PvZ BFN Crashing every 10-30 minutes

★ Novice

The day after I got the game, my game started crashing every few minutes. After I play 1-2 turf takeover matches, it crashed or after I enter the campaign mode for the plants, it seems to crash even sooner, maybe 10 minutes. It stopped crashing till yesterday when I played for the entire game and only closed my game twice to go and eat and to log off. But today it seems to start crashing again. Every time I load up the campaign mode, it crashes after a minute or 2 into the game and it seems the time for my game to crash seems to get shorter and shorter the more i reopen my game after it crashes. Please tell me if this is a computer problem or a server problem. I have been scrolling through tons of reddit posts and EA Answers HQ's and have not found a single person talking about this. I really hope this is just a server problem.

(The game runs smoothly, too, only seeming to lag when I enter a group of a lot of 8 or more people in multiplayer)

I have the same problem. Play one turf game then the next game I get frozen screen with the sound of death. Gotta restart my computer to get out of it. I know it's not my computer, I can play the most demanding games at highest settings and get 70+ fps np.

 

I tried @iluminatethesky suggested fix for the problem of the game crashing at start up and it did nothing, I also disabled hdr thinking it maybe had something to do with it.

 

Hope we can get some help as the game is basically unplayable for me like this

Thanks for responding @iluminatethesky. this is what you suggested as a fix for another issue that I thought might apply for our problem.

 

to hear about this issue you're experiencing.

 

Can you please try these steps as well?

 

1. Disable Origin in-game Overlay

 

2. Run Origin and PvZ as Administrator

 

3. Clear Origin Cache: 

 

4. Uninstall/Reinstall Origin: 

 

5. Disable Background Apps: 

 

Let us know if you still need assistance.

 

Thanks Standard smile

I also disabled in game overlay again after these steps didn't work.

 

I have also decreased the overall demand of the game like graphics and such.

 

Thanks

@DrSloppySauce You seem to have a slightly different problem than me and not as severe as me but they are pretty similar. It has to be 100% the games fault. I just hope they fix it soon because I want to get a head start of everyone else with the founders edition

Extreme "Rubber band" lag and computer crashes

[ Edited ]
★★★ Newbie

I just bought the game, fresh install on my PC. 
I already updated my graphic drivers to my latest, and for any other game I played my connection is perfectly fine.

And yet, I'm getting extreme "rubber band" lag to the point where the game is literally unplayable right from the first moment I click "play".

Not only that, after a few minutes into me launching the game, my computer just crashes?
I do want to mention I have a decent graphics card and a good CPU (CPU: i7 - 7700k 4.2 GHZ and a GTX 960 Graphics Card so this can't be the problem), also the game itself runs smoothly with 60 FPS.

HELP?
