Crashes @ New Sobek 100% of the Time, On All 5000 Series GPUs
This is ongoing for >3 Months. Before you ask, I did my due diligence with my PC (5700 XT, specifically)
- My AMD GPU drivers are up to date
- Chipset is up to date
- Windows 11 up to date (including windows 11 preview update, installed March 1, 2026)
- Verified game files
- Reinstalled entire game
- Report this bug to AMD every single time it crashes, including image (below) and links to reddit posts (also below)
- Various hardware tests
Below are 2 different reddit posts in 2 different Reddit subs where other 5000 series (5700XT etc) users have said they have the same issue, same map, same location. These 2 reddit posts total 24,000+ views, 100+ upvotes, and 36 comments.

It has to be in a REAL (official) match for the crash (not portal): But I have only tested it in 5 official modes that I know of: Conquest, Breakthrough, Escalation, TDM, Casual Breakthrough)
3 months I've been avoiding this map, and this area of this map, and reporting bugs to AMD, to reddit, to EA (This is my 3rd time reporting this in these official forums but I'll spare the links) and my research pointed me back to EA.
Don't let my tone above mislead you - I love this game. It bums us out when the budget is so tight that it doesn't love us back. I've been BF6's biggest cheerleader on r/LowSodiumBattlefield and even sprung for S2 Pro (regretting it). Stickers and charms don't replace bug fixes. Lesson learned. I hope to see you on the Battlefield soon - but... I guess not New Sobek City. o7
