Where did the issue occur? In a match
Which part of the map or menu were you in? If you don't remember the exact name, please describe the area or what you were trying to do in the menu. It seems to happen in any area, I have not crashed in any specific place
What were you doing when the issue occurred? E.g. respawning a squad mate at a beacon, using an ability, a squad mate left the game. It happens while doing anything, walking, looting, mid fight - never in lobby or while loading, always in game. Only in Apex - no other game so far. Also seems to happen a lot while flying.
Did your squad mates also experience the issue? No
How many matches had you played in a row before the issue occurred? 3
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) 14/08/2022
How often does the bug occur? Completely random. But will happen a few times during one sitting
How severe is your issue? Big impact on gameplay, potentialy damaging to my computer. Makes ranked grinding much harder and really makes the game less enjoyable for me - and my friends waiting around for me crashing
What happens when the bug occurs? The game crashes without error. Everything freezes and I can hear game audio for about 5 more seconds. If I ever have Spotify/a discord call I can hear audio through there and still talk on calls.
What should be happening instead? game should not freeze and force me to restart
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? It seems to happen a lot while flying, but has happened at just anytime throughout the game.
