Hi @MunKy,

Our backend developers are now investigating this issue. Could you please provide me with your PSN ID?

Thanks!

I’ll escalate this with our backend developers. I’ll be in touch again as soon as I hear back from them!

Thanks for confirming! Do you play in Online mode only?

You can try deleting your local save data and redownloading your save from the cloud.

Please note, any Offline mode progress will be lost though (as well as any custom settings)

Hm okay! Please let me know how that goes.

Just for reassurance, I’ve checked your account in the backend and your progress is still very much intact.

Hi Brettman,

If you play in Online mode, could you be playing in Offline mode now by mistake?

We are currently aware of an issue where French translation text issues are causing the game to crash when switching career.

We’re working to resolve this as soon as possible.

In the meantime, please temporarily switch to any other language. Apologies for the inconvenience.

Heroes!

We aware are aware of some crashes that are currently affecting our console players.

Please see details of these crashes below:

• Host can crash when a client Necromancer sends a command to her skeletons and they die (or target enemies that die) before the request reaches the host

• A rare crash can occur when a Gutter Runner is attacked by skeletons while all remaining heroes are invisible (Only possible in Chaos Wastes)

• A crash can occur when a Necromancer dies while wielding a 4th slot potion

• A crash can occur when a Necromancer bot is replaced or a Necromancer player leaves while being chased by a soul from the ‘Soul Harvest’ talent

• A crash can occur in long sessions when more than 511 of certain buffs have been added (e.g Necromancer’s ‘Soul Harvest’ ripped soul stack)

Please rest assured we’re working to resolve these crashes as swiftly as possible.

Hi @RebelComander,

That checks out, usually the Exit Code 0xC0000005 indicates an Anti-Virus/Firewall conflict.

You can also try adding Anti-Virus and Firewall exceptions for both Vermintide 2 and Easy Anti-Cheat.

You’ll need to add the following exceptions:

• vermintide2.exe in \Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Warhammer Vermintide 2\binaries
• EasyAntiCheat.exe in \Program Files (x86)\EasyAntiCheat

Please let me know how this goes.

I’ve sent you a DM!

Probably a ticket to our support desk and a penalty for griefing depending how often you do it. True Necromancers raise the dead, not help it along.

Infinite! They last until death, or until Sienna casts Raise Dead again. What the Army of the Dead talent does is make it so that your already existing skeletons don’t immediately disappear when you re-cast Raise Dead, and instead linger on for 20 extra seconds.

Yep! Same as previous DLC careers.

I’ve sent you a DM!
