Star Wars Battlefront 2 (2017) gives black screen for 3 seconds, then crashes

[facekicker69]

When starting the game, I am given a window (attached) that is all black for about 3 seconds. Then it crashes and opens origin as if nothing happened. I unfortunately don't get an error message, but the game files do include crash dumps. I'm running windows 7 64bit with updated drivers. Any help would be appreciated, thank you in advance.

Hello @facekicker69

seems like your pc should be able to run the game. Please try repairing the game by right clicking on it in origin and pressing "repair game". When its finished, try launching it again.

If you need further assistance, please feel free to ask inhere.

I'm running into the same issue and have tried almost everything and still the issue continues. I'm running windows 7 64, Here is a list of what I've tried but did not work.

- updating Origin

- updating the game

- the odd time it worked for more than a few seconds I lowered my graphics settings

- checked and updated my windows 7 at the Microsoft website

- uninstall/reinstall

- turning off my antivirus/firewall protection

- went into boot options for the game and ensured the DX12 was set to 0

there is the odd time the game works but it takes more than 13 startups and fingers crossed to work before it crashes again.

I have repaired it twice and the problem continues to stick around. Are there anymore recommendations you have other than reinstalling BF2 (as I have slow internet, I want to leave it as a last resort)? Thank you in advance

Ok i was having the same issues, played for an hour than came back to play the game again and kept getting a black screen with sound.

My fix

go to documents folder located and delete the battlefront ll folder there.

the game recreates the file as needed

now the game is working again.

As for you EA! You guys are bad man, it is not ok be selling us games that have these issues, I have this issue now with both startwars games and battlefield
