Apex Legends crashes to desktop every single game on my brand new pc. It only crashes mid-game, and it is the only game that gives me any issues. There are no freezes, no stutters, no issues at all, then BOOM, crashes straight to desktop with no errors--as in the application just closes.There are no hardware issues, PC passes every benchmark and memory is good. I am not overheating. I get about 200ish frames and my monitor is only 165 hz. I do not have any stuttering or lag. Game runs great until it ctd's.I am so lost on resolving this issue. As far as I am aware, I have tried everything. Please help...Here is what I have tried so far: Uninstalling apex and reinstalling (twice) disabling all game overlays running adrenaline as admin running apex as admin ddu removing my gpu drivers and safely reinstalling - same with chipset (all drivers are good, I promise) disabling fullscreen optimizations, running with compatibility for windows 8 and 7, playing in fullscreen & playing in windowed unplugging my second monitor and just using 1 display port disabling xmp in bios updating my bios to F22 and then F23 Editing power plan to set max CPU power to 95% running the cmd to fix corrupted files. Also used ccCleaner I do not have a virus or any malware I have no crashing events in windows event viewer. System seems to think everything is fine. So annoying. These are just a few of the things I have tried. I just want to play the game with my friends. I have over 100 days played, made the switch from xbox to PC, and the game is completely unplayable. Very frustrating. My PC: ryzen 5 7600x rx 7800xt 32gb ddr5 ram b650 xax mb 850w psu 1TB nvme

Hello,After installing the most recent patch (5/7/2024), my game crashes before getting to the start-up menu.I have updated all my drivers, and I've verified the integrity of the game files on Steam. I have gone in and deleted everything in temp folder as suggested in other posts on this forum. That did not make any difference in my case.I'm at a loss of what to do. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.Relevant PC Specs: CPU: i9 14900kGPU: RTX 4070RAM: 64 GB DDR5

I would also like to add, I have installed the game via the EA app to see if the issue was at all related to Steam. Attempting to run the game from the EA app also resulted in crashes before the start-up menu.

Same exact thing is happening to me brand new PC and have check everything.

I've been having consistent crashing/freezing for a few weeks now. And after weeks of trying to get the game to crash without having OBS open, I finally did, so I can confirm it's not even a resource issue with PSU, cooling, or GPU. My temperatures were fine across the board. The hottest anything got was 86.1c and that was the hotspot on my GPU. I haveNVIDIA RTX 3080Ryzen 9 3900X CPU64gb RAM800W PSUASRock X570Game crashes on both Steam app and EA App and has been having multiple issues with it for the past few weeks. I had a 6 hour stream at one point and had I think 8 crashes? I crash in the firing range. The trigger seems to be specifically a command input. I've crashed 5 times in the firing range, and twice were the moment I pushed a button. One time I crashed unholstering a weapon, one time I crashed pressing F1 to upgrade my legend. I have been unable to generate any crash logs in the Crashpad section, so if my crashlogs are somewhere else please let me know where to find them. I just want to play the game. I was hoping the new update would fix my crashes and that didn't happen. This is daily, practically every 30-45 minute issue. Sometiems I crash within 10 minutes of booting up the firing range. This is major problem and I can't figure it out. I've messed with graphic settings, even turning on Vsync to adaptive. For some reason the only settings I have for Vsync are "triple buffered, Adaptive, Adaptive 1/2, and Disabled" so IDK what that's about. I did see an event in event viewer related to Windows Game Bar, and so I turned off Game Mode and am gonna pray that fixes it. But if not... something has to be fixed.

I've finally received an error code! This happened in the middle of a reload animation as well.

I have updated my system. I was on Windows 10 Home, now I have Windows 10 Pro. It still does not work.

Hey, folks

Okay, so just got word that the team is aware of connection issues and "crashing" issues. They are currently looking into this, so any troubleshooting at the moment will be limited as it is being reviewed.

Once we have information, we will update players and let them know what is happening!

Cheers!

Has there been any updates in regards to this crashing issue.
I decided to come back to the game after a year or so. Have freshly installed the game and updated my graphic drivers to the latest revision after a bout of crashing at startup.
Issue still persists after both fresh install and driver update.
I've checked event viewer and i'm not seeing any errors from the application itself that is warrenting a crash to be seen on the registration page after the EA and creator intro.
Just a heads up Hardware list below :
Asus ROG RTX4090 - Driver version GeForce Game Ready Driver 560.81
Intel I9 13900K
Asus ROG Z790 HERO motherboard
OS Windows 10 - 22H2

Had to registure quickly before it crashed. Once i was passed that page the game has not crashed.
So looks like there is an issue only on the start up page when "registuring". Might need to be looked in to.

@HardCover_TTV Sometimes i get this when i tamper with GPU Oc settings, the game really dont like that, but it may also result in game crashing like described by others here.
Even factory oc models of graphic cards has caused this for me. Reducing the coreclocks slightly, like 5-10%, and changing powerlimit slider has worked to improve things for me.

this issue is ongoing and is due to poor calls to the .dll runtime, you cant get around this bad programming an update is the only way to fix it, basically RESPAWN is not bothering to address this issue. So leaving is the only option as if you complete a challenge like me 5 times and every time it crashes and does not give you cradit, or if you are about to win and crash ... you loose. Its a no brainer, LEAVE the game alone auntil they fix it.
