Reinstall direct x!
you can either go to the website for direct x or go into the game system folder and look for the folder that says installer\eula\ direct x.exe.

should fix it!

The error reads about a shader problem, so you should update or reinstall DirectX. I wouldn't be surprised if the game still caused problems, though, as it lags like mad.

I would say update drivers for graphx card (i hate when people say that 2). check and make sure all windows updates are updated. see if uninstalling then reinstall directx helps. If you have origin or steam right click on the game in origin/steam and try and see if a repair install gets you anywhere.

i assume you meet all the minimal requirements

....lol im trying man

5 bugs/glitches that I've noticed on the Xbox 360 while playing as a RCPD unit in Freedrive.
*Gameplay Bugs/Glitches*


#1: Sometimes when passing through event activation locations (Hot Pursuit, Interceptor, Rapid Response) the game freezes for a few seconds. Any sound effects such as crashes will continue to play as the game is temporarily paused. The game then continues with no negative effects from the pause.
Most of the time it has occurred on highways, when passing through event locations at high speeds.

#2: AI racers on occasion will literally vanish into thin air as they are approached; thus starting a pursuit with said racer is impossible. This has happened both online & ***offline***. They vanish at all ranges; from just within eyesight, to literally touching bumpers distance.

#3: AI controlled police vehicles patrol on the interstate incorrectly quite often; going against traffic which is beyond irritating & impractical. It's understandable that AI racers drive in oncoming sometimes, however an oncoming patrolling AI police unit will crash you every time in a head-on at high speeds.....it's an unwelcome surprise when playing as an RCPD unit as well.

#4: After starting a pursuit, EMPs sometimes "reset" right before firing. It seems to occur more often when numerous AI police have joined the pursuit to assist. The EMP is useable immediately after the glitch (no recharge) & the "reset" EMP is not deducted from the ammo supply. A very strange glitch.

#5: While rare, random AI racers can spawn directly ahead of players in close proximity, resulting in an unavoidable collision. It's literally the opposite of glitch/bug #2.

In Rapid Responses, sometimes crashes result in a "cinematic like" reset.

Upon the vehicle resetting from the collision, the player's vehicle will be uncontrollable & heading in the incorrect direction for a few seconds. The Rapid Response timer is still active during this time. After the inconvenience, the game either resets the vehicle again a second time (correctly) or the player eventually regains control & must manually turn around to continue.

This makes earning a gold impossible whenever it happens, for the timer remains active during the glitch.
In addition, the collision penalties are still active as well while the vehicle is uncontrollable.

Not sure if it's only in the PC version, but Undercover / Enforcer assignment voice/text is reversed.
You hear agressive stuff when choosing an Undercover assignment and "strike from within" and such when selecting Enforcer, which is...wrong. :P

disconnected/server crash , then the server migrates all users to a new server
annoying mid race as you can hear your car hitting walls while still loading the new server, and your time trial counter is still counting :(

A few of the assignment voice & texts on the Xbox 360 are the same way.

Quoting myself because the same bug/glitch can occur during Hot Pursuits.
AI racers continue traveling during, sometimes gaining a lead to where it's impossible to catch up.

This actually happens in all game modes, including free roam during pursuits. Really annoying.

My problem is that every time I play the game the game freezes just like NFS: undercover except for the fact that the timer but keeps running. I hope they fix this problem and soon. To be honest everybody has been saying that EA should have been using the chameleon 2.0 engine and not frostbite and I kind of agree with everyone on this subject after I've seen what the game can do.

Personal bug/glitch:

- Deployed a roadblock immediately as Hot Pursuit mission "Negotiations Over" began, as the racers went around the first corner all 3 were busted mysteriously. I had not caught up to them at that point, nor were any nearby AI police involved, & to top it the roadblock never appeared even though it was confirmed over the police radio. The racers vanished instantly once they had been busted.

This was on the Xbox 360.

Ended up getting a time of 9.81 seconds, didn't have time to really get involved, which ruined the fun. :(

Possibly trying to deploy a roadblock as a Hot Pursuit begins causes this "instant bust" glitch/bug.

I was at over 97,000 points for the 100,000 point mission when the host migrated and deleted all my points. WTF is that?
