    Hey @Amarius209

    When you quit the game and go back to Origin or EA Desktop, make sure Origin / EA Desktop is closed out completely, including in Task Manager. It may still be running in the background, causing you to have this issue.

    Once you've done that, try launching the game again, and see if it works out for you.

    Thanks 🙂

I only had the EA desktop app, but decided to close that and reinstall Origin and via Origin the game works fine. Thanks for the advice!
