Time Nudge
After the last couple of updates my game is entirely unplayable. I am getting time nudges as high as 900. I have tried adjusting everything revolving around CPU, lowering everything to low, capping framerate, every fix I can find online has not resolved the issue. I have no problem with any other game I play, and I play quite a few. All I can figure is this is a client issue. My specs are AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12-Core Processor (3.80 GHz) 64gb of RAM AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT (16 GB) While I know I am still running AM4, I was running the game with no issues prior to the last couple updates.
timed out error
Hey, I tried finding a way to contact EA Support but can't find anything, so I'm posting here. Problem: Whenever I try to join any multiplayer match in Battlefield 6, I receive a “Timed Out” error. The game launches fine, menus work, but I can’t connect to any game. This has been consistent for the past 5 hours. Info: Playing through Steam on a Windows 10 machine. Troubleshooting I already tried: Restarted PC, router, and modem Verified game files in Steam Flushed and renewed network stack Disabled firewall/antivirus temporarily and allowed EA + Battlefield through Windows Defender Checked NAT type and enabled UPnP on router Forwarded EA/Battlefield ports manually Tried multiple DNS servers (Google and Cloudflare) Removed external USB drives and devices Tried alternate routing via VPN (NordVPN) Ran traceroute/ping tests to EA servers (easo.ea.com, battlefield.com) → packets reach EA edge nodes, but game still times out Tried launching directly through EA App, but the game doesn’t appear in my EA Library even though it’s linked and installed via Steam Unlinked and relinked Steam ↔ EA accounts Reinstalled the game and EA Desktop app Cleared EA cache Repaired the anti-cheat instance Current status: The game installs normally and I can launch it. The EA App doesn't start automatically, and when I join a game, I get disconnected within 10 seconds. Thanks in advance for any help!
Madden 26 Franchise Feedback Review (For Madden 27)
Franchise Mode Feedback Understanding that EA will most likely wont review this feedback, I wanted to share my perspective as someone who has played Madden’s Franchise mode for a long time. After spending a significant amount of time playing Franchise mode, it’s clear that this year’s Madden has taken a positive step forward in several areas. There have been meaningful improvements that show progress toward making Franchise a deeper and more enjoyable experience. However, there are still areas where the mode could be improved to better reflect the strategy, realism, and long-term depth that many Franchise players are looking for. The following feedback outlines several features, fixes, and quality-of-life improvements that I believe would strengthen Franchise mode and improve the overall Madden experience. These suggestions focus on areas that could make roster management, player development, gameplay realism, and immersion feel closer to the real NFL while also making Franchise mode more engaging over multiple seasons. Stat Tracking & Player Evaluation Improvements Franchise mode needs deeper statistical tracking to better reflect real NFL performance and improve player evaluation. Pass Breakups (PBU) Rename the current Pass Deflections stat to PBU (Pass Breakups) to match official NFL terminology. Defensive Back Advanced Stats Yards Allowed Catches Allowed These stats would allow users to better evaluate cornerbacks and safeties. Defensive Line Advanced Stats QB Hits Pressures Practice Squad Improvements: Add an option that allows veteran players to be placed on the practice squad like in real life. This would provide more roster flexibility and strategic depth. Injured Reserve Bug Fix: There is currently a bug where players placed on IR cannot always be activated even after their injury period ends. Equipment Updates Mouthpieces Baggy long sleeves Hand warmers Pads Camera & Presentation Improvements: Add more broadcast-style camera options for gameplay and improve camera options for users who prefer simulation-style Coach Mode. CPU Trade & Roster Logic: CPU trade logic CPU player release logic CPU draft logic Running Back Pass Blocking Issue: Running backs sometimes fail to engage defenders in pass protection and allow rushers to run straight past them. Quarterback Gameplay Additions: Improved QB Sneaking Add animations where quarterbacks dive forward over the pile, similar to real NFL QB sneaks. Pump Fake While Scrambling Allow quarterbacks to pump fake while running outside the pocket. Weather-Based Equipment Presets: Add automatic equipment presets based on game conditions such as cold weather games, rain games, and prime-time games. Currently, coaches and players sometimes wear unrealistic gear (such as short sleeves in snow games), which breaks immersion. Formation Visibility Setting (Online Franchise): Add a setting that allows users to disable seeing the opponent’s formation. Rookie Draft Class Improvements: Draft prospects should have deeper background information including: Total college snaps played Combine invite status Expanded scouting reports In-Game Presentation Improvements: Add more broadcast-style stat updates during games such as: CB has allowed 2 catches for 18 yards today QB has been pressured 8 times Super Bowl Champion Recognition: Currently, the player profile sometimes shows “Super Bowl Champion” only for quarterbacks. This recognition should apply to all players on the roster regardless of position. Any player who wins a Super Bowl should have “Super Bowl Champion” listed in their career profile. Smarter AI Logic: Overall AI decision-making should be improved across both gameplay and franchise systems including: Play calling Clock management Trades and roster moves Player development Scheme & Coach-Based Abilities: Abilities should be tied more closely to team schemes and coaching staff. Currently