    Okay, so it seems to crash pretty much every time I try to join a game.

    Hi, Liam! I see a lot of familiar nicknames in your logs, he-he. Hope you had a good play time.

    About your issue, what's your "Texture Handling" value? It's badly named and it means the amount of video RAM available. However, it's also incorrectly explained or implemented as you should NOT set it to the exact amount of VRAM but instead set it to your VRAM minus 512 Mb. For example, I have GTX 770 with 2 Gb VRAM and I set texture handling to 1.5 Gb. When it was set to 2 Gb I had random crashes all the time, now it's (almost) rock solid. Just don't Alt-Tab and everything else will be pretty good. I'm playing on Debian Stretch daily for 1-2 hours and I haven't seen any segfaults for a long while.

    I couldn't even play, so no I did not have a good time.

    I have an Nvidia 980ti with 6GB VRAM, the highest option is 2GB+ which is what I set it at. Are you saying I seriously need to turn it down...with 6GB VRAM.

    You could try at least. The main problem is that the game is 32 bit only hence it has access to ~3.5 Gb of memory at max, no matter how much you have physically. During the game memory gets fragmented and while you may have pretty low RSS memory (like 2.5 Gb), there's no single big enough piece to allocate for some task. And the game crashes then. It was alleviated a bit at some point but not completely.

    Try to set it to 1.5 Gb as I did and see if it makes any difference. Visually it doesn't change anything, but stability becomes nearly perfect. Only had a couple of black screens after map load recently but that's it. Most of the time everything is great. I noticed textures popping up when this settings is on 0.5 Gb, looks similar to Rage issues, low-res textures being replaced with high-res ones over time but on 1.5 Gb it doesn't happen.
