Rut Ro... CTD during MP

[Westsailor]

Well, sorta. I was playing online last night, just spawned and got on a heli to carry me to the action. We gained altitude and were heading out when the screen just went black.

At first, despite a 65ms ping, I thought I'd just lost the connex, got bumped off the server. Then, I get one of those MS error popup windows "Sorry, Arma 2 had to close. Send Error report to Microsoft?'

I haven't played CO that much yet but 1st time its even hiccuped on me. And this is apparently something 'serious' for XP to have shut it down yet I have no idea what might have caused it.

Sorry... I know that was really vague. 1st time anything has 'crashed' for me in CO. Then again, I just started playing ArmA 2. If it happens again I'll start getting 'worried'

But I thought I'd check it out/mention it anyway. Was it me or ArmA 2? Was it only MP related? I didn't find any similar reports via a forum search. In the meantime I was thinking if it were a known issue/bug and I missed it in the search someone might point me to the appropriate thread.

As soon as I'm convinced it's a bug and not me/my configuration I'll absolutely do what I can to help you guys out by submitting a bug report (w/ detailed info). Thanks for the link. I had no idea BIS had such a thing (VERY cool!).
