Sorry. Just realized that you can attach files to the posts.
Here is my DXDIAG file
So I played on the single player campaign for about half an hour with the graphics settings on auto. Everything ran smoothly although I would have expected a few more frames from my PC on mostly medium settings. I averaged out in between 35-45. Then i switched to multiplayer. Played in one server a little but was really laggy so quit to join another. I got into that server only for it to crash with a different DirectX message about 5 minutes later. I really have no clue whats causing it. Does anyone else have any insight to this? It appears to be only on the multiplayer games it happens.

Thanks, from a quick skim of your dxdiag I didn't spot any red flags.
2 starter steps would be to run a repair and clean reinstall your graphics card drivers.
To repair, right-click the game panel in Origin and choose the appropriate option.
As for a driver reinstall you can try running the driver package again, and choose custom > Clean install.
Some others also recommend using DDU -a 3rd party driver remover- and installing from scratch.I've done all of this and my trial is crashing on startup. I was able to play about 3 hours without issue.

@AldermachXI If you swap to Direct X 11 in the game's menu perhaps that'll help.
If this has no effect did anything change on your system since you could play before?
You should find the menu option by starting at the title screen to to More >Options > Video > Advanced Options and there should be a toggle if you have DX12 available.

Thanks, Ragnarok. It's definitely something that might help.
For anyone new to the thread, deleting this folder means that the game will create a new default settings file, which can help if there's a problem with the original.
