EA Staff (Retired)@OldMateGreyhound Can you try adjusting settings, or running a repair on the game to see if this continues?
Yes I've spent hours on chat to support trying to get a fix
@OldMateGreyhoundI'm not sure what has been done. But this game is not overly buggy when it comes to these issues. Very often, if not in the majority of instances of issues on a PC, it has little to do with the app and a lot to do with your PCs configuration and or limitations.
Easy for me to say as a PC tech, but there are very few issues you cannot fix or explain in the PC space, it just takes time. With PCs the burden to resolve issues, is rarely on the developer unless it's a known or possible app issue, as a prior post shown, Nvidia driver update was required, very little to do with EA there.Always rule out the PC as a cause first, this is why you'll always see dxdiag requests thrown around first.
@CafuddledAhahaaahahahahhaha! Bro, are you ok in your head??? The game is barely playable, it has bad, VERY BAD mouse input since the beta, terrible performance, even on high-end PC-s, and you say peoples' PC-s are wrong? LOL!
@Jozso987I'm a PC tech, the reality is most computer issues are to do with the device/configuration than the apps themselves.
You're talking about loads of bugs, poor performance. The reality is I have no performance issues at 4K, I have very few bugs, nothing even close to game breaking. I can sit there playing for hours on end with nothing happening of note.
So are these bugs for a very vocal minority. Are users using out of date drivers or barely functioning hardware getting all upset at a game that pushes it hard? Keep in mind, not all software loads are equal. You can have a unstable system that will work fine with one app or most apps but will fail abysmally on others. Overclocks, many people will overclock and think because it does not crash in name your game or benchmark it's fine, very untrue.
To give you an idea, the last issue I had was 2042 was resetting the resolution randomly, secondary issue is my keyboard with a display was also crashing. Turned out my GPU was not seated perfectly and a pin was intermittently losing connection. Reseat and now everything worked fine. Think I blamed the game, no I know better, most people that blame XYZ app for anything and everything are typically coming from a place of ignorance.
That said there are no absolutes, but always look objectively rather than being sensationalist.

Would it be possible to get a DxDiag?
