Failure to Launch

[Spintobo]

Game wont launch past the easycheat loading screen, which is weird since mcc uses easycheat and I have no issues running that game. Any advice?

[johnnykol]

I too am stuck

It's like they didnt bother getting the driver signed before launch. Reboot didnt fix it either.

the same here ... fraking anticheat error message

same here

Same. EAC boots and then the game crashes after hanging for ~30 seconds. I'm on the latest NVIDIA drivers from Aug 22.

launching offline allowed me to get into the game. Not sure if online functionality will work till it gets fixed.

How'd you launch offline?

TEMPORARY FIX:

it looks like a problem with anti cheat, you can follow the same steps as this elden ring EAC bypass method: https://wiki.speedsouls.com/eldenring:EAC_Bypass

1. Create a file in the Game folder (for me, it's C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ARMORED CORE VI FIRES OF RUBICON\Game) named steam_appid.txt
2. In the contents of the file, put 1888160 which is the app id of the game
3. Launch via the executable directly to avoid EAC

Ideally we can figure out why EAC is misbehaving in the next few days, but in the meantime, at least this lets you play offline

Didn't launch offline... Just opened steam and launched normally.

Isn't an EAC issue for me. I just uninstalled gpu drivers and ran the game to test it... Got a whopping 4 FPS but it did launch

Same problem here

[spilledpizza]

Fix that worked for me - Exit completely out of steam, then go to command prompt(cmd in windows search bar)
type in there "ipconfig /flushdns"
Reopen steam and should be resolved!

Got a 0xc0000142 error after the EAC loading window, but could still launch the game in offline mode through the exe-file. Got it fixed by installing a Visual C++ multipack. Apparently the game didn't install the required stuff beforehand.

Try this method, It fixed my 0xc0000142 problem
