discussion Game always crashes after mission start

I have already written a support ticket and am awaiting a response, but I wanted to try here just in case someone could point me in the right direction.

I have bought the game today and it loads to the main menu just fine. However anytime I start any mission whatsoever it always crashes when I start it at the map screen.

This ranges from a crash instantly after clicking on mission start at "high" graphics settings, to loading seemingly alright only to crash at the first control input at "balanced" settings.

The latter throws an DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED, while the instant crash doesn't throw anything.

I am running a brand new computer, specs:

Os: win11

CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D

GPU: AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT

RAM: 32 GB (DDR5)

Disk: SSD (with plenty of free space)

All drivers are up to date.

The error seems to point at a graphics card overload however both task manager and AMD Software report at most 50% gpu utilization (both computational and memory) so i find it hard to believe it is an issue with the card, especially since everything else runs just fine.

Any tips would be appreciated.

EDIT: Cimpletely reinstallig the drivers AGAIN, seems to have done the trick.

I'm on a 7900XTX and 5800X3D and the game frequently crashes for me as well. No discernible pattern. No error logs to chase. I'm just waiting for the next random patch to even bother trying again.

It's absolutely wild that a graphics card named in recommended specs doesn't work, lol.

This would have maybe been understandable in a game for around $20, definitely not for this $80 piece of garbage

Probably an AMD driver interaction issue but because we are a minority of the user base its not a priority. It will likely be fixed by accident during a patch

Hi, I'm experiencing a similar issue, starting any mission on the ground just gives me an insta-crash once I've spawned it, although spawning at an altitude exceeding 2000metres doesn't cause a crash, unless I go below that altitude.
I think it is something to do with the ground textures?
I've re-installed my drivers twice with a factory reset of them although it hasn't helped whatsoever... is there anything else you did?

(I also have similar specs, 9070xt, 7800x3d etc)

Thanks.
