Same here. Just reinstalled the game after giving up about a year ago. Before an update about a year ago, I played regularly and had no issues. The there was an update and I could never play for more than 30 minutes before the game either freezes or crashes to the desktop. Decided to give PS another chance because I love the game-play and especially the sound. I followed the suggestions here of verifying the integrity of the game files and then dumping the cache. I did both. My system specs are Intel i5 2500K overclocked to 3.3 Ghz. I have 16 Gb of RAM. The video card is a MSI GeForce GTX 1660 Ti OC with 6 Gb of VRAM. Those specs should be enough to run any game that is properly optimized. The game froze after 10 minutes and 45 seconds. I decided to use my stopwatch feature to see if I could make it past 30 minutes because that never happens. I can see why this game is dying a slow death. I had persuaded 3 of my buddies to invest in this game about 6 months ago when it was on sale but we cannot play it because my game either crashes or freezes. Oh well, back to ARMA3 and Hell Let Loose, that by the way run flawlessly at High or Epic settings.

I've had quite a lot of crashes since the latest patch rolled out. Seems they occur most often when servers initiate a map change.

Only for Post Scriptum. All other 170 games I own run flawlessly. Go figure. I am not going to update my video card for one game especially when computer hardware is scarce and expensive during the pandemic.

Reading over the latest Squad patch notes it seems there are a lot of issues/bugs inherent to Unreal. A couple of known issues they report in the latest change log sound exactly like PS issues:

"Player (Client) occasional crash at the end of a round, upon map switch, due to a UE4 Particle Crash bug upon seamless map travel. Actively pursuing a fix for this crash."

- As noted above.

"Occasionally a player does not spawn at a Rally Point. This often happens when numerous players are spawning in at the same time — This will be addressed in a future update."

- Noticed this for a while but it's minor.

"Server performance may periodically dip when a server has a high population and high load. We are continuously working to improve server performance and optimization."

- A bit vague but imagine PS with 100 players; hence the reluctance to unleash the sh*t storm that will be 100 population cap per server in PS.

"Vehicles parking brake gets stuck “On” if a player exits the vehicle while holding the parking brake (Default Spacebar). When encountering a vehicle that appears healthy but is not able to move, try hitting Spacebar to turn the parking brake “Off’ — This will be addressed in a future update."

- Definitely still a bug in PS, spamming space bar is the way out, figured this out ages ago.

"“Alt-tabbing” out of Squad during a loading screen freezes the client. The recommended solution, for now, is to run Squad in the “Borderless” mode. This can be changed in Settings -> Graphics."

- Rule number one with games, don't alt-tab on load :D

"The audio module for Squad is initialized at the game start. If a player does not have a microphone plugged in at launch, or accidentally unplug their microphone and then plug it back in, Squad needs to be restarted to get the microphone to work again — This issue will likely require an engine upgrade to UE4.25 to be fixed."

- Present in PS.

"SFX bug while Firing in full auto. If the player presses the fire button for a short period, the sound effect gives the impression that you fired more rounds than you did — This will be addressed in a future update."

- Similar to the issue of the never ending tank MG firing audio bug in PS. Requires player to tap right click / MG to stop the audio from looping endlessly.

Also mentions ongoing vehicle resetting issues, as in PS.


So while the OP phrased it in a trollish way ("trash engine") there are most definitely big issues with Unreal.
