Re: FIX FOR BF4 STEAM LAUNCH ISSUE:ASKS FOR CD KEY, PLAY BUTTON GREYED OUT ON ORIGIN

On October 5th I played Bf4 without any issues until the 8th when the game suddenly started asking for CD-key.

CD-Key was resolved but the issue still continued and doesn't display any info on what was going on and has been continuing for a month and still continuing.

I contacted Support in October 27th and they responded to me on November 7th and told me to

Right Click on the game and select repair.

These are the only options that show up are

- Play (Greyed out)

- Favriotes

- Achievments

-Properties

- Hide 

- Uninstall

Another EA Support member contacted me and said  this list of things to do.

> >Close Origin completely by right clicking the Origin system tray icon and selecting Exit.

> >Make sure that Origin is up-to-date.

> >Make sure Time/Date is correctly set on the PC.

> >Reset Internet Explorer Settings and visiting the below link:


Advise the Player to select either option 1 or option 2 depending on their OS and preferences.

> >Untick the options in the LAN Settings.

> >Clear Origin Cache Data.


> >Reset the Windows Host File.

> >Reboot your computer.

> >Flush DNS.

This didn't help resolve the issue as a matter a fact It created more issues than resolving them.

So why am I posting on Answers HQ?
