I confirm:

  • [Y] that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.

Symptoms

Game loads normal, but crashes on some certain activities including:

  • pressing ESC during matches;
  • any chatbox activites (both game chat and game workshop)
  • clicking on prestige tier in current battlepass (fastest way to test!)

Reproduction

Start the game, open battle pass on main screen, skip to end, click on any prestige title. Game will crash, crash report will be generated.
