BF2042 Not Launching
I've tried literally everything I've seen on the this forum as well as reddit and YouTube such as -Updating windows (Windows 10 22H2) -Updating Geforce GPU Drivers (531.26 the hotfix one) -Unins...
I came here to post that my game is also not launching through steam. Or EAapp. I don't get any error messages or anything, it just goes from the green play button, to the blue Stop button, then back to the green Play button. The game never starts.
I also have been having this issue since update 3.2. I'll have to press the Play button about 15 times in steam for the game to launch.
Most times I click the button, it goes blue for a few seconds, then back to green without anything else happening on my screen. Sometimes I'll see EA launch, and then go away, and the the play button goes back to green. And rarely I'll see anti cheat show up, but the game won't load after that, just goes back to desktop. Sometimes a restart helps, but most times it doesn't.
I keep having this issue every time I try to open the game still. And today a new issue arises: now the buggy EA app opens and tells me the game was downloaded by another user on my machine, and that I need to either buy the game again, or sign to the account that bought the game. I have no other user on my computer, and also only one EA account. Seriously this is extremely frustrating, and I would wish EA would either fix their app, or not force us to use it.
