Battlefield 2042 Random Crashes
Hello everyone, I have been having crashes in 2042 since its inception. I played this game in 3 different configurations and I can say that aside from needing a very stable overclock, you HAVE TO ...

Hey there.
At first the game was plgued by DX DEVICE HUNG errors. That was just unstable overclock on GPU, specially more prevalent on AMD as overclock settings kind of vary from game to game. So the fix for that is to set the AMD GPU tuning settings to stock.
On NVIDIA you don't tend to get too many driver errors. However the fix is the same. On AMD even undervolting the GPU instantly causes a crash even though its running underspec and is stable everywhere.
Recently my crashes were just no errors at all, the game would just close to the desktop. No warnings, no error message. Nothing. Which I instantly assumed it would be memory related. So ever since disabling XMP and just letting the rams be at default JEDEC settings from the motherboards. That fixed everything.
I was the only one getting crashes on 3 different PCs, the only constant is my PC master race need to tweak rams as high as I can. So I figured stock xmp/expo profiles would be stable enough. I was wrong. To stabilize all I had to do is set memory frequency to auto and let the board run with memories underspec. No more crashes/close to desktop. Game runs fine.
However it's a poopy fix, because the ultra low memory default settings make the game have massive frame drops sometimes. This is obvious behavior as the game is very CPU bound.
It plays fine with no crashes now.
How did you solve the problem? I am cpu is 5800x, although I turned down the frequency, the game will still flash back as well.
Hello,
Disable all kinds of overclock/undervolt if you have any. Run the game as administrator.
Don't run with browsers in the background.
My current frequency setting is automatic, open the game and wait for the eac to finish reading, the game will immediately flash back.
I never had that issue try verifying game files while running the ea app as admin.
Do you still have this problem? I did every possible thing on the internet. still, I getting random crashes with no error. and I don't know what to do other than stop playing this * game from DICE. BF 1 fine / BF V play 5 hr. no problem. Forza / R6 / OW2 / Dragon Dogma 2 you name it my PC play all without a dam issue. BUT BF2042!!! God have mercy on this * game.
Try removing your memory XMP profile.
Then clear the cache folder in the documents/battlefield 2042
Verify game files
