[Stability] CTD when joining servers

Nope redownloading doesn’t fix it, still crashes, though I was able to join some fuller servers.

Well, back to the drawing board a bit. I found out that enabling VSync seems to allow me to connect to the server. I was also crashing while on the appearance tab and customizing guns, enabling Vsync fixes that. I enable Vsync, join the game, then disable it once I’m inside. Works like a charm.

Not sure what its doing, but I wonder if this is similar to the problem Blizzard had with overheating GPUs when Starcraft Launch. My 5870 is at 65c though, which seems like it should be okay.

Can you make sure this info goes into the thread so everyone else is aware of the possible workaround?

Thanks.

Enabling Vsync completely fixes the issue. I then disable it in game so that my FPS doesn’t suck.
