Madden 22 Freezing Error (Steam-PC)
Over Christmas I bought Madden 22 for PC through Steam. The game always begins running with no issues, then once I get into Ultimate Team or another mode the game completely freezes. I'm pretty sure...

Its so god damn sad how madden 21 works completely fine without freezing. But this game which nothing on the new gen was added it and its the same engine has this issue and they refuse to fix it. They keep asking for "Dx logs" and asking if u updated but they know its not going to work. How do they expect anyone to buy 23 when half a year in they refuse to fix this one.
Recently been able to launch the game, and managed to get fewer freezes running as Admininstrator. Still get freezes though, even with in game overlay on EA App and Steam turned off.

Sometimes I can play for 30 mins+, but mostly it just freezes either in game, or loading into one. Administrator helped a little, but game is pretty unplayable. Here is a dxdiag.
Using -force -dx11 I was able to play 3 whole games in FotF before a freeze, so this appears to be slightly better, but doesn't resolve this issue.
To confirm, i've been trying the Challenges on Ultimate Team, but the first challenge track has a full game at the end of each chapter.
After about 10 attempts, I have managed to complete 4 games. Freezes are seemingly random in game i.e. before choosing a play, or during a review or after kicking a PAT or something.
Sometimes Madden freezes loading into a game...very frustrating.
