Campaign crash at loading for Ascension

Game works in every other mode but when I play the campaign I get to the loading screen for lvl 3 and mid-way through the briefing the game closes out with no error message. Drivers are up to date. Tried adjusting graphics up and down with little improvement. Can play the first two lvl’s with no problems, (loading a saved game, starting a new campaign, and loading a new mission) but once I get to the mission briefing the game just crashes.

Intel core i5-2500k at 3.30 GHz
8 GB ram
Radeon had 7900
windows 10 pro 64 bit

Got the same problem, but for me, it loads up with my friend into the first second of the loading screen but then it just goes down to the keybord and closes the game, I would LOVE a solution this very moment… it’s painful to play a game that ain’t close to finished yet. sadly that’s how the world looks like today…

but yea, a solution this instant would be great! have a nice day, I hope the staff can fix it and all, see ya!
