It’s the Xbox mate that’s why nothing is happening and will never be fixed go back read my comments reason why I discovered it was my Xbox. Microsoft released bad batches and they are not admitting it as don’t want to be embarrassed
I'm having the same issues. What makes you think it's an Xbox issue I'm just curious

Because my son owns 3 Xboxes! so this is what happened.
buys a series x for my son Christmas present not long after the released.
every game worked fine. Until he wanted to play battlefield!
roll on the following Christmas, he get a second Xbox series x from his mum (we are separated so now he has Xbox at both our houses) he tries battlefield on new Xbox has zero problems!so I go out and buy him another for at my house and guess what? It works perfectly.
so I think anyone that has early(ish) batches of Xbox series x will have this problem.
funny thing is it wasn’t just battlefield that had the problem on the faulty Xbox also WWE2K did it! But also fine on his other 2

It's just weird because I don't have this problem with any other games. I'm not the only one having the problem either

Trust me that’s what I kept saying, when did you buy the Xbox? Also why did Microsoft offer me a free repair even when it was way out of warranty? They know they had a dodgy early batches of Xboxes but didn’t want to admit and look embarrassed

Oh they offered you a free repair? I believe I bought it in 2020 or so. I remember they were hard to get. I contacted Microsoft and my next step is to do a hard reset on the console which I really don't feel like doing. Did they make you go through that process also? I didn't realize they offered to fix it

Yes I tried everything nothing helped, you need to speak to someone on the phone and don’t give in say you had a bad batch! And funny that as I think that’s when I got mine

I hate to admit this but I believe a bad batch to be the only correct answer. Funny how I bought mine at a similar date - fairly quickly after they were released. I have the exact same issue, but with literally any new series X version of an EA game.
the only thing I put it down to is that they were rushing consoles out as the hype was huge and they were hard to get. I have tried literally every troubleshooting step. Contacted both EA & Microsoft who eventually offered me a refurbished console, for free. Considering my console was about a 2 years out of the standard 1 year warranty. Either way I declined, bought a new one myself and can now play fine.

Dammit.... I might have to take the refurbished one then. I can't afford a new one at the moment
