I downloaded the recent 419.35 driver from nvidia when it first released a week ago. Ever since then the DEVICE_HUNG errors stopped but I have been receiving an increased amount of the other common errors:
DEVICE_REMOVED
bad_mod_info
and something that happens now and then is a texture error (which I have never received before this new driver).
I know the EA folks working on the forums are going to look at this and think "oh another crash complaint". But seriously, imagine a game you really enjoy playing where each match has a self enclosed progression system. Yet every so often the game will crash, ruining everything you've done for the past 10 minutes. You start a new game and 5 minutes in you crash again. You keep restarting and crashing until eventually you realise after every crashed game you feel less drawn to play the game since you know it will crash again.
I'm not kidding you either. I've crashed 9 times in the last 15 games. Yesterday I crashed around 15 times, the day before that I crashed a similar amount. Also, please don't refer me to any trouble shooting guides because I've spent the better half of two weekends trying 5 different nvidia drives, re-installing windows, making sure all my hardware drivers are up to date, re-installing all C++ software, played on low settings. I've literally wasted 2 weekends on troubleshooting, time I will never get back. Doing a job that I shouldn't be doing because the game shouldn't really be this broken. It's been 2 months since release of the game and you're still nowhere near to fixing the issue.

Currently there are no permanent solution. EA is currently working with NVIDIA and AMD to fix this major issue. All we can do is wait and give our feedback of what we encounter.
Hope you understand. Cheers!- 7 years ago
1060 6gb here. the new drivers were way worse then the ones before. game ran worse, had some artifacting / flickering in textures and had the device hung crash in 3 out of 5 games when before it happened like once a day. (which considering the errorless->desktop crash and memory crash happen WAY more is acceptable.)
seems like the new drivers are for RTX only. thx nvidia.
