Found a potential fix for this problem. I was dealing with a similar issue, crashing on launch, maybe load the game for 2 minutes, then crash. I play on PC using next gen intel processor, which is where the problem lies. To fix it, I installed the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility Tool, dropped the performance core ratio from 55 to 53, applied the changes, then game runs fine.
