Product: Need for Speed: UnboundPlatform:PCSummarize your bug Game crashes seconds after launching, when I launched the game for the first time I made it to the car selection screen then once I chose my car it crashed. After the first crash it would keep crashing everytime I would launch the gameHow often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Not sureWhat happens when the bug occurs? Game crashes seconds after launching.What do you expect to see? The game loading in. (updated title to be more clear) - Atic

Yes i have the same problem, the support totally ignore.We pay for this game, We need a answers/any news/something.This is scandalous

First the game crashed after the character creation (i believe thats where it was loading into Story mode),Then it refused to launch at all - which i solved by deleting the dx12 cache in documents/need for speed unbound/cache.But now i try to load into the Story mode and it starts loading and immediately crashes!Even though im below minimim cpu specs i still can play every game at 60-72 fps in high-medium settings (also nfs heat).Crash occurs when playing from hdd and ssd.Also tried lower settings, disabling crossplay and data sharing. Please look into it and release a hotfix!Tried to upload the crashdump file but your "upload-script" wont let me XDDDIntel I5 4670AMD RX 570 8gb (latest driver)8gb Ram (with a hugh 24gb pagefile on ssd - games using up to 12gb ram run absolutely fine with this "workaround")

This works and lets me into the menu, but just like you said story mode crashes every time.You are probably right, this game does need a patch already

Game goes not even launchI have tried reinstalling pretty much everything (short of windows again)I cant download on EA AppI am not getting any errors so I do not know what to doplease help

You need to delete the .PCDX12 file in your Documents\Need For Speed(TM) Unbound\cache folder. I have to do this every single time otherwise the game won't relaunch.
Still, story mode keeps crashing for me, so I can't play the game.
This game needs a patch already.

@Gamma-Wolf-515 Do you get an error message? Can you post your dxdiag details and any steps you've taken on troubleshooting?

No error messages and I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game, but as said from the replies of others deleting the PCDX12 file in Documents/Need For Speed(TM) Unbound/cache does allow me to launch the game but loading story mode leads to a crash every time, at least for me.