every team can access the same top-tier abilities, which reduces team identity. For example, if a team historically develops offensive linemen well, their coaching staff could have development XP boosts for offensive linemen. Expanded Mentor Tag System: The Mentor tag already exists but only applies to a small number of players. The system should expand so players automatically gain the Mentor tag after a certain number of years in the league or after reaching career milestones. Team History Section: Add a Team History feature similar to the League History tab where users can view past season records, playoff results, Super Bowl appearances, awards, and key team statistics. Individual Stat Upgrade System: Allow users to upgrade individual player attributes directly instead of only improving broad skill categories. For example, a system similar to staff points where users could invest points into specific attributes such as QB accuracy or RB pass blocking. Draft Board Customization Improvements: Franchise mode should bring back the ability to fully customize the draft board order similar to older Madden titles. Users should be able to manually move prospects up and down the draft board to create their own ranking system. Team Lineup Presentation: Bring back full team lineup presentation graphics like older Madden games featured. Before the game or when a unit takes the field, show on-screen graphics displaying each team’s starters. Player Analysis Should Use Stats, Not Just Overall: When clicking on a player and viewing the analysis section, rankings and comparisons currently appear to rely mostly on Overall (OVR) ratings instead of actual on-field performance. For Madden 27, this analysis should be based more on real performance such as season stats, recent games, and league rankings so players are evaluated based on how they are actually performing. Rework or Remove Certain Abilities in Franchise: Some abilities feel pointless or too powerful and should be removed or redesigned, especially for franchise mode. Nothing in football should be guaranteed, and some abilities create unrealistic outcomes. Some abilities make sense, such as Quickdraw, since quarterbacks often develop faster releases as they gain experience. Another good example is Sleight of Hand. In franchise mode, it could increase the success rate of pump fakes overall instead of only working against zone coverage. On the other hand, abilities like No Look Deadeye do not make sense for franchise mode. No quarterback should have perfect accuracy on all cross-body throws up to 20 yards. Nothing in football is perfect, and abilities should reflect realistic advantages rather than guaranteed results. Abilities could also be more progression-based, similar to coach abilities with bronze, silver, gold, and platinum tiers. Players could upgrade these abilities over time based on their performance, making development feel more earned and realistic.

I purchased Country Kitchen Kit about 2 years ago. Now that it is free on Marketplace, I am unable to access it offline. Will this problem go away after the free download period is up, or is this a problem I will have to deal with from now on? This started yesterday when I downloaded the latest update. I have no mods or cc downloaded. I first got a message on the EA App around the middle of March saying that the kit was removed due to fraud (it was not). Thank you.Can't find any of my packs or add-ons
I don't share my account with anyone or have been hacked and i lost 1500+ hr of in game hours in the sims 4 and all of my packs and add-ons the only thing it says i own is the holiday celebration pack and I also lost the sim and the sims and the sims 2-3 and it’s showing the last things that I bought and installed, but it’s saying I don’t own nothing no mods in game either
Madden 27
I'm sure someone is hiding these, but if you're in some way sensible, please take some advice, and dont buy the next game. I'd be willing to bet that streamers put in more hours in the game during drop week than the devs who test it. Which is why you'll keep being disappointed after your hype from getting a new roster update wears off. Just dont be a fool, to be honest. Unless you literally can't live without playing this game, which I'd advise you to talk to someone who actually cares about you if that's the case, dont buy this slop. If you have the willpower, hold out three months, and you'll have an infinitely better game in GTA 6. There's nothing Rockstar could do to GTA to make it worse than a Madden, in my opinion.
Cannot Update
Long story but want to make sure I give you all the details. I play on a PC, ASUS. Wednesday night, May 13th (I had not updated yet) I tried installing reshade. I had issues and it couldn't install so I followed directions in creator video to uninstall from my laptop. Next day I played in the morning fine. In the afternoon I tried to update and I am getting the message below in the May 14th screenshot. I have tried turning off Trend Micro completely. It didn't work. Tried clearing my app cache thru the EA app. Tried running EA and then tried the Sims 4 thru properties as an administrator. I have tried adding the Res folder and tried adding the EA Game folder to the Trend Micro exclusion list. My Firewall is set to allow EA and Sims thru. I restarted my computer in between these steps when it doesn't work to see if that will help. I checked the EA app but do not have an option to repair my game. I tried playing offline but that gives me the 200 error in the May 15th screenshot below. I did have OneDrive on my computer when I first tried to update. I have since then followed a youtube video to move my Electronic Arts folder out of OneDrive and then uninstalled OneDrive. Still not working. I do not even see the file ts4_x64_fpb.exe_dip_staged in my EA Games / Sims folder anywhere. So I am guessing I need to get that back. Please help because right now I am completely at a standstill and cannot play my game at all.
