  • First of all for the love of god please separate the Technical Issues section into system categories like PS4, Xbox, PC. It is a big pain to read through all the titles even if they aren't for your system. Just chaos.

    I also can't launch the game. At first it didn't let me log in via Origin at all. So I accessed the game download via the EA website.

    The download was showing in my Origin client and once it was done I hit the Play button. A small window pops up and a bar is loading. Once that bar hits 100% I get the Can't launch error and that's it. No error code, no further info.

    I wonder why it is so difficult these days to put out a game that you install and just hit play without having to troubleshoot a whole day to get to nowhere.

    I had same issues with Wolfenstein 2 and just gave up on it. And don't give me that there are too many variables on PC crap answer. Those companies have tons of resources just buy a bunch of PCs with different setups and test the * out of it before you release it into the wild. Or release a Alpha, Beta prior to release.

    I have all the latest drivers installed for every hardware in my PC and still no luck.

    My specs are:
    Ryzen 5 2600 @4Ghz

    Asus Strix GTX1080 Ti OC

    16GB RAM @3000Mhz

    Windows 10 Home 64-bit

  • Thanks.

    I have tried the language change suggestion already, still same.

    I also reinstalled Origin, nothing changed.

    Tried to repair the file set, still doesn't work.

    Still not able to launch game at this point.

    Well 5h1t! Now I can't even login to Origin anymore.

    Sign in failure
    Sign in is currently unavailable. Please try again later.
     
    Thanks EA. You really make it hard on yourself to earn money and to get the love of the gamers out there.
     
    Guess my troubleshooting has just ended. On we go to the next game then.

    I have also tried the language change, reinstalling both Origin and Apex as well as repairing. The game will not launch for me - loading stops after the anti-cheat screen cycles. I have checked my firewall, and there is no conflict. 

    Specs: 

    Windows 10 Professional

    Intel Core i5 8600K

    Nvidia GTX 1070

    16 GB RAM

    Multiple SSDs/one HDD

    I really love it how the very first time I install and use Origin, the game I want to play on it won't even run.

    It's 2019, come on EA!

  • Same here im just going to wait for it to come out on steam is it ever dose

    There is a fairly simple fix.  When your firewall asks for permission it doesn't take into account its connecting through different servers/languages.  The changing of language works for some people because it will reprompt you to accept access.

    This will work for Windows 10 users.

    • Type into the start menu windows defender firewall
    • Select "Allow an app or feature through windows defender firewall"
    • In the list look for Apex Legends
    • At this point you will notice there is more than one
    • You will want to allow the all of them for example (Apex Legends (English) en_US)

    Restart the game or just tab back in to it as it will have most likely connected after this.

    Okay ... still none of the "fixes" above works for me.

    Please ALL make a ticket in Origin who can´t get it to run. Maybe we get a hotfix.

    I've had the same problem, tried every single solution, nothing worked.

    I thought to myself, what COULD be the problem? And i, personally, found a solution. Im sorry if this dosen't work for you.

    If you have installed Apex Legends (dosen't matter with origin client) on your HDD, try moving it to your SSD, which will make your game launcher more compatible with your drive.

    If you started off putting it on your SSD in the first place, try moving it to another drive and moving it back again. If that didn't work, or you just dont have another drive. Reinstall the game and locate it at your SSD in your OWN made file. Not ''Origin Library'' or whatever file they automatically put on your pc for your games. You do this in your install log.

    If none of this works, i would contact their support if you haven't already. Im sure they get thousands of requests like this a day.

    btw, this worked for me and all my friends that had the problem.

    I hope the best for you, bud.

    Hey everyone, make sure that all drivers for windows and your gpu drivers are up to date. 
     
    You can also try to do a clean boot to see if there any programs messing with Apex and turn off any overlay programs for example Discord or Nvidia experience.
     
    Try running a CCleaner to remove old temp files and cache.
     
    If non of the above works can you upload a dxidag so we can see what drivers and hardware you are using. 
     
    Let me know if this works or not for you. 🙂

    So my game was installed on HDD and I moved it to SSD as Willaarr said and IT WORKED

    Thanks man

    Give it a try guys.

  • I've installed the game on my HDD, and all 3 of my SSDs, always getting the same issue - game won't launch after the Easy AntiCheat loading window closes. 

    Origin says I have 39 hours played.....I guess it counts another hour for each unsuccessful launch attempt? 

    I guess I won't be able to play this game, but can play literally EVERYTHING else.

  • mano eu nao consigo jogar uma hora da um erro 30005 e depois 10011 como faço pra corregir
