Re: Premium EA PLAY, Origin Bug?

@EA_Atic Well it worked, but, I did something:
- Uninstall BF3;
- Go to Xbox Game Pass App;
- Click on Install from there;
- And then, the EA Dekstop App gonna start installing the base game, and later, the DLC's;
- Play the game, and boom, your now a Premium player!

Thanks Atic! ❤️

  • I got an issue. I downloaded bf3 through ea app bc there was a glitch with assignment not coming up etc. so I ended up buying through ea app. Then yesterday my game on ea app stopped work I uninstalled reinstalled it etc 

  • Today installed it right then it says I need updated? It did that before then it fixed it self . Today it does 19.91GB download I should do it says u click it to do it then it 3 up dates completed right. Then says can’t install bf3 due to slight hiccup installing the game please restart your pc I do and it’s been saying that the past 2 days

    @EA_Atic @mind3838 I have the same problem, not sure how to fix it. I have reinstalled the game few times, cleared my cache and nothing worked...
    If you find a way, make sure to post it.

    I might add, that the game istalled, then the DLCs, and now it still wants an update of 19.91GB which doesnt want to go through. 

    The Folder of the game is 34.2GB so i guess its already downloaded/updated? But its not seen by the app?

    @mind3838 Fixed it. Go to your BF3 folder, go into __Installer and manually install directx,punkbuster and vc. Then i cleared my cache in EA app, restarted and it worked. :D
  • if u dont mind me asking how do i do that? manually install it u mean manually download it?

  • @MestreSlime Should I install just the base game when it asks me after follow your steps or should I leave all of the dlc kept checked so those install too with the game. Because when I do it all at once after hitting install from the Xbox app it doesn't install all of the dlc and says there's an error
  • @Hypesu I tried this and it still didn't work for me, I keep getting download errors for the docs, it gives me base game but no premium dlcs
