In-game Pop-Ups

I keep getting a pop up to buy new packs...how do I opt out? This is happening, every 10–15 minutes I am in the game, and it is happening unprompted. It's getting to a point where I am going to abandon this game. I don't want to be reminded of your kits or other packs, and I sure as hell will not be buying them.

I'd rather not give you any more money until you fix this.

    Hi @deviantdoll,

    Long shot, but did you install any mods lately? Specifically one by TwistedMexi called EA Personalized Experience?

    The game by itself do not open the settings. Do you happen to have a a stuck ESC key? Try with another keyboard.

    It could also be caused by a broken mod. Move your Mods folder to the Desktop and delete localthumbcache.package. Then test the game in a new save.
    If it works now check for updates to your Mods and CC. Add it back a little at a time while testing until you have found all that are broken.

    @EA_Cade Yes and I apologize. I freaked out and ran here. I was able to find the mod and removed it. I appreciate your quick response too.
