just crashed to desktop as well. Was almost done, the cart was almost on the other side... after ages, thanks to my underpowered delta, when all of a sudden, the game crashed... great stuff :mad:
Edit: and of course, after rejoining, i didnt get anything for capturing that point.
I'm having the same issue as well... this is getting VERY annoying not only does it crash but then i gotta wait for it to run the repair as well before i can even log in :mad:
I got back in, and played a bit without crashing. It could be that the problem area is in the outskirts. but things are stable in the park. I wasn't able to do the city area before I had to go to work.
So where are you crashing? for me it is the outskirts near the transporter.

tried all 3 zones all resulted in crashing the time before crashes are random.. sometimes it's 1 minutes sometimes its 10 minutes but the end result is always crashing before its done
Oh, thank goodness it's not just me! I was able to play for a couple of hours over the weekend, but sometime since then, it's started crashing in the battle zone. I can get maybe as much as five minutes in, but then *boom*. I even deleted the game from my machine and re-installed. I finally fled to Earth Space Dock where suddenly the game was all nice and stable again. I guess I'll wait to get more Dyson Marks till there's some kind of fix put in place.
At first I thought it was due to today's patch, but then I realized I hadn't played the battlezone in a week or so (since I was concentrating more on leveling several delta recruits). I started playing the battlezone again today because of the bonus dil weekend and I'm constantly crashing. I've never experienced crashing before, other than an occasional one once in a blue moon.
Last crash happened while the game was loading, though.

For most people, there seems to be a problem with outskirts and so my advice would be to stay away from that area if you can. Been in the other two area's a lot and never crashed once. During rex-boss time, out of a 20 or so'ish times, i only crashed once (edit: correction, twice) in outskirt too.

Thank you for the suggestion.
I was in the outskirts during the crashes, but decided to try some things on my end. I lowered the graphic sliders to half, since the crashes seemed to be happening most frequently while using orbital devastation coupled with the secondary firing mode of the fluidic antiproton wrist lance. No crashes so far (***knocks on wood and crosses fingers***).

There must be a loophole somewhere in this area (division by zero perhaps? ).

Division by zero causes spatial ruptures and other really bad things, so you might be right.
It appears I spoke too soon; still crashing in outskirts, so now I'm avoiding the area for dil grinding on alts. Unfortunately, I can't even load the toon in outskirts to get him out of that black hole, so he's stuck.
Thought it was just me. I've crashed about 5 times on 2 different characters while playing the battlezone, but now that you mention it, I'm pretty sure they were all in the outskirts.

Stu.
Might get a few captured points in. But it still crashes.

Edit: it did not happen during the rex phase though.
Never had the problem before and all other areas of the game work fine.
Have filled the bug reports and glad to see it's not just me.

Went to the Outskirts transporter from the Command Center.
Had just under 2 minutes before the zone reset.
Waited at the transporter for the Voth to spawn.. as soon as they did me and my away team started to fire, crash.
Logged back in... as the game was loading.. splash screen that says what area it loads up... crashed again. Never even made it into game.
Logged on again... this time got back to the Outskirts transported area.. only 2 Voth were there and was able to defeat them.
Did missions in the Park and City... no other problems from the battlezone
This sucks man. Lets hope this doesn't end up like defera...
I was running my delta recruit toon, one friend was running their delta recruit, and the third was running a non-delta recruit.
In the Outskirts both delta recruit toons crashed to desktop. We were at one of the power generator areas.
We were on teamspeak, so we were still able to communicate with each other.
I got to load up first, and then crashed again as the map was loading. Didn't even make it back in.
The other was able to get back in.
When we all finally were able to get back in and get to the same instance the T-Rex phase started. We started it off, and then crashed again.
This was also in the Outskirts.
After loading back up a third time, we stayed away from the Outskirts, and did not have one crash for the rest of the night.
And the whole while, the non-delta recruit toon never crashed.

Thank you so much for the response.
Lifetime no longer gives a forum title. That should be updated on the Lifetime page that mentions what you get. PMing the CSR doesn't work neither.
