How to fix freezing ( dropship ) or countdown Easy Anti-Cheat is the issue !!

Dear all,  After 6 days of researching and trying too many ways to fix the freezing, I found out that EasyAnti-Cheat is reason for freezing the game, I did delete easy-anticheat from the game folder...

So yesterday I tried to unplug all USB devices except mouse/keyboard and game was still freezing but I completely forgot that I recently upgraded to a USB DAC, which I didn't unplug. So I unplugged just the DAC, started a new game and then plugging it back in when I landed and it does prevent freezing in the dropship. After dying I immediately started a new game, *without* unplugging the DAC this time and the game still works. I don't know yet if it is necessary to unplug my DAC everytime I quit and re-open Apex, or if it is now fixed permanently.

    @xewarriorfinally man, im really feeling so sad for u to not helping u, i thought only controllers players who having this issue, but it seems USB problem, Im glad u r back to the game, u have to do it everytime u opening the game, I keep my game running the day, so GG and happy gaming

    @EA_Kentit seems USB devices is the probem for the cheat, Easy Anity cheat think that those USB devices are scripted and it will free the game, I hope you pass this info to the devs

    thanks

    ok ok ok i see now 
     
    Eazy Anti cheat think that USB devices are scripted and it will freeze the game !! why ? idk ask easy anti cheat, but how do u fix it ? 
     
    if you are using controller or even if u plugged it into the pc, disconnect it from your pc and try 
     
    even tho if u have a headset that connected to a USB disconnect it it will working 100%
     
    it's a bug in easy anti cheat think that USB devices are scripted and it will freeze the game 
     
    we should wait till they fix this or try my tip to fix it 
     
    my tip will works for u. but everytimes u close the game u must disconnect the any USB devices expect mouse and keybaord, as soon as you are in match on ground connect them back 
     
    thanks
