Hi! Sorry this happened to you! Has it happened again?

yes game is unplayable i load in and the message pops up and i can look around but as soon as i press w it crashes.

I have the same issue. The game crashes right as the key press is registered (the character doesn't begin to move). Even tried to change the settings a bit but it didn't change the result.

EDIT: The crash happens on all game modes. I've submitted the crash logs but I can also paste them here if desired.

EDIT 2: According to the full logs, in my case the crash happens as the footstep audio asset is spawned. I've submitted a new bug report form as new information is available.

EDIT 3: The issue seems related to high definition audio configurations. For two channel audio, any setting higher than 192 KHz seems to result in a crash (I use 384 KHz for other purposes). Apparently 24-bit vs 32-bit doesn't seem to make a difference. Other UE4 games do seem to handle that setting gracefully.
