Just ran into this problem today after everything working just fine after launch. The only thing that changed was that I updated to the latest nVidia drivers (released on 11/26/19). I would basically be able to launch the game, but as soon as I got to the mail title screen with menu options the video would start flickering for maybe about 5-10 seconds and then the signal between my card and monitor would be lost and the monitor would start cycling through inputs until finally giving up.
I changed the following which seems to have fixed it. I had to change the settings in the nVidia experience application, but here's what I changed:
Old value: 2560x1080
New value: 3440x1440 (this is my native resolution)
Old value: Full Screen
New value: Full-Screen Borderless
I think the game had problems switching to full screen and that's what caused the issue, but not 100% sure. So, might or might not fix other issues but thought I would share what worked for me.

Have you had any issues since you have changed this? I am running a 4790k and 2080ti and have switched a few settings around like you have but still get intermittent crashing with the D3D error. Thanks!

I get this exact same crash/error report. I'll play for hours and nothing seems to be stuttering or having issues. The game will run fine for a while, but suddenly it crashes. No sudden GPU spikes. My GPU barely gets a workout through this game. Although CPU optimization in this title is garbage and that constantly varies from 20-90% depending on what's happening in the game so there's no telling if the issue is there, but this is the only game on my system that does that. Additionally, I've monitored my temps and everything stays in the green. Both my GPU and CPU are water cooled and nothing effects their temperatures, so it's not an overheating issue. I've updated my Drivers and even did a clean install of those to try to fix the issue with no luck. EA and Respawn need to fix this and I wouldn't be surprised if this is a DRM glitch causing the problem.
Troubleshooting: Removed drivers, installed clean drivers, uninstalled new drivers, installed clean old version of drivers, "repaired" game (verified game files), uninstalled/reinstalled game, ran Windows update, and even ran game on low/medium/high/epic settings at 1920 x 1080, 2560 x 1440, and 3840 x 2160. Finally decided to test another game. Played Gears 5 for 10 hours (total) in campaign and online with highest settings at 3840 x 2160. CPU was at 30% (peak usage) and my GPU hit 95% (peak usage). Same engine, no crashes.

I was tinkering with some settings the other day and turned on debug mode in my Nvidia settings (turns off the factory overclock) and things have been running fine ever since with no crashes. The crashing only started happening after the driver update that came through just before Thanksgiving. So something with the game does not seem to be playing nice with the factory overclock on the gpu. Hopefully that helps you as well!

Just saw a new update for the game but in the patch notes there was no mention of any fixes for any major bugs such as this. Any updates for us EA??? I’d really love to get back to playing this game

Please fix the bug...EA

I suspect this has something to do with Unreal Engine 4. I’ve done further research and found that many people have this issue with any game running this engine. I recently purchased Mordhau and although the crashes aren’t as frequent it still happens.
