Massive hard crashes since latest patch - PhysX3_x86.dll Crash
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

On multiplayer servers (with various missions) players will crash in large numbers and you can watch 40-60% crash at any given time. There seems to be no specific event causing it but this appears to the same event that was report during alpha.

Steps To Reproduce

Join a highly populated server and play. Players seem to be crashing in large groups.

Note: I did not have this problem at all before the latest patch.

Additional Information

Event log reports as follows. This represents approximately 2 hours worth of attempted game play. Crash times range from 3-20 minutes approximately across different servers and missions.

I do not see an option to rate this issues severity but I would call it critical or extreme as it makes the multiplayer aspect of the game almost unplayable.

I'm getting the same crash. Sometimes the game crashes before I can even get to the multiplayer server view.

Here is info from the Windows Event Viewer. Not sure if it helps.
