  • Same here.

    In their notes, one of the tips to help is this:

    Users that have experienced problems with getting an error indicating a lack of Vulkan compatible devices have reported that in some cases removing "OpenCL™, OpenGL®, and Vulkan® Compatibility Pack" can resolve the issue.

    I can't locate any of those things on my computer though? Need more direction.

  •  I am also still having this issue after the update. I do not have the compatibility pack installed and the game goes to a black screen for a couple seconds and then just crashes and takes me back to the EA App. I get no error message at all.

  • Hi there I’m still having this issue even after updating to this new patch, can someone help please as it’s getting frustrating now
