wow again?
why you need to delete the config over and over again?
please stop this, it is waste of time and annoying

They only deleted my could save once and the game hasn't ran right since then. Are you PC or console?
- CountSero4 years agoSeasoned Ace@zbran1 on PC (Steam) since the patch it happens nearly every day
i already reapaird the game files (with no error) - zbran14 years agoRising Veteran
Only had it one time. Had to go in and redo all my settings. Very frustrating as I couldn't remember exactly what I had selected only that I was happy with them as they were...

- CountSero4 years agoSeasoned Ace@EA_Atic Hi nope no drop box or cloud storage in use
and if I’m right origin games are not using the steam cloud
also checked (3 times) my windows ssd, the game ssd and the HDD where the config is stored and there were no errors also zero fragmentation
so, it seems my hardware is fine
also, no overclocking, all runs on stock
so only things that comes to my mind is that the cache\config HHD is slower than the game ssd but imho this shouldn’t be a problem it
also, i gave up to report it was 5 of 8 days since the last patch - EA_Atic4 years ago

Hi @CountSero, if it keep resetting, something is blocking Origin or Steam from saving in its folders. So each time you start up its like new etc.
/Atic - CountSero4 years agoSeasoned Ace@EA_Atic no the file is getting a new time stamp on each start i checked this
i'm not shure but I think the origin thin client is the problem, depending on the system load andf if the client is fully loaded
at the moment I trying to use the original client, it seems than this problem is not occurring - CountSero4 years agoSeasoned Ace@EA_Atic i have a little update for you
i used the standard origin client since Monday and had no problems
I tested the thin client troday and some issue returned
- game starting time is much longer
- on first start the connection to online service will not happen (the blue writing is not showing up and you see only the video loop in the background forever)
-one times the game started in window mode instead of full screen
So, it seems that the thin client is causing issues for me (and I think that this will also cause the config issues for me)
So I will use the standard clients, this works fine for me - CountSero4 years agoSeasoned Ace@EA_Atic unfortunately, just some seconds ago i started up the game and my settings were rested again.
i need to mention that i started the game already twice today without any issue and restart of the system, so there were no new installs or upgrades to the system
I checked windows history and the last updates beside the security update of the MS Defender (which will be released daily and the last one was today, which I think should not influence Origin or BF2042 in anyways) where from 16 June 2022
So, I think this happens every time when DICE is tinkering with the backend\servers (I read some news that tomorrow will be a patch day) also the news banner on the start has changed again
So, I think there is some connection with my assumption about tinkering at the backend and the resetting of the config file.
Also, since I changed to the regular origin version instead of the thin client 2 weeks ago I had not one issue with resetting of the config file.
So now I’m more convinced that this problem is caused due to network issues or works on the backend\servers.
