Black Ops 6 beta crashing solutions

You can try to fix Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 crashes by using the following techniques:

  • Restart the game
  • Use a wired connection
  • Close out any other devices that use an internet connection
  • Press the ‘Run as administrator’ button on the Black Ops 6 file (PC)
  • Verify your file integrity (PC)
  • Clear your device’s cache
  • Ensure to install the latest updates
  • Remove other files not associated with the Black Ops 6 beta
  • Reinstall game file

Whenever I play a Call of Duty game, I use a wired internet connection since it helps reduce lag and crashing issues. You can also turn off any other devices, like streaming services, for a smoother experience. Although these options won’t entirely fix the problem, they should at least minimize it.

PC players seem to have the most trouble with Black Ops 6 beta crashes. You can use standard techniques, such as verifying your file integrity on Steam. You may also delete any unwanted files from MW3 and MW2. Sometimes, more space can help with the game’s various issues, focusing solely on the Black Ops 6 file.

If you’ve tried all the possible solutions, it’s likely a problem that’s beyond your control. With the launch of the Black Ops 6 beta, the influx of players is bound to strain the system, causing disruptions. This was evident during Weekend One, where matchmaking and login queue errors were prevalent.

On a positive note, the Call of Duty team has been proactive with updates, including the addition of more servers during the early access period. I recommend regularly checking the CoD Updates page for any new patches or announcements. There will undoubtedly be more improvements to come, so keep an eye on your game’s update section.
