No it hasn’t. Overall my experience has been positive with the new drivers and BF1 update though. Played for ~5 hours today after work. Experienced two DX Function Error crashes - one was about 2 hours in.

Newest Driver didnt help.  
Then i tried the way to uninstall driver with DDU from 3DGuru and reinstall Version 373.06 again. Finally i could play about 5 hours without crash.  
Now there was this Update and after 10 minutes i had a crash with another DirectX Error.

There are ppl who suck at their job not fixing this error. I dont even know if anyone cares. Really annoying.

Edit: Wow…the game lags now so hard. Dunno what updates they did. But they REALLY REALLY suck at their job.

Yes, it is annoying but please don’t bash programmers. They have hard and ungrateful job. It is really hard to find a bug in a code. And even if you was able to find there is another problem - fix it. Very often you can’t fix it without breaking something else. And when there are a lot of people working on different parts of the code and you don’t know their part (with that amount of code it is just impossible) you aren’t sure if it will break something else or not (most likely yes, it will). I know, you do not care and you actually shouldn’t be. You just want to enjoy the game you paid for. But think about people on the other side. Your bashing won’t make them work harder. Have a bit of respect, please.

Updated game and drivers.

I still have exactly the same error, today 2 times in 2 games. 40€ for getting a Directx Error. First fix the game and then release it, morons.

375.63 has no difference vs 375.57. Learn to read notes which are released with drivers …

I dont bash. I just tell how it is. I cant afford such things in my job. I understand, that there are bugs. **But thats a major issue. Thats not how you threat your customers. Thats the main problem.**

No need to be like that… Sure a lot of people are having issues but do you think EA/Dice has all of build configurations at their disposal? Its like near impossible to test the game on every PC configuration before release. And of course the Beta wasn’t really to iron out the issues as many of the issue that were in beta are still present, the Beta EA cleverly uses to get the hype built up so people will buy it.

Anyway Make sure your windows is upto date, and before you just randomly say it is, go check, windows will sometimes not update right away, Also go into your games Directory and in the \_Installer/VC folder, both folder will have a redist folder, go into that and install or repair both Visual C+ and then give your game a try. You can also repair the game via Origin, give that a try as well. If that does nothing for you, Download Display Driver Uninstaller and uninstall anything related to your graphics card, you normally don’t have to be in safe mode, after it removed either your AMD or Nvidia drivers, reboot and download the newest drivers and install them, Reboot every time it asks, if it don’t ask go ahead and do it for the heck of it just to be safe.

5 systems I work on have no issues  
#1 i7 5960x / GTX1080 / Windows 10  
#2 i7 3770s / 2x GTX780ti’s / Windows 10  
#3 FX8320 / GTX670 2gb / Windows 10  
#4 i7 920 / GTX780 / Windows 10  
#5 Q6600 / GTX760 / Windows 10

None of them system have any sort of issues running this game, the Q6600 is a bit dated and much much weaker then the min requirements but is able to get over 60fps most of the time at 1080p unless things start to get nuts. Every system is also on the newest drivers other than the AMD system.

Like I said its impossible to test every PC config, its not like its a console.

its possible to check common card like gtx770 and there are other cards has this problem too. Also we never saw this problem at another game. And this unplayable state is not only problem they ignored us like 5 day after fresh release.

Well…  
If they do this so cleverly, they dont have to complain if customers release their anger after such a unstable release. And this would prove thats just all about the money.

And thanks for your tips. We heard them about 50 times now.  
I installed drivers about 5 times, different versions. Clean uninstall and reinstall. Windows is up to date. BF1 repaired 2 Times already. Spent many hours on all the stuff and always thought “Take it easy bro…”.  
But to be honest: The time to take it easy is over. I did everything i could, more than once. Now its their turn.

Have you already tried creating “user.cfg” in you game directory and setting the command “GameTime.MaxVariableFps 50”?
