Where did the issue occur? In a match
Which part of the map or menu were you in? If you don't remember the exact name, please describe the area or what you were trying to do in the menu. near a crate requiring a grenade to open in kings canyon
What were you doing when the issue occurred? E.g. respawning a squad mate at a beacon, using an ability, a squad mate left the game. put a second nade in the door when one was already in by a teammate

What happens when the bug occurs? Internal Server error... so game crashes for everyone. The video I linked shows exactly what happens. (only 41 seconds long) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3DarFKKqxQ
What should be happening instead? Nothing, I shouldn't be able to put in a second grenade or it shouldn't crash the server.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? See video I linked, or TLDR: put 1 grenade in a door to open a crate and 1 second later have your teammate do the same (more or less just make sure that the first grenade explodes while you're putting in the second). I did it twice just to confirm, sorry about that btw, I also posted it on reddit before I became aware of how to file a bug. https://www.reddit.com/r/apexlegends/comments/p1w0nk/gamecrashing_bug_found_with_my_longsquad_team/ (Clip is from the second time)

    Thanks for the posts. There was a quick hotfix to work around this, all the holds are open until the base cause of this can be addressed.

    Where did the issue occur? In a match
    Which part of the map or menu were you in? If you don't remember the exact name, please describe the area or what you were trying to do in the menu. Kings Canyon, any Explosive Hold
    What were you doing when the issue occurred? E.g. respawning a squad mate at a beacon, using an ability, a squad mate left the game. We both placed a grenade into the same slot of an Explosive Hold to open it
    Did your squad mates also experience the issue? Yes
    How many matches had you played in a row before the issue occurred? Many (We had been playing for probably at least 2 hours)
    When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) 10/8/21 14:55 EST
    How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
    How severe is your issue? Major impacts to gameplay
    What happens when the bug occurs? Immediately we (and I assume everyone on the server) get kicked to the main menu and see "Server Shutting Down - Internal Server Error".
    What should be happening instead? The Explosive Hold should open and we should be able to obtain guns/supplies as normal.
    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Step 1: Begin match on Kings Canyon with a teammate Step 2: Obtain any grenade for you and your teammate each Step 3: Find any Explosive Hold Step 4: Have you and your teammate insert a grenade into the same door of the Explosive Hold at the same time Step 5: Right at the time the grenade goes off is the same time you should be kicked to the main menu with "Server Shutting Down - Internal Server Error".

    Not sure if this is relevant information, but each of the 2 times we experienced this, we get kicked from each other's parties when we go to load back into the lobby. We also had not tried this with inserting grenades into both doors at the same time. So we don't know if that will also cause this issue.

    I clipped the first time this happened to us here: Explosive Hold Server Crash (26 seconds long)
