So am I. The error box said that was the GPU's driver problem.
But it wasn't solved after installed the latest one.

For me, i only crash if i try to connect to Hellhole of EA servers. Otherwise runs with latst Nvidia drivers
i Do not get an error box i press play then it shuts off Space marine 2 has the same issue after the 3.0 update

yes I cannot get past the character creation screen. Crashes every single time, but not at the EXACT same time, just always during that part of the starting portion of the game. Anyone with any help would be greatly appreciated.

Imagine that.
I was able to get the shader loading bar but it crashes during that so I have given up requested a refund and going to buy it on my Xbox instead

Try running game with admin righs and disable full-screen optimizations.

Can we have your hardware specs everyone? That whole "special bios requirement" for W11 makes me super skeptical about it running well on W10.

Ha! Updating my video card driver just now! Just in case! :)

Although still downloading the game, currently sitting at 42%.... 1 hour to go says Steam...

I seem to be having this issue too. I've linked my EA account to steam, but the game claims I haven't. Then when I try and connect to the online servers, it just crashes every single time. Seems to work fine when I skip connecting though.

My specs are the following:

amd ryzen 7 5800x
32 gigs ram
amd radeon rx 6800 xt
opensuse tumbleweed linux (kde plasma wayland)

I can play every single game in my library totally fine with one exception (the new dragons dogma - crashes constantly just like this game) I think games with the word dragon in the title are cursed for me!!!!!!!! lol.

I did a crash dump log file check after the last time I tried to play this game, and it was full of stuff I cannot understand:

I have the same issues like you guys. I tried already all kind of settings out and solution you find since a few hours on YT. But nothing works. My last error message I find in the Event Viewer is that the Game stopped interact with Windows. To delete the Shadow Cache Folder solved also nothing. My PC has a Nvidia RTX 4060 and I have a i5-13600K that should be way enough good at least to run it on high quality. I really hope they fix that problem. Either a Win11 or Nvidia issue.
