Problem connecting to EA online service. (PS3)

Hey Friends!

First of all, I think you all do a wonderful job making the most fun games on the market.  Even when you make games that have themes that I am not interested in, I am always pleased with how fun they are to play no matter what.

But my problem is with Skate 3, I understand it is not on your highest of concerns anymore, but it is my favorite game to play because it is always entertaining and so hard to get tired of.  But over the past couple days I have not been able to connect with the EA online service.  At one point I was able to play online with one other person, but since that time (which was about a week ago) I have not been able to check the feed, photos, videos, or parks.  I am able to play online but I never see anyone there, which I understand may be the result of not that many people play Skate 3 anymore.  

I am wondering if the problem is something on my end, or if maybe you kids at EA are no longer supporting the online service for Skate 3.  I understand if you are and that isn't that big of a deal.  But if it is something on my end of the problem then I would love to get to know how to fix it.  


also sub question:  I know a while back there were several rumors of Skate 4 being at the very least concidered by EA (my sources being a bunch of youtube videos that may or may not of been B.S.)  Just wanting to know for myself if that was true, and also what was the outcome of that?   Also with the independent company making the PC/Mac/Android BMX game would EA concider doing a BMX game in the future?  The Sales might not be high on a Skate 4 game or even a BMX game, but the people who would buy the games would appriciate the doo doo out of them.  I'd probably buy 2 of each.  maybe 3... because I played all my skate games until the disks broke.  And will continue buying them if they break. 

Thanks for being such an awesome company

Thanks for all the fun 

And thanks for all the times you distracted me when I should of been doing my homework or house work

I love you

    I have, and I did those steps three times.  Still having the same problem. Lots of people are having the problem.  No one can access created parks, other peoples videos or photos.  can't access teams, or the skate feed.  

    instead of looking at my account why don't you go test it your self?

    There is nothing wrong with your game account from what I can tell everything is in order.

    I would recommend these steps then: Help with Losing Connection to EA Servers

    That's it !
    Would be better, if someone of EA say that are a problem in the servers, and they will solve it, than talk to us to do the same tests again and again.

    @ROORLAX 

    Your GamerTag and Origin account are not linked.

    You have to link them in order to access online features.

    Make sure your PSN ID / GamerTag is properly linked to your EA/Origin Account especially if you have recently change your email address.
    Directions for adding your PSN or Xbox Live ID to your EA Account can be found here.

    Also don't forget to download and install the Share pack code for free.
    The share pack code is now available for free in the PlayStation Store and Xbox LIVE Marketplace.

    Yes we have checked and we can also see other players online currently. If you haven't done it yet, try reinstalling the share pack code.
