      Every time I try to verify the integrity of my game files, the game also always downloads something for 3.4 MB.

        I have also noted that, weirdly enough, turning down my settings in game let's me play for way longer before I have frozen and alt-tabbed. With everything maxed out (minus DoF and FXAA) I can play for like 1-2 minutes max but turning certain settings like AA all the way down from TXAA 4x to off lets me play for like 10-15 minutes. It seems to let me play for longer at everything low + 800x600 resolution but it's obviously not as good of an experience as I'd like.

          I've also tried compatibility mode for Windows 7 and 8 (I'm on Windows 10).

            I've now even tried to add it as an exception to my Windows Defender and still it does the same thing. However, something weird did happen that fixed my game (until a restart of my PC atleast). While trying to fix my game, it crashed a lot more heavily(?) than usual. My other programs froze and there were a few visual glitches. Everything cleared up pretty quickly and so I launched the game only to see that I could now play. Unfortunately, I'm not sure how to replicate this or what it changed that let me play, but after restarting my PC to see if my game was fixed permanently, the regular freezing occurred.

              @lResxt I've also just now realized that you didn't mean the txt file... oops. I will upload them and post the link here! I have opened them in WinDBG a few times to no avail, but one of them doesn't open so I will link the 2 latest ones I have (caused only by inputting commands into the terminal after having frozen and alt-tabbed already).

              Here is the folder with two DMP files: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1_1Pt9X2uQqhz70SEuQnI6-LWrkOIKxlu?usp=sharing

              For me the one created on September 4th doesn't open and only the one from September 3rd opens but your mileage may vary.

                Another thing I've now noticed is that the game seems to work fine on online servers now, but if I launch into a solo match of zombies then the game alt-tabs me and won't let me back in.

                          Literally one day it started working. I don't really know why or how I made it work. I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help but maybe this will be picked up again by an admin or member of staff. I tried my best to document everything I tried.

                          EDIT: If you're on Windows, maybe try adding all Plutonium/BO2 folders (namely %localappdata%/Plutonium) as exclusions in Windows Defender.
