Game crashes on match entry or randomly mid-match due to corrupt citadel pak01.vpk. Can't verify the game files until after the match that I "abandoned" is over, so I can't even load back into the game (unless everyone else quit...). Getting increasingly banned as well since it happens so often. I've turned off any RAM acceleration as well since that was a common thing that's been posted as well. I was able to get through like 20-ish games and had another crash, caused me to be banned for a day (last ban was a week ago also for a single day) plus 2 low-priority games now. Enjoy the game but getting punished for an issue that hasn't been addressed at all is frustrating. The streak came from verifying game files before boot, letting shaders load, and then sitting in spectator for a random game for 15-20 minutes. Maybe I got hasty this time, maybe I was just lucky before idk.
