Crash on launch

[UnfinishedDonut]

Game immediatly crashes on start up. I've played it for almost 60 hours without this issue.
My PC meets requirements, windows is up to date, drivers are up to date, directx is up to date.
Still crashes after verifying game files and a full reinstall of the game.
Game will crash before any screen pops up after the smaller RS2 logo. Two bug splats follow for some reason.

I assume you did this, but...

What about the Documents\My Games\Rising Storm 2 folder, have you tried deleting that? Reinstall and verify is good steps to do first, but all the config files in the documents must be done manually.

Just tried that, deleted documents/my games/rising storm 2 folder then deleted and reinstalled the game and it still crashes on start up. Don't understand why this is happening all of a sudden.

I believe I found the crash log.
