Hey guys so I recently purchased Battlefield V and while I was playing it I noticed that after 30 minutes that my game just freezes then closes out with no error message. I contacted EA 5 times and they gave me trouble shooting steps I suggest you guys try first Troubleshooting Steps: CLEAR ORIGIN CACHE:
Completely log out and close down Origin
Hold down the Windows key and R
Type in “%ProgramData%” (without quotes) and click OK
Now open the Origin folder.
Delete all the files and folders in the Origin folder, except for LocalContent (do not delete this one)
Hold down the Windows key and R
Type in “%AppData%” (without quotes) and click OK
This will take you to a Roaming folder, which is located inside of AppData. Delete the Origin folder
Click on the word “AppData” at the top of your window
Open the Local folder here
Delete the Origin folder listed here
Restart your PC and log back into Origin
Disable windows firewall:
Open the Control Panel.
Click on Windows Firewall.
If the Windows Firewall is enabled, the Windows Firewall state will be On. To turn it off, in the left navigation pane, click on Turn Windows Firewall on or off.
In the Customize Settings window, select Turn off Windows Firewall and click OK.
Disable windows antivirus:
To Disable Antivirus: Open the Windows OneCare user interface.
Click View or Change Settings > Antivirus Tab.
Click the radio button to turn the anti-virus off.

Now if these steps don’t work, let me tell you what I did to fix my game
I downloaded a program called Driver Easy Direct Download:https://www.drivereasy.com/DriverEasy_Setup.exe
The program will scan your computer and detect any outdated drivers. I had 7 outdated drivers and one of them was RealTek Audio which according to EA saw that it crashes when my game crashes. After I updated all my drivers I checked my BIOS version. Turns out that it was one year old. I updated my BIOS and then my game ran fine. If you don’t know how to update your bios look up on youtube on how to update your BIOS with your motherboard model. If you have an ASUS X99-Deluxe I got you :
NOTE: In the video he tells you to put a USB into your BIOS USB port. If you dont have it then you can just plug your USB into any port and it still works!
ONE LAST THING TO TRY BEFORE MY WAY: Do a clean install of your NVIDIA driver.
I know the game just came out and a lot of people have told me in game that their game has been crashing randomly as well. I hope this fixes the game for a lot of you guys! If none of this helped dont worry, im sure there will be plenty of updates fixing this issue
The game used to crash once I joined a game. The map would flash once in a game and it would crash, I assumed due to the underpowered card I had (it was pretty low-end). So I BOUGHT a 1060 SC 6GB just to play the game. Now it just crashes with no error, nothing has worked.
What the hell do I do? This is frustrating. Wasting money to play a game that is poorly optimized.

Honestly, the “disabling anti-virus” method worked for me. Specs are as follows:
AMD FX-8350
16 GB DDR3 RAM
RX 580 8GB
480 GB SSD (where the game is installed, not the same as where Windows is installed)
Windows 10 Home Basic (I think)
Once the game was bought, it refused to play with me for a while. Tried downgrading graphics to absolute minimum, was able to play three rounds of Domination before it crashed again. Funnily enough, I also found it kind of weird that the game took upwards of a minute to load, and that usually meant the anti-virus was going crazy. What I did was put the entire Battlefield V folder under the “Exceptions” list in my anti-virus and bam – no crashes whatsoever. Even kicked the graphics up to high – though the game would struggle to load certain things (pretty sure the processor is holding my system back), it still ran smoothly up to 60 FPS with no crashing.
Also did a couple of other things, too: So I had manually set a ‘profile’ under the AMD Radeon settings because it didn’t pick up Battlefield V, for some reason. I turned this off during the same procedure as the anti-virus “Exceptions” thing. Also, I increased page file size/virtual memory for the drive the game is on – can’t remember the exact procedure for this step, but apparently, this increases the amount of RAM used during operations attached to a certain hard drive (I think). There’s sites out there that explain how to do this in great detail, though. I don’t know if doing these steps also contributed to solving the issue with my game, but I felt I should include this as well, in case the anti-virus thing isn’t the problem.
(Second time typing this, lost text to a browser error x_X )
So I had been experiencing this problem as well, and getting around the anti-virus seemed to do the trick. My specifications are as follows:
Windows 10 Home Basic (I think)
AMD FX-8350
RX 580 8GB
16 GB DDR3 Ram
480 GB SSD
On top of the crashing, I noticed that the game would take an absurd amount of time to load as well – like, two minutes just for the main menu, absurd. Usually, when this happens, it tends to be the anti-virus going crazy, so I put the entire Battlefield V folder into the “Exceptions” list for my anti-virus, and bam – no more crashing, and it loads within seconds. Before, I couldn’t even run a match on Low settings without crashing (I managed 3 rounds one time, but it still crashed.); now I’m playing on High with only minor graphical stuttering.
Also of note: I did a couple of extra things during this process, so it may very well transpire that one of these steps is the real solution. 1.) So I had manually assigned a ‘profile’ to the game under the AMD Radeon graphics settings, since the program hadn’t picked up the game. I turned this off to see if it would help. 2.) I also increased page file size/virtual memory for the SSD the game is installed on – can’t remember the exact procedure, but judging from others’ assumptions that the RAM is at fault, I decided to look into this option. Previously, there had been no memory assigned to the drive (I think), so I just changed a few options around to rectify that.
Frostbite has always been finicky about overclocks, going back to the BC2 version of Frostbite. I’ve had clocks pass 24+ hrs on Prime95, and through all of AIDA64’s tests, yet would crash while gaming on Frostbite. Either giving an extra .01 of voltage, or lowering mhz just a bit generally solved the issue.
Frostbite in the past didn’t really like factory overclocked graphics card either. People had to lower clock speeds on those sometimes to prevent issues. The engine really is much better than it used to be though.
