    The error you are seeing is one relating to your GPU @Baddoggy1, the best thing to do is a clean install of your GPU drivers. 

    You also need to ensure that you:

    • Turn on vsync
    • Perform a clean bootbefore attemting to play the game
    • Ensure you have power supply capable of meeting the demands of your hardware while it is under heavy gaming load
    • Set all in game graphics settings to low in order to reduce the stress on your GPU.
    • Set the high performance preset in your GPU control panel, as opposed to the high quality preset.
    • Run your video card at stock speeds (memory and core). This is also important for players with factory overclocked cards. This will require some third party software such as EVGA Precision or MSI Afterburner etc.

@EA_Darko hey, its me again.

Installed the game on my spare PC on a normal HDD to see if it is a SSD specific problem.

Ran into a new problem instead. This crash did no generate a report either but i manage to take a picture of it.

0x887A0006 - DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG The applications device failed due to badly formed commands sent by the application. This is an design-time issue that should be investigated and fixed. 

I am running my spare PC on INTEL CPU/ AMD GPU instead of my previous PC AMD CPU/ NVIDIA GPU setup.
