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...

I have only had the game for a couple days now but the game just doesn't seem to run right. At random moments in the game, more noticeably in space battles, the game will freeze for a brief second and then kick me back to my desktop. I don't get any kind of messages when this happens so i have no idea what is going on. I've tried varying levels of detail qualities and resolution levels and then seems to make no difference. All my drivers are up to date. The only thing i can think of that might cause some kind of issue is that Origins is installed on a 120 GB SSD and the game is installed on a 1 TB HDD but i highly doubt that's the problem. I've already tried ruining both programs as an admin with no luck and tired clearing the program and app-data files with no luck either. i have monitored the utilization of my hardware and while there is a high CPU and GPU load depending on the settings the temps stay reasonable the whole time and i never get close to using up all my ram and vram. I'm just really at a loss because when the game crashes i get no error codes or prompts to what might of happened

EA Staff (Retired)Hey @Nate55B
That sounds like a weird issue, especially that SWB2 nor Origin don't show any error messages 🤔
My suggestion would be to check your HDD for any errors. Right click the disc and choose properties. First use Check and then Optimise.
If it doesn't help, you can also delete those files from STAR WARS Battlefront II folder in Origin Games folder:
Remember to use Origin's repair option before launching the game again.

Same here. After today's update game freezes and crashes to desktop. Happens on battle report screen or after player's death on unit coosing screen. I play for 4 montjs now, and nothing happened till today and I had 6-7 crashes during 3 hour random gameplay. So maybe it is a bug????

Hey @UmeshSkywalker
Could you try out the steps, which I listed above and let me know if they helped?
I will let our specialists know about the problem right away then 🙂
Edit: Clean boot might also be a good idea!
Thanks in advance!

- I tried all of those and none of them worked
Just installed newest nVidia drivers and deleted files, will check out soon and let you know if that helped 🙂
yep same symptons - high end PC running 1080gtx with loads of RAM - never had problems before this patch or "DLC season"
Will try the directx option and advise
i am having the same problems. Random crashes to desktop. Game sometimes just freezes. Often don't get the continue button after a match etc.
Pretty pitiful that this game has had crashing issues since launch and they continue to fail at resolving them.
changed back to DirectX 11 and working no worries again... in fact maybe just me or graphics even better...??
running Ultra settings but now with DirectX 11 instead of 12 - to fix just go into settings/ video / change there - then need to reboot or restart game cant remember... XD
2 Patches in a row where I can't even get past the title menu without a crash, i'm sure its on my end >.>
