Emergency Compatibility Break: Discord Game Overlay may silently conflict.
While it is very close to the end of 2042's Free Pass for BF6, and to the launch of BF6 itself, it has been discovered that the Discord Game Overlay, the way it interacts with at least AMD drivers but possibly also others, and how it interacts with Battlefield 2042 may cause a severe breakdown within Battlefield 2042. What this breakdown appears to manifest as within Battlefield 2042 is the following symptoms: 1. Textures and shaders taking too long to load (A few to Tens of minutes/most of the match, as opposed to just 1 to a few minutes at most. SSDs mask this problem with their Asynchronous I/O support and higher I/O activity potential, but do not outright stop it.). 2. Shaders not loading correctly or with full detail, even after tens of minutes of gameplay. 3. Specular effects on player outfit materials not appearing consistently or at all when actually in a map. 4. Soldier outfits/uniforms and bodies sometimes only having the Mud material applied to all of it, as a consequence of shader material layering breaking down. If you wish to avoid this problem for now, going into Discord's Game Overlay settings and turning off the Messages and Go Live notification setting may help for now, or even turning it off outright for Battlefield 2042 may also help. This is not a complete solution, however, as few players will ever want to set those manually in practice. A real compatibility fix may require one of the following: 1. Adding explicit exceptions for the Discord Game overlay and its DLL injection mechanism within EA Anticheat. One of the first places the Discord Overlay will like to display and render is in anti-cheat windows, as seen with Easy Anti-Cheat. This may have to be accounted for here also. 2. Adding explicit exceptions for the Steam Overlay and its injection mechanism if not already accounted for. It likes to hang the game a little whenever it is invoked and rendered for the first time compared to the EA App Overlay, and I wonder why that is. 3. Releasing a hotfix for Battlefield 2042 to better account for this source of interference. This is also mentioned because it has likely been an issue for at least 1 year, and since it may or may not also affect BF6 a little to a lesser extent. I will have to retest BF6 when it launches, but for now, see if this nets anything worthwhile.
BF2042 new issues today
Yesterday I played for 4 hours with a few minor crashes as usual but today, I download the BF6 pre-download as I had an email saying I could. That all seemed to download just fine. I also uninstalled the files from the BF6 beta while I was at it. So today I was just going to play 1 or 2 maps after I got my work done and it's a major nightmare yet again. First I got a green screen error about a page fault and it mentioned the Microsoft Insiders Version which I do not even use andafter a reboot the game would not load with some error about trying again later as the issue was on EA's side. Then I tried again later and now I am getting error messages about my game files being corrupt so I look up how to fix it and delete the Battlefield folder after trying to delete the 2 profile files that didn't work. I have to CTRL/ALT/DEL to get past the corrupt file errors and shut it down. All I keep getting is errors about my game files being corrupt. I even uninstalled BF2042 and the EA AntiCheat and still get the same errors. WTF?? So I tried to load BF4 and it works fine...Go figure. Arrrrrrrrrggggggggghhhhhhhhhh!Bugged WHEELED WARRIOR Trophy
I've spend decades of hours to get the last achievemnt in my steam version game. And after hourds of suffering playing with LATV4 this achievement didn't pop up. Nor in EA account neither in STEAM. Guys, that's a shame. A tiny indie studio can't fix the problex with the one single achievemnt for months! DICE DO SOMETHING FOR GOODSAKE [CM - updated thread title for clarity and visibility]
Can't Connect to BF2042 – Ban Removed (Error EC:10901 / EC:10608)
Hi EA team and community, I’m hoping someone can help or clarify what’s going on. I was previously banned from Battlefield 2042, but that penalty has since been removed and the case is now marked as closed. However, when I try to launch the game, I still can’t connect — I consistently get error codes EC:10901 and EC:10608, and sometimes a message that says “your account is banned.” This has been happening for over a week now. I’ve tried: Restarting my PC and router Clearing cache Reinstalling the game Logging in from different devices Nothing has worked. The ban is lifted, so I don’t understand why I still can't access the game. On top of that, I’ve spent hours trying to find a way to contact EA Support or the Terms of Service team again, but there’s no way to open a new case. Every time I submit through the webform, I just get a message saying “Thanks for submitting your issue. Choose an option for more help,” with no confirmation email, no case ID, and no actual contact or resolution options — just self-help articles. I’m completely stuck here. I just want to get back into the game and earn those precious Battlefield 6 skins before it's too late. Can anyone point me in the right direction or escalate this to someone who can actually look into it? Thanks, BowWasTakenI got banned withou reason and notice

Some maps are partial or not available in portal - conquest custom. Can you please make it so that we can make our custom conquest with all maps and all sizes of those maps. Now we can only make custom conquests with some maps and only small and medium. The BMP-2 and M3A3 Bradley are not available in portal conquest custom. Please update portal to have all the maps and all the vehicles
Hazard Zone is unplayable for the last two days.
