Game crashes upon death
Bug Report: Battlefield 2042 Crash on Death Animation So earlier today I started back playing Battlefield 2042 after not playing for about a year due to the new Dead Space collab with the new Outbreak mode. However, I'm having a serious issue where every time I die, right as the death animation starts to play, the game freezes and crashes immediately with no error message. This happens in all modes. I've looked online and seen others with similar issues. Some reported that deleting the cache folder for the game helped, but it was only a temporary fix — the issue returned within 30–45 minutes. Since deleting the folder didn’t help, I decided to reinstall the game, even though it’s large. Unfortunately, the problem got slightly worse: it started freezing even faster, sometimes before the death animation even starts. I then consulted ChatGPT, which recommended analyzing the crash dump file using a program called WinDbg. I did so, and shared the analysis with ChatGPT to interpret the results. ChatGPT Response Summary: Root Cause Summary: The crash was due to an Access Violation (0xC0000005) — specifically a read from a null or invalid pointer (0x0000000000000008). Crash Details: Module: amdxc64.dll (likely part of AMD graphics drivers) Function: Boost Serialization (boost::archive::detail::iserializer::load_object_data) Crash Reason: Attempted to read from RCX + 8, but RCX was NULL (0x0), leading to a crash. Contextual Clues: Crash occurred while BF2042.exe was running. Involves amdxc64.dll — a common AMD GPU driver library. Occurred during Boost serialization and DirectX 12 GPU pipeline operations. Likely Cause: A pointer used by the AMD graphics driver during deserialization or pipeline setup was NULL, causing the game to crash. So at this point, having done nearly every troubleshooting step and even running diagnostics with the help of ChatGPT, this is the closest I’ve gotten to an explanation. Hopefully someone from the developer team can help investigate further. And yes, before anyone asks — I did try switching the game to run in DirectX 11. The same issue persists.

I’m running into a serious issue with Battlefield 2042 and my Focusrite Scarlett audio interface, and I’ve seen a few other people mention similar problems, so I’m hoping to find a solution or confirmation. Whenever I play Battlefield 2042 with my Focusrite interface connected, audio starts crackling heavily after a few minutes, then all system audio becomes delayed (grows worse with each crackle), and eventually my PC blue screens. Other games and apps work fine - this only happens with Battlefield 2042. Here’s everything I’ve attempted so far: Unplugged and replugged the interface (issue disappears when it’s disconnected) Changed buffer sizes in Focusrite Control (128 → 1024 samples) Reinstalled latest Focusrite drivers Completely uninstalled drivers and reinstalled clean Tried different sample rates (44.1 and 48 kHz across Windows and Focusrite) Disabled Exclusive Mode in Windows sound settings Used Voicemeeter / Virtual Audio Cable to reroute BF2042 audio (still crackling) Tested different USB ports and cables Ran LatencyMon → shows FocusriteUSB.sys spiking during the issue Verified the issue is ONLY with BF2042; other games and general playback are fine My system details: Focusrite model: Scarlett Solo 3rd Gen Windows version: 10 Running Battlefield 2042 via Origin It seems like a driver-level conflict between Focusrite USB drivers and Battlefield 2042 (maybe related to WDM handling or the anti-cheat system). I’ve read similar posts, so I think it’s not just my setup. Is there a known workaround for this? EA: Is this being investigated? Any help would be appreciated. If anyone else is running into this, please share your setup.Battlefield 2042 lag and low fps icon
Hi, I hope somebody can help me, I am playing BF 2042 now again since a couple of days. And I have played over 1700hrs in this game, but now its allmost impossible to play for me. My Pc is the same as when I started playing this game, so no hardware changes since. i run a pc with i7 9700KF and a RTX 2070 Super. RAM in the pc is 16Gb. Playing the game the temp of the CPU runs steady between 60 and 70 degrees celcius as does my GPU arround 60 degrees celcius. The problem starts when loading into a server which takes like forever now. Lag lag and lag, when I am in the server i don't see my gun, which will appear after I died the first time. But then the lag is not normal the sound dissapears now and then and the Low FPS sign pops up now and then. i cannot play a full round, halfway the round the game crashes and I am back to my desktop. So... I am clueless. does anyone have some advice of what to do/ change?Rush XL poor server performance
I've played a few Rush XL games that have been fine, but during most games I start to see yellow and red server performance warning icons displayed, and I get stutter, rubberbanding, etc. I don't understand why a game mode would be put into rotation that overloads the servers. It's mostly unplayable. Anyone else experiencing this?I can't look around with my mouse...
if i move my mouse nothing happens in game, it works in the menus. if i move my mouse very fast and far my character looks around like my mouse is on very high sens. I tried reinstalling the game resetting my setting turning raw input on and off nothing works. How do I fix this?CFT and TN spikes
Hey all, Firstly, I've had this issue for years and I cannot seem to resolve it. Every couple minutes during gameplay I get random CFT and TN spikes (see attached pics) which always screw me up. A second later, gameplay goes back to normal. During the spike, I see CPU and GPU utilisation dip in MSI Afterburner. My specs are: 14700k 64gb DDR5 RTX5080 (originally 3080ti) NVME SSD 750mb/s internet connection on ethernet ... Resource constraints aren't the issue. I don't have this issue in any other game. I never had issues when I first started playing the game on release. It maybe popped up a year later. What I've tried: Disabling C-states Disabling one drive sync Different USB ports for K&M Different K&M Mouse raw input vs not Closing all non-essential applications/services Reinstalling and repairing easy anti cheat Reinstalling BF2042 Cleared cache Reformatting computer - clean install everything Upgrading bios Clean boot with most windows apps disabled Disabling all overlays Deleting IGO32.dll & IGO64.dll Running as administrator Lowered graphics settings/lighting/reflex/frame rate cap/ There doesn't seem to be a way to contact EA support. I've tried asking Reddit and got no help there. Maybe someone can help me here?Input lag
There is an incredibly high level of input lag. My mouse and keyboard commands are delayed by 15 seconds. It's impossible to play the game. I haven't experienced this kind of problem with any other game. The system has 32 GB of DDR5 4800 MHz RAM, an Intel i5 12400f, and an Nvidia 4060 RTX. What is the solution? Urgent Help PleasePing troubles
Good day. For some reason, there are constant packet losses on German servers (the only ones available to me). This has been happening for the third day in a row. Tracing shows problems beyond my Internet provider and the general backbone channel. Somewhere on the way to the EA servers. Please tell me if there is anything I can do about this?
