I'm having crashing issues too, and with no real reason. Similar to everyone else here, I get a complete computer lockup - screen goes black and nothing works except shutting off the computer manually and rebooting. Sometimes I can play for hours and hours with no crashing, but today especially I've been crashing nonstop - even as soon as I log in! It's so frustrating to be on a team with friends, crash, reboot, log in, crash again, reboot again, log back in, then crash again! It's gotten incredibly severe and I really wish that the Devs would at least give us some idea of a solution, even just one in the works.
EDIT: Here's my computer info, if it'll help.
