After an update for NFS Hot Pursuit Remastered, The game will not launch, I've tried launching directly from game files and as administrator, but no success. Origin says I'm in game for a few moments then goes back to "online" status, in the task manager it shows up in background processes then disappears. Please help!
Game does not launch for me either. I am starting it from the EA Desktop beta app and black screen comes, then exits in 3 seconds. Game does not launch. This is why I paid for EA account and it does not work at all. Shame.
I'm having the same issue.. launches to black screen for a few seconds then exits.
I thought it was because I was running Windows 11 at first, but I then made a fresh install of WIndows 10 in a dual boot setup. Doesn't seem to launch there either... However in Win10 when I launch, it opens Origin, attempts to run the game and then seems to launch Origin a second time but nothing happens. (I'm running the Steam version btw)
Tried re-installing game, re-installing various graphics drivers, running the repair, clean booting windows... it's doing my head in... I've wasted pretty much the whole day trying to get this thing to work.
I know it's been a while, however is the issue fixed in the meantime?
If not, have you tried changing the way the game is launched?
Sometimes, booting the game in Windowed mode directly might help, as it doesn't overwork the computer (requiring less resources to start). I see some of you are trying to boot it from EA Desktop, Origin and Steam. I will leave the steps below, under the spoiler:
⤷ Origin / EA Desktop (Steps to be performed outside the client):
My problem is I can get in the game, adjust video settings however I want, queue into a lobby, and as soon as the lobby is supposed to start, it crashes. It can't seem to load a race. Nothing posted fixes that.
@EA_David We need another patch. We've haven't had a single patch since February. I can't even launch Hot Pursuit from Origin as well as Steam anymore. We also would like more content for this game because there's just nothing to do anymore.
