    I just bought ea play for the free trial of EAFC25 (not eaplay pro) but I can't access the free trial. I've already bought the standard edition and pre loaded it but the free trial doesn't work. Can someone tell me why this is?

  • Cancel your order maybe it will work.

    That was my case, i canceled it and the game worked

    Question 

    If I pre-ordered the standard edition, will this issue affect the release on 27.09?

    Is there a guarantee that the game will launch normally on that day?

    Is it better to cancel the pre-order?

    I wouldn't imagine it would effect the full release as the game will be unlocked and be able to play.. you may not be able to connect to servers as this is the problem now. But I very much doubt it will effect the 27th. Its just a massive volume of people trying to connect to servers at the same time. Basically just streaming a trial

    I cancelled pre order I just stopped payment going on Friday last week. Anyhow xbox have emailed me this morning saying they've cancelled the order because they can't take payment. I've just re downloaded the trail and it loaded 3 times 1st time each time no messing. I'll just buy it on Friday

    Guess what. I canceled my pre order. Why the hell should I pre order a game if it already annoys me. Oh and the pre order bonus, usually not usable so no reason to buy it for that. And the funny thing is, if I order it now again, I can get it 10 euro cheaper. EA EA, what the hell are you doing. On X, lots of promotion of the game, but nothing said about the failure of technic.

    according to my previous post, this might work for you.

    I canceled my pre order, got the money back already.

    De-install everything you installed of FC25.

    Go on the pc to your xbox account.

    Install the trial version from the pc to your console.

    Once installed, you can play!

    27th you can buy the full game, forget about bonuses, they are useless.

    If i pre order standard edition now, can i cancel it? I think so you can only cancel before 10 days of when game launches

    UPDATE: After playing 3 hours I got the same message again my trial expired. 7 hours to go but gone....2 days to go and the offical release date is there, EA didn't do anything to help their customers.

    Why should when I would have to wait 2 days for the money to be returned and then pay it again on Friday! Can't believe you get punished for actually wanting to buy their game. It's a shame but now I know to use the 10hr trial but pre-ordering

    Hey, I had the same problem but the workaround solves it for me..

    Just an adjust at this instruction below:

    Press (A) to advance through In-Game Network Message.. there are 3 messages to press A. Then go to the next step

    Workaround:
    - Launch the title
    - Select Free trial
    - Launch Xbox Dashboard
    - Enter Settings
    - Enter Network Settings
    - Select Go Offline
    - Return EA FC 25
    - Press (A) to advance through In-Game Network Message (3x)
    - Launch Xbox Dashboard
    - Enter Settings
    - Enter Network Settings
    - Select Go Online
    - Return to EA FC 25
    - Notice the Welcome to the Club message
    - Press (A) to Start

    I played 12 squad battle matches and what now? 12 is the maximum to earn points. All the games you play after this you get zero points. This is another change in FC25. So, I canceled my pre order, got the money back and won't play fc25 anymore. Isn't it just a stupid idea to show 32 matches to play but get points for only the 1st 12 matches?

    This is a no go fo me....bye EA sports!

    @Piet_Pirata probably just there way to force everyone to play Rush and Rivals... as per usual the Squad Battle players are pushed to one side once again.

    Could be, ut not my cup of tea. Played fifa since the very beginning but they found a way to make me move away from them. Glad I got my money back from the pre order. They made a huge mistake going this way.

    I was able to play the free trial on the 20th and 21st I played about 2 hours. I pre ordered it on the 23rd and now it says my trial has expired.
