Re: "Not Currently Playble" or "This game hasn't released yet" Error on EA app

After following all the steps in the article they linked earlier in the thread, I disabled everything but VANGUARD services (required anti-cheat for Valorant) + Elgato programs (needed for my Elgato Stream Deck & such). Did the computer restart, ran EA App as an admin, and then it started doing an update launcher for it that I have never seen before but it worked!! Able to play my Sims 3 just fine. I noticed that these steps messed up my Steam, but reversing the clean boot steps and restarting my PC worked as well lol. Both EA + Steam work perfectly now!

  • Okay.. solved the Games not launching because of the "Hasn't released yet error"

    Yay!

    On the downside now II'm hitting the point where the games just don't launch.

    Like you'll see the preparing thing. . And then the app trays itself and I'm left looking at the desktop.

    The app shows the game as running.

    The Task manager shows the game process.

    But it's just stalled...

    Apparently something to do with rundll32 process.

    @IframedtheButtle 

    Do you have any Antivirus installed? 

    If yes, can you please try temporarily disabling the Antivirus and running EA app as admin then try launching your games again to see how that goes.

    Just windows Defender

    And the game folders and EA App folders are excluded.

    I also disabled it at the first try.

    Thanks for the update. 

    Is the clock on your PC set to "Set time automatically" or manually? Could you try setting it to automatically in case it's not then clear the EA app's cache? 

  • IT's always et the time automatically. Though ity seems to be something with the renderer. CNC wrapper fixed the isse.
