Game Crash - Why So Often

Is it just me getting pessimistic in my old age or does the game seem to crash out so much more often than it used to?

It used to be a rare thing for 'City of Heroes has encountered a problem and had to close' to appear, followed by a verifying all files wait. Now it seems to happen pretty much every time I play at least once.

I know it doesnt just happen to me as often when teaming and entering a mission 3-4 members of the team will all disappear and gradually reappear as they log back in.

Is it a problem with the game or am I just blessed to team with people with the same problem as me?
