The game starts only on the second attempt

[kukuba4ka]

Hello! I purchased Battlefield 2042 about three months ago. Since the time of purchase, I have consistently encountered a recurring issue that remains unresolved even after patches and updates. The problem is that the game doesn't launch on the first attempt. Here's how my game session typically begins: I start the game, wait for about a minute, a black screen appears, which persists for a few more minutes. Then, a screen appears, similar to the one usually seen when connecting to network services, but without any text—just changing images. After that, I simply close the game using Alt + F4, and upon reopening, it launches successfully.

I kindly request assistance in resolving this issue because clearing the cache does not help, and performing this ritual before every gaming session significantly diminishes my enthusiasm to play.

i had a similar problem, got as far as the black screen, only fix i found was installing it on a different drive, it started after an overclock cpu crash
