Cities Skylines wont launch!

★★★ Newbie

Cities: Skylines seemingly crashes within moments of me launching it.  I see the icon flash in my taskbar showing the app is opening ever so briefly, and then it vanishes.  Fully deleted, redownloaded, problem persisted for a few more attempts and then seemingly corrected.  I got a little bit of play time out of the game and then the next day it was back to the same issue.  I will not continue to delete and reinstall just so I can hope that it launches that one out of a hundred attempts.

 

Fully up to date

no mods

multiple DLC's purchased

running on Windows 10 (also fully updated)

Computer far and away exceeds the recommended specs

Played perfectly fine 72hrs ago

 

Two entries into the Origin Error Reporter and not so much as a confirmation email for the errors reported.  Also no contact from Origin on the issue.

 

Please help!

Hey @RBob hopefully it's working for you now and it doesn't decide to stop again.

 

As the game is not an EA title there's not a lot we can do support wise beyond basic troubleshooting. As such if the issue continues  then it's no harm taking a look at Paradox Interactive's support which you can find here: https://support.paradoxplaza.com/hc/en-us/categories/200224688-Cities-Skylines

@Canukked how long did you spend in game before the problem, and when you begin to play and had problems was it the same day?

Hey @Canukked as Cities: Skyline is not an EA game then the support we can offer is limited.

 

Can you grab us a DxDiag so that I can take a look at your system: https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/pc/how-to-gather-dxdiag-information/
