symptoms of the crash are:
kicked back to windows
no error reported
dayz app still running
switching back to dayz results in windows desktop staying but can hear sound effects of game. inputs do not register to the game (aka blindly exiting game does not work using keyboard commands).
killing app results in character reset every time so far.
