This all started with the 9.0.0.4 update.
I am getting constant crashes during game play in a variety of activities. At first it seemed like it was only happening in Onslaught since I went back in after crashing and it crashed during onslaught again.
Since those repeated crashes I have experienced crashes in a variety of single and multiplayer activities, everything from crucible to solo ops and fireteam ops.
No error code just a hard freeze and then crash.
Game freezes completely, then closes after a few seconds (at most 5 seconds).
So far I haven't noticed this happening after a specific length of play time. Sometimes I can play for an hour without a crash, some times it's after 2 or 3 minutes in my first activity after starting up.
I'm not experiencing crashes in any other games, I've tried cpu intensive games as well as GPU intensive games. So far only Destiny 2 is crashing.
Things I've tried:
Limiting the game to 90fps
Limiting the game to 60fps
Limiting the game to 30fps
Fresh install via Steam
Verifying game files via Steam
Fresh install via the Xbox App
Verifying game files via Xbox App
Adjusting video settings despite both of my GPUs being more than capable of running at the settings I've been using since I started playing.
Swapping from an Nvidia 50 series card to an Intel Arc B580
swapping back to the Nvidia 5060ti after experiencing the same crash when using the Arc B580
PC Specs:
Core ultra 245k
64GB ddr ram (tried both default speed and XMP1)
Nvidia RTX 5060ti 16GB
Intel Arc B580
27" 1440p monitor
24" 1080p secondary monitor (tried unplugging this one, no help)
Windows 11 24H2 (tried both home and pro versions of windows)

Edited by Lumi: 8/1/2025 2:08:47 AMHi all take this with a grain of salt as I have been using this fix for the past hour and a bit - Temporary workaround: Could be pure luck but I disabled the intelapo service - I have seen this cause issues with anti-cheats in the past. Especially EAC (I am aware D2 uses battleye but figured I'd give it a shot). You can do this by going to powershell and running "sc stop intelapo" without the quotes. If you reboot you'll need to run it again. I had been crashing after each activity before I did this and I have been able to complete a couple over the hour since I did this. It seems to be the Ultra 200 series that has this issue.
