Updated to 5.2, booted up the game and… What in the hell is this?!

THIS IS SPARTAAA!! :smiley:

Upon a game of guessing, it seems we have to click in the left button (hidden behind this giant wall of code) when the game boots up. It then start a UI update and auto-fixes itself.

You guys who jumped early to play the new patch seem to be dining in hell now!

how much big is the 5.2 update ?

Just to be safe I had someone at home boot up origin so when I will return from work it will be done (hopefully after 5 hours)

My experience is that when you are greeted with SPARTA!!! you have to press the left button to update the UI and things will be back to normal:


A restart of the game should also work.

PC - 12GB
PS4 - 6.7GB
Xbox One - 7.3GB

there is the same problem on ps4 on the first reboot after the new update. choose the box on the left, I believe this will fix this bug …

DICE you are the “BEST…ia”

Clicking the left button doesn´t work for me (PC)… :frowning:

Restart and try again. If that doesn’t work try repairing the game in Origin.

Worked after repairing the game. Thanks!

A thousand developers of the DICE empire descend upon you! Our coding errors will blot out the menu screen!

I fixed this on PC without repairing, just press left arrow and then space and it will update and fix the problem

what do you do on ps4?

why do you have to repair a game after an update? lol

i’m not a coder , i thought dice was

we should just start playing with army men again

You don’t. However, hard drives, file transfers, networks and file systems are not without fault and whenever there’s an update for any application these faults happen for someone and they have to repair, reinstall, fix their hard drives or something else to fix it. This is why I suggested it. Electronics, hardware and software are never perfect.
If you want to “lol” some more you can go to the Steam forums and find thousands of other examples.

i don’t understand the “lol” sarcasm , does it bother you that i have to laugh at everything dice does? or should i just do it in silence and not post it like a good battlefield boy?

If you bump into this screen when you complete the update - restart the game. You’ve likely somehow missed the UI Update that prompts you before you reach the main menu.

Im on xb have restarted and still cant do nothing
