Assassin cloak crashes game while spectating

Unfortunately i do not have footage of this issue nor the crash log.

On three separate occasions game crashed when two conditions were met:

1. I was spectating a teammate
2. Said teammate had line of sight of a cloaked Assassin or was the cloaked Assassin

Cloak in question could either be activated by entering smoke or through direct activation via ability.
Again i unfortunately dont have more to show but i'll try to follow up with a crash log if it happens again.

Thank you

Hey there,

Thanks for reaching out to us.

We understand that the assassin's cloak ability appears to be crashing the game when you're spectating. We can imagine the impact of such an issue. Should this persist, then please consider sharing these additional details for our investigation:
- Please clarify the platform you play on, is it Steam?
- List any other steps which reproduce this outside what you describe. For instance, does this only happen on specific maps?
- A linked videoclip of the issue. A site like Youtube would be ideal for this.
- Do you see any error codes or messages when you experiencing these crashes?
- A DxDiag, which you can copy and paste to Pastebin and then reply with a viewing link to.
Once we have the above information, we'll investigate this further. Thanks.

I'm playing on PC via Steam

So far it has only happened on Outpost, although i haven't played other maps as much in the past two days this has been happening. Also the crash happened as the Assassin was entering invisibility and i could still hear my teammates talk via voice chat as the game was frozen.

I didn't see any error codes

As for DxDiag. I'm not exactly sure what i should copy and paste, my system info?

I'll try replicating the crash myself and hopefully clip it as well as save any crash logs.
