Re: Restricting players from Syria

I was shocked. I bought Bf5 on my Steam account and downloaded it just to find out later that I can't even connect to the EA services and servers. this is really infuriating, not only for the money I spent because it wasn't that much but I was really excited to get back to the game again (since I bought it even though I had it for free using the Amazon Prime deal a few years ago)

Can someone look more into this? this is actually insane, the whole middle east can play but a specific country? for what? sanctions? they are already lifted. 

Thanks for reading all of my rant.

    Hey there, while sanctions have been lifted it will be some time before access to EA games is available in Syria. 

    As soon as we have any more information we'll let you know.
