Just came back to the game after a year off and was looking forward to the new content but damn the crashing is bad. I play 10 mins and crash or I play for 2 hours then crash. Its so random that I've given up running any mission because of the random crashes. How can you hype content and draw players back if you can't fix an issue that's persisted this long? I guess I'll go play something else and wait another year to see if its finally addressed and fixed. Shame.

So I found a fix that worked for me after some digging. For me the issue is the EasyAntiCheat program that launches with the game.

After starting the game and get to character select, open Task Manager and look for EasyAntiCheat then click Go To Details. Click on EasyAntiCheat and change the affinity of EasyAntiCheat to Cpu 1 only. You have to do this everytime you open the game but it fixed all my crash issues, was able to run the game for 6 hours without a crash where as before I couldn't run for an hour with crashes and freezes.

Might not fix it for everyone but worth a try
