Apex Legends Crashes Every 3-5 Matches
My Apex Legends crashes without any error messages or popups every few matches. I have a PC running Windows 11 (Alienware) and play through Steam What I have tried thus far: 1) Restarting my PC 2) Reinstalling apex legend 3) Updating my graphics drivers, Windows OS 4) Running the game with NVIDIA Debug Mode 5) Adjusting graphics settings down (even though my machine can handle max specs) 6) Stress test found no issues with PC One thing I noticed was that in the past when I launched the game using DirectX11 it would work perfectly fine, but with DirectX12 it would crash like I described above. This is odd because my machine is totally DirectX12 compatible (I verified). With the latest Apex update, where they have removed DirectX11 compatibility, I have no workaround and these crashes every few matches persist. This is so incredibly frustrating. I reached out to EA customer support and chatted with a representative - I was told to try a clean boot of my PC, but that was it. I was told that if the problem persists after trying a clean boot to simply post on this forum and to wait for a mod to address the issue. Apex needs to fix this ASAP - the game is barely playable!
Denied Appeal, Wrongfully Banned.
So after last nights update, which was unusually large for me (60 something gigs) basically the size of the entire game, I found out I was banned with no listed reason. I submitted an appeal and tried to get in touch with an advisor. This morning, I received the most generic AI email saying that they conducted an investigation and stand by their decision and I was banned for cheating/using additional software/etc. Honestly, if I was hacking I would have better stats. Nor would I be trying so hard to regain access to the account. I have since resubmitted another appeal in hopes for my case to reach a human for review. I understand some background apps may be blacklisted but at least let me know which? I’ll delete whatever. I just want my account back. Anyone else have experience with this? Not to mention I just paid for the battle pass and got my first heirloom after 1200hrs of gameplay and a bajillion apex packs later. So I pay EA, and get banned. Nice. April fools is over, this isn’t funny anymore. Please help. Any help or advice is appreciated.
Black screen after title screen
I can't get past the title screen after today's update it just goes to a black screen with the title music playing in the background. Occasionally I might get through to the main menu but then I get removed back to the title screen with the message "The client is not running the anti-cheat, or has failed the anti-cheat authentication." Ive tried restarting my PC, validating files on steam, reinstalling/repairing the EasyAntiCheat nothing helped. What platform are you playing on? PC, Steam Origin ID / Gamertag / PSN Origin ID is: CurleyBruh, Steam name is Joe Hendry What were you doing leading up to the issue? Nothing, just tried launching the game after this mornings update on the 08/04/2025. Can you reproduce it? What are the steps? Yes 80-90% of the time I launch the game and press my mouse button to continue past the title screen it goes black and I hear the menu music.

Apex not recognized by Nvidia App + performance issues and crashes
for the whole current season, Apex has been consistently crashing and having janky fps performance. there's stuttering and constant screentearing despite everything seemingly being okay settings-wise and fps counter staying above 80 at all times, sometimes going over 100. Nvidia App (v. 11.0.3.218) doesn't recognize Apex anymore either. adding the game manually to the list results in the app saying the game is not supported. playing with the newest GeForce Game Ready driver (572.83). I think all of this only started happening ever since Apex got its DX11 version nuked. probably not a coincidence.
My game won't start
Hello, As stated in the subject, my game won't start, it freezes on the loading screen. I'm attaching a screenshot to show exactly where it happens. Also, the loading circle doesn't move at all. This has been happening since the new update was released—before that, there were no issues.
