Cannot Play Game
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

I click either on the desktop shortcut or the game in my Steam library. The Steam "Preparing to launch..." window pops up for a split second and then disappears. The game does not open, not even the start-up loading screen. No error window comes p and no Crash Report is made. The game is basically unplayable as of now and I have no idea what is happening. It happens whether I am using the Dev version or the regular version. I am using the Full Alpha, running it on Windows 7.

in case that did fix your problem, then you must close this ticket.

Please try use -nobenchmark command line option.
Right click on Arma III in your Steam Library>Properties>Set launch options

Can you try kill all unnecessary applications before start Arma III?
Some programs (Zone Alarm for example) can block start of Arma III.

same problem, tried -nobenchmark,restarting system, i dont have zone alarm

Do you have still this issue in Beta build?
