It looks like my last reply was marked as spam and removed. It was a legit report of a reproduction of the bug and the attempted steps that I used to try to remedy it. (I hope the mods are not removing legitimate posts)
Tried the following things as recommended by the mod to try to fix it (all failed)...
Win 8.1 x64 / Intel 4820k / EVGA 980 TI Classified / Corsair 16gb RAM
1. Swapped memory modules
2. Remove XMP and tried auto for memory / Also downclocked memory timings and speed and increased voltages
3. Downclocked video card and CPU
4. Disabled all overlays
5. Uninstall/reinstall various driver versions
6. Confirmed stability of system on various other Frostbite games (BF3/BF4/Battlefront 1 and 2)... no problems there but will crash on BF V within 1-15 mins. Also did 2 hours of Uniengine Superposition bench so the video card is stable.
7. Doubled Virtual Page file memory
8. Repaired game through Origin
9. Re-thermal paste Video Card
10. Tried various in game "sound" settings from Stereo to Surround since some folks said this fixes it.
11. Updated BIOS / Full Windows Updates
Same Exception code: 0xc0000005 each time the game crashes to desktop with "BFV has stopped responding" so I'm pretty confident it's a game or driver issue. Error below...

If this isn't fixed by the Dec 3rd patch, folks in the thread deserve a refund path as we've purchased a product that does not work. I've spent more than 15 hours trying to fix this problem and haven't even gotten much play time in due to the constant crashes. It shouldn't take this much effort to get the game functional.
