"bait" and "request backup" used in combination with contagion and overheat tend to still crash the game. It's arbitrary, but it forces me to use those combinations in situations that I don't mind having to restart the game. At first I thought it was just with "Request Backup" but it definitely happens with "Bait" too. Sometimes using Either of them works good to line up a shot. It's sad when you have to restart the game when they make good combo-tactics. Sometimes the pause is all that's needed right before you shoot and fry the opponents simultaneously.
