the game crashing all the time in multiplay match. cant play a 30minute without drop me back to windows screen with an error. I have played blitzcrank

please provide steps to reproduce

when reporting crash in MP ,
please state TYPE and NAME of the MISSION/MOD you are playing, how many players were playing at the time etc. Try to provide as much info as possible.
If the crash is happening when playing custom MAP/MOD,try to reproduce the crash also on our official Arma III missions.
I recommend (prior to contacting us using the Feedback Tracker ) contacing the creator of MAP/MOD.

I played wasteland 1.05 players was around 20-25. Aplha version 0.5.102571 not dev patch. Ati driver 13.1
The game was great at start, later it's started lagging. Im teaming up with a guy who just met, but he stops moveing sometimes (later apeared some meters away), later when he drove a car. I only seen that the car is go than stop in every 2 second(it felt like the time is stoping continusly). we gone together and checked a hilltop military base, where i killed an enemy. The game just started lagging super hard from there. I have seen a helicopter what is just stayed on the sky, later it moved a couple meters away. We began to run back to our car with the stranger who i team up with, and when i set in the cars back seat. The game screen freezed. Waited some minute than used alt+ctrl+del, when a program stop working messages apeared. I copy an attachement from this message also.
I used fraps 3.5.9 behind arma. I checked the fps, didnt drop under 18. Mostly it was 30-35. (the cpu usage was 50-60% the gpu 36-53%)
the red chain appeared once or twice but when it dissapeared the games still lagged. (i got ping almost every online game about 20-32ms.) When i chosed this server it wrote my ping is 30.
I used another monitor when played this mission(wacom cintiq 12wx) where i checked the gpu-usage statistics.
I hope i gave all the information what you need. The thing is i cant play online more than 30 minute with arma3 without some freezing. The situations never the same. I hope you will find a solutions of this issues.
Great game you have made there anyway, super work on 3d artist and designers. I cant say that to the network coders and engine programers.

i compare the older appcrash message with the new one what i uploaded before and the informations was the same. So maybe the freezes have some connection eachother

have you tried reproducing the crash on official Arma 3 MP missions?
If this is only happening on custom missions/mods please contact their creators/devs prior to contacting us using the Feedback tracker. Thank you

There is some issue with the official coop maps. First off all, its hard to find a server where these maps can be playable. If you found mostly 2500 ping or 0 player. If you find one what fits you, you will be experince this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lUbN6cbvlSI
If not this bug (suddenly all the player leave when the ai start these radio messages)
then you will face the seagull bug. When you can only do is flying on the map.
If this not sounds annoying enough, sometimes when you join in a official map you will be spawn the bottom left corner of the map. When you should swimm about 30-40 minute to reach the island.
I tried to play on the 2 offical map, but can play more then 10 minute, because of these thing.
So can you explain how should i recreate any issue reletad to multipayer aspect in these conditions?
