Yes I:

1.updated all my drivers
2. did all the ini tweaks to try and solve this

Right after a coop terrorist hunt ends (we win) the sound of say activating an icon (that click) just repeats forever and eventually the game crashes to desktop.

doesn't happen in single player terrorist hunt. Seems like online only. Game runs fine everyone is fine then we beat the match and the screen showing kills/accuracy/ratio etc appears and click,click,click,click sound for about 30 seconds, and then the game crashes.

Yes I have had the same type of problem. Matter of fact it is exactly as you described. I found that if you don't patch the game to 1.01 you wont have this problem. I am sure they will get it fixed. I imagine UBIsofts people work hard. But, the do lack in the "getting back to you " department. It reminds me of my ex girlfriend Kimmy. Id call and leave her messages. She was terrible at getting back to me. Maybe I was a bit too excited to hear back from her and would get impatient. Maybe she was up to something. Who knows she hardly ever called me back. So I dunno what what was going on. I am afraid its a sad state of affairs nowadays with these PC ported from xboxjunk thrown back from the PS3. Have you ever noticed buying a game lately seems like picking out a new car. You get it all picked out down to the color of the paint. You pay for your new vehicle and your told you will receive the new car very soon. A week later the dealer calls you to tell you your car is ready.When you get to the dealer ,the car is on blocks. Your told that the tires will come at a later date. You will be able to pick them up when they become available in your area. (sound like a game you've bought lately Its not just this game. Its not just UBIsoft. They all dont run exacly as advertised . Dont get me started on Crysis what a pile of junk. Sometimes it hardly works. But it does half way. But, they will have it working just about perfect. 2 to 3 months before the new title comes out.

Hey Slip, Hopefully they fix this. I had to hack up the keller ini to even play the game right, and I definitely meet the requirements but still I had to do that and now this end match bug... it all sucks. It's very depressing. I definitely like the game but it's unplayable.

Maybe Ubisoft doesn't getting back to us because like Kimmy they are up to something. Probably too busy playing World of ****, raid weekends.

I also have had this problem. And its doing my head in. I love the terrorist hunt mode online and i JUST KEEP CRASHING. Anyway I hope they get it fixed.

Had the same problem when I installed and patched manually. (Something I always do)
In fact it would do it everytime we got killed and the game had to reload .. not just after completing a level.

Installed on another system and let it auto patch .. that one worked fine.

Rolled back the first system .. (I always back up my drives with Acronis True Image before installing a game like this one) .. reinstalled and let it auto update and now it works.

Would never have thought this would work, but since it worked on the second computer, I thought it was worth a try.

Hey thanks for the replies. I just don't want to reinstall, so I'll wait for Ubi to address this problem, hopefully before I just move on from playing their games. Nine out of ten of their games I've bought always give me problems. Actually around Splinter Cell: Double Agent and to date, things have never been good and I never learn my lesson. Make no mistake though, I think Vegas 2 is a tremendous improvement over the first, but since they released it so close to the summer, it's not worth waiting too long on, for a fix.

Well, I posted to soon!

It worked okay through the first 2 levels .. Import/Export and Trainyard.
In Villa it is freezing as described by StatesMan_Hero everytime we are killed and the map reloads.

I should have know better, but thought maybe Ubisoft was actually using the extra time with the game delay to fix problems.
Looks like they have added more!!!

This also happens in CO-OP Story!!
(*Multiplayer only)

The three big things that bother me most is this bug with the match ending to a stuttering click click click crash. The streaming textures which cause that lag when you first shoot or enter new areas, maybe unreal zone portals. It is a lag up though that shouldn't be there. Sometimes I'll revisit an area of the map where i lagged (if I survived) and fight guys and it's smooth as can be.) I can play games maxed out that are higher in requirements than Vegas 2, it's really annoying this happens and I easily meet the requirements. The third thing is the sound.

Threads about these things are all over though. I hope Ubi is reading them.

I get the same thing. After hosting for (maybe if I'm lucky) 2-3 rounds, the end summary screen freezes with the repeating clicking sound. Reboot.

I also took the manual patch installation.

Epic fail.

Okay Ubisoft!!

Are you going to fix this major problem or not??

According to prior posts, you test on LAN and this happens even when hosting multiplayer LAN, so what is your excuse for this one????
I have only tested CO-OP Story and T-Hunt so don't know if other multiplayer modes have this issue!

Single player runs with few problems and reloads when you have been killed or go to the next level, so this is a multiplayer issue!!!

This game should never have been released with so many old and new problems!!!

Another patch ... SOON???!!!!

Update:

For me this issue has to do with connected players.
I can host a CO-OP server and as long as no one joins, I can play all I want, get killed many times, and there is no freeze problem.

Now I just need to figure out how to resolve the problem when others have joined my server.

The problem is there for LAN or online!

yeh mine did the same to begin with,vegas 1 did exactly the same thing both while hosting, occasionly it would also quit to desktop when you was a player online as well,they didnt fix that,to get back to this game vegas2 now when it crashes it doesnt quit to desktop it locks up my pc, you cannot even get into windows to end task it hangs great work ubi now i have 2 games that are useless to play online,

Mine freezes when a match ends and it is going back to the lobby.
It seems many players are having this issue with the freeze and then clicking noises.

Sometimes I can hit ctrl/alt/delete and end the game.
My computer is still running fine .. it's just the game that's messed up.

Ubisoft never fixed all the problems in Vegas 1, so I'm not holding my breath until the problems are fixed.
(Many problems posted here)

What I am doing is advising everyone I know not to buy Vegas 2.
I already lost my money, but no one else has to!!!

Quake 3 of old ran much better than this and less lag on dial-up than Vegas 2 on broadband.

Really horrible net code!!

When I tried to join a game only 4 servers out of 17 showed a ping and those were high!!

Vegas 1 was much better than this!

Demonware is a pretty crappy company. I was hoping Vegas 2 wouldn't use them.

I just wish this issue with playing multi would be solved. I never had it in the first, which is also still installed on this computer. The second one though, end match, clicking and crash or I have to close it out of at the task bar. It sucks.

yeah.. I have the same problem. Crashes (shuttering thing) after I play 3-6 MP coop games when I serve. The shutter thing is (IMHO) is when its writing out the mem crash dump. I've it the reset button in the middle of it before, and the dump file isnt as big. Well thats my 2 cents worth...

UBI FIX THIS PROBLEM PLEASE !!!! NOW !!!

Also the AI SPAWNING FROM OUT OF NO-WHERE.. after I've cleared a room... NOT Realistic at all... "Have all the AI Spawn at the start of the MAP..."

THANKS

Yeah this specific crash makes the game IMPOSSIBLE to play and I can't believe they didn't make an emergency patch for this. It's totally killing the multiplayer, because a lot of people I know can't play. It sort makes me wonder why they even made it multi and put all that effort into it, if they aren't trying to fix this asap and communicate with us here on the forums.

As for the spawning this is so messed up too. I rather have it back the way it was in the first Vegas. Some maps where I know guys are going to spawn like behind a crate, I'll throw a grenade and be close enough to see the grain on the wood and nothing dies. I step forward just a little and a spas 12 terrorist appears right where i just tossed the grenade and kills me. I really can't believe in all those interviews where they said they improved they AI when they had the game sitting there working like this.

It's easy to believe Ubisoft hasn't fixed this and many other problems yet!

They still haven't fixed the many problems in Vegas 1 and never will!!!

Are all you guys using AMD processors?

No Pentium for me. I have a friend that I play with that uses AMD and he crashes this same method as I do. Never happened in the other game, just this one.
