Ever since the trickster rework my game has been randomly crashing with no reason whatsoever, no crash report, no freeze, no ingame fps drops to signify anything just mid game ill be playing and boom suddenly im staring at my pc home screen. Beforehand UE used to send a crash report but i havent gotten that and idk what is causing this issue. I've seen a few people talk about something similar its getting frustrating as im constantly getting penalties for this it crashed back to back 4 times yesterday i ended up getting a 30 min ban and just getting off. I am unsure if its certain maps or not as twice it has happened on crotus penn. I have never had this issue prior to this update either.

    If its crashing the game first things I would check if your disc has good amount of empty space as if you run out of space to write stuff on the drive the game will crash as it runs out of free space. Thats why you never should have your solid or hard drives full. Another is that you are running out of virtual memory this is what your computer uses to run stuff and that is also the reason why the drive needs empty space. That you can manually change just google "how to increase windows page file size" and you should get step by step instructions how to do it.

    I myself keep currently about 100 GB empty just so everything can run smoothly without a problem even if that is most likely way more than it has to be.

    my disc has 600gb free so thats definitely not the issue, the reason im assuming its just something to do with the recent update is because nothing had changed to do with my pc and suddenly im experiencing these crashes ive seen some people on reddit experience the same thing.
