I'll need your log file to determine why you crash. Most likely, being Windows 10, you have driver issues effecting the game.
To get the logfile, go to where you installed the game, click GearCity folder, and the logfile is named logfile.log. Attach it to a post in this thread. (EDIT: Note, you must get the log file after you crash, don't open the game again before you send me the logfile, as the data will be overwritten.)
As for the answer to your original question. It depends on why you're crashing. The Steam version is further along than Open Beta, however most cases of crashing are user hardware/configuration issues and not necessarily the game. Some of these I can fix, some of these I can't until the drivers are fixed. There was some fixes to Windows 10 support in our "Testing" branch on Steam. But it is unknown if this resolve driver issues some people are having with Windows 10 installs.
