Did everyone reporting this CTD i.e. On first triger pull, change arenas before it happened?

Might not be worth anything, but...

Having had the arena switch/CTD hit me last week, I made sure that my squad all completely exited the game before coming into the SEA before squad ops. Then, as soon as we were airborn, I had everyone test fire their guns. We didn't suffer any CTDs.

After Squad Ops, we returned to the MA, and at least one of my guys didn't back all the way out and suffered a CTD at first trigger pull.

that would explain my CTD's when i *change* to CT arena, but normaly no, i go straight to MA, sometimes its the first round i shoot in the 1st plane, sometimes its the 2nd plane, sometimes its the 10th plane, but it WILL happen at least once a day to me :(

The two times it's happened to me were on the first hop after I'd switched from the CT and SEA to the MA.

First time the guys were tellin me about it on VOX so I pulled the trigger and fired a couple of rounds. There was a delay--long enough for me to say "well I'm still....." Klunk! CTD.

Second time was just this past Friday night after the FSO. Left the SEA for the MA. Flew quite a while, lined up on a low Spit, squeezed the trigger--klunk!

Hitech, this has been happening to me as well. Started with patch 6. (not sure if its the patch, but never had this happen prior).
In reference to your question about switching arena's, it just happened to me again, and yes I did just hop out of ma and enter TA. It happened on first pull of trigger, and with a mossie.

IIRC this does seem to happen with me on first pull of trigger after entering an arena (but I am not 100% sure....I will watch for it and report).

cheers,

Has only happened to me after I switch arenas. In AH1 used to happen when I hit "fly" from the clipboard after a switch, now it happens when I pull the trigger.

No, it happened after playing in the MA for quite a while.

I had a situation where I was in a panzer and pulled the trigger, the screen froze showing the muzzle flash. I had to hard reset my machine.

This has only happened to me 3 times, 2 in plane, 1 in pnzr.

Just noticed when I got back into MA from SEA..

Haven't had it happen to me since then. Maybe I'll try jumping arenas and see if that causes it to happen again.

I can't recall the circumstances of the first CDT I had, but last night it did occur on my first sortie after leaving the TA.

Hitech...  Don't want to toot my own horn here by quoting myself, but...

This happens both offline and online.  It has only occured to me only in a D9 in the MA.  I rarely switch arenas (only off to SEA every once in a friday).   I have had 3 trigger related CTDs in the last week or so.  Each time they result in a wierd "collapsing of the screen." Like someone is shutting curtains horizontally on the game.
