So I just got the game about 3 days ago, I've gotten to level 19 and so far the game has probably frozen/"crashed" about 20 times. I say "crashed" because no apex_crash.txt is ever generated because it always gives me the "Application not responding" prompt wherein I always have to end the process myself rather than it just crashing. When it happens the game freezes for about 5 seconds before I get the "not responding" prompt and the game never unfreezes so I have to either ctrl+alt+delete and end the task or restart my computer. If I don't restart and launch the game again I have profound FPS lag (20fps down from 180fps) and it's almost as if the game is running at a lower resolution or subsampled. The kicker is that this happens to every other game I try to play until I restart my computer (Overwatch, Destiny 2, GW2, etc.) So Apex crashing in this way is affecting my display/graphics as a whole. I have absolutely no problem playing any other game and can run most FPS games at high fps with no crashing or lagging, it's literally only Apex that is destroying my PC every game.
I have tried a bunch of youtube "fixes" including:
- changing application settings on the Origin launcher
- lowering settings in the graphics menu in game
- reinstalling
- moving the game folder to my SSD
- Origin repair game tool
- restarted my PC several times
- setting the Apex task priority to high
Attached dxdiag.txt should have all the info you need.
