Hey Everyone,
I wanted to check if anyone is still seeing crashing at launch after updating their BIOS. If so, be sure to try the steps on our post: Dragon Age The Veilguard - Technical Assistance & Bug Reports | EA Forums - 4985821
We can also try a few workarounds depending on exactly what is happening.
- Unable to continue past "Press Start To Play" - Try making changes to Windows Defender, steps here.
- Crashing during Shader Compilation - Check for BIOS, Windows, and Graphics Driver updates.
- Inputs not registering in Character Creator or when playing, Try disabling any third-party software (like Razer Synapse) and check if this continues. If this continues, try using a different peripheral.
After going through the above troubleshooting and workaround. If you continue crashing at launch or when trying to start a new game, please let us know the following.
- EA ID (PSN ID/Gamertag):
- Which platform or client are you on?
- Are you getting an error message?
- If possible, share a Screenshot or Clip...
- If on PC, please share a DxDiag file and an EA app Error ID Number
We can use this information, to help make the team aware of the issue and to further investigate.
Cheers!
I'd just like to put this out there: Having to update our devices simply to get the game started is disappointing. I'm grateful I spend the money for advanced support for my PC to be able to get help for this without messing up my computer.
