More frequent crashes on Steam after 1.11

[Vonox]

First: Great game, thanks for the digitization - I have already ordered the physical version as a must!

2nd: It happens from time to time, that HoN crashes, and thus throws me out on the Steam menu. The game apparently continues in the background, but is not accessable in any way. however, I am quite sure it is still running, because I can see the icons in the Windows menu bar, and Windows Task manager says the same thing. The breakdown occurs mostly within the first 5 minutes of play - or else not at all.

I can only get into HoN again by disconnecting the game in the Task manager, and reboot from the "Slitherine game menu" in Steam.

These crashes happened about one out of ten times when I played HoN, but now after the latest patch 1.11 it happens almost constantly, which is quite debilitating for my game-happiness

Is this a known issue, or am I alone in this ?

I am sure, that my physical version of HoN only crashes when I am losing!

Hi Vonox,
could you please tell me if this kind of crash happens in MP or in single player games?

Hi

The problem is probatly solved after updating with the very latest nVidia driver. I have played about 8 games since updating my graphic driver, and there has been no glimpse of any breakdown ever since. After the 1.11 patch, but before the latest nVidia driver, the game kept crashing 3 times in a row.

That's very good news. We didn't receive other reports about a sudden increase in crashes after 1.11, but if we do we'll suggest updating the drivers as a possible solution.
Thanks for reporting this!
