The game just froze again in the middle of game we were winning. This isn't a problem with my system or drivers. This problem is going to require a patch from EA/Dice. Just like all previous releases of BF have needed. How many times must I run repair, or uninstall and then reinstall the game??? EA/Dice: JUST FIX IT.
Update: The game continuously freezes or crashes back to the desktop. I have had to repair and or uninstall and reinstall the game to get it to be playable. I played both the alpha and the beta and didn't have this much trouble with playing. EA needs to issue a patch to fix what appears to be memory leakage which causes the game to crash. I have attached the Windows error message regarding what is going on with these crashes and freezes.
DICE TeamHey @MoonUtonight, looking at Dxdiag, your GPU drivers are out of date, I recommend that you download the new ones and see if that works after for you. 🙂
Link to drivers:
Let me know how that works out for you.

I did have the AMD Adrenaline drivers (18.11.1). But part of the possible solutions to having BFV crash back to the desktop was to uninstall drivers and revert back to basic drivers. Which is one of the suggestions I followed from EA_Blueberry. I am now using the Microsoft AMD driver. Along with rolling back to DX11, disabling the Origin overlay, and disabling the "future frame" setting, I have only experienced being dumped back to the desktop a couple of times. Compared to having it occur multiple times a day. So, I will stick with what works for now. That DxDiag was done awhile ago. But, thanks for the suggestion. In time I will try the latest drivers from AMD. But, I would like to see EA patch the game so DX12 can be used instead of DX11.
A update: I have still been fiddling and diddling with the settings as well as GPU drivers on my main gaming PC. I still have been getting dumped back to the desktop occasionally. I still have DX12 disabled on that system. As well as future frame rendering. And have graphics quality set to high rather than ultra. I did re-install the AMD Adrenaline driver package. It seems that as soon as I did that, the game would dump back to the desktop more frequently. So, I used DDU to completely wipe out all AMD related directories, as well as Registry entries. After re-boot, I updated the plain jane graphics driver up to Microsoft's AMD driver. I suspect that there are a couple of issues going on with that system. It could be the AMD RXVega series driver that causes BFV.exe to crash. Although, I would think I would get some sort of Windows 10 graphics error message if that were the case. I have an older AMD based system with a "Piledriver" CPU and a AMD R9390x GPU. Also running Windows 10 Pro with the latest October update. I had not installed BFV on this system yet. So, i did so last night as well as updated the installed AMD Adrenaline driver up to the latest version. I do have DX12 enabled. But not future frame rendering and am running at high quality graphics. As this card is bit old and cannot play the game at a reasonable frame rate if all the setting are set to the ultra settings. I have only played a few hours with this system, but did not experience any issues. So, this leads me to think that there may be some kind of issue with the different AMD GPU and the GPU driver. I will continue to mess with it and report my findings here.
