Hey Everyone,
Thanks for calling this out to check if you haven't yet can you try going through the following steps.
- Troubleshooting Graphics issues
- Check for Windows and GPU updates
- Clear Origin Cache
- Repair BFV
- Disable Origin in-game overlay and any other running overlay
- Allowing Origin/Steam and the game through your anti-virus or firewall
- Run Origin/Steam and Apex as an administrator (by right-clicking desktop icons and selecting 'run as admin")
- Trying closing other applications or overlays running
- Clean Boot
If you continue running into issues would it be possible to get a DxDiag?
Thanks!

I have been through all those steps and nothing works like i posted, can you guys please look into it
Hi,
Sadly its the same here, i've done it all, and game just don't start.I have the latest drivers, Windows10, game fully updated etc..
What is extra strange is that i was playing the game for more than a year without issues, and one day - out of the blue, game just don't start.
Every other game works like a charm.
My questions is when EA will actually at least update the game to make it playable - not even to fix the long list of bugs...?

Hey @Loopper11,
If it has worked without issue for the majority of the time, and it suddenly just stops working for you, it's most likely that you have installed something on your PC that is now preventing the game from working as intended. We haven't done any changes to Battlefield V since its last patch, and I doubt there will be new updates to the game.
Are you playing the game via Steam, Origin or the EA app? Did you have any Windows updates recently by any chance?- @EA_Leeuw I was using Steam/Origin. Now i am using Steam/EA app, same result on both end. No new software is installed on that PC last few months. Only i get on monthly bases Windows 10 updates. But nothing else that is "Strange" I can confirm that all proposed solutions in this topic were tried - nothing works.
I never had any issues for ANY other game, how we can explain that?
