Just to further respond to this issue, we have found a cause to the game eating up all that RAM, and will hopefully have a fix out for it within the next 6 hours (max). This issue is due to a bug in DirectX9, causing the game to consume (over) double the memory it should be using. Hopefully this new build will stop the game from crashing due to memory issues, so we will let everyone know when it has been released.
