Origin works on my PC, sims works on my PC...

Origin works on my computer, I can get games and downloads from them. The sims 3 and the expansions work on my computer.The game plays just fine., But when I log on to play the game, There is a message that tells me origin crashes and won't connect to the sims 3. Any idea what may be causing this issue???

    This has happened to me plenty of times i just close the game client, open origin, sign in, then run the sims 3 again, it usualy only does it if it needs an update. Then just close origin

  • I am not entirely sure what's causing this. Many people are having problems with the online part of the game. If Origin is causing trouble, I recommend not using Origin to play your games. The game is installed on your computer. You really don't need to go through Origin to play it. Try starting your game by using one of the shortcuts  show up on your desktop after installing it.
