Game Not Launching

When I run the game from Steam it will show me the EAC splash for a minute and then after it closes the game will launch in the background, I can see it in Task Manager and it is stuck at 300mb, steam also shows it as running, but there is no game to be seen.

When I run the game from the shipping.exe I can enter the game but it forces me to quit cause you obviously need to run it from steam so it runs the anti cheat first.

Here is a list of links of posts and reviews of other people who had the same problem, all recent.

This proves it is NOT a technical issue and is in fact an actual bug experienced by other people.
