I have win7.Patch 1.07 worked fine .I upgraded to v1.08 & the game wont start. It said I was missing MSVCP140.dll.I downloaded it & installed it but now it says it wont start correctly & the error code is a lot of zeros followed by an xnumber. If the patch requires new system updates a direct link to download them would be very helpful.
I am a senior & not that experienced with system files so any help is appreciated. I would like my game working properly.
Thanks.

Whatever operation system you have, your computer needs Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 redistributable, 32 bit to run the game; or you can install both 32 and 64 bit. This is a known issue and was detected during the beta tests. The dll file alone does not solve the problem.
You can get the redistributable from here; it is the Microsoft site. I think it is x86 you need but you can install both just in case

If you have a later version of Visual C++ that does not let you install the 2015 version you will need to uninstall the later version and install the one from 2015.
See you on the battlefield.

I had the same problem, because strangely the C++ Installer stated I had a more up-to-date version. Yet on checking I did not! My latest version was 2010.
So, thanks. By downloading the 2015 version via the link above, the problem is resolved.
Many thanks.
