Resolved - PC Update 4.0.1 - Game won't go past EAC screen and EA app returns

When I run 2042, after the easy anti-cheat logo appears, eaapp runs again without any reaction. No error message appears. CM: edited title for clarity.

@b0gart-555 try my method i just copy paste here:


EA App problems main reason. when i use old origin version and block his update xml file pre settings as this text: everything working fine.

This file inside this location: C:\ProgramData\Origin You need to uninstal EA app and use origin but before launching origin this file must be editted: If this doesnt work for you then you need older version of origin file - because origin updated to not work.

@ham1tcagdasThe Origin client is no longer available from EA official sources. I'm not about to download the executable from some 3rd party website. EA needs to fix this issue.

    This will not fix a thing, the same problem persist, so ignore the spamming of this nonfix..

    Issue is not the EA app, it's something with the game startup, not what launches it..

    Hi everyone, 

    Update 4.1 has just been made available.

    Are you still experiencing this particular issue after installing Update 4.1?

    If you still experience the issue the first time after installing Update 4.1, please repair the game and try again. If it still happens after that, please let us know!

    When you run into the issue, it would be greatly appreciated if you could generate an EA app Error Reporter ID (how-to) and post it here in the thread.

    Many thanks!

    @EA_Leeuw This is a frustrating news, I can not play the game properly from the fourth season, the game will give me flashback, I tried a variety of ways can not be solved, and finally I had to give up, today updated 4.1.0, I decided to try again, found the game not only flashback, the screen will also be fixed in one place, but the game is sound, you just can not play. My video card is 4090, my cpu is 5800x, 32g of RAM, and my drivers are up to date. I'm really frustrated, I bought the game from the first release, now is not eligible to play?

    Hey @chap_0n,

    Are you still experiencing the exact same issue as what this thread is about?

    @Buzzfunk, that is not the topic where this thread is about. Please create a new topic for this if you wish to seek potential assistance with this from the community.

    @EA_Leeuw 

    Patch 4.1.0 fixed the closing at the anti cheat screen with BF2042 for me.

    I started the game many times and the problem did no longer occur.

    Fixed.

    @EA_Leeuw 

    Same here, it seems that you found the error. Thank you.

    I still have another issue, but that is another level of troubleshooting, that is not EA/Bfield Related

    @bigXoptimake sure ya delete all hidden folders / files also
    Use revo uninstaller to uninstall bf2042 (and game platform), make sure ya checked ADVANCED in revo to scan and check for any registry keys / folders.

    Then manualy delete all folders / files related to bf2042 / EAC.

    I delete everything from EAC / BF2042 , Origin and EA app at locations below:
    C:\Users\USERNAME/AppData (folders local and roaming)
    C:\ProgramData
    C:\Program Files (x86)
    C:\Program Files

    Cheers

    ps ya need to download / reinstall gameplatform and game again if ya do the same as i did !
