Halo 2 Scarab Skull causes game to freeze

Anyone else encounter the scarab skull causing the game to freeze entirely showing up as suspended in Task Manager? It seems to happen anytime I use the skull after a random period of time. Was using on Legendary paired with Bandanna skull. Not sure if that would even cause a problem. Happened on The Arbiter and Cario Station.

Specs:
1050ti
i3 6100
16 GB DDR4

It was happening often for me as well. Mainly when I picked up a weapon and tried to use it, especially the red plasma rifle. If I used the gun I started the level with it seemed to always work fine.

Make sure to file a bug about this on the Halo Support site

Were you using a plasma rifle at the time?

I was, I’ll have to submit a bug report if someone hasn’t already

I thought so. I encounter the exact same thing on the Xbox version of the game, so it isn’t just limited to PC. I think it has something to do with the rate of fire and the framerate not being able to keep up with it.

Did you have the Cowbell/Boom and Sputnik skulls on as well?
