Misleading switch from origin to ea app
Why push to move customers/gamers from a working program to a non working program? We have all paid alot of money of the years to play our games which currently is not working with new ea app. If it...
Forum Discussion
@A_Bridge_2_Far I have been emailing ea for the last two hours asking for a corporate phone number and they will not tell me. I have gotten 8 different emails to use live chat and ea will not allow me to after blowing up on them. my issue started when they told me not only to uninstall origin but also reinstall it but there is no origin download link anymore. any time i try to open my game it pops up an empty beta window and wont open. i did not have this problem until they forced me to uninstall origin on 10/23. the last time i was able to play my game was 10/23. i am livid and all ea wants to do is block me from contacting them.
@kennedyrankin Here is a download link for Origin Thin Client:
https://origin-a.akamaihd.net/Origin-Client-Download/origin/live/OriginThinSetup.exe
Be sure to close Steam and uninstall the EA App first, then install it.

When you down load Origin again, a prompt forces you to switch and down load EA app. How do you use origin and get around the prompt that forces you to download EA app?
- @KobeT4Hunnid you cant, they are forcing everyone over to EA CrApp, for good reasons if it was finished but that is not the case!
- @STG_Mordin dont bother, it will just force them to install the new app from recently, you launch it and are greeted with a " move to ea app " and you cant go around it.
ea app still doesn't work years later
when the MAC users get to use origin CLEARLY the servers and stuff are just fine
they need to dump EAAPP and go back to origin.
what company decides that to keep pushing a broken app that doesn't work YEARS after the beta launched, when all they're doing is making MORE work for people?
Clearly having BOTH ea app ONLY on windows and origin ONLY on mac is hardly easier on the wallet than only having origin for mac AND windows.
sure, they are very different oses, but dammit.
why are windows users getting the shaft?
You can get around it. I uninstalled EA app and reinstalled origin and it worked perfectly.
I have done just that and every time I log into Origin to play the game the EA APP thing pops up not allowing to choose to play...EA APP never launches the game and I have not been able to play all week! This sucks, I have spent $100's on this game and can't play it.
Friday evening, time to grab some bewarage and relax. Oh wait what, some stupid sticker in my face, of DL this sh*t- and games I´ve played for years don´t launch anymore. GJ EA, Origin was actually one of the best- good DL speeds, some good options, but now it went straight downhill....
EDIT: Found a solution- the game wanted to use some stupid old Cloud Save data from 2019, and started crashing. Thank god they at least left "Go Offline Mode" in as it is the only way to disable cloud sync imo. Now the game started up just fine.
