Game Won't start.

[Moint Pan]

I tried everything after the new launcher was implemented, including but not limited to: Reinstalling the game (over three times by now), Deleting the cache in the game folder (that didn't work either.) Every single time i try to start the game it just says "Running" But the game itself never starts up, If any of you guys have insights or fixes please let me know, i have been unable to play ever since the steam transfer update.

reportedly, the new launcher across all 3 storefronts is excruciatingly slow.
clicking Launch does a brief Loading splashscreen, then nothing happens. so people click Launch again. and again. and again.
IN my experience i realized that the games were launching and starting - each with its own instance - but in minimized window view. I only discovered this because i had to alt tab for something and finally saw them. like half a dozen.
check your CTRL + SHIFT +ESC and see if there are multiple instances running to confirm if this is also in your case.
Do a complete system reboot, try to launch the game again and start looking in the background to see if it loads through.

other than that just gotta wait for Devs.

I see, thank you for taking the time to reply to my post, i didn't think anyone would take the time to reply. I will attempt the methods you have mentioned and see if it works, if it doesn't i'll just hope the launcher will be fixed by a future patch.

Upon further examination, i've discovered that the game does run in the background (the app itself along with the launcher, I checked in Task manager.) However the game itself is nowhere to be seen, I even checked with ALT + TAB. But after a while (after the launcher stops saying "running" in the little icon, the instance disappears from task manager. maybe i did something wrong or the devs messed something up but that's just my insight for now.

based on what you describe i think that you are experiencing a different issue.
unfortunately you will have to wait for the Devs.

by the way - consider installing Discord and connecting onto the Armored Warfare channel.
there, players from all storefronts are able to chat together.

Steams Discussion for armored warfare is nowhere near as active.

good luck

Oh, Thank you for your help in any case. i will try joining the discord in the near future or perhaps later, But still i thank you for your help in clarifying this issue for me.

Oh right, one more thing, is this issue you mentioned (the one i have with my game) widely known or is it obscure? i just needed to ask because im worried it won't be fixed.

ive seen half a dozen people have reported it since the last update which was.. 3 days ago, i think? i cant check discord right now. so i don't have the most current details.

by the way - you can also submit a support request ticket from the new Launcher.
It's along the Upper left corner of it "BUG REPORT" if you draw their attention to your specific issue at least you can get some traction going.

I play outside steam and am having the EXACT same issues. I sent a bug report in last week with only a response asking for my msinfo file.

It's good but also disheartening to know other people have the same issue (including myself), i had just returned to the game a few weeks back (before the transfer update) and i encountered that bug, good to know it wasn't just a "me issue", if enough people report this bug maybe we can get the devs to patch it so we can play again.

Same here.

Why am I not surprised there are major issues for steam players after this transfer to Wishlist...??

Had I not sank the cash into battle pass that I have now lost 2 weeks of time to work on, I might have been less upset.

They're doing server maintenance tomorrow, let's hope that they'll fix this bug in this next one.

Fingers crossed.

another patch and still nothing happens when I press the play button on steam

Looks like we're being left in the dark then.
