Game Freezes, Black Screen, Locks up Desktop for 10s, Crashes Discord / Drivers

[GallopingGepard]

In the few hours that I have played my game has crashed a dozen times. Sometimes I can play for a few minutes, sometimes I can enjoy a full match. It is very inconsistent.

At some point, however, the game freezes. I then get a black screen which lingers for about 10-20 seconds. My PC will recover, and the AMD drivers display the usual crash message. My Discord will also crash.

I've reinstalled the game, checked and verified my files, updated my AMD drivers to the latest version and reinstalled to be sure.

Pretty sure it's not a hardware issue as my PC is quite good. I play dozens of other games and none have this issue, which leads me to believe it's also not a driver issue.

Specs:
Ryzen 7 7800X3D, RX 7900 XT, MSI PRO B650-P, Vengeance 32 GB RAM, GameMax 750w PSU, Arctic Liquid Freezer II. Game is installed on a SSD. EG 35" Monitor with DP cords.

I've experimented with various graphics options, including locking my frame rate, but unfortunately nothing appears to help.

I can play it on my Steam Deck absolutely fine on medium 30fps, however. Lmao..

I downloaded the latest AMD driver 23.40.19.01 which advertises crash fixes for Helldivers 2 and have been able to play 3 games with no issues. Touch on wood this issue is now resolved. If not I will update.
