Game crashing in myriad of ways
It is no longer generating a report to send. It used to, and I have sent around 4. It seems to only crash loading later levels. I restarted the campaign and went without crashes until cold-blooded and it is crashing repeatedly.

I have verified files, I have uninstalled twice, I have deleted the config file (from another thread)

There's currently an unidentified issue with the swamp levels (mainly Cold-Blood) that causes an inconsistent crash when attempting to load. One theory is that the bullfrog causes the crash as I have also seen it happen in skirmish mode on the Strawclutch map but not in A Bridge Too Far. However, it may be something else.

Are there any other levels that are causing crashes?
Cold Blooded seems to be the only level after I have restarted the campaign. Cold Blooded I was able to launch once today (the first time) out of 3 attempts, including a restart 3 minutes into the game. (the designers have updated the big headed ants to prevent my rushing to their aphids before they do their first patrol.)

I've crashed on most of the skirmish maps. From dunes to drive them back, I've probably crashed while loading all of them at least once.
Same here. I can load "A Bridge Too Far", but when I try to load "Cold Blooded" it crashes the game. Earlier today I was able to get into the level in "Remix" mode, and in Story mode, but, when I hit restart level, because I screwed up, it crashed and now it crashes almost every time.

How often does this happen? Is this only with skirmish games or does it happen with freeplay games too?

Both. And it's completely random. Sometimes it happens twice in a row, sometimes it won't happen for days. But it has happened on every map at least once and in both skirmish and freeplay. It has also happened in story missions while loading them. I recently even had the chinese new year level crash on loading and then work afterwards.

So correction for mine, 90% crash rate for cold blooded, it has crashed on "beach" once while loading. It just crashed mid game (day 3ish) on last mound standing. First in-game crash for me. No issues with campaign "boss" maps yet.
