Confusing issue

Hello!
This is my first post on the forums, so let me know if I could have explained things better.
So my issue is that Battlefield V just won't "launch". 

Press Play on Steam
EA starts "preparing game"
Ea Launcher closes
The splash screen shows up
Splash screen closes
EA Launcher reopens
The game never starts.

It is the same when starting it from EA and within the files.
It is the same even after changing the executable to "run as administrator."
I have the game on Epic Games (but I don't really like their launcher)
I have tried with the anti-virus turned off
I have repaired, reinstalled, and updated the anti-cheat
If my dxdiag is needed, let me know, but PLEASE help me fix this issue.

    I am going to try microcenter and let you know what happens.

    Last time this happened I wanted to do a clean install of Windows anyway, so I just got rid of all of my files. If you feel the NEED to play now, go ahead and try that, but I am still going to try to find a solution for us... and if need be we just need to make this thread so popular that support staff CAN NOT avoid it.

    Microcenter says that there isn't anything that they can do because it is likely a game issue. I did purchase their 50$ package which will make sure everything is up to date with my windows and drivers. Takes around 1-2 days they say, but because the technicians were all working on something they will get to mine in the morning (currently 10:06 pm) so I will get mine back on either the 16th or the 17th. If they cant fix it then it is likely a game issue. I hope a mod see's this post and tries to help.

    I did look at a thread and found some solutions that look semi-promising.

    I believe the names were sherif35 and ratt35 or something.

    Microcenter has informed me that the problem is having both riot, and ea anticheat installed at the same time. I will mark this as a solution once I get my pc back, if it does work.

    We are screwed, boys.
    Any way this is my last post here. I'll mark this as a solution in around a week if no one else has any ideas for us to try.
