    Yes, I get those as well. Just a random freeze mid game with no apparent reason (no alttabbing, not even steam overlay).

    Try lowering you texture quality to medium, or lower if it's already at medium. That at least solved the random freezes for me.

    How long does it freeze for?

    Mine freezes for perhaps .2 -> .5 of a second. Typically when new things are happening (ie: new sound file playing)
    The first time I go into the menu it runs like a dog, and takes 1 second to pop up while everything freezes. The times afterwards it runs fine.

    I used to run everything on Max, now down to low everything, but this doesn't fix it.
    Reverified - did not fix
    Deleted game and re-installed - did not fix
    Updated nVid drivers - did not fix

    I'm guessing my problem is the pre-caching or something as this did not happen in the past builds.

    3Lollipopz, it freezes forever.
    I get those short freezes as well, but it's not that much of a problem.

    I also get periodic game total lockups, I have deleted cache and revalidated files, updated drives, lowered graphics settings (I play on low and with most things turned off as i find lights extremely brutal on vision in this game) No game mods, No overlays. My freezes do not generally occur quickly, usually an hour or so into a game. and it usually happens when i am moving my mouse quickly, like in big fights with tons of skulks and my mouse is all over the screen tracking the little ######s.

    My game froze once or at least I thought it was frozen. No keyboard or mouse input would work.

    I unplugged mouse and keyboard nothing.. I alt escaped out and went back nothing.

    Then I hit just esc and my game came back. I think the esc menu was up but didn't load.
