@EA_Illium I can't enter "Unbound" through "Steam" like I normally do, please expain what the reason is behind this and hopefully it's going to end for many of players along with myself.
I wasn't too hopeful going into the weekend but who knows... devs haven't quite come back after the ole, "try the steps you've already read and tried, Again lol
I'll try again in the 24hr window, we should all be able to enjoy a game anytime, for any length, as much as we please 👍
I've just entered the game as always (from steam, with EA app closed), and completed a playlist. Without updating and repairing. I'll try in a few hours again, but for now, the game is working.
The problem is not server blocking. This is due to the game's denuvo protection. As long as you keep trying, you will be blocked. If you ask why this is happening, I wrote it in the first place. Even the slightest change in the PC can cause this. For example, even if you enter the BIOS and change the simplest setting. It shouldn't happen, but it does. That's why there is no answer that says it is 100% caused by this.
Those who say they waited and it didn't happen are wrong, and those who are getting better now are the ones who really waited.
Waiting does not concern this game, but all EA games. Even if you try another game like NFS Heat, Unbound doesn't open, 24 hours will be added directly to your time. Because there is no denuvo protection in NFS Heat. That's why you can open it. But the server records that you are logged in from the same account. Then, if you want to run Unbound, this guy says there is some input and blocks it directly.
In short, you must wait 24 hours before opening any EA game.
If you ask me how I know this, the same thing happened to me in the past and when I couldn't find a solution, I directly contacted one of the developers of the game via X and asked. It took a week for the man to respond. By that time, the game had already been opened because I wasn't at home and I hadn't touched it at all. Then I saw in the man's answer that I had to wait 24 hours. I already waited because I wasn't at home. It was a bit of a coincidence, but that's the way it is, friends.
Additionally, this game allows up to 3 different PCs with a single account. For example, if you try it on a 4th PC, it blocks it directly. I have two PCs, it has been working fine on both of them for a long time.
Another issue, I think it is related to the Windows product key. If you have the embedded OEM key, it detects that the PC is the same PC and does not cause any problems as long as the motherboard is not changed. But if you have a Retail or Mak key, there may be problems. For example, you made changes to the bios, formatted and installed Windows, or changed a part. Because it thinks you are accessing from a different device.
I quoted another denuvo protected game from Steam.
I've already tried multiple solutions and the problem is still persistent, it's ridiculous. I'm hoping they'll do something to fix the EA App. It just refuses to launch the game weather you open it via steam or the app itself. Nothing worked for me.
Hi, I just started the game but by going to the EA app properties and then double clicking the EAUpdater.exe file, the game automatically loaded and I started playing. Now I have another problem which is about the "connection interrupted" error. Every time I enter Lakeshore Online I try to see my garage or maybe enter PVP or free roam and the game automatically kicks me to the main menu with the "connection interrupted" message. Is there any way I can fix this because I previously followed all the steps that customer service told me but so far I have no solution for it. Could you help me with that please? I must say that I also stopped playing that game for two weeks and a little more, when I wanted to enter again after that time that error started to appear when I entered Lakeshore Online. Please, ask for help as soon as possible with that please.
