Am I the only one that cannot even play this game anymore due to a ridiculous amount of CTDs? I've never had this issue with CK2 until this patch.
2.2.1 CTDs out of control?

I had some crashes, but they've never crossed the line between annoying and unplayable.
I have played many hours and even ran ~200 years in observe. No crashes.
Have you tried starting a new game? Can you replicate the crash?
CTD is not a common issue as far as I know in the current release.

Think you need to dump your paradox folder after you backed up your savegame.
If you are playing a modded game and have custom rules like me, certain stuff like theologie and republic, holyorders and mercenaries. Those.
Need to be settled in, best is to not play those rulers and skip a couple days advance time from another ruler.
But I don't have CTD but something wierd, a game frooze today, while running in observe mode.
Ah well couldn't replicate the freeze so maybe just unlucky.
Anyway 2.2.1 Aside from the flag bug crash (which even till today can't fix with verify etc, cache dumping)
Is quite stable, compared to the other 2.2.0
So maybe you should explain more what is causing your CTD ?

It almost always happens when I'm at war and there is a lot of unit movement around my empire. I've already re-installed the game via Steam and updated my video drivers. Of course, this problem is happening on two different computers that I have... my laptop and my desktop.
This seems to be when it is happening for me as well - the two CTDs last night were both during big wars (whether I was involved or not.) Up until 2.2.1, CK has been very stable.

that is a bit harder to fix, how old is that savegame ? Cause there must be invalid units a couple 50k retinue/holyorders will not crash the game.
But having tons of 100k retinue/holyorders running around, yeah that might be a problem for the recalculations.
I haven't gotten problems with my old save games, mostly cause I kept upgrading every update to fix the problems.
Even before CM arrived (even had frustrating nights of modding
)But side issue can also be that your memory is being full, ok try this save the game fully not quicksave. Or compressed (edit part)
Save the game into a new path directory like /2.2.1/ then exit game and load it up again.
Skip a couple days, till everything is stabilised.
Then see if you still suffer crashes.
I'm unhappy to report some random CTD's also. Nothing specific appears to be triggering them. Playing in Ironman though. Could it have to do with save file corruption since the game is being saved so often due to ironman mode?
It actually became significantly worse after the official patch. Never had this problem before CM.
I'm going to see if this is an issue. As Drake_Hound suggested, it could be my save games. Prior to the official patch release I was getting fewer CTDs but corrupted save files that were Ironman disabled.
Not relevant in my case... I have 8 gb of RAM running Windows 8.1 x64. My desktop with 16 gb of RAM also on Win 8.1 x64 has the same problem.
Also, my desktop has an 8 core AMD running overclocked to 5 Ghz, watercooled that I bought last week. I assure you, it's not my rig. I have plenty of performance intensive games that run just fine. Actually I can't even play on speed 5 anymore on my desktop because it's like warp speed... First time I've ever had that problem!
Well upload a savegame in the bug reports. I'd happily look at it myself, but I don't have all the tools the devs do.
