My game doesn't have sound and in a match, right after I fire my first weapon, the game crashes.
I have already downloaded the directX from the sticky post TWICE.
EDIT: Before installing the directX, the game would freeze in a black screen.

Getting sick of telling people how to fix it i think i spent hours other day trying to help ppl on steam forums. Not even a big fan of the game lol but thats just the person i am.
Now which direct x did you try to use. Web installer version less than a meg and it downloads from net or the 90mb odd direct x redist June 2010?
If u use the web installer then u have picked the wrong one. Get the 90mb one and extract when finished downloading and find and run DXSETUP.
Then try it. (might need a reboot)
Also check ur WR files, using steams verify files tool as alot of people are missing files causing alot of issues.
