BF3 not working with gamepass

i have battlefield 3 with gamepass and whenever i try launching the game with battlelog it opens ea desktop and says my ea and xbox accounts dont match, they do. ive tried all the other methods of launching bf3 in singleplayer mode and none of them work, and origin doesnt work with gamepass games, any help?

    Works now!

    I actually did nothing the last days to test this and now it just starts as if there was never a problem.

    Maybe EA fixed it?

    Because i wrote an Error-Report over the EA Desktop App.

    Anyways, now it works and i can play BF3 :D

    @Evil_5aint5,

    I'm afraid I'm kind of running out of ideas at this point. If you no longer use Origin, can you see if uninstalling the program makes any difference and try to start it up once more for me?

    @Evil_5aint5,

    I'm afraid I'm not sure what else to try as well. You could see if it does the same if you open it under a different windows admin profile in case it's somehow still linked to your Origin and has that stored in the cache somewhere.

    I've asked around and some of my colleagues and they were able to join in via EA Desktop without the reference so we are not sure why yours keeps referring back to Origin but I'll surely keep an eye out in case we see more reports come in.

    Tried it now on different admin profile, but also the same.

    Well i guess for now its the last thing i could´ve tried.

    Thanks again 🙂

    And if you or somebody else ever figures out whats the problem is, i´m here :D

    Hey @Evil_5aint5,

    Sorry for the late response, I had one of those elusive three day weekends. I'm glad to hear it's working for you now!

    Since EA Desktop is technically still in beta it's something that's continuously being worked on so all error reports are much appreciated and definitely do help as we sometimes can't reproduce all problems on our own due to not having the same setup and app history.

    I'm glad it's working now so you could play some Battlefield 3 before the weekend was over.

    Enjoy and see you on the Battlefield!

  • I play bf3 off the gamepass ultimate (xbox) but it's owned by another account, what do I do?

  • Hello, the whole problem stems from Origin. It MUST require Origin. EA app will not work meaning a lot of people through Game pass are getting screwed. This really needs to bealt with asap, Call of Duty World at War has the issue through Steam requiring the platform Plutonium just to play

  • This is on the older side of time, I'm closing this thread to stop it from being necroed.

    If you have any issues with Battlefield 3, please make a new topic about your problems and what kind of steps you have tried to solve them.
