First time i have bought a EA origin game on pc as transferd from xbox 4 months ago.
Got this problem on a high end pc with way over requirements, think i'll stick to steam after basically giving a big donation for nothing.
Black screen on start up sound is there, no point saying specs as same as many high end pc's here and basically why should i put the time in to make a good reply when EA blame our specs.
If you read this and are outraged I don't blame you.
My name is Max, and so far from this game not only has it half destroyed my computer, it no longer works. I installed it on the 7th of March and didn't play until the 10th. It was ok as I still had a little faith it would be a good game. Then after playing for a hour bang black screen no warning nothing. So i reboot my computer only to find out that it will happen again another 500 times. I then go to repair install the game, I can't do that... I go to fresh install the game and It comes up with a missing .par message. I couldn't figure out what was going on!? all of a sudden the computer crashes hard and I leave it for a day extremely pissed off. The next morning I boot up the computer to check my email and it won't start. I load my secondary drive and manage to load up my backup install on the d drive. After looking with dread at what may have caused the computer not to load I find out that not only has simcity been corrupted. MY ENTIRE C DRIVE HAS BEEN UNINSTALLED OR CLASSED AS MISSING (cannot find this program bla bla). So as we speak, I am stuck on my D drive unable to play simcity, missing half my software (some of it expensive antivirus etc) and very pissed off. I called ea support Australia only to find out they aren't availible on Saturday, **bleep**ING SATURDAY, they have prerecorded messages for you that are COMPLETELY USELESS. I actually feel like sewing EA for this **bleep**.
