Hi @EA_Leeuw 
I'm a dev, so I understand the idea of prioritizing features. What I don't appreciate is invalidating people's feedback and then slapping a "That being said, this does not mean that your feedback is invalid". I can easily find reasons not to bump this feature in every single reply on this topic by saying something like "non-standard resolutions are not supported" or even "adjusting game options that are not directly available within the game is not supported", but then what?

@AlmightyJoe710, Cheers for the reply & the image. 

I am not exactly sure why you think that we are invalidating people's feedback.
It's the reason why I specifically posted that people's feedback is not invalid. As long as it is constructive (and even if it isn't 100%), feedback is always valid (as stated in our AHQ guidelines)

The EA app is not a direct copy of Origin. Therefore it is to be expected that some, maybe less frequently used(?), features that Origin had are not, fully, present in the EA app (yet?). The same thing counts for the Gifting feature, for example.

Because the teams are always looking for feedback to improve the EA app, I specifically asked for certain commands that people would like to use in the EA app for the Advanced Launch Options.

You would like commands people need? Any command featuring a file path. I (try to) access Battlefront 2 that was bought through epic and cannot reference the data path command because the EA App will not allow the simple file path characters ( ":" and "\"). I imagine there is a host of other issues using those characters but fortunately for me I do not purchase many EA titles.

"The EA app is not a direct copy of Origin. Therefore it is to be expected that some, maybe less frequently used(?), features that Origin had are not, fully, present in the EA app (yet?). The same thing counts for the Gifting feature, for example."

But you seem to have retired the Origin client. every time the EA App updates, it uninstalls Origin. Then because a basic feature does not work I have to reinstall Origin only for it to get removed  on the next update, and as all the settings seems to get wiped out then it all needs configuring again and again and again.

"The EA app is not a direct copy of Origin. Therefore it is to be expected that some, maybe less frequently used(?), features that Origin had are not, fully, present in the EA app (yet?). The same thing counts for the Gifting feature, for example."

I think what people would like to be able to is use Advanced options and set exactly the same options on their games, except most commands seem to start with + which says it not allowed... also they seem to end  0 or 1 which again seems to be disallowed. AKA
