Hi, just letting you all know I had the same problem. In early February I was playing Battlefront 2 single player campaign on PC. The game froze then crashed, my PC restarted and my monitor was never the same. I have a Monoproce Dark Matter, 34" Ultrawide QHD. After the crash the color changed and became very dull, as if the saturation was diminished. I called Monoprice (the manufacturer) and they have no idea what happened or how to fix it so I did return the monitor as it's very new and still under warranty. I'm hoping they replace the monitor. Needless to say, I won't be playing Battlefront 2 any longer. This is the most severe bug/issue I've ever encountered with PC gaming and if it's a problem with the game itself, EA needs to address it immediately.
Hey @bkenny01 this issue is generally caused by a cable or issue with the monitor and not by a game.

Hi Darko. This is definitely not a problem with the cable, I tried other cables and had the same problem. And now I see it's most likely not a problem with the monitor either. I received a replacement monitor from Monoprice, same exact model. So I set it up with my PC and much to my dismay it had the same dreaded "grey filter!" Based on this and the other testimonials, it's almost certainly a problem with this game and EA seriously needs to address it. This is the worst "bug" I have ever encountered as it not only effects the game, but the user's hardware as well.
I went back through this thread and read what one person said about HDR. I noticed that HDR was turned on in my system display settings, so I turned it off and the grey filter disappeared. So this seems to be a solution. But will this effect the graphics and visuals during gaming? I'm still able to turn on HDR from the monitor menu and it seems to work normally. I greatly appreciate any advice.

I found this related article but it only refers to HDR in videos, not games.

Hey @bkenny01 this is a system issue rather than a game one. You will need to go through you system and monitor settings and try changing them till you find the best for your setup. If having an issue with how HDR content is displaying then you can disable it.
