Game not launching

[Vareska]

If I open the game through steam or the desktop icon or the exe file, the game just does nothing. No loading screen, nothing. It just closes itself without even opening. This is the second time I've experienced this, last time was the patch 3 days ago, it broke my game for 24 hours then it started working randomly. These devs are so ♥♥♥♥ they don't even seem realise or acknowledge they are breaking the game for a large portion of the player base.

Same for a lot of people here. In my case game worked just fine until the season 37 or whats it called update. Since it updated, game wont launch at all.

Worst thing is neither of the workarounds or fixes I found either here or elsewhere work.
Yes I did all of the things suggested by developer posts and community posts alike to no success plus a couple of things of my own design to no success.
The fact that the devs ignore the launching issue, does not shine a very good light on them.

Anyway this is clearly an issue on the software side of things and clearly on the developers side.

Forget about me ever buying Forza Horizon 5. Not with this approach from the "tripple A industry". lol what a joke...

Maybe it was your internet connection or the steam servers were bad in your region at that time
