Need for Speed Heat will only launch a black screen

Mine works but it freezes a lot of time. like some glitch thru out the game. Before I dont have this issue. I only have this after the EA has some server problems. in origin it says that the game is not downloaded but in steam it is already downloaded. so I reinstalled origin. But still when i got into the play, it still has the freezing/ stuttering issue.

When I try to play NFS Heat it goes to the Connecting to ea / establishing connection screen and freezes and crashes . I bought NFS heat on steam but it’s opens via Origin. I’ve tried everything I could that I’ve found online (firewall,clean boot,repair/validate) but what I found is that by disconnecting my internet before going to the connecting to ea screen will allow me to play offline but reconnecting to online and pressing go online through the NFS menu will crash my game at the same connecting to ea/ establishing connection screen. Not sure why. When I first purchased the game it had this problems but after a few days it finally connected then after another few days it has this problem again . Please help ☹️

yes, it works, buat after i press enter, the display become fullscreen and then always minimized

legend, thx

Guys you all have to disable full screen optimisation on the game exe file in compatibility options.

Good news! I have finally found the main reason why NFS Heat crashes with a brief show of a blank screen at startup.

You need to remove XBOX Game Bar from Windows. To do so, simply open Powershell and run the following line:

Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.XboxGamingOverlay | Remove-AppxPackage

Then run the game in compatibility mode for WIndows 8. To do this, right-click on the game executable or its shortcut, click on "Properties", go to the "Compatibility" tab and check "Run this program in compatibility mode for" and select "Windows 8" and press "OK".

Let me know if this solves your problem. 🙂 Happy gaming.

P.S.: If you still have issues, in addition to these two steps, do everything everybody else is proposing such as disabling other gaming overlays and installing/updating DirectX, VC++ Runtime, Graphics drivers, etc.
