Summarize your bug Game crashes (completely shuts down Xbox One X) when attempting to pilot fighter planes. This happens 80% of the time per match. Crashed only once while piloting a helicopter. Unknown if this is map specific or type of plane specific. Appears more often with the Russian air raft(?). Xbox is plugged into wall outlet and only crashes at the specific time. Crashes at no other time. No other games are affected.
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Fly the fighter planes on any map. Crashes within about 2-3 minutes of flying the plane. Occurs in both multiplayer and single player matches.
What happens when the bug occurs? Game freezes. Xbox One X shuts down/power cycles. Cannot return to menu at any time.
What should be happening instead? Not crashing while flying planes.
- Xbox One X
- @5nate1776 Same thing, but for me it's both helicopters and jets.
Hard crashes have been happening since release for me consistently. Unbelieveable that a "AAA" title after all this time is LEGITIMATELY unplayable. EA absolutely refuses to own up to it. I'll tell you what their response will be. They will blame it on your airflow or temperature even if clearly none of those are the issues, which you will state, and they will in response then blame it on your hardware saying the CONSOLE is the problem. Despite hard crashes not happening in any of the dozens of other games you own and the tons of other people reporting it. So good luck getting any help from these unprofessional, copy paste response * posting, joke of a * "support team".
- @yomuddaisaho Reminds me of Bethesda titles at this point. But we keep buying them…
I am like 99% sure it is the Su57 causing crashes. I am on xbox one x as well and it seems like every time the game crashes, the Su57 is somewhere flying by in the freeze frame. Multiple times I have been in a gunfight on a hill with someone and the Su57 comes over the hill and the game crashes as it is in my view.
- @BronBreezy You may be on to something here. Maybe it just so happens I’m in a jet while dogfighting a SU57. It’s a real bummer since the rest of the game runs great.
- @BronBreezy You’re right - it’s every time one comes into frame for me - just now one flew by and the games hung again…
I’m also 99% sure this is the culpritYep, was just having a good game but an Su57 flew by and here I am ☹️ Just wish it would get resolved already!
Same exact * happens to me. Did they find a way to fix it?
