Just got the game on steam. It loads up, then goes into the settings selection menu. Within a few seconds, it freezes and crashes. I tried speeding through the settings, reducing graphics from Ultra to High, same thing. Graphics card (NVIDIA 4090) and Windows is already updated.
For Nvidia users: rolling back to the game ready driver from August (560.94) has worked for me and others. Especially the Removed or Hung Graphics card directX crash. Good luck.
Game keeps crashing in character creator for me. Sometimes as soon as I open it, other times as soon as I click on an option to start adjusting. Drivers are up to date and, deleted shader_cache folder, restarted pc etc. Still keeps consistently happening.
Do we have any news on that? EA_Illium
The game is unplayable for so many, and the solutions (including a BIOS update, which I've *never* seen a game require) are temporary at best and it keeps going back to crashing. Even information that the devs are aware of and working on it would be appreciated.
This one fixed mine... well, I can somewhat play the game on the lowest graphics - though, my pc should be able to run on max. It seems like we need another driver update. The newest update skrewed up everything.
Here is the solution to your problem, my friend.
The problem seems to be related to the Nvidia driver. I tested everything. This is how I solved it. Good luck.
Texture Issues on Ultra Settings Despite High-End Hardware🤮🤮💩 | EA Forums - 5008383
But many of the people on this post, like myself, have an AMD gpu. So your fix doesn't necessarily apply. And we're not having texture issues, we've having it use too much of our gpu and then crashing our entire PC.
Unfortunately, the patched released today on 11/7 still did not solve the problem. My game still crashes spontaneously. Sometimes in 10 minutes, sometimes in 1 minute. I'm refunding this game. Very disappointed with the lack of engagement from staff and then a 'bug fix' that hasn't succeeded. Maybe if there was engagement, they would know what to fix
Yeah had the same crashes before the patch, but now i cant launch the game at all anymore, with or without deleting shader cache..
The game still crashes within 5 minutes after opening the game
