    Hey @armoflame, 

    It sounds like there might be something blocking the game from starting up correctly. Have you had the chance to try starting up your PC in a Clean Boot to see if that helps at all? If there is something else running on the PC that's not allowing the game to launch that may help get around it. 


    For more information on how to set one up check out the EA Help website. Let me know if you're still having any trouble with the game not starting after that. Thanks!

    @EA_Kent I have same like this problem too on my pc

    I launch Steam , then I launch the game, the "EasyAntiCheat" loading starts, finishes, but then nothing. The game won't launch.
    and here's what I tried:
    1) Reinstalling Steam

    2) Repairing the game

    3) Repairing through the "EasyAntiCheat.exe" app

    4) Making the app an exception in "Firewall"

    5) Updating every driver that could be updated (Including GPU)

    6) Switching it to Origin

    7) Reinstalling it



    And still nothing. I really need help, please can anyone tell me what to do ? By the way I use win10

    @EA_Kent  Why are we pretending it's not the exact same issue everyone else in the megathread is having whereby EAC is absolutely borked and won't let people into the game since the latest update?
