Product: Battlefield 1

Summarize your bug after the update for giants shadow, the game hangs and won't even load to the main window. Just a black screen with press shift f1 on it the image seams to be frozen when pressing alt tab or any key to go to windows the game updates the image but is still frozen (the game still works and makes sounds in backround exept the image in broken/frozen ).using the windowed mode seams to work but the bug still persists if going back to full screen in game or in geforce experience
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? start the game
What happens when the bug occurs? game does not load
Please select your region Europe
In what game mode did the bug occur? Conquest
AMD or Nvidia Model Number gtx960 2gb
Enter RAM memory size in GB 16gb

After this last update the game will not load even to the main selection windows I just get a black screen and a hung status wheel at the top right and the Press Shift F1 at the bottom right.

@DonCornholium Hi, can you try a repair if you're still seeing this? You can get this option if you right-click the game panel in origin. 

 

If the issue persists can you try deleting your settings file? It should create new settings from a default template. 

If you go to My Documents\Battlefield 1\settings, can you try moving PROFSAVE_Profile to another location, the desktop is usually the best location.

 

 Then start the game up and see if the issue persists? If so, you can move the file back to its original location. 

Thanks.

Wonderful, thanks for coming back. Can I check which step worked, if you're still around? I'd like to see whether to zone in on the repair or the settings file reset if we see such issues in future.
