DO NOT USE EA
EA has given me the biggest headache by far out of all of my PC headaches. Tell me how you are going to charge double (70-80$) for a game (most games are reasonable being around 40$) on steam THAT DOESNT EVEN WORK. I’ve gone and messed up all of me pcs settings trying to get it to work just for me ea app to crash 5 seconds after start up. The first solution is to clear your cache from the ea home page… IT WONT EVEN LET ME SIGN IN! WTF DO YOU MEAN! I’ve legit had it and have begun crashing out so I urge anyone prone to crashing out to STAY AWAY FROM EA! Worst devs I’ve ever seen by far. DO BETTER!!!Solved20Views0likes2CommentsGame removed from account
Hello all, Immortals of Avenum has been removed from my account, (Suspected fraudulent activity) I have followed the link in the explanation, but it still hasn't cleared it up (Clearing Cache). I have had the game for quite a while and don't have any more information to give. I have emailed the help address but nothing has come back, it has been since the first BF6 Beta, when I emailed EA 22/08/2025. I know this is an old game but it is annoying. Thank you in advance, Ggingerbaron2 days agoRising Novice11Views0likes1CommentThe sims 4
Everytime i redownload the sims 4, i leave out a few packs that i dont need cause the game takes up so much spave that i cant play otherwise. So i download the game with the packs i want. start the game. Then i see that every other pack i did not choose starts to download. How can i avoid that happening? Cause i cant play the game with all packs. cause the game takes up too much space with the packs. I have tried several times and the same thing happens. Literally havent been able to play the game in more than a year.love100103 days agoSeasoned Newcomer6Views0likes0CommentsEA Game Versions
If I have two versions of a game, one license on Steam and the other license from the EA app. Does it give me the ability to choose which platform to download and update the game? For example: I have Battlefield 2042 on Steam, but it does not give me the option to buy the EA Version or even download from the EA app stating that I should manage the game from Steam. So what happens if I redeem a EA app version of Battlefield 2042 alongside my Steam licensed version? Does it add a EA app version of the game, does it merge both licenses giving access to both platforms, or does it reject the license because I already have it on Steam? I tried this with Starwars Battlefront 2, I originally had a EA App version of it, and I also have a EPIC Games Store version. Upon installing the EPIC Games Store version, it changed my Battlefront 2's artwork cover adding the EPIC logo on top of it in my EA App library. It allows me to download either from the EPIC Games Store or the EA App, I did not even need EPIC Games Store installed because it recognises my EPIC version even without the EPIC Games Store being installed. Now from what I undestand Steam manages it's own installation and updates, where as EPIC required the EA App to cover the backend installation. If I did not own an EA version of Starwars Battlefront 2, then would that mean I would only beable to initialise the installation from the Epic Games Store and not the EA app exclusively. If you can not manage multiple platform versions, then this really should be looked at by either allowing the individual to select between EA App, Epic or Steam. Additionaly, I also want to point out that the inability to change the games artwork to remove the Steam or Epic logo is also rather annoying. EA App Artwork: No Logo identifying the EA app version. Steam and Epic Artwork with Logos identifying the version. But what if we own two versions of the same game on different platforms, what happens to the artwork in your library?KreigAnth3 days agoSeasoned Newcomer65Views0likes2CommentsEA App refund
Hey everyone, i bought the sims medieval game for Mac (triple checked this) , but when i went to the EA App it says it only works on windows and doesn’t let me download it. I have a macbook air m2 so i thought it wouldn’t have any problem running. But apparently it doesn’t. The problem now is I went to the refund tool page because if the game is unplayable there is no reason for me to leave it as is— but when I reach the point of selecting the refund method it gets stuck and doesn’t go any further. I tried restarting my pc, sign out and in again, changing the reason for the refund but nothing works. Also i cannot reach ea through emails to request said refund so… what can I do? It’s my first time purchasing on EA App so I have no idea how it worksSolvedshyroda4 days agoSeasoned Novice79Views0likes6CommentsEA App failure to launch
Hello, Yesterday the ea app was working perfectly normally. Today it's coming up with a message saying 'The app failed to launch' followed 30 seconds later by another window saying 'Failed to log in' and a error code reading EC:10005. I have tried repairing, uninstalling and doing a clean install and checked firewall and internet settings but nothing yet has worked.FinalBlowJoe6 days agoRising Novice53Views2likes2CommentsBug Report: Forced and Mandated Updates & EA App Behavior re: The Sims 4
REQUESTS FOR THE EA APP (Re: The Sims 4) I posted about this on many platforms, in many comment sections, and many, many people are having these same issues. The number of likes and upvotes indicates an even larger pool of shy, silent, or busy simmers suffering this, too. CORE REQUESTS * Updates to The Sims 4 game must be USER-INITIATED ONLY. * Updates must NEVER be automated, if the EA App restarts, it should do nothing to the game. No auto-updating of the the app or the game. * Updates must remain PERMANENTLY optional. The User should be able to stay on whatever game version they prefer and the game should still launch. * Suggestion: Game fixes to older versions need to be made available. * The EA App must not force updates. Ever, indefinitely. If a player chooses not to update for months, or even years; this must be a clear and fully supported option. THE CURRENT ISSUE: Since this summer, the EA App has been producing so-called “error popups” (several types, seemingly arbitrary, affecting even vanilla players) with increasing frequency. These currently: *Block players from opening The Sims 4 unless they go online in the EA App. *Rotate