Re: Game freezes/crashes when opening Squad Battles
from windows event viewer, the crashes were because:
EAAntiCheatService
The game fc26.exe exited unexpectedly, exit code: 0xC0000409
I have been playing FC26 since its pre-release and it worked well on my PC. Starting this week, it crashes so many times while I'm in the middle of a match or even when I'm simply browsing objectives or market. The crashes have no pop-up error warning windows at all and exit directly to desktop. For those in-game crashes, the match runs well for around 5 mins and then it freezes for 2 sec and crashes to desktop. It is frustrating that no matter in squad battle or division rivals, you get a 0-3 for accidental crashes and of course arrogant EA offers 0 compensation. I received more than 10 loses because of this and I cannot even complete some simple objectives because I might play for 2 hrs without being able to finish a single match.
Things I've done:
I tried to set the in game frame rate to the same as my monitor's frame rate, still crashes
I tried to lower the quality from 4k to 2k to 1k and it still crashes.
I have limited the frame rate to no more than 120fps, still crashes
I have also used steam to verify the game and fix if any game file is missing or broken
I have also did the windows security - core integrity on/off.
Both my GPU driver and operating system (win 10) has been updated to latest version. In fact there were no published update in the past week so the drivers and systems remains the same. Just all of a sudden this week, FC26 begins to crash all the time.
Any comment with solution or similar issues would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
