Hey everyone, I'm bringing this up because my issue starts with the game title. I get the coalition logo without any issues, but then the screen flashes and changes size, followed by a freeze. After trying to restart both the game and my computer, nothing seems to fix it. I have the newest NVIDIA drivers and Windows updates installed, so I'm not sure what's wrong. Right now, I'm using a Lenovo Y700 with an Intel i7 6700HQ, 8GB DDR4 RAM, GTX 960 graphics, and 4GB of memory. Here’s a specific image for clarity:

Proceed with the update first. If issues persist, attempt to reinstall the game.

I've read the first time you have to wait 48h, don't turn off your computer !!

Currently I'm reinstalling the game and I'm hoping it functions properly this time. I haven't encountered anyone with this issue before, and I believe the hardware might be the cause. A friend runs the game on a Pentium and a GT740.

I am having this issue currently. It makes it to that loading screen and then freezes. @belfouf are you serious about leaving it up for 48 hours? I wish there was a solution for this.

No problem at all, just kidding. Thanks for understanding. Did you purchase the DVD or the digital version? These issues often occur due to a damaged installation file.

I purchased the digital edition for Xbox One, which provides the image format. It seems I might need to re-download it later? Yikes, 73 gigabytes left.