For the last two days Hazard Zone has been completely unplayable, every time I find a match on a Discarded map, the game is stuck on loading screen and it loads endlessly and I have to restart the game to get back to the menu. Also cannot find any other map than Discarded. Please restart the servers or something.
No EA Games Will Launch
Hello All, Recently I have installed a new motherboard, CPU, and RAM and am having issues trying to launch any EA games from the EA App and Steam. When trying to launch Battlefield 2042 and/or Dead Space, I continuously get the same error message. I have been down the rabbit hole the last 48 hours trying to troubleshoot this and have tried every way me and others could think of. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game 5 times. I have cleared the EA Cache for the app and reinstalled 3 times. All of my NVIDIA drivers are updated. I have no overlays active to get in the way. I have repaired the game 4 times on EA App. I have validated game files 7 times on Steam App. I have run everything on administrator. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Anti Cheat. My C++ redistributable packages have been repaired and are up to date. There seems to be no issues with my DirectX. I have moved the game around in my files and it still won't launch. I have wiped and reinstalled windows twice. Is there anything I have not tried yet? After previous error message the EA App will display this as well. Other games like Minecraft and Terraria work perfect, exponentially better with the new parts. It's just something wrong or a quirk I'm missing with the EA games. Please let me know anything else to try, if need be, I can provide a Dxdiag txt so that those of you who are much smarter than me can really look into the specifics. Thank you and please reach out!
Persistence data issue
I've tried several methods to correct this issue. For some reason, if I don't open the game once every couple of days, I can't open the game at all. I'm continuously met with the "unable to load persistence data" error and the following code: Error code: 15: 136006S:136003S:126001S:136002S:-7A Not sure how to fix this past uninstalling the game, deleting any and all files related, then redownloading the game. Anyone know how to fix this and can actually explain it step by step?EAAntiCheat crashes BF2042 ALL THE **bleep** TIME!
I ran the mini crash dump in WinDbg; 🔍 Crash Summary Detail Value Exception Code c0000005 (Access Violation) Faulting Address 0000000000000000 (Null pointer dereference) Instruction Pointer (RIP) BF2042!GetDenuvoTimeTicketRequest+0x6a9845 Read Address rdx = 0x0 → mov rax, [rdx] Module BF2042.exe Symbol Name memory_corruption!BF2042 Verifier APPLICATION_VERIFIER_LOADED: 1 CHKIMG Errors 256 errors in Frostbite image region per CoPilot: 🧠 What This Means The crash occurred while trying to read from a null pointer (rdx = 0x0), which is a textbook dereference failure. The function GetDenuvoTimeTicketRequest is likely part of the anti-tamper or DRM handshake—Denuvo’s time ticket system validates runtime integrity. The CHKIMG_EXTENSION shows 256 image corruption errors in the Frostbite module, which suggests memory corruption or tampering—either from a mod, overlay, or a failed integrity check. APPLICATION_VERIFIER_LOADED means Windows was actively monitoring for heap and handle violations—this crash might’ve been caught mid-corruption. 🔧 Likely Causes 1. Anti-Cheat or DRM Conflict Denuvo handshake failed due to a null pointer. Could be triggered by: G Hub overlays (you’ve already isolated this before) Macro injection or input emulation Background apps that hook into BF2042 2. Memory Corruption The memory_corruption!BF2042 symbol and CHKIMG errors suggest the executable image was altered or corrupted in memory. Could be: Faulty RAM (less likely if other apps are stable) GPU driver instability Overlays or mods interfering with Frostbite’s memory space 3. Race Condition or Uninitialized Pointer The null rdx might be a race condition—pointer not initialized before access. Could be tied to timing issues, especially if BF2042 was under load or alt-tabbed. ----- Guys, before I start playing, I turn off GHub, revalidate steam files & repair the game through EAAnticheat hoping the **bleep** game won't crash because IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME I PLAY. I sincerely hope you guys fix this problem when BF6 releases.

Draugr DRFM Jammer Fails
Occasionally, when you're in the Draugr and getting the Missile locked on warning, activating the DRFM Jammer still allows the missile to be launched. This happens very often, at around a third of the time. It doesn't matter how fast you activate the jammer, the missile warning disappears but then the next message is "missile incoming" and the missile is on its way. It appears this happens most often with the Wildcat's AA missiles.
AT Mines on Breakthrough Disappearing when Placed with Lis
Hello I'm enjoy playing Breakthrough on Imo Jima in the Europe region on PC. I have found a bug that is reproducible regarding AT mines and Lis as a specialist. If you select Lis as a specialist and AT mines as one of your gadgets and you place the mines on the ground near an objective, the mines simply disappear after a while (see video). This happens on all objectives that I have tried it so far. Ideally the mines should act as a bit of a vehicle deterrent and not disappear. https://youtu.be/hZsBC2bLF1s Thanks for having a look.
