I have never had a crash in this game before, and I have normally attributed all the problems people have had to PEBKAK, but in this case the explosion crash is a real bug.

It does not seem to happen (or at least it didn't happen for one attempt) for mid-air explosions. I crashed into a wingman and the resulting fireball yielded no crash or any kind of hiccup. But nosing into the ground at high speed yielded an instant, total lock.

560 Ti, 280.26 drivers
Win 7 64 bit

The problems with the "post-crash" lockup must be an easy one to solve as it seems to happen to many here all the time... It's probably some build/packaging problem where a tiny explosion sound clip or flame effect that all the testers have on their rigs from numerous internal versions did not make it into the beta patch release we got. Sure that's annoying, but stuff like that can happen when you have a mod with pitch forks and torches outside of you house

But really - if this is going to be a bug reporting thread can't people please post their hardware setup, OS version and driver versions for their GPU etc? It's really impossible to see if this is a problem related only to Nvidia users, Creative Sound card users or whatever...

EDIT: After whining about this I realize that I had forgotten my Sound Card in my sig Shame on me...

Crashes when there's a ground-hit fireball explosion (not when anything crashes into sea). Reproducable with Black Death track at point of bomb impact with taking off Hurricane, would appear to be the fireball graphic that triggers the lock-up.

No crashdump file created, requires taskmanager to get out, sound continues after crash.

While its running (up to a ground crash) there seems to be more stuttering for me than 1st beta and still a big fps hit in clouds.

Using nvidia beta driver 285.38 with vsync and SSAO all settings high.

It seems to me that the AI radio comms are hardly audible now, I don't know if someone else is having this issue too.

For me the rest works fine.

Of the people that have had lock ups after a ground explosion, who has nvidia graphics card with the latest beta 285.38 (the one required for Battlefield 3)?

Extremely over contrasted cockpit lighting that I hope will be a bug.

They did it on purpose, so when your plane explodes, the explosion is so powerfull it sends shock-waves throughout your computer's system and therefore the game freezes.
Most people should know this by themself

it's not a patch, it's a beta patch... this is all the difference.
