Community ManagerHey @DavidC21112005 Can you try to recover the EA App by going to the menu in the top left > Selecting Help > App Recovery, and trying to repair the game from your collection then check if this continues?
@EA_IlliumDoesn't work, sadly. After I did the app recovery, the EA app opened smoothly, as usual. Once I clicked on "play", the launching game thingy was present for 2-3 seconds, then the whole EA app closed for around 5 seconds, following it's reappearing as if I never actually attempted to open the game.
Edit: Gyazo link to show what's happening.

Hi @DavidC21112005 Thanks for the clip, would it be possible to get a DxDiag?
The SAME EXACT thing is happening to me every single time. This new app is horrible. I just bought a game and I can't even play it. Origin was far better. I've tried to uninstall, reinstall, clear the cache and all the other recommended things. I sure would like to play the game I just bought off STEAM, where I then to use this OTHER app to play off of. Smh...
And Here I was thinking it was some unrelated issue I have been having with my pc anyway... Why the f*ck?? I even kind of get wanting your own client to run games you distribute (though I think even making them available elsewhere then is freaking pointless) but at least have it work? I bought a game on steam I have been wanting to play for forever (it was consol exclusive for a while and I don't own a console) and now rather than finally being able to play it I spent my night unsuccessfully troubleshooting this mess...
So this has been going on since october... i have been playing Dragon Age. inquisition with no problems at all, but i kinda wanted to play Witcher 3 , just cuz i was a bit tired of DAI so i Unistalled DAI and installed Witcher3, and surprise, i can't play witcher neihter DAI, cuz guess what? non of them work :D and its so nice to see so manny peopole complaining about the same issue, demonstrating their frustration, and the support just not giving a single F**k :D
I would loveeeeee to see a message just like this one
" Hey guys, we looked into it, and to be fair we don't have any idea of whats going on, we are trying to understand whats happening but, for rigth now, we can't tell you much, cuz we don't know how to fix it, bare with us for a bit, we are deply sorry for your troubles, we get back to you as soon as we can"
But no, they straigth up ghosted us , *absolutely insane how this * launcher is STILL broken and you do nothing about it.
crazy how a game launcher can be horrific at launching games
and you wonder why its included with game pass....no one wants to give ea money if they cant even get their launcher to work
dont you think its funny its been a full year and ea only said 2 thing in this debate and then left it for us to try figure out like they gave us a way to fix it
- @sonofmybrother also plz someone find a solution i have tried every thing above and nothing works
2 years later and we still have the same issue... F...... embarrassing...
Yeah it's beyond pathetic. We should make a class action suit since we have no access to out product that was paid for.
I'M WITH YOU ON THAT
EA launcher doesn't work. Games fail to launch constantly. After dozens of attempts each time I try to play it finally plays. I have tried a number of solutions. But nothing seems to work. And I'm not the only one. There are hundreds if not thousands of people with this issue. A simple Google search will tell you how screwed up your app is. So please put so people on it and quit dicking around. Thanks
