I still haven't crashed since I shut down discord. But I'm positive now we're all experiencing the same symptom but from different causes, althought the underlying bug might of course be the same.
Got a solution for y'all Go to the Game Properties of Apex Legends Then go on Advanced Launch Options and type in "+fps_max 100" It worked for me, I've been having this problem since I started playing the game and today I fixed it with this

Both my friend (rx 580, i5 8350k) and me (gtx 1070ti, i5 8600k) tried the "+fps_max 100" line and it still keeps crashing. Later in the day we will try to adjust the virtual memory. I also heard somewhere that increasing the FOV (filed of view) causes crashes, so it's best to set video settings to default.
Things we tried that didn't work for us:
- disable GPU, CPU and RAM OC
- set everything to low
- reinstall game to SSD/HDD
- install latest BIOS
- windowed mode/borderless window mode
- set apex compatibility to windows 7 (we have windows 10)
- disable full screen optimisation
- reinstall/repair game/origin
- repair anti cheat
- try out both 1803 and 1809 windows builds
- he tried out 3-4 latest AMD drivers, I tried out 3 latest Nvidia drivers
- disable all background overlays, after that we disabled all those apps (discord, msi afterburner,...)
- disable origin in-game and overlay together with the overlay exclusively for apex in the game settings menu inside origin
- set origin/apex to run as administrator
- in the Nvidia drivers i set apex power management mode to high performance, maximum pre-rendered frames to 1, enable all cuda cores, enabled threaded optimisation, turned v-sync on/off
- can't remember anything else...

With all these tried out, community managers think that the problem is on your systems ( https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/Crashes-unacceptable/m-p/7470806/highlight/true#M12658 ). What a joke, right ? I don't expect to see a fix any time soon. Don't get your hopes up high.

LOL and to think I literally said they would come after some time and say it was a problem with our hardware. We're in big numbers but we're still a minority, and knowing EA, they won't move a finger unless it affects their pockets.
This is pathetic and I think I lost all my remaining hope.
"Given that most users are not having issues with the game" translates to "Come back when we give a *". This is the difference between a respectable company and EA. If this was a respectable company or even an indie developer, they would try to make sure everyone can play the game if they meet the minimum requirements. What's even worse is the fact that we can't do anything about it unless some big YouTuber makes a video and that video happens to get some views. That's how gaming works nowadays. This was the first and last time I had anything to do with EA. I learned my lesson. - 7 years agoworks for me, got at least 10 big games today

disabling cores, adding more maximum pages, no v sync, launch option for max fps 60 seems to do, no discord, disable origin ingame, window mode
