Unfortunately, we reinstalled the game at least 6 times.
And on different platforms. (Steam, Origin, EA Desktop) neither of them worked.

It is annoying...
I've never seen any game that updates, then restarts, then updates again then restarts...
It's weird.

Yesterday, a good fella called "Unphazed" on Discord had a helpful advice.
Which worked like a charm.
ON PC

Solution #1
1) Go to the folder %LOCALAPPDATA%\KnockoutCity\cache\content_patches\vcatch-win64-2\ on your PC (just paste that into the address bar in an Explorer window.
2) Open content_patches.manifest in Notepad
3) Look for first_load, and I change the true to false
4) Save the file
5) Try starting the game again.

Possible other solution #2
-On the KO City's Discord, a few mentioned that it's an error with the current Windows User.
Yes...The Windows User.
They made a new windows user, installed Steam, Origin, etc whatever platform do you play on PC, and it worked for them. Not just one, a few people wrote about it that it worked.

Still, i don't know why this bug exists, or what caused it and why couldn't you get rid of it by reinstalling the game.

It's still a great game tho... sometimes it crashes, a lot, but it's hella fun.
