[PS5 Share screen] - Dayz will freeze after viewing on sharescreen
New, UrgentPublic

Description

Hey there!

I've noticed an issue recently, where viewing another player playing Dayz using the PS5's share screen functionality causes the game to freeze completely. The only way to recover from this is a hard console reset, by holding the power button down for a short duration - attempts to restart the console by normal means does not work. This causes the console to attempt data recovery on launch - potentially corrupting other saved data in storage, internally and externally. I'm not sure if this is a client issue, or whether it's Sony related. It may be indicative of a memory leak, having left the share screen to soak for a while.
