Freezing in Battlefront Multiplayer
Early into multiplayer game modes the game freezes, usually just after my first kill. Single player modes work fine and it is not a hardware issus

Community Admin@THE_FAT_MOOSE89 What system are you on? It sounds like PC, can you link your dxdiag? Have you been able to play in the past or has it always acted like this for you?
When it does freeze does the game lock up or "just" stall for a while? If it locks up do you get an error message?
If you are on PC can you try a repair? Right-click the game panel to get the repair option.

Yes I'm on pc. I tried the repair as you said and I actually got to play 15 minutes of walker assault before it froze. When it freezes, the entire computer does lock up. The picture freezes, then the audio stops in layers. When it does this I can't do anything other then turn off my pc, and there is no error message. The freezing has only become a problem after the update with the new Hoth map. Freezing was rare before. I attached the diagnostic.

@THE_FAT_MOOSE89 Hmm, It's hard to tell. Your system is below the min spec, so it could be performance strain, but as you say it's been working before.
Be sure to restart your machine with a Clean Boot for one, and make sure that your airflow/cooling on your laptop is adequate. You might want to run a temperature/performance monitor as you play, something may be maxing out before the shutdown.- Approved
What exactly is below specs on my device? I really want to get back to this game so I'm open to upgrading.
