Have been running a couple of rounds now and it doesn't crash anymore. I am using Asus GPU Tweak 2 with RTX 2080ti. I did activate the silent profile which downclocked my GPU. I am still getting the same performance as with the scanner profile.
So if you are running this type of tool, test to underclock your GPU.

a first quick test seems to support the hypothesis - underclocking (!) the 2080 Ti by approx. 10% seems to help (but I haven't played enough to be certain)
My solution which solved the in-game crashes for longer periods of time, although not completely:
- installed the latest NVIDIA driver 417.35 which just came out yesterday - download link
- installed the latest game patch which also came out yesterday (didn't solve the problem by itself)
- installed MS WIndows 10 1809 patch (didn't solve the problem by itself)
What I tried without lasting success, although it might help others in eliminating their problems:
- set CPU and GPU to normal (not overclocked) settings (tools vary depending on manufacturer / architecture)
- update the mainboard BIOS to the latest version
- update the OS to the latest version (in my case, this meant getting the 1809 update for Win10 although it is not rolled out normally at the moment)
- check whether the system has temperature or RAM usage issues when gaming, i.e. with CPUID HWMonitor (it has a nifty Max / Min value view)
- check for conflicts between drivers (i.e. in Windows Logs)
- clean up your boot process (remove unnecessary tools and gadgets from being started automatically) as described here
- try running Origin with admin permissions
- try disabling "Origin in-game" for the game
- try re-installing all VC components as described here
- try deleting "C:\Users\[UserName]\Documents\Battlefield V\twinkle\"
- try using the MS .NET Framework repair tool
- try disabling G-SYNC (if you are using both an NVIDIA card and a g-sync-ready display)
- try choosing DX11 vs. DX12 in the in-game graphics settings
- try running your CPU and/or GPU at lowered (underclocked) settings (tools vary depending on manufacturer / architecture)
And to help others diagnose your problem, be prepared to give them
- the DxDiag output
- the tasklist (i.e. do a "tasklist -v > C:\tasklist.txt" in a command prompt with admin permissions)
- the game crash dumps from ""%LOCALAPPDATA%\CrashDumps"
I want to thank all the ppl who tried to help me to solve the problem, especially MADrag0n, for your patience and your valuable input.
@Stingray_DE glad to hear it! )
But:
- ur link to the driver is broken
- in this driver version I dont see any critical fixes for BFV...

The link works for me (on Firefox, IE, Chrome, both on Win 10 and android devices)...
I don't care whether the driver update was supposed to fix any BF V specific problems, as long as it does 🙂
... and, without any changes to the system (as far as I know - nothing I did) I'm back to having the game crash to desktop... although it seems to happen less when audio is off, which somehow is not really a solution 🙂
