AntiCheatWard check my last 2 DMs, I managed to find a way to prevent the hard freeze and get some event logs. I also updated the post with the info I found.
EA Anticheat TeamI seem to have lost the reply button on the DMs, apologies. I reported that issue to the forum team.
Anyways, the issue you're reporting with the GPU crash is unrelated to the anti-cheat. This is a known issue with the latest AMD drivers which EA has reported to AMD directly.
You can see in other forums where users are reporting this: https://forums.ea.com/discussions/battlefield-2042-technical-issues-en/game-crash-issue-with-amd-adrenaline-25-5-1-drivers-on-battlefield-2042/12168627
The game crash you reported in kernel32 is also unrelated to the anti-cheat, this is a game crash when creating a thread. We'll share that with the studio.
I still believe there's a real issue you're reporting, and we'll look at your latest telemetry after you added the TdrLevel to your registry settings.
Thanks for the reply. It seems there is a comment on that thread that suggests the crash happens due to AMD Adrenalin clocking the GPU to high frequencies and a viable temporary solution would be limiting the GPU freq to 2300-2400 Mhz or simply downgrading to AMD Adrenalin 25.3.1.
In my case TdrLevel was already present and set to 0 (which basically means if the GPU crashes it will freeze/BSOD , which was probably the cause for the PC crashing rather than it being set on 3 - the position where it will try to recover and if it fails it will rather give a crash message then freezing, this should be default position, but to be sure adding TdrLevel and setting to 3 should make sure it is not TdrLevel's fault here)
I will try playing soon on 2300-2400 Mhz on my current AMD drivers and see if that fixes the issue. Doesn't solve it since it shouldn't crash and this needs to get fixed but perhaps it will temporarily fix the issue on these drivers.
UPDATE: Tried downclocking, same result. Will try reverting to 25.3.1.
UPDATE 2: 25.3.1 doesn't work either. Literally same errors. Which is very weird since everyone is reporting 25.3.1 is fixing their issue. It's not fixing mine. KERNELBASE.dll keeps on crashing bf1.
UPDATE 3: AntiCheatWard I searched on the internet, it seems it's a huge problem with Frostbite engines and there is no universal fix, literally dozens/hundreds of "fixes" across the internet and none of them seem to work by how users report. Very few of them seem to have luck and one of the hundreds of fixes to actually work. I doubt it is 25.5.1 problem since I downgraded to the version that everyone is saying it's stable in that thread and I have the absolute same crash happening. Keep in mind I did not have this issue before and I haven't changed anything in my PC. So it's either something that was added/changed to Battlefield or a software issue, like drivers. But I downgraded to a "reported" stable version of AMD drivers and no luck. Perhaps try to go even older drivers? idk man
