I've found a temporary fix. Hopefully an update comes out soon that helps further. Here are the steps I do in order to not crash. This HAS to be repeated every time you want to launch the game.
-Delete Battlefield 2042 temp file folder located in Appdata - Local - Temp. Typing %temp% in windows search will open the folder. There's some odd characters in the battlefield 2042 folder name. Just delete the entire folder.
-Delete all folders in battlefield 2042, located in documents folder. This causes you to reset all your control settings, sounds, graphics, ect...
-Open EA App Recovery and delete cache. This is located by typing in EA app recovery on windows search.
-Once game is open, set FPS to 60hz, change graphics presets to medium, and under advanced in graphics turn everything off EXCEPT vertical sync.
No idea what's going on. I have a 144hz monitor, as well as good hardware to run the game on high/ultra with 100+ FPS constant. Playing the game at 60 FPS is the major downside, but it never crashes. I've tried changing some settings, and it seems having the refresh rate higher that 60 is what causes the crashes. Not sure if having any of the advanced options on would cause it to crash, but all the steps I've listed makes the game work for the session.
Hope this helps anyone who tries to google for answers. I was hoping EA would respond and use any dxdiags to patch this out. Shame that once this game actually became somewhat enjoyable, it doesn't work.
