I am experiencing frequent crashes while playing Battlefield 6 on my Xbox Series X (purchased February 2022). The game often crashes (after playing from 5 to 10 minutes) to the Xbox desktop or occasionally causes the console to shut down with a black screen. This occurs in both multiplayer matches and single player campaign, as well as during map selection in custom search.
I have tried both Performance and Fidelity graphics modes.
Other demanding games on my console (Battlefield 2042, Forza Horizon 4/5, Microsoft Flight Simulator, NHL series, Mafia: Definitive Edition) run for hundreds of hours without crashing, so I don't think it's an issue with my console.
I have already reset my console to factory settings and confirmed the latest updates from Xbox and Battlefield are installed. Please advise if there are any known issues or workarounds, or if there is a fix planned. I really want to play this game as a BF 20+ years veteran.
This has been happening to me since launch. I followed the instructions on what to do and even reinstalled the game without the HD packs and it just froze twice, once back to the homepage and once completely shut down the xbox. Mostly on conquest but its happening on all game modes. I was skeptical about buying an EA product since the SW Battlefront game, and yep, should have saved my money. EA hopefully now will get rid of the horrible testing now that they are privately owned, maybe they will care more about releasing a stable product, especially for consoles.
And overheating is not a good reason. Today it happened twice after I turned the console on for 5 minutes. Some of the maps are really bad and I think cause the crashing. Going to check those off my available. This is an increasing problem and I think its server related and could be a network issue. It is not a hardware issue.
yep crashed three times in less than an hour. Done until theres a fix. Its obviously a server issue. Why would there be a game that's populated with bots on the weekend?
Has anything changed for u?
UPDATE... After a decent week (having 3 days off during the day) it seemed like only certain maps were a problem. Well that's not true. Last night booted twice in a 3 hour session( not bad). Today? Booted over 10 times since 6am. Most games have had lots of bots. Fiddled with my NAT settings, doesn't matter. Guess we are all alpha testers for their servers at this point, I can't imagine what the other issues could possibly be.
