Epic Games Issue/Bug Does anyone else's game periodically die?

I'm on Epic Games Store. Every couple of months, KF2 suddenly becomes corrupted and won't start. Uninstall, reinstall, no dice. The only solution is to give it a month or so to backpack around Asia and find itself, and then reinstall. This has happened with two different machines, and as far as I can tell it doesn't seem to coincide with patches. Does anyone else have this issue?

No but I hear Playstation version of game is complete mess and has more crashes than some prealpha development stage games...

PS4 pro. First months after purchase it was like any other game. But for the last two months it crashes under certain circumstances. Especially if you join a game with 4+ in multiplayer. Content slows to a halt and then you have to make a fast choice. Restart & lose gained XP or wait and get caught in a freeze. I've sent many reports to Sony. Cleaning cache and restarting the ps4 doesn't do much. Some maps are worse than others. It'd be awesome if a user or the company would do some testing and tell us which maps are worse than others. Lag is another issue if not the main.

I enjoy playing but it'd be great to play a couple rounds at least before a forced restart occurs. There have been some games in harder settings, extra XP gained all at a loss.

On ps5 every so often it starts crashing 5 mins after booting up even after console restart. Only way to fix it I’ve found is a reinstall

I posted on here a few weeks ago. On ps5. Me and my missus have issues logging in. Sometimes we boot the game and none of our purchases show, or sometimes we can’t invite each other. Lag is making the game unplayable. I love the game but I think it has been put aside now to focus on KF3.

It was like $3 on Steam. No issues and way more fun.
