do you have any updates for the people who replied with everything that was requested? (Mac model, OS, app logs, when the issue occurred, etc.?)
it seems like so many people are having this issue and we're not getting any responses or help
- 1 year ago@Ellie_Kabellie Not any update, I'm going crazy, I can't play.
- 1 year ago@Lilpinkypumkin It is seriously such garbage
- 1 year ago@EA_Leeuw So what are we doing to fix the issue except keep telling people they are posting on the wrong forum? Will we be getting out money back if it's not fixed soon?
