Just never launches, goes from “playing now” to “play” and nothing happens. AVX not supported by my CPU tho.
This is just damn sad.
I pre purchased the game and have been really looking forward to play it.
Since it was released, I’ve uninstalled it 2 times, cleaned my registry, updated all drivers and Windows, ran a ( sfc /scannow), a chkdsk, and still the same.
Intel 980, Same problem as everyone else. “play” turns to “now playing” which just turns back to “play”. Can’t launch the game.

Same issue, nothing happens just goes from “Launching” to “Playing Now” and back to “Play”. Beta worked fine, CPU i7-920 does not support AVX. Windows event logs has errors.
Edit: Thanks for the fast replies. It appears my issue is unrelated though I am still unable to resolve it. If you have any ideas please assist.
Like some of you when I start the game it is nothing but a black screen. But I hear the sound of the opening. Then it just crashes. It repeats this no matter what troubleshooting I have attempted and I am unable to see any visuals when the game attempts to open before crashing.
I use an i7-7700k , can anyone confirm this processor does support AVX if that’s indeed what we’re concluding the issue being from?
Appreciate you taking the time to address the issue, even with your limited insight. We look forward to an update soon. Thank you!
You processor supports AVX:
Intel® SSE4.1, Intel® SSE4.2, Intel® AVX2
I don’t think this is an AVX issue. My processor also supports it and it’s crashing.
seems to be a different problem. the AVX problem is that the game is not starting at all. your cpu supports AVX.
Your issue is different. We cannot even start the game, we don’t see a black screen at all or anything which looks like the game is starting.
Your CPU has AVX

My guess is that it will take at least a few days before this is resolved. I already called into work and let them know I am cancelling my vacation days for tomorrow and Monday. I should have known better than to think this launch would go smoothly.
