Re: have a new patch and then black screen can't play

Got this from Customer Service chat.

I check the case with our specialist team and they are aware of it as few other customers has reported this issue recently.

  • I dont know what the problem is, but I've restared the game a few times, played a quick round and have not had any more trouble since the re-install. I had the same exact problem as the rest of you, with the half-white screen for a few seconds and the courser on a black background.

    Can confirm that reinstalling works, had the same problem.

    Too bad that I spent over an hour updating windows, installing new drivers, installing media pack etc before trying to reinstall the game. I only tried repairing it a couple of times wich did nothing.

  • Well, since most people have their problem fixed with reinstalling I will give that a try too. Will give an update in 3 hours.

    Hello everyone!

    instead of re-installing the game try removing the starwarsbattlefrontii.exe file and starwarsbattlefrontii_trial.exe from the installation location and the do a repair on battlefront 2 from Origin. This solved it for me.

    Edit: credit goes to @EA_David 🙂

    Well I'm so happy I wasted 3 hours yesterday and had the help chat tell me that the problem was because of my GPU and that I should buy a new one to be able to play. (worked fine - in ultra - before the patch)

    Should have kept the chatlog. Great help and service thanks EA  (heavy sarcasm)

    Deleted the 2 files, works perfectly now BTW
