmates get this issue at the same time, all in different places, two of which were in a queue with me and another fleetmate who 'survived' it.

    My science team theorise that it's either localised ion storms causing total ship malfunctions or some new Elachi device being tested by the Tal Shiar.

    My team of 5 crashed on Khitomer Elite today. Couldn't submit a report number as it also went seconds afterwards. I also think the whole thing went down for the most part cause seconds after relogging back in ESD was pretty much empty of ships.

    I read a theory that when a DOff mission nears completion is causes a crash, no clue if that is true or not. The missions I have running are a hour or two out.

    Random crashing
    not zone specific
    crash report.... not possible.. that crashes also.
    Force verify - does not help

    Patch (-100% resistance to stability)
    (poor regression testing) - expose
    critical hit
    Crash.

    :P

    Crashed while getting to the logout button. Perfect time to crash, eh? lol. :-)

    Not adding much, but here's my input.

    Crashed twice, once on Drozana Staton at the tailor, and once going into Delta Volanis.


    No previous history of crashing prior to the patch, but both of these crashes came within an hour of each other following the patch.

    Thanks to everyone who has submitted reports in this thread! They've helped us track down the issue, which should be resolved in tomorrow's patch during our emergency maintenance.

    Cheers,

    I was on Risa working on my account bank when the crash happened.

    I got the error message to type in the issue, however, it TOO crashed without giving me a ticket number to provide to you.

    I'd rather have the server brought down now and fixed than to constantly keep crashing randomly especially when you people KNOW THE ISSUE! why wait? FIX IT NOW!

    So my game crashed about 8 times today, with no patterns. I play a bit in Crystalline Entity Elite and right when it's finished, crashed! Also while walking around First City... BAM crashed and no time to enter the reason for crash in that popup because it crashes as well. Oh and I was alt tabbing to browse some topics on this issue and BAM crashed again. It's pretty comical but really ****ing annoying. Everything was fine until you guys ****ed up the patch... and since I'm here, Are you guys ever going to fix the KDF Fireworks Launcher console so players can actually claim the fireworks? It would be nice to have that fix before some of us die of old age.
