I experienced this bug on an Xbox Series X console. As per the title, inspecting the event rewards Romantic Death and Folded Root for the "New Territories: Reclaim" event results in the following game errors in this order:
1. An immediate initial 1-3 second game freeze on the inspection screen.
2. The failure to load UI elements such as weapon models in the inspection screen, active player emblems and names in the social screen, and all visual map UI elements. For the latter two, the UI elements retained all functionality, but failed to give any visualization.
3. A Perpetual/indefinite loading period when attempting to travel to any destination.
4. Eventual hard freeze/crash of the game when attempting to go to orbit or change characters, upon which the player must manually quit the game and restart.
I encountered this bug simply by attempting to inspect the above listed weapons in the event rewards for the above listed event. The momentary freeze happens immediately upon inspection regardless of player location (I was able to reproduce this bug both inside the Reclaim activity and in orbit), and the UI bugs follow immediately after. The game will still retain all functionality until the player attempts to travel to a destination (upon which the game will become softlocked in a perpetual, indefinite loading period) or go to orbit/change characters (both of which lead to the hard freeze/crash). Obviously, the expected result is that none of this occurs and the weapons can be inspected as normal.
Edit: Description of the above video:
Clip 1: initial momentary freeze upon weapon inspection and resulting UI bug
Clip 2: various UI bugs that result from weapon inspection including social screen and map screen issues
Clip 3: indefinite loading period upon attempting to travel to the tower and hard freeze/crash upon attempting to change characters

Same, you can’t equip the weapon, upon inspection just bugs out majority of the UI so you can’t use director or portal, transmat or change character which freezes on the menu. Have to close game restart AND avoid that particular weapon.
