Same problem, please do something about this blizzard. I can’t play competitive because of this. Can’t even play normal matches, my endorsement dropped to 1 from 4 in 2 days.
Please blizzard…

I am experiencing sudden crashes, with my i5-8600K and 16GB Ram with a GTX1060 3GB OC
which has 6 cores and the GPU is the recommended graphics card.
I have tried everything suggested here Overwatch Lockups and Crash Errors - Blizzard Support
and all recommendations in this thread
Random Crashes are still happening and now I’m being penalized 75% exp because a game that was able to run on my pc no longer does. I should not be penalized due to the games problems.
I’ve been playing since 2016

Exactly, I keep crashing out of no-where, even tho the game runs very smoothly. Somehow I am starting to see a pattern: when a hero with a rework like orisa uses an ability, I have great chance of crashing.

I got punished for leaving early, so that’s annoying

4th day can´t paly overwatch … waiting for a fix 
… so excited for OW2 and 4 days just watching the technical forum … tried all fixes nothing works I am just cursed having intel i3 on my second computer (the one at home for games) my second machine in work is AMD so I guess it will be ok bt I can´t play games there (no time) …
My spec is:
i3 6100 3,7Ghz
DDR4 24GB
GeForce 750ti
Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
My other PC specs are far supperior will try to play tomorrow but at home where I play 99% I just simply freezes after 1 minute of gameplay … not a single match till the end always freezes in the beginning … set all to minimum detail, dynamic off, 30 fps hard limit etc … nothing works
Do you try this?
Bnet launcher > ow2 game settings (on launcher) > additional command line > --tank_WorkerThreadCount 2
You can change this to 4 if its still freezing
this is how i solved the problem

yeah, i also am getting this problem, the game freezes completely at random times and is unplayable, i have an i3 with a gtx 1050, the game also runs really smooth with over 80 fps, no normal crashes, just the freezing issue, which i think is totally on the game’s side, hopefully they’ll fix it soon.

Well I tried both methods but now it crashes and shows me this error “Your rendering device has run out of memory. Please try closing some applications or restarting your computer” any help?
I have the same problem and i have tried everything suggested here.
I’ve played OW1 since late 2017 and this never happened to me as far as I remember.

So you’re saying that we should make the game unplayable to be able to play it?
