Apex freeze/crash after a few seconds after today's update

Hello,

 

after today's update the game freezes and crashes a few seconds after starting. A few hours before I could play without issues.

I don't even have to do anything and it freezes/crashes just sitting in start screen.

Steam version.

 

What I tried:

-restarted PC

-verified game files

-disable steam overlay

-removed launch options

-closed MSI Afterburner (because of Rivatuner overlay)

 

Main PC specs:

CPU Ryzen 7800x3d

GPU RTX 3080ti

32GB RAM

 

 

Edit:

 

Also tried enabling the graphics settings as mentioned in another thread from a few months ago:

"

Sun Shadow Detail - > High
Sun Shadow Coverage - > High
Spot Shadow Detail - > High
Dynamic Spot Shadows - > Enabled. 

"

And deleting Apex folder in "C:\Users\[Username]\Saved Games\Respawn".

Updated graphics driver too.

Still no difference, still crashes...

Hey everyone,

 

This should be resolved, thanks again for the patience.

 

Please give it another try next time you have a chance to hop back in-game and let us know if you're still seeing an issue.

Hey folks,

 

Sorry to see you've had some trouble with this. We've just pushed a fix that should help correct this on Steam.

 

Can you try restarting the game and checking again? You should be able to get back in now, though it may help to Verify File Integrity if you're still seeing this.
