I bought Battlefield 1 five days ago. It installed. Ran smoothly ever since. Both matchmaking and campaign. Today when I tried to start BF1 from Origin, it just wouldn't launch. Took me roughly 2 hours to fix that problem. When I finally get into the game I encounter the next problem, loading screens, FOREVER, when trying to enter any matchmaking or EVEN campaign missions. My average loading screen for Matchmaking was around 1 minute long before. Now it just loads without end. As I'm writing this it has been trying to load a campaign mission for 35 minutes. The cinematic before the game loads will play successfully, then the used-to-be short Loading Screen just loads forever. It doesn't freeze, the game doesn't crash, it just loads endlessly. What do I do?
I have tried: Re-installing the game and repairing the game.
I'm on PC, Origin. Linking my specs below and sending a DxDiag.txt with this post.

Part of your issue is that your PC doesn't meet the minimum specs to run BF1. Your CPU is below the minimum required specs, and BF1 is a CPU intensive game, couple that with your RAM being at the minimum recommended level and you've got yourself a recipe for poor performance. Your GPU is at the recommended level so no issue there. You can see how your processor rates against the minimum required processor here: http://cpuboss.com/cpus/AMD-Phenom-II-X4-965-vs-AMD-FX-6350
The thing about a rig that doesn't meet the minimum specs is that the game may run well for a while, but a Windows update, a GPU driver update, or a game title update could make your game go from running well to barely running or not running at all since the minimum specs are the absolute minimum level that the devs guarantee that they game will run on. If you can upgrade your CPU and you should be all right.
