Battlefield 6 freezes the entire Windows system
Hello Battlefield Support, Battlefield 6 repeatedly causes a severe full-system freeze on my MSI Vector 16 HX AI A2XWIG. This is not a normal crash to desktop: the game first drops to only a few (2-6) FPS, then the entire Windows interface becomes unresponsive. The computer may remain in this state for several minutes before recovering, or it has to be restarted. System configuration: Laptop: MSI Vector 16 HX AI A2XWIG CPU: Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop GPU, 16 GB Operating system: Windows 11 NVIDIA Game Ready Driver: 621.01 WHQL BIOS: E15M3IMS.118 Platform: Steam Graphics settings: Overkill preset (Any) Resolution: 2560 × 1440 Frame Generation: Off Ray Tracing: Off Incident: The problem occurs only in Battlefield 6. I have not observed the same behavior in other demanding games. HWiNFO evidence from the Battlefield 6 session (LOG1.CSV): Immediately before the freeze, at 21:57:06, the GPU was running at approximately 2377 MHz and consuming 146 W. At 21:57:10, the GPU clock suddenly dropped to approximately 180 MHz and power fell to 35.7 W. HWiNFO then stopped recording normally for 108.4 seconds. This was followed by additional logging gaps of approximately 71.1 and 62.6 seconds, confirming that the entire Windows system was unresponsive rather than only the game. The PCIe Recovery Count increased from 188 before the freeze to 191 during the incident. Maximum recorded temperatures were: CPU: 104°C GPU: 87.6°C GPU hotspot: 92.7°C GPU memory: 87°C Comparison test: I tested the latest Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 (Or Any Other game) using the same 2560 × 1440 resolution, Ultra graphics preset, Frame Generation disabled and Ray Tracing disabled (LOG2.CSV). Call of Duty remained completely stable for more than 16 minutes (Several Hours) despite placing an equal or greater load on the laptop: Average GPU load: approximately 95% Peak GPU power: approximately 197 W Maximum GPU temperature: 87.8°C Maximum CPU temperature: 104°C Maximum HWiNFO logging interval: approximately 1.25 seconds PCIe Recovery Count remained unchanged throughout the test Battlefield 6 therefore freezes even though the comparison game remains stable at practically identical temperatures and higher GPU load and peak power. This makes a general thermal or power limitation less likely. The sudden loss of GPU clock and power, long system-wide logging interruptions, and increase in the PCIe Recovery Count suggest a possible Battlefield 6/Frostbite/DirectX 12 interaction with the NVIDIA driver, leading to a GPU timeout or recovery event. Windows also recorded a LiveKernelEvent 141 on the same day, although I cannot confirm that the available entry corresponds to the exact 21:57 incident. I did not capture a normal Battlefield 6 APPCRASH or AppHang entry because Windows itself became unresponsive. Please escalate this as a full-system GPU hang rather than a standard application crash. Thank you.
Multiplayer Match Does Not End
Multiplayer Bug Description: A game-breaking bug occurs during multiplayer matches, preventing the round from ever reaching its conclusion. Despite the match timer running out or significant time passing, the ticket count does not decrease. Player kills and capturing objectives have no impact on the ticket count or match progression. This issue occurs in the standard Multiplayer mode, not in Battlefield Portal. Please investigate this issue, as it significantly affects the functionality and stability of the multiplayer experience.
Kicked due to inactivity redsec
I was sitting in the chopper, as a premade group, meaning we were four who had queued together in ranked redsec. I was browsing the wepons and attatchments and when the match then is about to start I got kicked due to inactivity. That makes perfect sense (SARCASM). Not sure if I lost any points, I at least didnt get matchmaking time penalty. Hope this will get looked into and any potential point lost gets reimbursed or restored. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
gun jammed
why is it when i shoot at certain players my gun fires 1 bullet and stops, or during sustained fire it'll stop firing halfway through the mag? i've tested it on all of the other modes and it hasn't happened once. it ONLY happens in the battle royale modes. i've built up a reflex of flicking my reticle off target and back on because it's the only thing that fixes the issue. also, it only happens in close range fights(10meteres or less) unless i'm using a sniper rifles. with sniper rifles it fires normally but will not zoom in if my reticle is on the players model. i have to again flick my reticle away from the player model and then zoom in and flick back on, so i don't use snipers anymore. from everything i've learned and experienced, it's tied to the reticle being on the player model and the only thing to reset it is to move your reticle off of the player model and back on. yes i have reinstalled and multiple times now have reset my settings because that is the only info i've been able to find. no i'm not forgetting to reload and no i'm not accidentally putting the rifle into semi. there's a reload bug too. it might look reloaded, you didn't swap and the animation played all the way through, but it isn't.
BF6 PS5 Online Multiplayer Fails to Load
I've been unable to load any online multiplayer games on BF6 from my PS5. I click to join a game (i.e. breakthrough), the screen goes blank then the BF6 loading screen pops up and returns to the menu without an error message. I have also completed the following trouble shooting: Disabled crossplay Deleted then reinstalled the whole game and add ons. Deleted my local PS5 cache from safe mode Changed my automatic DNS to manual 8.8.8.8 etc Checked for updates Restored my licences Turned the router on and off LOL Followed all of the instructions from EA support. They have logged a ticket as their solutions did not help and they acknowledged this is a bug. The only thing I have found that worked for 1 day was to unlink and relink my ea account from my PS5. The next day, once again, Im unable to play online. There is a 1 year cooldown on unlinking and relinking your ea account to PlayStation and support would not allow me to do it again. FC26 works online just fine. This only seems to effect BF6. I can play BF6 offline though I just cba for campaign. Has anyone else encounter this issue and have a solution?Battlefield keeps crashing randomly
Battlefield 6 keeps crashing in both multiplayer and redsec, and even the main menu crashes when I'm doing nothing. I've verified the files on steam and reinstalled the anticheat and it still keeps crashing ever since season 5, my pc is up to date on its windows and graphics drivers, it just crashes after losing or wining a game and sitting in the loadout menu, it twice now has crashed while in a redsec match. There isn't a error code, it turns off like I press alt f4, no warning just one second I'm in the game the next second I'm in the steam library, please fix battlefield 6.
