Do not buy if WIN 7 --
Will not launch and unlikely to be fixed by EA. As it comes down to something EPIC put in the new unreal engine that blocks Win 7 and only works on Win 10. I doubt EA will ever fix this. I should have known based on requirements but wanted to be sure because technically there is no reason this game would not function properly on Win 7.
I'm refunding, don't waste your money.

How about you stop using an unsupported ancient OS?

Guess reading is not your strongest Suit? Since the requirements for the game clearly state "OS: Windows 10 64-bit" No windows 7 list. Further more windows 7 support for anything end Jan 21, 2020.

op,

I mean its right there in the system specs, How long should devs support an 11 year old discontinued os for with all the issues that brings? Would you have the same stance if someone with intel hd graphics posted in here complaning it wont run on his sub par dell laptop from 2007?

I mean...no ♥♥♥♥? It's an unsupported OS and says right on the page that it's not gonna meet the requirements.

Using Windows 7 today is like using Windows XP in 2012. Just upgrade. It's still free.

I wasn't crying and in the original post said how I read the requirement but I wanted to try anyway, good try roasting me. I posted to try and be helpful to other win 7 users and everyone just complains about me, how about you don't post if it makes u so upset I still like windows 7.
Also anyone with win 7, there could be a workaround with reshade(its posted in this forum also) but I do not trust reshade bc escape from tarkov will ban your account for using reshade nowadays, so putting that in my direct X is sketchy at best.
The author of this thread has indicated that this post answers the original topic.
