Recent patch broke my game.
I have been off BF4 for about a week now due to finals and stuff.
I turn my game on to play with my friends, and the game crashes 1-2 minutes after entering the deploy screen. Because the crash consistently happened after a few minutes, I figured it was a permissions issue so I gave origin and BF4.exe admin permissions. This seemed to fix the problem, but my game just crashed again, about 15 minutes in.
I'm pretty sick of this. Its been how long since release? I like this game, but I can never finish a match and it kills my interest to play. As I type this I can hear the anquished cries of my friends begging for stinger support. "Help us!" they say. "No," I respond, "my **bleep** crashes every two minutes." My game was stable and running fine, but after this patch it crashes constantly. I can't even tell you what patch it was, as whoever is responsible for posting patches has made it such that typing "battlefield 4 patch notes/lists" does not give me a thread with patch notes.
Is anyone else having crashing issues related to the recent patches, and does anyone have a fix?
I have not tried turning my graphics to medium or low, as my current settings (high) ran the game just fine. Any problem with stability relating to graphics happened after the patch, I submit.
*edit
Just tried to play again, crashed 2 minutes in. So the one time I got to play 15 minutes was an odd one out. I just turned the game off, at least if it crashed after 15 minutes I could still get some game time in, but as it stands now I spend more time loading the game up that I get to play it.

*note
I had to truncate some of the dxdiag because of a character limit. Never had that problem before. Huh.
