EA Play in offline mode
Hi, the answer is :" if i install star wars jedi: fallen order, using Ea play subscription, a fews days later can i play without internet connection? " Thanks, Attilio
Hey @SHDW_Saint I was mistaken, you can play games you own on EA offline but not EA Play.
If you wish to use EA Play games through Game Pass then you will need to be online.
If you have EA Play through the EA App or Origin then you can play it on both.
Also, as the app is still in Beta changes are being made all the time.

Agree this is a terrible user experience. And a costly one. I am discouraged to continue buying further EA games because I can't trust whether the gating mechanisms will work from one day to the next. If I'm out $50 for one game that's not the end of the world, but for EA you guys are out a few hundred because I can't trust your platform. Pennywise, pound foolish on the programmers' and QA budgets, I would wager.
I'm having the exact same problem trying to start Sims 4 in offline mode. Like, there was a huge game update a few days ago that will 100% break a lot of mods I currently use, so the go-to method for the past 8 years was always just to switch to offline and wait for all modders to update their stuff and keep playing with the previous built in the meantime. Now we simply can't do that. What a bunch of nonsense. And knowing EA's track record; even without any mods in, I'm sure there'd be tons of glitches/bugs regardless because there ALWAYS is when a new Sims 4 update comes out. Absolutely infuriating.
This whole app nonsense is a joke. I have Sims 3 on PC and I can't even launch the game without internet access. EA app will not launch without internet connection. There is an option to go offline when you are logged in but that is useless because you need internet connection to access that option in the first place. And I could not install Sims 3 game using my game disc. What a waste of money! Absolute joke.
We have confirmation that it is by design that we cannot play in offline mode anymore.
