Spoke too early, started doing the same thing after I restarted my computer.
Avast is the problem, when I originally tested renaming the game folder on documents, I also disabled Avast. When I restarted the computer the problem started again because Avast wasn't enabled, I tried putting the game folder in the Avast exclusions but it doesn't make any difference, It has to be disabled for the game to work properly.
EA Staff (Retired)Hey @B26354
I'm happy to hear that you've managed to figure this out yourself. Unfortunately, some antivirus programs are not "best friends" with Origin or our games ☹️

I did the same thing, but still did not work. I don't have any anti-virus programs on my computer (for reasons) including Windows Defender since I have it disabled. So I'm out of luck here unless the game gets fixed.
Edit: What is your boot options?
This problem is very elusive, after a while started again even with the antivirus off, now is working with the antivirus on, so, I'm not sure, maybe it's on the server side. Here's my boot options, nothing special:
GstRender.EnableDx12 0
GstRender.FullscreenEnabled 1
GstRender.FullscreenRefreshRate 60.000000
GstRender.FullscreenScreen 0
GstRender.ResolutionHeight 1080
GstRender.ResolutionWidth 1920
GstRender.WindowBordersEnable 1
