Hi burzurk88!
I think we can fix this issue, please keep us updated if your problem after this workaround still exist.
At first, download and install the latest version of Origin at www.origin.com/download (and make sure you have your Origin account ready as well)
If that doesn’t helped, close the origin client and go directly to you origin folder C:\Program Files\Origin Games. Run the origin.exe in this folder with a rightclick -> run as administrator.
This worked out in the most cases, if not, try to deactivate your firewall/antivirus software and/or check the online ports of your connection:
TCP: 80, 443, 9988, 20000-20100, 22990, 17502, 42127
UDP: 3659, 14000-14016, 22990-23006, 25200-25300
For specific instructions on how to open your ports, please visit http://www.portforward.com/ or contact your router manufacturer.
Cheers

does not work...
I know fine well EA put these games on the humble bundle to promote origin, something nobody wants (because steam is far far far far better)
if on top of having to put up with EA crap I can also not download my games, you guys are hardly selling this **bleep** well, are you.
Run as administrator worked for me! 😕mileyhappy:
They gave you a free AAA game. And it's goddamn Battlefield 3. Also they gave you a solution to this problem. Shut the **bleep** up!
well the solution dident work when it restarted origin it needed to be accepted again so i was just as useles as the origin downloader but restarting my pc has helped
This is rubbish.
Let's build a spamfest (somehing a bit like Steam, but not a fraction as good) and force people to have to run their games from it.
Then, if they are dumb enough to buy a digital copy of game, we'll ensure it takes them 3 days to be able to redeem the code and that it never downloads anyway. That way we'll never have to deliver what we took money for.
not help at all
nope doesnt work
