Avowed won't Launch

[elfstick]

Hi all,

Avowed won't launch for me. The launch art pops up for a bit and then just goes away without the game launching. No error code or anything. My specs are below but should run this game pretty easily:

Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 14700F

NVIDIA(R) GeForce RTX(TM) 4070 SUPER 12GB GDDR6X

32 GB RAM

I updated my Nvidia drivers and have tried reinstalling the file to no effect. I've also tried "-dx11" and "-dx12" in launch options on steam. Any other ideas?

Won't let me even install so, consider yourself lucky?

I'm certain, as with just about all initial launches, there is ...stuff to fix.

Did anyone beta?

Having the same issue but on the xbox store i do have the premium upgrade

I've tried every workaround that i know, like repairing the game and the xbox store, uninstalling and reinstalling but nothing will work, it just pops the launch art for a few seconds and goes away and nothing happens

I'm getting the error seen here when I go to launch the game. I've tried everything support has asked so far and no luck.

My game wont launch either with a 9800x3d 32 gb of ram 6200mhz and a rtx 4080, on steam. It really sad to encounter this issue when paying that much just to play early without any upcoming DLC in the deal. Hope to have a reply from you guys, cause right now it smell like a refund. Furthermore the game act like it is running after the long script GamingRepair.PROGRAM ended but still no image.

Hello - I have the same issue. I tried it on the Xbox PC app and it won't launch. Basically, it opens the pop-art, like if starting to load, then it closes without any visible error on screen. This happens every single time without exceptions and fails at the same point. I then went to Steam, bought the premium edition and tested this without luck - same issue.

I've tried repairing, re-installing, restarting xbox services, clean boot, installation in different SSD, updated GPU drivers, updated BIOS, updated Windows, tried on Steam, disabled firewalls, running as administrator, etc. No other ideas at the moment, other games run fine on both Xbox PC app and Steam.

Specs:

• CPU: Core i9-12900K
• GPU: RTX 4080 Super
• DRAM: 32GB
• OS: Windows 11 (ver 23H2)

This is exactly what's happening to me. Hoping Obsidian gets out a patch soon...

I first tried to launch the game via battle.net after installing it there.  I decided to try and launch it in compatibility mode, not launching it in full screen etc, it worked initially I was able to play the game to where your just about getting on the boat with the prisoner in the beginning. It then hung there on loading. Which was very frustrating. I am playing on PC, with 32GB 6800mhz ram, Intel 13700k  and RTX4090 graphics card.

For some reason It would get stuck on the shading screen never getting past it, it would get close but then just hang. I decided to uninstall it and install it on the xbox app for pc. However after it downloaded , the pop art appears, screen goes black and I get the shader warning.

This is what pops up   it did it initially on the battle.net install, but as Ive explained above, I was able use compatibility mode. I tried it again after installing via battle.net again and it wont work, same issue as on the xbox app for pc, nothing seems to work.

For those of us in Early Access we have paid a lot of money for this game, and those 5 days early access are meaningless unless you get a patch out so we can you know, actually play the game we have bought.  Ignoring this issue until launch day on Feb 18 is just utterly wrong. We bought the game to play the early access and when we cant and the developer seems to be completely ignoring us, it doesnt bode well for the future. Please, please fix the game launching, and also the controller  x and y axis, its awful
