DirectX crashes immediately
Upon launching, my game will freeze after a few minutes of play, displaying the error "A fatal DirectX error has occurred.(11000002)", crashing upon clicking the Ok button. This happens consistently since I returned to the game a few days ago.
Noteably, a new graphics security driver was released for my GPU today, however installing it resulted in the game no longer launching at all, so I have returned to the next newest driver for that reason, and am back to being able to play for only several minutes at a time before the directX error arises.
I have also attempted with a completely fresh install of the game, with the same results.
