They done broke it again. 1.05 still crashed now and again but rarely... managed to get through the game. 1.06 crashes within 5 minutes constantly, just like 1.01-1.04 did. Oh, and for those spewing hardware nonsense, it' not. When this game launched I was on a 790GTX and a 750W PSU... and every patch up to 1.05 crashed every 5 minutes irrespective of settings, either in game or clock speeds and the like, believe me I tried everything (not that you should have to alter the sodding voltages on your system to get a game to work, frankly even if that fixed it, it's not acceptable).
Anyhow, as it happens it was GPU upgrade time so I'm now on a GTX980ti and a brand new 1000W PSU, and 1.05 was running at a rock solid 60FPS, everything on including hairworks with only the occasional "sound keeps playing" crash, but low and behold 1.06 comes out and we're back to the crash every 5 minutes crap. So just in case you feel the urge to rush out to buy new GPUs and PSUs, please don't. The problem is software, the fix needs to be in software.
