Arma 3 Contact locking up
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Game will run for a while then lock up in certain spots. When looking thru the binoculars to see the blue smoke, when asked to move a vehicle so the helicopter can land after the explosion. Have not been able to go further. It will lock up then kick me out to the main Arma 3 menu. I have tried running in 64 and 32 bit, do not have any mods installed. All other Arma 3 games run without issues. Updated video drivers.

locks up when looking thru the binoculars to see the smoke every time, if I quickly and after the explosion and asked to move a vehicle for the helicopter to land, it will lockup. Both lockups will kick me back to the menu. Have not been able to get further, have tried different setting for the pass couple weeks since I purchased the game.
