game crashes on startup

at this point I don’t even want to play the flight, i waited two days to even get sent an invite and now the game goes into the black loading screen on startup then after a few seconds it just crashes, updated drivers, windows is up to date, no controller plugged in, steam input enabled. if there is any more weird solutions people have found let me know. its getting pretty ridiculous that there are so many problems already, even for the people that are able to play. it looked good in the first flight, which I also didn’t get to play, except for the AI being weird. but I am steadily loosing faith in 343, I’ve put in a support ticket but they’re just radio silent about all the issues like 42% of players have been facing. please make sure the game works before you release it 343.

yeah i tried looking for that but i am not good with computers, i use an external hd, but if the flight crashes then i cant even play the game then? cause other games run fine even cyberpunk runs decently
