Eye on Community: Crash Issues Have Been Fixed
According to the newest Eye on Community segment, crash issues during fortress sieges and other intensive activities were fixed in patch 1.5.1, which was implemented last week. The team received the fix shortly before the maintenance and decided to include it in the patch. Have you noticed an improvement in your client's performance?

Bom on [DE]Balder asks:
“I've been crashing less since the 1.5.1 patch. Did you guys intentionally fix the Crysystem.dll problem?”
Yes, the crash issues during fortress sieges and other intensive activities were fixed with the patch we applied to the servers on Wednesday. In case you haven’t read the final patch notes, take a look at the very last paragraph where the stability improvements are listed. We received this fix shortly before our scheduled maintenance and decided to include it together with the patch. We are glad that it works well for you.
This fix was difficult to implement and test because it took many people to recreate the issue, and many complex parameters had to be taken into consideration to not just fix it for a specific configuration, but for all players. Many testers had to coordinate together every time a possible fix was created. It is much more difficult than fixing something that a single person can test alone. That said, if you’re still experiencing problems, please report them in our support forum.
