I just tried that and I even uninstalled and re-installed the EA app and it still doesn't work. It almost seems like its something to do with BF2042 specifically for some reason. I downloaded Medal of Honor Pacific Assault and Need for Speed Most Wanted no problem.......

Testing it here and it's working for me @magpulmasata.


Do you see the issue with any other game at all?

    @EA_Darko I was afraid to try and Uninstall one of my other Battlefield games thinking I wouldn't be able to get it downloaded again like BF2042. I did however reinstall Origin last night and then I was able to download BF2042 no problem. I did a test run on it this morning and it played flawlessly..... I hope this helps.

      I've been having the same issues.  BF2042 shows as wanting to download in the EA app (already installed via Origin) then fails.  I have noticed that the EA app is showing my old purchase of the Ultimate edition which I refunded at launch.  Since then, I bought the standard version, it looks like the EA app is trying to download the Ultimate Edition again but fails.

      I've had to go back to Origin for everything to work again.

        I've been using Origin again since I could never get BF2042 to download and install on the EA App until yesterday when Origin made me switch to the EA App. I hoped they had the bugs worked out but of course not, still the same issue I was having two months ago. BF2042 STILL won't download..... Does anyone have an actual phone number for EA so I can try to call and get an actual solution to the problem since nobody on here seems to have any answers......
