EA FC 25 stuck at FC25 Splash screen
Hello, I ran into this problem yesterday out of the blue. Tried everything mentioned here in the forum and every method not listed here but nothing is working. Please let me know if more info is needed.
- Description of the issue: Start the game from steam, opens up ea app with "preparing game.." popup, EA anticheats pops up, green bar filles up and the game opens for split second with nothing displayed then closed.
As I said, I've tried all the methods mentioned everywhere including here but nothing worked. One thing I did find is that, whenever I try to "verify the integrity of game files" on steam, it says "3 files failed to validate and will be reaquired". And trying to launch the game again will fail ofc and when i verify the integrity again the same texts popup. So that's a endless loop there. Don't know if that info helps with anything - Platform account (PSN ID, Xbox Gamertag, EA username): EA username: xuxiaobo826
