System Crash after Recent COH upgrade
« on: August 09, 2014, 02:02:24 PM »
Am I the only one experiencing system crashes while playing EF? I have the most recent patch and have been using the COH new steam version ever since it came out.  I have not had this problem since the Steam/COH2 mod last year or so.  I was recently prompted to complete a COH upgrade (or update) and now the system crashes while I am playing EF.  I am usually in skirmish mode on both the Kursk(4) and Lyon (4) maps.  I have a pretty sophisticated desktop with no driver or hardware issues.  Does this sound familiar?  Help!

Old story:
New steam CoH patch -> EF wont work. U have to wait until we are able to fix the bug again. But it will take time because only a single Dev can solve the problem and he is a busy. All in all this is a difficult bug to patch. So it will take some time  :-\
May the force be with you.

Thanks for responding so quickly.  I had a feeling that this was the case as it seemed to be more than a coincidence that the problem started right after the upgrade.  It makes me NOT want to perform any upgrades to COH but I am not sure Steam will let me decline the upgrade.  Any way, thanks again and I will be feverishly waiting for the patch in the future.

Pretty much. A new version should be out soon that wont include the new stuff, but will fix this bug so you guys can at least still keep playing
