STAR WARS: Battlefront II crashing at random, unplayable
Every time I try to play Battlefront 2, it will crash. Sometimes it will crash in menu within a minute of launching the game. I am usually able to join a multiplayer game for up to thirty seconds before it crashes, but on loading the campaign it will crash on the loading screen.
For a while (since after the Ewok Hunt game mode was in then removed from the game) every time I tried to launch the game, it would crash in the initial loading screen. Yesterday, I uninstalled & reinstalled Origin and Battlefront 2 multiple times to no avail. Everything was up to date except a small Windows (I'm using Windows 10) update. After I updated that, I got to the point I'm at now. My PC meets the system requirements to run the game. I turned the graphic settings down to low, Direct X12 off, but that did not solve anything. I have tried right-clicking and hitting "Repair" and "Update Game" but that has not helped. I have run both Origin and Battlefront 2 as administrator, to the same sad result.
It would be nice to find out I didn't waste $60 on this game.
Hey Nu1l, try these fixes, some are copy and paste from other threads but 4 and 5 helped mine out,
1. Allow Origin and Battlefront through your antivirus (doubt it helps)
2. Verify your game files via steam or origin.
3. Update your Operating System, and then make sure to check for Video driver updates.
4. Put the root EXE file for Battlefront 2 as run as administrator (remember this)
5. If it still does NOT work. Take the run as administrator away and only have fullscreen optimizations on (THIS ACTUALLY WORKED FOR ME)After I verified the game was running like intended, I went ahead and removed the fullscreen optimizations and played the game fully.
I hope this helps quite a bit as I had to do my own testing as it was not written anywhere I've looked.
