I have the same issues as some of the ones mentioned here. Initially, the game would stay on the launch screen with the logo. I uninstalled and then reinstalled the game onto my C drive (it was previously on a different ssd drive). It worked and I was able to play maybe 15 minutes of it before it started to freeze. The only option was to ctrl+alt+del and end task. After that I couldn't even get passed the menu screen. After freezing, any audio inputs to my pc were disabled and could only be enabled by restarting the system. I have once again uninstalled and reinstalled the game and have just tested it. I'm back to square one, game is freezing on menu screen and disabling my pc's audio

My drivers are up to date, I've tried verifying the game before uninstalling and reinstalling, I've tried playin offline and nothing works. It is not hardware related.

So annoyed that the game can't be refunded considering it doesn't work and I have barely played it.

@luzi88alkor thats good news! I ended up doing this as well but it didn't seem to work for me. I did end up solving the problem by swapping out my gpu (was using a 5700xt, swapped for rx580), but I am guessing a lot of people don't have that option.

@ur_mate $20 more and absolutely no chance of a refund
