Driver issues w/BattleFront 2 if you are BootCamping

The requirement for the most recent AMD drivers prevents the game from running on a brand new MacBook Pro with Win 10 Boot Camped. Hopefully this will get cleared up but if this is your only machine, don't waste money until this is resolved. 

Messed around by removing drivers, cleaning up drivier install with AMDs tools and installed the most recent Bootcamp drivers 17.10. The control panel version is 17.6 however the driver version is now 17.10. Still reporting that the drivers are 17.6 and the game will not launch. Looks like a bug,

Are there EA people on these forums to help out?

  • First, I should apologize for my terrible English as it's not my first language.

    To this problem, the easiest solution would be, I personally think, to change the driver version through registry editor.

    Open Run, and type in "regedit" to open Registry Editor. Then go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Class\{4d36e968-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}\0000

    Under this you will find RadeonSoftwareVersion, and change it to 17.11.2. I didn't test which one exactly Battlefront 2 check before lunching. I personally changed DriverVersion to 22.19.171.257, RadeonSoftwareVersion to 17.11.2, and DriverDate to 11-16-2017.

    By the way, I'm running the BootCamp driver issued this June or July, I don't remember.
