What happened?

Had ran around for two hours looting, no issue. In Cherno, I picked up a Jerry can, then 10 seconds later logged out in a bush.

About five minutes passed- I went through the queue and as I loaded back in, within 2 seconds heard a motorbike very close to me, and immediately crashed.


Then 5 times in a row, I queued, loaded in, heard the bike, and crashed. On the 6th attempt, as I loaded in, a person on the bike drove past me and down the road, I did not crash, I ran the direction of the bike for about 20 seconds, dropped the Jerry can, then crashed again. Continuing to play, waiting through queue, now on 10th try; no bike sounds (he’s likely gone) and still crashing instantaneously.


Considering the timing of the bike sounds, and the person eventually passing me, I think that person was also crashing with me, something due to proximity. Not sure what else could have been at play, and that wouldn’t explain why I’m still crashing. Specific location is Dubovo, next to the many garages.


This is on PC Microsoft store experimental, server NA LA 6358

    Discovered it has something to do with controller input. Loading into any M&K server with controller unplugged from PC, no crash. Plugging in the controller after loading in, no crash. Loading into any server with controller plugged in, instant crash 👍

    Never mind, either more complicated or unrelated. Crashes still occurring with or without controller, across any server

    Found the solution. Lowering graphics quality in settings stops the crashing, it seems that somehow, it was possible to lessen the performance of this game even further than the previous update.


    In short, game can no longer handle its own medium-high graphics settings, and perpetually crashes. Good job, toss it in with the god mode and rendering problems!!
