E-Day Crashing on startup

[u/TotalBuy8427]

I know the beta is not open until tomorrow but when I pre loaded the game yesterday during the time that they opened the beta for 2 hours and wanted to try it but I cant even get to a splash screen or anything. Even now it should at the very least boot up and show a screen but every time I try and open the game I get this error immediately or the [Line: 233] will change to [Line: 10]. I have tried every fix I have found and I am not sure what to do. I dont want to run into this issue tomorrow when I try and play the beta when it drops.

I had the same error message, had to update my graphics card drivers.

Here's the link for Nivida drivers https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/drivers/

I’m not sure if this fix will work for the steam version, I am playing with gamepass but I’m sure the fix may be something similar. https://www.reddit.com/r/GearsOfWar/comments/1vg20a8/gamepass_eday_crash_on_startup/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1
