Summarize your bug Unable to start the game in fullscreen mode using DirectX 12 as this causes the main menu to be frozen
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Launch the game in fullscreen with DX 12 enabled.
What happens when the bug occurs? Only started having this bug a few days ago and have been playing ok for a few days since the last BF1 patch so I am not sure what has caused this, but when launching the game now in fullscreen with DirectX 12 enabled this will just load a black screen, with the loading indicator in the top-right corner frozen. I can alt-tab out and the menu will appear with sounds playing, I can move the cursor around and click on things, but what is supposed to be showing on-screen will not update unless I alt-tab out and back in. Here is a video to show it a bit further as explaining with words is a bit tricky. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQSs8TndTy4 The sudden jumps in the video are when I am having to alt-tab out and back in, which updates the screen. Notice that when changing to borderless the issue doesn't occur. Things I have done already: Repaired the game through Origin. Installed latest drivers (done this twice, updated them yesterday, and also tried the new nvidia hotfix driver released today). Deleted my profile/config and made a new one.
