I Am Having The Same Problem. My Specs is A 2011 Toshiba C655-S5307 Satellite. I Am Using Windows 7 Home Premium 32 Bit.
could you try disabling your internet connection and try to start the game then? We’re currently investigating an issue with proxy settings that might cause the game not to start properly and this test would help us.
Did just that on my Notebook, still the same result.
Seconded. Same result. Windows 7, Lenovo laptop, tried the demo, got the same result. Tried while disconnected, same result.
