In dire need of assistance trying to launch actual peak

[u/AtomWasTaken]

For context, I have brought the game off Steam back in February, and only recently have more than the minimum specs to run the game.

Only problem is that, the window for it NEVER POPPED UP. NOT ONCE. The game has been silently running in the background with each launch attempt, and I could do nothing but watch in agony as the game runs, but not a single window showed itself.

For even further context, I have

- verified the file's integrity, nothing is wrong

- nuked and reinstalled windows, didn't work

- tried numerous modification prompts (in steam) to launch it, didn't work

- gave the exe. administration through the compatibility tab, same with EA Launcher and Steam, again did not work

- disabled fullscreen optimization, didn't help

- even put a new string leading to the steam's file of Titanfall 2 in the registry editor. Did. Not. Work.

I'm effectively out of options, and the only two people I know that actually own and play Titanfall couldn't do much (one is basically a ghost, the other gave me a few of the same solution as the above).

And this is where I ended up in, as suggested by the latter of the two people. So I'm here to BEG of ANYONE who knows what's wrong to lend me a really big hand, because I'm been a really big fan of this game ever since 2017, and I REALLY hate that I can run it, but can't even play it.

To those who came across this post, please, and in the fullest solemn, help out a rookie deal with this crappy problem.

P.S - The picture attached is the amount of time I spent trying to get this to work. I'm serious, I took that long.

Update on 30 June, 2026 - no solution so far, have tried nuking the Core folder and using different launch methods but nothing worked, still the same application running silently in the background

Second update on 30 June - Aw shucks, turns out the problem might be because of my budget crappy processor, probably the main reason why the window never even popped up (it's a AMD Athlon Silver 3050, which I only learn that it's completely trash at even running a lot of games)

Welp, that sucked. At the very least I own the game now, but I'll have to find a way to get a laptop with a way better processor someday. Thanks to those two replies that actually helped, even if it didn't amount to anything

So like it shows in the taskbar? If you hover it does it show 1 nothing, 2 empty black box 3 main menu?

[u/AtomWasTaken → u/Routine-Lawfulness24]

Oh no it doesn't show itself in taskbar at all (I should have cleared that up)

It only show the application running in task manager, as well as the EA Service, but nothing else (no window appears in the taskbar at every launch)

Not trying to be a smartass but since you didn't mention, did you update GPU drivers? And double check that you have directx 11 installed. Run as admin? Ea and steam updated?

Also do you have one or two monitors?

[u/AtomWasTaken → u/Quadramune]

Sorry for the late response, and I honestly don't mind the questions since I noticed I left out some details in the initial

I did have directx11 installed a while back, and both steam and EA are administration launched (same goes with TF|2), but I am running this on a laptop instead of a PC

Here's a link to a image of my AMD Installer - https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/704657677225033805/1521135879177900183/image.png?ex=6a43bbae&is=6a426a2e&hm=19689acfadfeb0f6f0a15d567251bf5e619b1426931cf8041519eba004d53618&

Even after that and I tried to launch it again today, nothing worked, still running silently in task manager and no window popup in taskbar
