[EA app] Dead Space 2 "Failed to launch game"

I've managed to get Dead Space 2 in a seasonal sale on the other platform.

It works on Windows 11 after applying compatibility console fix (used both ProcessorCountLieXXX fields).

@razortongue Gotcha. so you are able to play it now after that other purchase?

Yes, please close the thread.

I think it was some problem with eligibilities, as DS2 was available in my EA App, but didn't show in My Games on EA.Com website.

Unfortunately, game needs to be run as an admin with Compatiblity console fix (fake processor number), but it doesn't impact gameplay.

@razortongue No worries at all! Happy you are able to play now!

Hi,

it's a shame that you close a topic because it's working after buying on another platform...

There's a lot of identical tickets which were opened and closed without a solution : I'm in that case and don't want to spend money to rebuy a game because EA has a default service : that's their duty to fix it.

Should we move to a class action to force them to have a look ?

@27f4c661c72b5ebf If you are still having an issue, we can still assist. We don't close threads unless there is necro posting, or the thread is getting out of hand. Players can still post on any thread that relates to the issue they have.

Hi,

thanks to be so positive, but the fact is that I've read a number of posts with the same problems and no solution identified but ticket closed.

I've open a new ticket and complete it a few minutes ago because I've also found that Dead Space 2 is no longer distributed by EA and, if I understand well, people can continue to use it if it's already installed and working but it's no longer possible to make a fresh install. Am I correct ?

@27f4c661c72b5ebf If you have the game, you can play the game. I just downloaded it in Steam and the EA app to test it. There are some features that are offline like a co op mode but the single player aspect itself works.
