Unable to Launch Steam Version of NFS Heat
I recently purchased the Steam Version of NFS Heat for my brother. After downloading and pressing play, the following message is shown: The game Need for Speed™ Heat Deluxe Edition does not appear to...

I had the same issue, the following solved the issue for me:
Close the Origin client completely before starting the game from Steam for the first time. That way Steam can install whatever it needs to connect ther game to Origin.
You don't have to do this every time you start the game, just the firt time. It'll work fine with an open Origin client after the first start installed whatever it had to.
@EA_DarkoActually your solution from post #6 gave me the idea to try this, so thank you for that.
Also, I've just reinstalled the game to try your solution in that post: Uninstalling and reinstalling the Origin client works too as long as I let Steam install Origin. Don't know why #7 and #8 said it doesn't work, but it's been almost half a year since then, so something might've changed since then with the Steam or the Origin client.
I'm having a similar issue and I've tried unistalling and reinstalling origin. It keeps asking for a product key
After all this time it still does not work. EA have a problem with control. The problem is you can not release a game on a platform that launches games for itself just to get the game to get people to download origin. It's selfish as can be. It should be a credit for every week go by with this same issue. EA is going to have to grow up and make up their mind on letting a separate platform bring them sells or depend on the failing origin which only live because of Sims.
Anyone else experiencing this here is what worked for me:
- close everything (EA app, origin, NFS)
- launch the game as administrator
Will this ever be fixed? It's really annoing.
This is another problem, I was talking about this in another article.
Please check it out.EA Launcher doesn't launch games.
If the link does not work for somereason.:Spoiler" In my case the problem was with locating the game folder.
When I checked where I downloaded the game on Steam it was on D: Drive. But EA app located it into C: Drive.
So what could we do? Some one said that you can use Regedit and change the installed folder address. But I couldn't.
What I was able to do is, I realized that I havn't even signed in to EA app, before I begin to download my games. (BF1&ME:A)
So I reinstalled the games through STEAM, but while having EA app running in the background and when it finished I launched the games for testing and they worked like a charm.
No errors with connection, no nothing.. It just worked.
1,Try to use Regedit
Last resort:
2,Reinstall while EA app is running.
Have a nice day. "
