BF6 Shaders Crash at Start

Hello,

I have been playing since the game was released (as well as the beta) without encountering any bugs.

Since the RedSec update was released, when I launch BF6, it crashes during shader compilation.

The sound and image stutter for 5-10 minutes until it crashes.

What I've tried: 

  •  Checking my drivers (everything is OK)
  • -Checking the game files on Steam (done twice)
  • -Reinstalling the game

NOTHING works.

I need your help, please!

I ran DxDiag if needed.

    Hi there kind support person!

    Had no issues with this until the Redsec/Season 1 update today. My game loads into the start screen but when I click start and begin the shader compilation process, my CPU usage spikes and slows the background video playback to a crawl while updating the progress bar very slowly until eventually it crashes my PC and then very slowly returns control back to me on the desktop. Search for "compilation" in the recent posts on the Battlefield subreddit and you'll see others are affected by this issue as well. Specs are below. Need a resolution for this, thanks!

    Processor    AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12-Core Processor 4.28 GHz

    GPU AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT

    Game installed on a Samsung SSD 990 PRO 4TB

    RAM    16.0 GB

    Windows 11

    Hello,

    I have the same issue with the difference that the game closes rather quickly instead of staying frozen : about 30s after being stuck on 39.06%, the game closes.

    I also had no major issue in beta or since release (played just fine a few days ago, before the patch).

    DxDiag given for comparison

  • Im having issues ever since the recent updates my shaders load to 56.55% then throws me back to my desktop saying its an issues on their end and to try again in a little while, ive tried again after 15 hours for my shaders to shoot instantly to 56.55% and throws me vck to desktop this time without the error. ive repaired the files and still no luck so i decided to unistall the game just in case the files have corrupted and it wont unistall via the EA app nor can io deleted it from my settings, can anyone give me any advice why this is happening?

    The exact same here as well, same number of 39.06%. I've seen somewhere that it may be tied to AMD graphics card. I am running a 5700XT.

  • im getting to 56.55% before it closes to desktop, i downloaded redsec on steam to have the same issue, 3 files where corruted tried to unitall the game and not having no luck via the EA app nor via my computer

    I am not, so the problem might not be related to the brand of GPU :/

    ive had the same issue since the recent updates via the EA app and even steam, i got 3 corrupted files, EA app wont allow me to unistall the game and nor can i unistall it via my actual computer. dosnt matter how many times i repair the files still get the same results. i get an error message saying its an issue on their end and to try again in a little while, i debating getting a refund tbh
