EA Overlay causes crash in Battlefield 1 on Volga River and other maps, in DX12
I found that on Volga River, while BF1 is in DX12 mode, it is easy to reproduce a "DXGI ERROR DEVICE HUNG" crash when the EA Overlay is enabled. This crash can happen on other maps as well, but less predictable.
And of course, this is compounded by the bug that the overlay KEEPS RE-ENABLING (come on EA)
Not sure if this is only with AMD cards or also Nvidia
My system:
Ryzen 5600x
RX 6800xt
32GB RAM
Windows 11
Before anybody says "switch to DX11", DX11 actually performs a lot worse than DX12. DX11 is slower overall, and has stuttering issues that are unresolvable. DX12's stuttering, in contrast, quickly goes away after shaders are compiled by playing each map once
