I just downloaded Origin and played a game of Exposure Breakthrough 64. This is half the number of players and there is only one location where the battle is taking place. Having said that, I was able to play twice without any problems. I will try again this evening when the full Exposure Conquest map is available and the number of players is 128. Will update you afterwards. Thanks for the suggestion!

Played multiple games of Exposure Breakthrough 64. Also I was using EA instead of Origin to start the game. No problems at all. So not sure what to say at this point. The real test will be playing on the Exposure Conquest 128 map. Don't know when it will be available again, but I try to play every day,
When the map comes back in the rotation, I will play it and give you a report. Will try first using EA, and if I get errors will try Origin. Let you know how things go.

Spent this past week playing on the Exposure Conquest 64. I am guessing that about half of the matches had crash dumps and thus I got no reward for all of those matches.
Today I contacted the company that build my 2 PC's, and asked what they thought. First they checked all the components in my PC to make sure they were working properly. They also checked for any updates, none were found. The technician was familiar with Battlefield 2042, but he had not played it much. Based on what I told him about the problems, it was his opinion that the issue was not my PC but rather some factor(s) in the the game, most likely the Exposure map.I just spent about an hour playing on the Exposure map with 128 players since it was back in the list of maps. In this time I had 5 "games". In two of them I was able to finish the match. The other 3 ended due to crash dumps, and I received nothing for my efforts to play. This is the biggest issue for me. I would not mind glitches, but when they rob me of any reward, especially with the current season, it takes away any motivation to keep fighting the whole mess.

Here are the files. Always get 2 CrashDumps per game that does not complete normally (the issue I have all the time).
Let me know if I can help further.

I have not changed the GPU settings via the Nvidia Control panel.
Here are a couple of screen shots of my Video settings.

The first time I tried it my screen went totally black after about a minute. Had to reboot computer to start again. Have played about half a dozen times since then. Yesterday was pretty good, no errors. But today it is about 50/50: half the time I am kicked from the game, the other time I can play till the end of the match. If it tells you anything, there was only one CrashDump the entire time. The reason for the rest were unknown.

Every day is different. I have Ray Traced Ambient Occlusion turned off since you requested it.
Some days I can complete 2/3 of the games. Other days, I crash almost every match.
Today I crashed in first game, second game no problems, third game crashed. Predominant errors are the CrashDumps.

Just turned Ray Traced Ambient Occlusion back on. Played 3 matches. Two were fine, one ended with a CrashDump.
Seems to me it does make any difference.

Not sure that there is a constant pattern. Just sometimes it crashes, sometimes it doesn't. Whether it is once ever 3 times, or not, really isn't the key.
The main point is where I started with my original post. In over 350 hours, I never had a problem playing or worrying about whether or not I would be able to complete a match. I never had a dump. I had never even seen a dump, Then something changed in your game's design. Now I can never count on being able to complete a match.
Playing a game where I may lose all advancement in a match at any point is more than frustrating. I do appreciate your help and suggestions, but I have a hard time understanding why the developers/coders for the game are unable to determine the problem and produce a fix.
Am I the ONLY person that has this problem?

@OldOlden, I do understand the frustration, however I am afraid that all we can do at the moment is try to collect valuable data as to what could be causing these issues for you.
A request; could you create a .zip file again with the crash dump files that the game created when you were crashing/are crashing with Ray Traced Ambient Occlusion turned off? - 4 years ago
Played 5 matches. Here are all the CrashDumps.

Found the solution to my problem. I disabled Ray Traced Ambient Occlusion, and selected DLSS.
Played off and on the past 2 days, and never had any problems.So nice being able to play the game again finally.

@OldOlden, oh that's amazing! Good to hear that this has worked for you. I will make sure to pass this info on to the team. 🙂
May I ask what kind of DLSS option you picked? And if you noticed any difference between the DLSS options?
Also, if the situation changes, please, feel free to update the thread. 🙂
