I played battlefield 2042 on PC.
Was able to play some hours yesterday. Now the game won't launch anymore.
Installed everything from scratch including Windows. Nothing.
Customer support is a joke.
And then I also got locked out for 24 hours when I wanted to try if it runs on my laptop.
Amazingly bad experience EA.
If this isn't fixed within the next hours I'm definitely going to refund.- EA_Atic4 years ago

@EA_AticTried both, long story is in my prev post.
1. I bought some weeks ago as preorder on Origin, started preloading as soon it was possible. Had the issue with DX not letting me launch the game so finally made the upgrade to Win11 *reinstall* and then got locked out. Try to talk to support via Chat couldnt help me, refunded the BF.
2. bought again today on Steam in hope this will fix it. First uninstalled Origin completly from my desktop and install steam and BF. As soon as I started it from steam it ask to automatically install Origin and let me sign in with my origin account, than immediatly got the same error again.
No chance for me to play currently 24h period is already over but still have the problem.I would really appreicate if I can play the game I payed for. But seems EA more like to have their "inteded" system than customers.
It is really frustrating, I do not understand why this is neccesarry, because in BF you cant share the account and play with 2 persons on the same account at the same time. Also I have 2FA enabled on my account and beeing a Origin Cutomer since the beginning. Origin got a real mess, i honestly hate it.

@EA_Atic Win11 21H2 22000.318
so bad 24hrs is over for me since half a day but I still get the same "please wait" error. Sucks hard. Why pay for early access if I cant play?
Thank you EA

Got the trial version over the xbox game pass and could play an hour yesterday. Today I tried to start the game and got the "Too many computers.." error. I mean the system didnt change overnight so i guess thats a bug in the * software EA deploys. Luckily i didnt even buy the game and at this point im not sure if I ever will.
Edit: fixed typo

@EA_Atic I am using a windows 10 vm from shadow cloud gaming. I was able to play the game everyday all week on the one and only device I have ever played it on. I even got ea play pro and upgraded to the ultimate just to play the early access. Everything was fine until today after work when I tried to play and now I have this error. I ONLY HAVE ONE COMPUTER THAT I HAVE EVER PLAYED BF2042 ON! What is going on?!?!

Im playing on a Windows 10 computer.
When implementing a feature like this it screws over people who play games like this at internet cafes, where getting the same system everytime when visiting the cafe is not feasible. This means that I am constantly met with the error message saying that too many computers have accessed BF2042. Not only this, but some people have multiple systems in their own homes and are getting locked out of playing this game.
Frankly, this is not a good feature to implement and is single-handedly jeopardizing my ability to play and enjoy this game at all. The game is tied to the ACCOUNT, and should NOT be tied to computer hardware.
Please reevaluate this `feature` and consider removing it. This error message is even being triggered within same systems that undergo a graphics driver update, etc.
Thank you.

This is stupid. I just bought the game installed it at home. Played maybe 10 minutes, turned off origin and the PC then went to work. I installed it there and bam, "Too Many Computers Have Accessed this Account's Version of Battlefield 2042"
Is 2 computers too many? the * ea? I just spend 60$ supporting your stupid buggy game despite everyone warning me not to buy it. Nevertheless, I sent my hard earned cash to play this. The hell are you doing? Are you trying to lose what little fanbase you have left supporting you?
What if I have 5 PC's?
Here is your stupid <scripted question> answer
PC1.
Ryzen 7 - 2700x
XFX RX 580 8GB
16GB DDR4 - 3200 Mhz
Gigabyte B450 Aorus Elite.
Windows 10 Pro 21H1 (build 19043.1348)
PC2
i7 - 7920
Nvidia Quadro P5000 - 16GB
64GB DDR4 - 3000 Mhz
Windows 10 Pro 21H1 (build 19043.1348)
On both PC's Origin client. No, there are no hackers 2FA is enabled. I use VPN sometimes it is what I do. It's not for you to ban me because of that. Find a way to sort this out, steam doesn't complain, ubisoft doesn't complain. Even freaking EPIC isn't complaining.
Just EA... and your * platform from 2015. Idiots.

Wow deleting comments? No wonder this thread is 4 pages and not 400.
- MaliaSkyeBF3 years agoNew Rookie@EA_Atic im on origin. I haven't used any other pc. Noticed I couldn't connect last night, I turned the game off and this morning I'm hit with this dreaded error on 2042. No hardware changes or software changes have been performed on my pc. I have 2FA enabled and no one but myself can access my account.
