Battlefield 3 Could Not Activate

Hi, as you can read from the title I cant open BF3, I bought the game both on steam and origin back  in the day. So I have 2 Bf3s but I cant play any of them, I tried to link my steam account to another ea account but still the same issue. I also tried some fixes I found like deleting the licanse file, installing VU Client, of course reinstalling the game couple of times and renaming my pc. None of them worked :(.  Here is the error screenshot.

  • Hello Berdushh,

    You should try talking with EA support, they might be able to assist you further. I would recommend other steps, but unfortunately I have yet to see a general way of fixing your issue.

    The best advice I can give you is to try again with a different support agent. There is nothing more I can say or do.

  • Hello!

    Have you found answer to the problem? Becouse I have the same issue. I have tried to delete EA app, re install game from the Steam, where I bought it. Nothing works. After that screen what you have, I get answer that it needs internet connection and it fails. I have tried disabeling virus programs and defenders, but nothing works.
