@pale_rider_tv hmm, do you have valorant installed? I ask because that has bricked peoples pcs and operates at kernal level, might be worth running a SFC scan now to check for violations

So anyone havung this issue post some things in response to this post please it may help them get it working, rather than specs because we have seen its both amd and nvidia gpu and cpu having the problem, any things like valorant installed on peoples pc? because that has some deep level of permissions. Also what type of AV are people using, im on avg. Also ive seen this mentioned on a few people talking about different drives, is anyone still having the issue with both the launcher and the game on the same drive?

@pale_rider_tv yeah it's sad really, very disappointing. I am tech support for a world leading accountancy software and it's very strange that there only real reply is go through troubleshooting steps (generic ones at that) completey acceptable if its a hand full of cases, but this is quite clearly a bigger issue with the file structure or permissions on files. I will be sitting down tonight because i will have hours to kill if i find a fix for it i will be back. Thank god i didn't buy this game outright.

@sixpounder85 yeah exact same here, not really acceptable from AAA studio. Clearly some fixes work but it shouldn't be at the stage where people have to do this, i thought 13 hours at work might be enough time for them to figure something out but looks like i was wrong.

Yeah on Splash screen art with the 2 axes logo, ive updated drivers, disabled AV, ran as admin, verified game file, reinstalled and nothing! hopefully it will be fixed after 13 hours of work!

I have the exact same on PC, wont launch at all, ive verivied game files, re installed, diabled AV, updated drivers, ran the exe as admin and still nothing, not a good look and such a shame as i was looking forward to this!
