CoD Black Ops 3 does not start - it may be because of it

Here's what you can do if Black Ops 3 doesn't start:

First, make sure your PC meets the system requirements for the game.
You need a 64-bit operating system with at least 2.9 GHz clock frequency and 6 GB RAM. You should also have 1 GB of graphics memory.
You also need a permanent internet connection to play the game successfully.
If you meet these criteria, you may need the latest driver for your graphics card. You can get this either via Windows Update or via the manufacturer's website. Here you can find the drivers for Nvidia and ATI graphics cards.
The DirectX should also be up to date. This is usually installed automatically by the Windows Update.
Change to the installation folder of Call of Duty and open the "players" folder there. Open the "config.ini" with a text program. Change the value for "WorkerThreads" from "4" to "2" and save.
Many problems can also be solved by updating the game. So make sure the game is up to date.
In some cases it can help if you reinstall the game. Manually delete leftover files and folders after uninstalling.
