I actually know the cause of this. YOU SIR put directX12 on in the graphics section. What you need to do is go to your search bar in windows, type battlefront 2, find the games files, and delete it. Make sure that you also empty out the recycling bin to fully do it. Now then, when you do that IT WILL NOT delete the game, just the profile. And don't worry about progress, of you have the cloud save on (on origin) then it will be fine. What this is actually doing is in short resetting you're option settings to the direcX12 is NOT on.

Can anyone confirm @zackboring's fix?

@EA_Blueberry 

it may work for some people but for people like me it didn't work

I haven't gone to the extremes of deleting files, but (on Windows 10) I go to Documents -> STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT II -> settings and open the BootOptions file in notepad/wordpad and change the GstRender.EnableDx12 setting to 0, save, and close.  After this change the game boots quickly, but you have to reset this option every time you relaunch the game.  I think you can turn off Dx12 by setting the GstRender.EnableDx11 or GstRender.EnableDx12 options in the ProfileOptions_profile file, but I haven't tested it out.
