Fixing the Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War crash problem

With multiple players across the community running into the same problem, Activision Support had to publish an official blog regarding crashes and game freezes in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War as well as possible fixes.

The steps that players should follow to overcome the game crash problems are:

• The first step that players can try is to relaunch the game. If that doesn't fix the problem, they can try to reboot the console.
• After this, players need to connect to a working internet connection and ensure that all the drivers and updates are correctly installed.
• They can also check the official forums if it is a temporary problem and if a hotfix is on its way.
• If none of the above work, gamers can try uninstalling and reinstalling the game.
• If the game was installed on an HDD (Hard-Disk Drive), they should try and install it on a SSD (Single-Slate Drive).

Trying out all of these steps should help a player overcome the game crash issues in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War. Some of these steps are also known for fixing FPS-drop and stutter issues.