through random “errors” to push the user online in the EA App. *Once online in the EA App; trigger new “error popups” that specifically force a Sims 4 game update. PS; halting the update causes a new “error” that prevents the game opening, too; so you know that is not an option. I am finding these are not genuine errors; they are deliberate update triggers. While they may technically fall under the EA App team, they directly impact The Sims 4 experience and must be addressed in coordination. You claimed this was resolved 11 months ago. (It was not resolved). Also; EC:204 is only one of three possible popup error codes; none appear related to real system issues. Please eliminate these faux “errors.” This was not resolved by any new EA App version: discussions/ea-app-technical-issues-en/re-resolved---ea-app-error-code-ec204/7566081 SUMMARY You have made it so that updates have become unavoidable for what looks to be around half of the Sims 4 player base. For those subjected to forced updates: *Vanilla players are experiencing frequent game-breaking bugs and corrupted saves, even without For Rent installed. *Modded players; the majority of the community; see their carefully curated setups repeatedly destroyed, driving many players to abandon the game entirely. This summer it is MANY. Even those not using script mods, but only CC for CAS and Build/Buy playstyles. TLDR *Updates must be user-initiated only; never automatic; always optional; never forced. *The game must still launch if the user chooses not to update; even after months or years. *The “no auto-update” toggle is broken; replace it with a clear OPTIONAL UPDATE button. Make sure that update is truly optional. *Eliminate fake error messages that block the game from opening and funnel players into forced updates. *Players must be free to choose if and when they update; even if that is never. The game should still launch and run. *Add support to repair earlier game versions. Do this; and watch user complaints drop by half. Please coordinate between the EA App and Sims 4 teams. Thanks!154Views3likes2CommentsEA Play on Xbox Ultimate Gamepass (PC) Regarding Achievements, Progression, etc.
PC titles have yet to implement Xbox progression and achievements. Steam has EA Play with unlockable achievements for example. Adding this would improve the players experience when it comes to playing an EA game via Xbox Ultimate Gamepass. As of now there's little reason for me and those alike to play these titles on PC via the Xbox ecosystem as it doesn't give off the full game feeling. There's two options to achieve this, one is implementing cross progression that syncs to your Xbox profile. The other option is to make a seperate achievement list and update the game title to Example (PC). This implement would make a lot of gamers happy while potentially increasing EA purchases on PC. I'm even sure this could be implemented into Steam given there's games on the platform that already allow for this including older Games for Windows Live. Get in touch with Microsoft and Valve, see what can be achieved, and make the gaming landscape even better. Also I suggest scrapping the mandatory EA Play app on PC. It's just a nuisance since we are paying for subscriptions on platforms that already do the task. You want consumers to experience your games in the best quality, unnecessary background apps negatively affect that, even if it's miniscule. Sincerely, EA Players3.4KViews9likes5CommentsEA gift cards not working.
Hello. I'm having problems with the EA gift cards. (9 times out if 10 they don't work straight away.) Most of the time it says ''that didn't work, try again later.'', and I keep trying. Sometimes I'm lucky, and I'm able to buy some DLC, but this is crazy, since this problem is allover the internet. You would expect that this issue would be solved after a few years ☹️ If anyone can help me with this problem....much respect!543Views0likes4Commentsea app services are currently prohibited in your country
Hello, I'm from Iran and Since I updated to EA app it just doesn't allow me to launch the game online and offline! I know this problem is due to the sanction laws on my country but I've been playing Fifa 23 via origin untill this update. So, my question is if EA is abiding by the rules then you shouldn't have allowed me to play the game with origin and steam before and definitely shouldn't have allowed me to buy the game in the first place. I have paid for this game and now I don't have access to what I have paid and own! So, the rules didn't matter when you took the money from me but then they matter all of a sudden!? With all due respect, this is not different than robbery! please answer me, you either need to refund the money or make this problem go away!Solved2.6KViews0likes8CommentsEA APP
Hi, Ever since the Sims changed from Origin to the EA App, those of us who play Sims have been experiencing issues: the EA APP crashes, and it crashes the game; somehow MS One Drive got into the EA folder and was causing my whole system to shut down. Now the EA APP still crashes, but it opens up multiple times. Maybe an App was the wrong choice for Sims games. I think running the game in Origin was better and we should go back to playing in Origin PennyPenny6Sims8 days agoNew Novice23Views0likes0CommentsGreat games guarantee refund
Hello, I would please like a refund for The Sims 4 Love struck add-on. It's not been 24 hours and it doesn't seem to appear on my orders as refundable - but I just assumed it was part of the great games guarantee, I didn't realise some games are not ?? Does that mean you can't guarantee that all games are great?? Sounds dodgy... I also can't find a customer service chat button anywhere. I have just messaged on Instagram but I thought I would post this for documentation purposes - also if anyone knows how to get a refund pls help because I am broke xSolvedlunarsociety9 days agoRising Newcomer25Views0likes2CommentsRefund status showing failed

I'm having trouble even purchasing it. I purchased and downloaded the library kit just fine, I've even managed to see it in the game. But it's been several attempts and no matter where I try to get the grunge kit, I get a message that says there was trouble processing my request and it says [ref.#PRICENOTFOUND] It happens through the app and directly in the game menu.
