Hey Everyone,
Updating this thread, the team has released Vol 8 with various fixes. You can read the patch notes here.
I wanted to check if anyone has noticed any issues with NFS unbound after grabbing the latest update.
Cheers!

My game won't start after vol. 8 update. Either it doesn't launch at all or crashes, right after black game windows appears, with directx error (see the attatched screenshot)
I own a steam version of unbound.
What i have done so far:
- updated and reinstalled GPU drivers
- checked integrity of game files
- reinstalled the game

Hi @MPMRacing
Based on your error, can we also try the following and check if it continues to pop up when playing Unbound?
- Run the System File Checker tool, then Check for Windows and GPU updates
- Default your PC to the dedicated Graphics card: Troubleshooting Graphics issues
- If there’s an option available, try capping your frame rate. You can also enable Vertical Sync (V-Sync), to match your frame rate to your display’s refresh rate.
- Repair the game files in the EA app. Go to the Library and find your game. Click the Manage icon, then click Repair.
- Check if any background applications are stopping the EA app or your game.
- Perform a clean boot of your PC to disable background tasks that may be interfering with your game.
Thanks!

Nothing helps.The problem is still there after Vol.9 update.Only fix is to restart the PC. So every time we close the game we have to restart the PC if we want to start it again.I've come to the conclusion that the problem is in the EA launcher and not the game itself.Since the problem started I've had clean install of Win10 and multiple driver changes and neither seems to be the problem since the game still doesn't launch after the first time.
