DICE, you should TEST THOROUGHLY your updates before RELEASING them. This is called COMMON SENSE and that’s what every developer do. ---

Keeps crashing every game i play in three ways: If i could play longer than 1 hour: memory leak issue. It says i have too less memory, and the windows minimisez( sometimes i can continue, but crashes totally after 15 minutes: If i could play half an hour: disconnected error: it advises me to look if i have UDP port 3659 open? if i could play 15 minutes: it crashed with no reason. Windows advises me “to close program”. Problems started one month ago and gets worses with the week. Now its unplayable since last update. I have no user.cfg file. Acer laptop Nvidia geforce GT 650 m 2 gb. Intel core I7 - 3630 QM 2.4 gh 6 Gb RAM 64 bits updated everything to the bone!!! and never had such big issues since 3 weeks. ---

what about the stuttering issue? I got it since the jan patch before that it ran fine on my computer. I read that others had this issue from day one! tried al the kiddy fixes people post about. But none of those seem to work for me and many others. can we get someone from your team to at least give some feedback on it? ---

this workaround works for me so far…i will say it if something changes anyway, i have to say thank you DICE for trying to fix that problem so quick! i stand behind all of you and respect your great work! EDIT: after about 3 rounds i got the same problem as before…as soon as battlefield switches to the deploy screen, game and computer freeze. ---

> [@](#): > > _Gervan77 said:_ > I installed patch 25 Feb, PC. Game crashes on load. Crash to desktop with "BF4 stopped working…" I tried above method, but only able to play 3-5 minutes before crash to desktop. I deleted "UI.DrawEnable 1". It works, again for 3-5 minutes before crashing. I notice that the command line 9UI.DrawEnable 1" gets put back into the file after each launch. Is this suppose to happen, or is it suppose to be deleted for good? Just to follow-up…I also have Windows 7 and before today’s patch the game DID NOT crash on that PC. NOW with the patch, even that PC crashes while game loading. BF4 stopped working… ---
