-They are random, i'll see none for a week, then get them 6 or 7 times a match in one day.
-They ONLY happen in CW matches.
-They only seem to happen (for me) in a Hellbore Defense, or a Grim Portico.
-There is often no error warning, a simple drop to desktop, or a "out of memory xxxx" then a drop.
-If I get one error, it is almost guranteed that if I can rejoin AT ALL I will drop again, and again, and again.
-Sometimes after the Initial crash, I can load up, seat the mech, then insta-crash.

It is not my PC. This does not happen all the time. Fix the maps! It makes CW useless for me.

This is not a game glitch. Your computer is literally running out of RAM. What is your OS (windows 32 bit vs 64 bit matters a lot here), and how much RAM is installed?

The reason you see it on Grim Portico is a clear one. Portico has a gak ton of geometry to calculate i.e. it eats up a fair amount of RAM. Hellbore is a bit more odd imo, but it could simply be because the drop ships and the smoke from the gun can be seen almost everywhere, which is a lot of particle effects and moving objects on top of everything else going on.

Memory issues like this are almost never game glitches (seriously). It's a client side hardware issue (sometimes a software issue as well). It could be simple or it could be super convoluted. I know a guy who couldn't play Payday 2 because Watchdogs does something to the registry that makes Payday 2 unplayable. Computers be wack yo :wacko:

I seem to have similar problems.. Load of crashes with client running out of memory in CW. After few restarts have managed to finish matches.

I have 16 gb of ram in 64bit win 8.1, with gtx 970 graphics card. So I highly doubt that my machine is running out of memory..
When checked running processes, only mwo was hogging loads of ram.

And this problem has appeared like yesterday,. No problems while i had 4gb of ram with 1gb gfx card, and no problems with this newer setup for a year, until now.

*And its sorted = there is nothing a good reboot wouldn't fix. (remembered that my maching was on like few weeks and memory must have filled with crap ..:D)
