Loads forever, then turns black

GPU Drivers up to date?

Reset 3D Properties in nVidia Control Panel  /or/ Catalyst Control Center.

Disable any overlay programs  and/or Origin in Game.

Thanks for the reply, but sadly none of those worked.

I have the same issue. My computer freezes up too and requires me to hold power for 5s to shut off. I'm sure this is slowly killing my HDD as I do this.

Just curious, what game are you trying to join? I'm able to join Heist and Crosshair games but unable to join Hotwire and Blood Money games.

Hello There,

I had the same exact problem and I exhausted every possible solution but, what I discovered was that I had to delete all the files in these following Sims folder to get my game to run smoothly, and rapidly. You have to delete the files in the following folder:

Featured Items files

DC Backup files

Collections & Delete the files in the User folder

Move your screenshots to your pictures in a new folder as long as you get them out of the Sims folders.

Delete all of you start up paper icons

I invested in a gaming computer which, helped it run a lot better, faster, and with no graphic problems.

Hello, I found a fix for my problem. Right click the game on origin and click repair game. Worked for me, anyway.

Yeah I tried that then it said my account was using a wrong language and told me to reinstall, so that screwed me up a bit because now I have to reinstall a big * game (Damn AAA developers.)
