unfortunely the map transfer crash is still hapenning.it hit while doing a foundry mission earlier.once in the last three hours of play is better than it was,I guess.
Also getting an increased number of CTD rather than freezes,mine alway happens more during events from Risa to MI.Wonder how bad the internet will be during "Black Friday", all the massive discount sales in the USA and Europe.
Since season 10 I have been seeing a significant increase in the frequency of STO freezing, or the game simply dropping to Windows desktop with Cryptic Error Handler popping up about half the time, or Microsoft searching for solution the other half. I have forced file verify several times and start in safe mode. I have tried running windowed versus full screen. I have upgraded my OS from Windows 7 Pro to Windows 10 Pro. Happens almost every PVE, just before rewards are granted, unless it is a fresh restart of the game. Most frequent when map transferring to/from ESD and DS9. My fleet mates report the same. If I disable voice chat and do not team up, the frequency is reduced, but will still happen. I have detailed what I was doing, when, and where in countless Cryptic Error Handler dialogue boxes that appear after the incidents, but this is going on now for a year or so, and seems to get worse with every shard maintenance.
this is still happening , and it happens every time i play, did anyone else is encountering this?
maybe it's time to stop playing sto for a while, the devs obviously don't give a damn about this game.
this is a game breaking bug that's been going on what, for months now?
This is pretty disheartening. This game feels like it has 3 load screens for every piece of content, and yet for a lot of us, the game will freeze up and need to be closed and restarted 5/10 times at any load screen. We all completely expect to have to restart the game any time we have to load into a new area. It's ugly and awful.
couldn't agree more with what you said. this is why i stopped playing sto now, i'll wait until next patch and try it then if the problem persists i'll wait again until next patch to try sto again. i refuse to play any more a game that i can't even play more than 30 minutes straight now.
FYI,I have for awhile thought Arc was causing most of my lagging/map transfer problems and with arc chat corrupt,last night I uninstalled arc and now the game is running better. who knew? so,if you have arc you may want to boot it.
I've been thinking at too. Thanks for reminding me.

Well I can tell all of you it's not ARC. I have been running STO via Steam forever and this issue just started happening for me.

Glad I came back and checked this tread. Hope its addressed real soon. Comes and goes but when it comes 3-5 minutes feels like 5-10. Getting it on all my toons tonight at DS9..
Yes! Mine has started freezing between map transfers again. This just started a couple of weeks ago. It generally happens after 3-4 map transfers and then it will freeze.
Realizing that this is isolated to a specific character, I logged into an alt, then set DirectX in Options under "Display" tab to DX9ex. I immediately exited the game and restarted. If you don't exit and get a crash, the setting does not save.
When I returned and logged in with the problem toon, it worked.

Is any relief in sight?
it's high time this is fixed, it's game breaking.

I turned this option ON.
I have no freezing during map transfer now.
