Forum Discussion
I tried the clear cookies and cache etc... did NOTHING ... This problem has stopped me completely from playing this PAID FOR game.
I am really getting pretty angry here. Why do products get shipped WITHOUT BEING TESTED!!!??? What kind of crap is this?
I want an answer NOW from someone at EA NOW... I am tired of **bleep** software put out before its tested. Having been the leader of a quality assurance software division I can tell you this stuff really pisses me off.
EA, answer now please...
