I am still encountering this bug just about every time I play. UI Elements will be constantly buffering, including the map which sometimes will just never load.
I've tried clearing cache, documents folder, reinstalling, repairing, and even a fresh Windows install at one point and nothing has fixed this bug. My PC is more than capable of running this game so it's not a hardware issue.
Attached video and images show the extent of the issue.
Please post a DxDiag report. I suspect a slow storage drive might be causing the buffering.

Like I said, my PC is more than capable. I have the game installed on a Samsung 980 pro and have also tested with my 970 evo plus. But here is the DxDiag.
Try deleting these cache folders.
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\BattlefieldGameData.kin-release.Win32\cache
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\BattlefieldGameData.kin-live.Win32\cache
Just tried this. 3 games in and UI elements again not loading.
It looks like you've been playing BF2042 for a while. How long has the UI buffering been happening. Did it suddenly start happening after a recent game update?
Yes, I've been actively playing 2042 since release. I made a post about this issue 7 months ago but it had been happening for at least a couple months before that as well I think. So I'll say I've had the issue for around 10 months or so 😅 I have a friend who has had this issue as well.
This is a long shot. I saw in the DxDiag a CORSAIR K70 RGB PRO 8,000Hz keyboard. Some people have reported Battlefield behaving strangely with 8,000Hz keyboards.
Try launching the game without the 8,000Hz keyboard plugged in and see if anything changes. You can also plug 8,000Hz keyboards into a USB 2.0 hub which will drop the keyboard's polling rate to 1,000Hz. Dropping the polling rate to 1,000Hz in Corsair software won't work.
I just checked my iCue app and the keyboard has already been running at 1000hz polling rate
Setting the keyboard to 1,000Hz in iCue software settings only affects the keyboard's response rate. The PC's USB host controller will still poll the keyboard at 8,000Hz, but the keyboard will only respond at 1,000Hz.
Launching the game without the keyboard plugged in is the easiest way to test if it's causing issues with Battlefield.
Ok I'll give it a go then.
