STOP STEALING FOCUS ON GAME EXIT
When I exit a game I bought on Steam such as Mass Effect Legendary Edition, EA App brings its window to foreground... TWICE... in a span of few seconds. How hard it is to: 1. Not show app if it was minimized 2. Not put it in foreground (that's actually considered malicious behavior in Windows) 3. At least not do it twice but wait until it's ready Claude writes better code.EA App Closing Game
I’m going to post this to as many forums as I can as I can’t get into contact with any live support person at EA. Their chat bot just runs me in circles and sends me to unrelated forums. I’ll start by saying I only play the sims and have never had this issue before. I have had my game crash but that’s always followed up by some kind of report function to report the crash. That’s not what’s happening before some EA person tries to tell me otherwise. My game has always run fine and usually if it does crash it’s from an out of date mod I have. But that’s not the case now. I have taken out every mod. My computer can run the Sims 4 no problem even with mods but without mods it always performs much better. Maybe an hour into me playing the game, the game closes. Not crashes (I feel like I have to keep stating this so people understand.) It has only started happening the last few weeks. And I’m sure it’s the app causing this. It’s fully up to date as I check for an update every time I turn my computer on. Nothing happens in game that leads me to believe it’s a crash. The app just randomly closes my game. It’s annoying. EA has gone so far downhill that they can’t even bother to pay people to help with issues like this. Instead they have an AI bot that asks what the issue is, what your email is, and what platform you’re playing on and then will send you to a random forum (it sends me to a different forum every time I’ve tried.) Then when I ask for a live agent, it just asks the same questions again even though I’ve already answered them right before. I’ve tried this logged in and logged out of my account. I’ve tried on an incognito website. The point is that EA is cheap even though they’re going to make $500 BILLION dollars. They can’t even afford live support agents. This is absurd and at this point, I want a FULL refund of my Sims game and ALL expansion packs since I can’t play it without it closing on me. I can’t even get real help from a real person. Just a chat bot that’s taking all MY drinking water and giving money to billionaires.
I can't understand why do we/I need this buggy/messy piece of app.
As for me, I can't understand why do we/I need this buggy/messy piece of app. It kills every intention to play any game from EA. At first it was Titanfall 1/2, next were Apex, BF3 and BF4. When I decided to install The Sims4 for my wife - experience was exact the same. Nothing worked, after dozens of tries nothing worked. So I decided two things: To not bye games from EA ever again. and to delete and never install this piece of shmak ever again... Can't wait when you at last decide to resign from this stupidity.The EA PC app is still broken after 3 years
Seeing others comment on this and having run into it for the first time, the EA app is a buggy piece of trash on a good day, but today takes the cake. Tried playing Jedi Survivor, no issues until game crashes, send report and try to reopen, EA app refuses to open. I have a game that I didn't purchase on an EA platform, dependant on an app that doesn't work, and I cant even talk directly to support stagf because EA doesn't recognize that I own the game that they won't let me play. Look to old forum posts, and google around. Not one case solved by EA, suggesting that factory resetting your computer is the final troubleshooting option to make their broken app maybe work. The state of the gaming industry today is truely sad. From being EA, its in the game, to this, destroys any good memories I had playing any of your games, and the nostolgia you are hoping keeps us buying your dying properties fades more every day.EA has got to be the worst game launcher to exist
I’ve been playing on EA for a couple months now and I get trouble after trouble continuously. From Anti-Cheat failed updates and me having to do them manually, to constant sign outs, to failed game launches, and all the way to one of my game’s progress reset. I sometimes get errors saying that the game is downloaded in my device but belongs to another user so I can’t launch the game??? Or when it logs me off the account and I plug in my credentials it says that it either doesn’t match or it’s expired, when it in fact hasn’t. EA has to fix all of the above issues. When I apply for support, it literally doesn’t help at all. Please do something about it. If you’ve read all my rant about EA, thank you for ur time. I’m genuinely pissed off
Allow EA app to stay logged in on multiple computers
I use EA app on multiple computers depending on where I'm at, it constantly forces me to offline mode. It's annoying and causes me issues. If you don't want multiple launches of game at once, do it on a game app level. Don't force the whole launcher app to go offline when at another computer
