Same, also have the infinite loading at the start of mission 9. I know my specs are very much at the low end, but all the settings are cranked down to the minimum. Still nothing.

Hi, just playing the game. It is a dream game for me as I used to play xwing. Been lookiing on the net for the problem and seems EA has post that it is solved in October. I would like to point out that it HAS NOT BEEN SOLVED today in August 2021.
Lucky me i am just starting, kinda feeling sorry for those folks out there waiting a year long that it has not been solved yet. And by the comments on the net, there are quite many of them.
Please fix this. No I dont want a refund. I want you to FIX this.
