Re: BATTLEFIELD V - Won't launch on EA Desktop or Origin. 2021

The first screenshot with the "optimizing" is some third-party app you have installed that is messing with installations. I don't know what application that looks like that but I would turn it off.

The second screenshot that is listing the missing Qt platform plugin is more puzzling. Try redownloading the Origin Desktop installer from https://www.ea.com/ea-desktop-beta and make sure to run it manually as administrator (right-click --> run as adminisstrator)

    So to give you an update, i was with EA chatting yesterday for 6 hours & tried countless steps.

    They ended up telling me at the end that it is just an issue i have to deal with till its resolved.

    Also to follow EA on twitter to stay up to date. lol 

    The optimizing App is GAMEFIRST VI, i went into my setting/Admin control panel & disabled all programs at launch along with anti virusl.

    The game still refused to launch, i really don't know what's going on here.

    My Nvidia says i have the latest driver installed, my windows is up to date.

    I have ran both as admin, i have used CCleaner done the uninstall & restart, repeated the steps with REVO instead.

    All my other games that have downloaded via EA Play work fine except for Battlefront V.

    Modding Battlefront II & the character cosmetics is easier then this.

    Im at the point were im going to subscribe with Steam to see if i can launch the game through their.

    Im at a lost right now & really do not know what to do.

  • I think this is a bug of BFV, and I can only wait for BFV to be updated again.

    Your having the same issue? My roommate downloaded the game & started it with no problems.

    He just bought a pre built predator pc with a RTX2060 which is running DX12.

    Didn't mess with anything on his end, just download & launch.

    Im so pissed, they should just give us accesses codes to download the game at this point with out their 3rd party launcher.

    Such bull we have to deal with this, i came from Xbox thinking PC gaming would be easier & smoother.

  • @KingJR  did u try this ? https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-performance/could-not-find-or-load-qt-platform-plugin-windows/7cfc711c-25c2-446c-a719-2845374f720c

    2nd potential way to solve this problem -->, u can try unlock build windows Administrator account (I prefer method 1 from this webside --> https://www.technipages.com/windows-administrator-account-login-screen) , log into this account & try turn on BFV. This method fixed my problem with BFV Documents (settings ect.).

    If this 2 potential ways to solve the problem won't help, just try the lost one.-->  u can to try to it's with choosen option ,,save your files'', then OS will reinstall withound lost ur data (almost like format OS) but try first  try these 2 ways above or look for others, option ''Reset this PC'' is really the ultimate method
