cant update BF2042

After a battlefield update in the EA app, the EA app keeps asking to continue on the Terms of Play

When I click continue the app states "FINALIZING" and after that "READY TO LAUNCH" (and also update needed)

however when I click launch it runs this process again and again. it is in an endless loop

Updating again does not work either. 

Tried a Repair did not work

Cleared EA app cache did not work

Did several (forced) reboots in all stages of this loop

plz help...

  • yes I saw this read this article last week, I think I used the EA app Cache. did not help.

    After a while I tried to hard turn off my pc in the middle of the update process and that got it out of that loop and the game was able to start.

    This weeks update worked okay. Sort of figured it out.

    Started BF2042 but looks like not the full update was done

    BF2042 started seemingly okay, with notion of the new remodeled Doha/hourglass map 

    but could not find any game to play, when wanting to join a friend got an version error message,

    looks like EA app did not see any update nessecary to BF2042. But parts of it were updated, like the splash screen and notion of map changes.

    well

    In stead of choosing repair (like above) this week i chose to reboot, and start only EA app. 

    then the option of BF2042 was available, did the update without any problems. and played a few rounds

    lesson for me learned do not use repair option in EA app
