Hi again @TheMegosh, it sounds like you did everything correctly when you did that uninstall/reinstall - although you can never rule out some registry thing causing problems!
But surely the x64 version wouldn't be able to launch (as it does for you) in campaign mode too?
Did you try running the x64 version in compatibility mode for Win 8 (or Win 7)?
Try to keep this thread visible and you will get a solution to your problem.
Thanks again...
I did another uninstall and redownloaded the game and all expansions last night, without change. As someone who's faith in the game was low (the reason for my lack of playing, mostly caused by the seemingly infinite "????????" moments), this doesn't make me feel any better. Very disappointing after spending 1200+ hours on BF3 and buying premium for both.
As a member of EA, is there not someone more technical you can direct my question to? I mean it seems rather strange for it to fail so unusually. I would be happy to participate in any sort of "live" troubleshooting via skype or other in order to resolve this issue for potential others. As a programmer and PC enthusiast I personally would want to get my hands on my product in the situation it seems to be failing.
@TheMegosh, like most people on here, I'm not associated with EA in any way. I'm just a normal gamer like yourself, but who sorts out common problems.
You can get in touch with an EA games advisor for live chat and maybe they can sort you out.
