Wont Open

I pre-ordered the game through steam. I have yet to be able to play it. I open it and the title picture pops up then the game closes with no error message. It also says "game not released" in the downloads section of steam still as well. I've uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times. Cleared the cache on steam and EA more times than i can count. Also, did what some people said fixed theirs and unselected some of the markers from "DLC" section and none of it has worked. I don't want to refund it because i wont get the exclusive pre-order items but i don't know what else to do.

  • Someone in the forums has found the error, the post I can not find now, but Javelin is not communicating with Battlefield 6's license/entitlement. Meaning that Javelin can not verify that the game is legit. Apparently from what I can see in the forums this is affecting all different kinds of variations of PCs. This is why none of the fixes have worked for this. Secure boot, boot drive configuration, changing security properties, etc. The anti-cheat is the current problem, I found a post earlier and just reposted my own take. EA as far as I know does not care about this issue.

    also chatted with a person from EA and he said to open and close steam completely 4 or 5 times. Just did that and it still doesn't work. Gonna try and uninstall and reinstall for the 4th time.

    For me it worked after I created a new user for my pc without a Microsoft email and adding the bf6.exe file to the exploit Protection.

    You shouldn't need an IT degree to make a game work. I'm not gonna bother with that, there's no reason we as consumers should have to jump through a dozen hoops to get a game to play. I'll go play Arma or Squad until they can fix the issue. That is just my opinion, I'm a bit salty that it's the exact same thing that happened during the Beta

    Just finished the 4th uninstall and reinstall and the first thing it did was go down into the scheduled download section and say "game not released"
