Re: Error Code 65538:-1

For some reason Origin thinks the game is completely downloaded when it clearly isn't.  Origin downloads 268 MB then tells me the game is ready to play. If I try to play directly from Origin, nothing happens.  If I try to play using the desktop shortcut, the launcher opens and tells me Origin isn't installed.

I've tried reinstalling the game, it just downloaded the same 268 MB.  I've tried repairing and updating, and I get this error: "We're sorry.  An error occured while trying to download your game. Please try again later. [65538:-1]"

    Origin only downloads about that much, the rest is downloaded via the SimCity launcher. All-in-All the game stands at 3.8GB.

    That error you're getting is the server being swamped. Keep trying.
