The game is still running, I can hear the music, but I can't get it to stay open on my screen for the life of me. Every time I click on the icon on the taskbar to bring it back up it just goes right back to desktop. I know xbox is crashing but I can't find anything about PC issues. I'm trying to stream it tomorrow and I literally can't play. I bought through Origin.
Try:
- Disabling the Origin in game overlay
- Running the game in windowed (borderless) if you normally run it fullscreen or vice versa.
- Ensure you are running the most current stable build of your video drivers and/or windows.
Also, check to see if there are any programs or windows settings that are checking for updates. This can potentially yank you out of a game. Windows 10 updates do it to me all the time if I don't go in regularly to update.
Do you use Origin or EA app?
If Origin, did you disabled "Origin in Game"?
Did you tried to disabled other background applications?
I disabled origin in game and i closed all og my backround apps excluding origin and steam. It still keeps bugging.
Finally got it to work I updated every little thing I could I found a windows update trough a secondary app and now it works. I guess you need to update your windows drivers. Never did this before. I played 150 hours before with no problem.
