    As said above this issue was here before Creators update. It's a long standing problem with the game and AMD cards.

    There is not much we can do on the user side, there either needs to be a driver update that corrects the issue or the game itself being fixed.

    Reverting to 15.12 is not a good solution. Those drivers are quite old now and can can cause compatibility issues with newer cards and games, to the point that some won't even run with them.
    I think you're right. Last night on DX9, it froze up for a short time, went black, then resumed like normal. I'm assuming that's it crashing but recovering. But in DX11, it crashes to desktop every time.

    Yes. That is exactly what happens in DX9. After a while it stops redrawing, then geometry randomly starts vanishing and it crashes.
