I've noticed that this type of error occurs when: 1. Someone's joining my fireteam (tested in multiple activities like Astral alignment, the Crucible, strikes, even orbit or the Tower)->game stutters->rutabaga appears 2. Two or more people are entering the in-game voice chat (tested in the Crucible and strikes)->game stutters->rutabaga appears My pc specs are: I7 4790, gtx 1070ti 8gb, ddr3 16gb (can't remember mhz if necessary will update), win 8.1 These stutters started to appear with the Season of The Lost beginning. Until this time they were just an annoying problem that I could handle but rutabaga ruins all my inner harmony. I'll avoid playing competitive activities until the fix comes out so Ihope that I wouldn't be permanently banned after rutabaga appears in one of the strikes. Hope this info helps.
