    @safariforme  The launcher tries to patch the game but usually doesn't do a thorough job of it, which is why EA created the Super Patch.  I'm not telling you that you will definitely have problems if you don't use the Super Patch, only that it's at least reasonably likely.  And whatever patch you ran, it's not the Super Patch unless you downloaded it and ran it separately, i.e. not using the launcher.

    @safariforme  The Super Patch is a separate download and not available through your EA account.  I linked the download in post 2.
