No possibility to play offline
I don't know if this is just the beta version (cause of telemetry and stuff) but I want to make sure to give this feedback There NEEDS to be an option to go offline. That is currently not the case. Many games have offline modes and many people have bad Internet. Please Please Please, I beg you, have an offline mode in the full version.

Controller support on PC
EA has told me through different support techs that controller support is not available on Origin and EA Play - even for games that support controllers in other PC stores like Steam, Epic, UPlay, GOG, etc which even support wired and wireless PS4 controllers. It’s very strange that I can play EA games on Steam but not on their own platform. Frankly, it’s kind of absurd and embarrassing if this was my company. Am I missing something or does EA just not want our money?

Games missing from EA desktop Beta(but already purchased)
So I purchased MADDEN 21 through steam, since the game requires you to download Origin to run said game it would mean I have purchased the game. Well when I log into EA Desktop Beta it tells me I don't have games in my collection as seen below, However Madden 21 does not run properly every single time unless you open the game through the Origin Application and run it. So if my game appears in the original Origin application why doesn't it appear inside EA desktop Beta and tell me I don't own any games at all. https://prnt.sc/uwvnpj

Pop-up in Origin about EA app which can't be closed
Hi everyone. I have been playing Sims 3 through Origin for many years now, but today am having issues. When I open Origin I get a message pop up which says "The EA app is your new home for PC gaming. Now's the time to upgrade. Install the EA app and log in with your EA Account to find all your games waiting for you". As far as I can tell, there is no way of closing this message and so I can't launch/play any of my games in Origin. I have tried EA App twice now and do not want to use it as I had issues with it. I had issues downloading newly purchased games and some games would not launch at all. I will not use EA App if I can avoid it. Is there any way that I can minimise this message and continue using Origin for now?

EA Desktop can't repair downloaded game
I've downloaded Titanfall 2 tonight. Now I can't play because the game files are corrupted. I have to uninstall and download all the 48GB again because there isn't an option to check game files and repair it. Very disappointing, hope that it get this option soon or at least when out of beta.

EA Desktop client custom installation folder
Please give users the ability to change the directory where EA Desktop installs its main client. I'm not refering to the installation directory of the games themselves, rather the EA Desktop application, as some users prefer to keep their System drives clear of any unnecessary programs (such as those who have their System drives on an M.2 drive), or prefer to install them on a separate HDD/SDD for better program/app management. Having the installer automatically proceed installing upon double-clicking without prompts also presents some security issues as well.

When are achievements coming to the EA app?
EA Desktop could show some love for achievement hunters (like the Origin Points). When will the achievements appear on the client? [CM - Edited title for clarity]

Allow us to fully close program on "X" out
Add option so when we "X" out of EA Desktop, the program actually closes instead of minimizing to the system tray.

"EA" Launcher is just the most terrible launcher I have ever used
"EA" Launcher is just the most terrible launcher I have ever used (worst than Ubisoft). The worst part is that it was forced to me if I wanted to keep using the games I had on Origin. It's driving me nuts. Leave a comment/upvote to let the prog teams know.

How Do I Repair Games With EA App?
I keep getting Error Code 109. Guides say to delete "localthumbcache" and repair the game with the origin app, which is no longer possible due to EA's decision to force people to use the EA app. So I try using the EA app and I see no option to repair it. I hear someone else say I need to update the game to repair it but I see no option to do that either. I bought this game, spent actual money on it and I'm being blocked from playing it by a problem EA has created themselves. What am I supposed to do?

geforce now with EA app - need to login every time
Lately, Origin has changed for EA app. I am using geforce now to play EA games, but every time i launch the game i have to log in and give code from email/app. This problem was solved with origin app but came again with change for EA app. Can you do something about it? Every other platform works fine except EA.

KEEP EA IN OFFLINE MODE!!!
So I do not have internet access at home, and I used to play sims all day. Now I can't even play my sims, I'm just lucky to have hotspot on my phone to be able to at least start it up, which is limited. When I run out of GB for this month, I have no idea what I'm going to do... I'm so sad, and the reason I even got into the Sims was to be able to have an offline game I could immerse myself into for hours at a time. I DO PUT MY EA APP INTO OFFLINE MODE, but anytime I turn off the PC or have to reboot it, it requires internet connection to open EA therefore access to sims. So no internet connection? No sims ☹️ I honestly do not find the EA user friendly, if anything, IT IS AGAINST THE USER!

Option to invite a friend without overlay!?
I don't use origin or EA app in-game overlay. Sometimes it makes problems with game's performance. In Origin there was an option to invite a friend, without overlay -> minimize game, open Origin window, right click on a friend opens a menu and there's an invite option, also a join game option. Just got a mandatory switch to EA app. Where's the right click menu on friends in the friends list!? Thank god he's still able to use origin, so he can join from this exact menu. It's been years and this is a basic feature, which you already had with Origin. Where is the right click menu on friends - for invite game, join game, etc!!!?

Linux Support?
Will the EA Desktop have a Linux version available? If not will it at least be easier to run under a WINE prefix as Origin had a tendency to break whenever an update occured.

Filter, Hide or Remove Games From Library
Hello Community, I would like to provide some feedback about the EA Desktop Application. It would be nice to have the ability to filter, hide or completely remove games from your Library (EA Support or Self Service). The number one issue that I have noticed on all game launchers is the lack of an option to remove games, especially when they're demos, betas or just no longer available. I'm sure I'm not the only one who likes to see this stuff in their game library. I believe that EA Desktop should do something like this. It would be a missed opportunity if it didn't. Cheers, Beauzinga
