Sounding like the new patch is pretty buggy. I tried to play a game on level 7 difficulty and got a hard crash. We were trying to do the ore extraction mission on Tibit, the drop ships were insane, totally outnumbered until my game crashed. We’ll see what tomorrow brings, but we might be back to some peak time crashing on the servers. Hopefully a quick patch might happen in the morning.
Hoping it plays ok later today (5pm ET), the patch notes call out the Acquisitions menu as the cause, that wasn’t the case for me. Feels like when too many enemies dropped in, divers start dropping one by one.
