Crashing to Desktop
I experience random crashing in both single-player and multi-player. There is no error message, the game simply closes. However, it appears that crash dump files are generated; I can provide them o...

Game: Star Wars Battlefront 2 (Trial)
- PC Specs -
Processor: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-1620 v2 @ 3.70GHz
Video Card: Quadro K4000
RAM: 16 GB
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 Professional Edition Service Pack 1 (build 7601), 64-bit
Crash: While playing Multiplayer Online or Multiplayer Arcade computer monitor goes black and computer restarts
Can anyone help here?
I'm having the exact same issue. I load up the game and a few minutes later my screen goes black and my computer shuts down all the while playing a broken/distorted buzzing noise. My specs match the recommended specs for the game, so I don't understand why it causes my computer to do this. The longest I've been able to play before the forced computer shutdown is 8 minutes and 32 seconds. It's driving me insane because I haven't even been able to complete one full round before the game crashes my computer, which means it's impossible for me to progress in the game whatsoever!
same here....i thought it was my computer, which it may be. It seems most people having this issue have older GPU hardware. I only have a gtx 780 so it is really hot and 99% usage during gameplay at a smooth framerate tho
I have exacly the same problem, but I got the shut downs even in the loading screen of the game, not even in the game yet, just in the starting menu where the game turns over 1800fps+ while I have all the system limited to 144fps but the game just don't follow orders from my GPU software.

I think the problem comes from the fps regulation inside the game, because when the game is under 400fps all works ok but when it goes over 1000fps just shut down and this game on the loadings goes over 1800fps and that causes the system to shut down, I think this is because the GPU to get that amount of fps ask too much power over the PSU and overpasses the 850W that the PSU can offer, so you (EA/DICE) should cap the fps limit on the game to 350fps and that would solve this problem to everyone. I think 350fps is enough because right now the best monitor on the market can just offer 320Hz so you would need just that amount to work on it.Changing settings in GeForce Experience from Optimal Performance to Better Quality (to slow down frame rate) prior to launch fixed the lockups for me on an Acer Aspire V Nitro.

Cheers.
I am as well. I don't know what it is. I thought it was a lack of air flow, but I just got a better fan. You described exactly whats been happening to my game/computer. What can I do to fix it though? I'm lost. This is why Battlefront 2017 is broken. Someone needs to fix it.
This is the second attempt at trying to reach out to EA. Hopefully I actually get a response this time.
I got the game more than a week ago and I've been constantly trying to get this game to work. The issue is that whenever I launch a multiplayer game it just crashes instantly with no error message or anything. Sometimes it'll give me a few seconds of freezing. If I'm lucky, I get like 5 seconds of gameplay... (yaaay....). I have never in my years of gaming had a game that just simply doesn't work at all after more than a week. At most, a game might have difficulties for a day, until I find a solution. Star Wars Battlefront 2 has been one of the worst gaming experiences of my life since my week has been ruined because I spent money on something that simply doesn't work at all and I have hopelessly been trying to get it to work.
This is unacceptable, EA. And don't give that nonsense that my computer is at fault, since literally every other game (Including Battlefield 1) works perfectly.

Same thing. Started it for the first time in months, immediate crash on main menu screen.
