Yeah, It's a shame. What happened to me is that when I launch the game it instantly opens up epic games and on the ea app it says "Launching game" and nothing happens at all. Even when I log into the epic games client it doesn't show up that I own the game...
I never had this issue when I used the Origin App. it would just originally boost up with no need to have the Epic Games client. It's so stupid how you need to launch the Epic client after downloading it through EA.
Any EA game that needs to be opened via other gaming Clients is just straight-up *. As you stated, this may be an ownership issue between the two companies. Just poorly optimized and running.
Hope it works out in the future for you. I just uninstalled it. no point in having a 60GB game that takes hours to download just for a company to deny or accept any wrongdoings.
Sorry you had to uninstall the game. Maybe that's what they want in a way so that people buy new games? I still think SWBF2 is a great game, especially the Star Fighter section which knocks spots off clunky Star Wars Squadrons. If Ea, etc, wanted to make a lot of money they could spin out the starfighter section of the game with a new adventure and level editor and it would probably make tens of millions if not more for very little effort...
