People up in here with high end gaming rigs and PS5s and all you can do is think its our hardware. It's not. How could a PS5 possibly have any issues. EA launcher is just trash and only just recently came out of beta stage which is fair enough but here you are indicating it's our hardware and lack of trouble-shooting. Fact is if we can't just click on a game and have it boot instantly then why should we bother or have to do muck around trouble-shooting and file trickery. My flash new high end PC can play witcher 3 on steam and flight sim 2020 on xbox app and age of empires 4 but I can't play medal of honor allied assault a 20 year old game through ea play. I also can't play command and conquer. But it does let me play sim city 2014. Strange.
I suggest to anyone to not bother with ea play launcher altogether for a good wee while until it's been updated further. Maybe it's because I am only doing $1 trial for the first month, maybe that's why. But I am not going to risk paying full price for any game on ea play launcher. If you are using game pass on xbox app, only bother with games that are not are not affliliated with EA (do not have the little ea play notation at the bottom of the tile) because I have no issues with those ones. Also you can go to GOG and simply buy ea games for quite cheap (on sale at present) and you will have no issues. I bought medal of honor allied assault to own for only $2.49 US and no issues whatsoever.
Perhaps the issue is do with some communication problem between EA and xbox. Googling this it just seems like they point the finger at each other.
I just wanted to add to this thread because I've been having similar issues trying to play EA play games on PC game pass. I tried Mirrors Edge Catalyst months ago and after a few minutes of the game running, it would just crash to my desktop with seemingly no errors or anything. Didn't care to bother with it much so I uninstalled it and moved on lol. I'm trying to play A Way Out now and I'm having the same exact issue again. I play games on PC game pass all the time. Only EA play games have this issue.
