I just downloaded the game and ever time I open it the ea and maxis logos show up then a black screen with music shows up. The game is playing the screen is just black, I can't see any thing. I don't understand. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling but nothing works. Please help, thanks!
To PC gamers, I just found out what causes the problem with the game not launching. It's the in-game graphic settings. Here is what I did to fix it.
1. Uninstalled the game using Revo Uninstaller (including removal of all files and registry entires remaining)
2. Installed the game as Friend Pass (this one was launchable anyway) and lauched it
3. In graphic settings I set everything to default (reset)
4. Exit friend pass version
5. Started the normal (paid) version of a game.
Works fine. So this means one of the graphic settings causes the issue. My investigation says, it's Texture Quality - Ultra.
Please let me know if this fixes the problem for the rest of you.
Have a good Sunday!
Defenitly works for my part !! Thanks Dominique, the issues comin form the in-game graphic settings
IF texture quailty is the cause of this issue, then you may be able to simply edit the Local Settings file located in >>C:\Users\USER NAME\Documents\My Games\A Way Out by going into the localsettings file and changing Ultra to medium or high for texture resave the file and retry....or deleting the file all together to take it back to standard setup.
