I used to have an engine error for the game, but used several fixes such as rolling back drivers and transferring it between SSD and Hard Drive, aswell as repairing the game.
Now Engine error doesn't pop up anymore, but instead another problem has popped up. I keep freezing and then crashing midgame, about 5 minutes or 10 minutes whilst playing Apex in the lobby or in the game. All of my drivers are up to date, and the specifications of my computer are good enough to run the game at all high, but I have moved back the settings all to the lowest possible.
I have exactly the same Problem, started out with an engine error, got that fixed now i either lose connection in Lobby all the time or the game freezes and crashes after 5-10 minutes midgame or in lobby. hmu when you found a solution or anything PLEASE!

And yet another thread about this.. as far as I know people with all kinds of specs experience these issues and there's no real solution for this.
There are a lot of different things people claimed to have fixed it for them, including rolling back their GPU drivers(especially with AMD GPUs), disabling Origin ingame overlay, making sure neither steam nor discord runs in the background, disable G-Sync, run the game fullscreen instead of borderless and so on...
As far as I can tell there's no real solution for this though and all we can do is hope Respawn fixes these issues soon.

I have tried all the so called "Fixes" rolling back drivers, full screen, no over lay, etc. and none of them work.
This should not be on players to fix. EA should have this fixed already if they want people to play this game.
I came from fortnite hoping this game would be better. I like the game play better but with the constant crashes and no solution from EA, im deleting the game and going back to fortnite. At least it is stable.

Thank you, it solved my problem.
Turning apex from fullscreen to window view made, that the game still freeze sometimes, but I dont have to restart my computer and start new game.
It looks like when the game lose connection its freezing. After this change it normally let me play after 5 sec freeze.
There is no option to reconnect or any information, that your ping is high so maybe this is the problem.
Ty again, maybe next patch will solve it 😉

MY FIX!!!
Have not been able to play for 4 days straight, I grinded level 50 with 50hrs of gameplay before freezing and getting shot to the desktop everyyyyy single game.
I tried every fix imaginable and went through 50+ forum pages. I was legit heartbroken that this game wasn’t working.
i don’t know that the ingame settings have anything to do with the fix but possibly. So I turned every option to either disabled or low, 2gb of VRAM. Can’t even tell the difference from when I played on insane 8gb with other things on medium.
The TRUE FIX came from my overriding the in game settings through Global Radeon settings.
Settings are:
Anti-aliasing: override application settings-2x
multisampling method
Morphological:off
Anisotropic filtering mode: override application settings-2x
Texture filtering: performance
Surface format optimization:ON
Vertical refresh: off unless application specifies
Tesselation mode: Override application- max(2x)
Workload:graphics
Chill off
FRTC: off
I use freesync+enhanced sync
I saw the change come when I over rode the in game settings! All else is simply a variable and I do not think it has an impact but I have put it there anyways to try and help anyone out. Please post any questions as I do not want anyone else to continue going through with the hours of suffering that I did!

Yea they really need to fix this problem, it is happening more frequently now and its getting to the point where i dont even want to play the game anymore. Dont get me wrong i love this game and its so much fun, but when you get to be one of 2 players left in the game from 2 different squads and you have over 10 kills during the match and you get frozen and the game just quits on you. Its dumb and really pisses me off. Happened twice to me and its really getting frustrating.
