I have a problem with Plants Vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2. When I start up the game it loads then tries to connect to EA servers and can not, saying: "Unable to connect to EA servers at this time. Please try again later" I don't know what the problem is I have a very good internet connection and I have waited to try again several times but it keeps telling me the same thing
Hey, so I recently came back to the game on PC and everything was fine. When I first downloaded it, it ran perfectly and there was no issue. The next day, I attempt to relaunch it and suddenly, it was crashing on the startup loading screen on the "Connecting to EA servers" part. The game simply closes itself down and there is no error message or anything. I've verified the game file integrity multiple times through Steam and it consistently states that 3 files fail to verify and have been reinstalled, but I still get the crashes. When I've relaunched the game after the verification, I noticed it reruns the install script for the EA anti cheat, so I'm betting that it has something to do with this, (I'm thinking it might not be a crash but rather it's forcefully just closing the game down for some reason) but I honestly don't know. I've not found a forum that is helping, but I've seen many people have crashing issues after this anti cheat update I've been looking into. Im still very confused because in my case, one day it was fine and the next, it's shutting down. Help would be much appreciated.
Update: It's working now. I had to restart my PC multiple times. Maybe something to do with the background processes? I'd assume it was a PC issue but my specs are more than fine for the game and drivers are up to date with no component issues so I'm ruling that out.
Community ManagerHey @DaOne579
Thanks for informing us that the issue has been resolved. It's difficult to determine the cause when it's resolved through a system reboot. It could have been a system issue or something running in the background.
I recently installed BfN after buying it on the sale, but it just won't get past the connecting to EA servers thing without crashing. That means i can't play the game at all.
Solutions i've tried:
- restarting the pc
- installing Easy Anti Cheat (i found some old guides for older issues and thought it would help)
Here's a video showing what happens when i launch the game:
This is still happening to me... It just shows splash screen and then gone

Do you run an anti-virus? I have to turn mine off to play after the last big patch.
yeah but, can i keep origin after installing EA App? i prefer origin because it has more useful functions and much less issues with launching etc
Community Manager@linnardd Check your antivirus, as @Iron_Guard8 mentioned above, and let us know how that goes. Verify the game files if you also launch your game on Stam.
