I'm having an issue launching the game.... specifically it won't launch at all via Steam.
I downloaded the game yesterday a few hours before release, but never started it. Later, it went through the release updating. However, when I try to start the game, it says 'Preparing to Launch - Step 1 of 1' in the Steam dialog box (normal behavior for most games I've played), and then that disappears and nothing happens. If I try again, I get the spinning windows circle on my mouse tooltip that indicates the system is processing, but after a second that goes away, and nothing happens.
Steps I've take thus far...
- Restarted - didn't fix it
- Deleted local game content and reinstalled - didn't fix it, same behavior.
- Verified integrity of local game cache
Not sure what to try next, and I don't have any problems running any other game on my system. Specs:
