Seriously what is this the customers are suppose to solve the problem themselves ? How could EA be so bad !! It pisses me off I bought all the dead space games and now I can't even see the conclusion and EA staff doesn't seems to care it's just incridible !!!

I know this is ages was ages ago and all but can you tell me how to change my settings without entering the game? From outside the game people are saying to change reso, But i can't because of the black screen!

I know this is even more ages ago, but if you have a GeForce card you can change the game settings from within the GeForce Experience app.

 

For me, it was actually because I had set the display to windowed-borderless.  Resetting this in GeforceExperience to full-screen fixed the issue for me

I actually fixed this problem and decided to post the solution:

  • Change your resolution in Windows to 720p. (which the game tries to launch in)
  • Go in game to Video settings, set it to Windowed mode at 720p.
  • Change your resolution in Windows to what it normally is; 1080p for me.
  • In Video settings, change your resolution to normal. (1920x1080 for me)
  • If you don't want to actually play in Windowed, set it to borderless.

Hope this helps someone.
