You might want to check the FAQ on EA forums.

Run as Admin did it for me.

By updating WIndows and GPU drivers I close out those, game wouldn't boot.

After that I started one by one disable programs that start in boot. I found culprit and for some reason "EarTrumpet" (3rd party volume program for W10) blocks game from starting. After I disabled it and booted PC game worked.

I hope conflict isn't there once release hits.

Got my email at like 1am this morning, downloaded the playtest on Origin and I've been waiting since like 8am this morning.

That's the Halo Infinite flight, AoE4 beta, B4B beta, and now 2042 playtest.

I am captain game tester.

Lowkey hyped as fuck to play this in an hour though, literally going to get zero work done this afternoon.

Is it in an hour? I thought it was right now? Must be a time zone thing.

I sure hope nothing leaks. I certainly would not want to see a couple of minutes of gameplay of this game...

Or, maybe, just maybe, it's designed around the hours that DICE Sweden are in the office? Smh.
Man, offtopic, but I would SHIT MY PANTS if I was to release an alpha/beta/final version of such a big online game and you had to keep control on it at the office. Like, looking graphs and hoping everything goes fine.

DICE are obviously experts by now, but still lol elenarie

If anyone on PC is trying to launch the game and just gets a black screen, force Origin to update the game and it should work.

I'm in now, but like everyone else I'm unable to find a game, just returns a placeholder error.

I'm getting black screen on 3080 + OLED CX, updating didn't help.
Playing now on 2080 + 1440p144hz computer monitor, and I'm stuck at 30 fps no matter what the settings?
