I've been facing the same issue for the past two days. I've been trying to play Division Rivals, but I just can't seem to get it to work. Initially, I thought the problem was with my PC. However, I was able to play Overwatch 2 on Ultra settings with over 100 fps without any issues, so it wasn't a hardware problem.
Then, I suspected that the game itself might be the issue. I even went as far as reinstalling it from Steam, but the problem persisted. Frustrated, I decided to monitor my PC's performance using Task Manager on my second monitor while running the game. I started a 5-minute kickoff game, and within the first minute, I noticed my antivirus suddenly spiking from using 1GB of RAM to 20GB, as indicated in the screenshot I took
As soon as it hit 20GB, my PC froze, and I had to force a reset from the tower. I'm hoping that by sharing my experience, others who are encountering the same problem can chime in, and maybe together, we can bring attention to this issue so that EA can address it.
You experience is the same as mine.
I contacted support multiple times with no solution, and just to prevent people from wasting time, this is all that I did since the issue started
Reinstalled anticheat
Removed anticheat, reinstalled a brand new version downloaded from the page
reinstalled fc24
reinstalled ea app
reinstalled epic games (where I run the game from)
Changed the priority of the process with powershell as manual does not work
deleted all reg entries, fresh installed all of the above
reinstalled windows
Re-installed all my video card drivers
Removed my norton antivirues
Reinstalled norton AV
add eafc and anticheat to the exception list from both the firewall and antivirus
Reinstalled windows
Changed the secure boot option in my bios
deleted cache
Reduced all configurations in FC24 to low
Removed Nvdia experience
Removed Nvidia Broadcast
Clean up my registry from bad entries
Changed the disk where EA FC 24 is running from
If you are facing the same thing as me, you can try all those actions, but none have worked for me.
I cannot play Rivals, Champions, or Draft
I can play squad battles because I can pause when the game freezes, and resume it when performance seems better
