    The current pre-release of the client ("pioneer" in the version) is only compatible to itself. So you can only play with other testers. Please be aware!

      Was playing this morning with no issues.
      Left game on whilst had a nap.
      Session expired, logged back in.
      Now when I click 'launch game' it freezes and I have to ALT + CTRL + DEL > [change user] to get my computer back.
      Tried six times with three different maps, identical results.
      FAF 2022.12.0

      EDIT: Came back after 8 hours and tried again: no problems. So, don't know what the issue was, don't know what resolved it.

      EDIT: Two days later, it's doing it again.

        So good to see that this got zero responses.
        Five months later, FAF is still doing this.

          Launching game freezes computer.
          I have been having this problem for months and have posted previously but got no response.

          I log in, select a map, create game, change some options, launch game.
          Screen freezes at that, whole computer is hijacked, can use ALT + TAB but screen goes back to frozen FAF, only thing that I can do is CTRL + ALT + DEL and change user to kill FAF.

          There are no error messages, just a frozen screen/PC.

            It's a volunteer organization - you get what you pay for.

              are u playing windowed mode or fullscreen? SC doesnt like the latter and is known to cause issues when u ALt-tab.
              technical support channel on FAF discord is usually the better place to ask if u got issues.

                There is nothing to work with, you need at least attach a log and tell some basic information about your PC.
