Re: EA Desktop Game Library Not Updating with Current Games Library

Hey there Mickey,

This has been an issue that's been unaddressed for a long, long time (I stopped using EA Desktop about 5 months ago because of this issue), and I'm in a similar boat to you (perhaps only moreso).

According to the Origin I have the following titles in my library:

  1. Apex Legends
  2. Burnout Paradise Ultimate Box
  3. Command & Conquer - Red Alert 2
  4. Crysis Warhead
  5. Crysis
  6. Crysis 2 Maximum Edition
  7. Crysis 3 Hunter Edition
  8. Dead in Bermuda
  9. Dead Space
  10. Dragon Age: Origins Ultimate Edition
  11. Dragon Age II
  12. Dragon Age: Inquisition Game of the Year Edition
  13. Dungeon Keeper
  14. Jade Empire: Special Edition
  15. Mass Effect
  16. Mass Effect 2 - Plus following DLC:
    Aegis Pack
    Alternate Appearance Pack 1
    Alternate Appearance Pack 2
    Arrival
    Blood Dragon Armour for Mass Effect 2
    Cerberus Arc Projector
    Cerberus Network
    Cerberus Weapon and Armour
    Collector's Weapon and Armour
    Equiliser Pack
    Firepower Pack
    Firewalker Pack
    Genesis
    Kasumi - Stolen Memory
    Liar of the Shadow Broker
    Mass Effect 2 Digital Art Books
    Mass Effect 2 Documentary
    Mass Effect 2 Soundtrack
    Normandy Crash Site
    Overlord Pack
    Recon Hood
    Sentry Interface
    Terminus Weapon and Armour
    Umbra Visor
    Zaeed - The Price of Revenge
  17. Mass Effect 3 - Plus following DLC:
    Alternate Appearance Pack 1
    Citadel
    Earth
    Extended Cut
    Firefight Pack
    From Ashes
    Genesis 2
    Groundside Resistance Pack
    Leviathan
    Mass Effect Digital Books
    Mass Effect 3 Soundtrack
    N7 Collector's Edition Materials
    Omega
    Rebellion
    Reckoning
    Retalliation
    The Final Hours of Mass Effect 3
  18. Mass Effect 3 Digital Deluxe Edition
  19. Mass Effect Andromeda
  20. Mass Effect Legendary Edition
  21. Medal of Honour Pacific Assault
  22. Nox
  23. Plants vs. Zombies
  24. SimCity Complete Edition
  25. SimCity 2000 Special Edition
  26. Star Wars Battlefront Ultimate Edition
  27. Star Wars Battlefront II Elite Trooper Deluxe Edition
  28. Star Wars: Squadrons
  29. SteamWorld Dig
  30. The Sims 4 (Plus all DLC)
  31. Theme Hospital
  32. Wing Commander III Heart of the Tiger

When I install and start EA Desktop, on the other hand, my library suddenly shrinks down to this lot:

  1. Apex Legends
  2. Crysis
  3. Crysis 2
  4. Dead Space
  5. Dragon Age: Origins
  6. Dragon Age 2
  7. Dragon Age: Inquisition
  8. Dungeon Keeper
  9. Jade Empire: Special Edition
  10. Mass Effect 3
  11. Mass Effect: Andromeda
  12. Mass Effect Legendary Edition
  13. Medal of Honour Pacific Assault
  14. Plants vs. Zombies
  15. SimCity
  16. SimCity 2000
  17. Star Wars Battlefront
  18. Star Wars Battlefront II
  19. Star Wars: Squadrons
  20. The Sims 4
  21. Theme Hospital

Suffice to say that EA Desktop still needs a lot of work to be able to match the Origin desktop client with regard to accuracy and completeness of any user library its attached to.  Going to uninstall this effort and try again in about 6 months or so - Maybe the developers will have done something a little more substantial about this issue by then (other than trying to pour water up a rope)...

Regards,

Doug
