The game control and pack Opening
Your game control are not good and I can't win any of the match. your **bleep**ing is so bad that I open 3k gems pack everyday and I don't get the max ovr players i need to exchange with shards and that lost all my new and so many gems. And my friend who comes in the game rarely and he get max ovr players from 2500 gems pack. Thats not good for a person how play every day. I short i want to say that you need to change the game control and the pack Opening system.
EA App vs. Origin - Who did it better?
So, after the Origin workaround got removed, I have not had the desire to play much of EA titles. Why? Because the EA app launcher is a mess that has never worked right for me. Game overlay: Origin - Worked fine in every game that supported an overlay. Chats, friends list, game invites, options to join games. All was there. Even a rudimentary web browser. EA app - Serves to only display friends list and chats. Does not allow for joining games, feels clunky to use. And worst of all, it has never worked properly for me in older games, like Mass Effect 3 and Dragon Age Inquisition, so I can never host lobbies that my overseas friends can join anymore, since those games require a working overlay to manage the in-game invite function. Friends list: Origin - Had support for up to 400 friends, if I recall correctly. A healthy number. I had around 200 friends on Origin. - Very similar to how Steam and other launchers manages the friends list. Supported game invites and joining games by right-clicking on the friend you wanted to join/invite, or joining games directly with the nice blue button. EA app - Has a hard-cap of 99 friends! - This is some real BS, which means a lot of re-adding if old friends wants to catch up. No support for joining/inviting friends' games. - This functionality is present in every other game launcher available. Steam, Epic, Ubisoft and so on.. All of them supports game invites and joining through the friends list. Hell, even the CONSOLES has a join/invite function through the friends list. Come on EA, we live in 2025. This functionality should be a given. UI Origin - This was probably the weakest point of the old Origin launcher, where the UI was pretty much the same throughout its lifespan from 2011 and all the way up to the end. But it was functional enough, and easy to use and understand. It did not have a nice dark mode though, as it was mostly white, and the performance was all over the place, with frequent hangs. But it had a much more comprehensive settings menu. EA app - Looks nice and modern, and performs rather well. It feels more complicated to use compared to Origin, and the limited launcher settings tab is hidden behind your name. Library Origin - Showed every game you owned, including those that were part of the EA Play program, if you had previously been a subscriber. This made it easier to re-subscribe since all the games were in your library to download and play for a later date. Origin also supported trial version of games. EA app - Does not show all the games all the time, no trial versions, and any EA Play game you had in Origin is not present. Overall Experience Origin - Functioned as any other game launcher on PC. Intuitive to use, and had every function you needed from a game launcher. Granted, it was prone to hanging and crashing, but when it worked, it worked really well, and it felt like an EA version of Steam, in every good way possible. 9/10 - It had its issues, but it was a serviceable game launcher. EA app - Has not been a great experience in the slightest. The launcher is too limited, and lacks any form of basic functionality you would expect from a game launcher on PC. It feels more like a storefront page with a game library and a tiny friends list tacked on. 3/10 - While it looks and performs well, it does not serve its functionality as a game launcher should. My personal recommendation is for EA to implement a 400 friends cap and the functionality to invite/join games through the friends list, as ANY NORMAL GAME LAUNCHER HAS. That would be a start at least. Any thoughts from you guys?Things take a little longer to load than usual...
cant play any EA games................ ever since i did the pre alpha run in the new BF game i cant connect to the EA app none of my games will load up ( even if i install em through steam)IF they have to connect to the the app then i have a good chance the game will not run and i have done literally every thing down to manually allowing the apps connection to the internet......AM I BANNED?D or something......cuz im starting to think that i am banned CM edit: edited title for clarity.
Terrible App
Every time I try to play, it needs to update. This is already annoying but is made infuriating when it will not update. It takes quite a while to get to 2 or 3% before failing and giving an error message. I never wanted this stupid app to begin with but have to have it installed to play a game I've already purchased... if you are going to force people to use it, the least you could do is make it work properly. By the time I get done fighting with it, I'm either no longer in the mood to play or I've run out of time to. I've already tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I played this within the past two weeks... I used to purchase every Sims expansion pack and add on but you've made this such a nightmare that I'm completely done.
EA app feedback(mods)
I wish that the EA app would be more friendly towards mod managers and custom software/mods for games. I am trying to launch dragon age inquisition through frosty mod manager and the EA app is blocking me from doing so. Its not like I'm hacking the game to cheat my way all the way to the end game, I'm just trying to add stuff to the game. EA app is just impeding my progress. No where else to get this game besides through EA so make it modable please?Button to locate installed games
Hello, I'm opening this thread to let you know that it is incredible that in 2025 there is still no button to allow players to locate installed games like we were able to do with the Origin App. There are thousands of threads on this forum about players unable to select a folder where the game is already installed, forcing them to install the game again. I hope you will take this into consideration. Thank you.EABackgroundService Feedback
Hello, Current: EABackgroundService service will automatically stop within about 1-2 minutes after the EA App fully exited, if correspond settings in the EA App are turned off. > The current situation may be frustrating due to privacy concerns. Expected / Feedback: There should be an option in the EA App settings to do that stopping EABackgroundService service without any delay as soon as the EA App fully exited. Thanks.
