Apex Legends download from the EA app is bugged
https://forums.ea.com/discussions/ea-app-technical-issues-en/apex-installation-failed/12156125 I'm not the only person with this issue, and I posted the other forum post above. Seems like with the release of S25, Something is wrong with the installer. I do a fresh install of the game when a new update comes out because I've had some weird shader bugs in the past so now its just a habit with each release of a new season. This go round I and a few others have gotten a "The final stages of installation didn't go as planned." error message. I went through to do all suggested fixes and none of them worked. I just recently tried to install Sims and that, however, did work. So it seems to be an issue with downloading and installing Apex directly through the EA app. Info: Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor 4.70 GHz Installed RAM: 32.0 GB System type: 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor Edition: Windows 11 Pro Version: 24H2 Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 12GB Storage: 3.64TB
Game crashes upon death
Bug Report: Battlefield 2042 Crash on Death Animation So earlier today I started back playing Battlefield 2042 after not playing for about a year due to the new Dead Space collab with the new Outbreak mode. However, I'm having a serious issue where every time I die, right as the death animation starts to play, the game freezes and crashes immediately with no error message. This happens in all modes. I've looked online and seen others with similar issues. Some reported that deleting the cache folder for the game helped, but it was only a temporary fix — the issue returned within 30–45 minutes. Since deleting the folder didn’t help, I decided to reinstall the game, even though it’s large. Unfortunately, the problem got slightly worse: it started freezing even faster, sometimes before the death animation even starts. I then consulted ChatGPT, which recommended analyzing the crash dump file using a program called WinDbg. I did so, and shared the analysis with ChatGPT to interpret the results. ChatGPT Response Summary: Root Cause Summary: The crash was due to an Access Violation (0xC0000005) — specifically a read from a null or invalid pointer (0x0000000000000008). Crash Details: Module: amdxc64.dll (likely part of AMD graphics drivers) Function: Boost Serialization (boost::archive::detail::iserializer::load_object_data) Crash Reason: Attempted to read from RCX + 8, but RCX was NULL (0x0), leading to a crash. Contextual Clues: Crash occurred while BF2042.exe was running. Involves amdxc64.dll — a common AMD GPU driver library. Occurred during Boost serialization and DirectX 12 GPU pipeline operations. Likely Cause: A pointer used by the AMD graphics driver during deserialization or pipeline setup was NULL, causing the game to crash. So at this point, having done nearly every troubleshooting step and even running diagnostics with the help of ChatGPT, this is the closest I’ve gotten to an explanation. Hopefully someone from the developer team can help investigate further. And yes, before anyone asks — I did try switching the game to run in DirectX 11. The same issue persists. System Specs: CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT RAM: 32 GB DDR4 OS: Windows 11 Home, 64-bit Driver Version: AMD Adrenalin – latest version as of May 2025 Troubleshooting Performed: Verified game files via Steam Reinstalled the game Updated GPU drivers to the latest AMD version Set game to run as administrator Disabled all overlays (Discord, Steam, Radeon) Disabled all background apps No overclocking is done on this system
Madden 25 team builder: Cannot download user made team, "Try again later" error.
Gonna try and post this every day so this gets traction. Seeing it start to pop up more and more and can see it's been a consistent problem for awhile. Cannot download created team from madden, try and try and just get try again later error. I've reset my internet, repaired the game, recreated the team and nothing. Hope ea can fix this because my buddies and I want to do a 15+ man fantasy draft create a team franchise and most of them don't have it yet. Missing out on dough because you're too lazy to fix something. 3/17/25
Enchanted by Nature isn't showing up in my game!
I have done everything possible, I have updated, uninstalled, reinstalled, deleted, cleared cache, repaired, everything and the enchanted by nature is not showing up in my game. I purchased it and it says that it is in my library and is installed but still will not work.White Logo and Field 2 Weeks No Patch
This is ridiculous, EA messes up an update and causes an issue, but instead of acknowledging and fixing the issue they act like there isn't an issue. The white logo and field is now heading into week 3. This is why having one company monopolize NFL and NCAA content is bad for consumers. They are the only game in town and they don't care if the product is mediocre or just plain bad. I don't give it too long before EA is sold or taken over by another gaming company due to falling revenue caused by bad business practices. Trust me this type of bad corporate practice in the gaming world never last. If that happens, the EA Sports management team will be let go. So keep up the bad work guys.
"You Don't Have Access"
Hello! I logged into the EA app tonight to play the Sims 4 when I noticed there were 2 new kits available for purchase. I looked into them and liked them so I purchased them. When I went to download them I got the following error message: "You don't have access We've paused the download because you don't own this title. You can cancel the download, keep it paused, or visit the Game Hub for more options." I have tried a bunch of different things to solve this issue, all to no avail: cleared the cache for my EA App restarted my computer double checked that the purchase went through successfully cancel download & try again (have done this 5-10 times tbh) opened the store in-game hoping I'd be able to download from there or that opening & closing the game would reset something to allow me to download cleared a bunch of space on my computer & tried downloading again in case space had been the issue I'm SO incredibly frustrated at this point. I genuinely just wanted to contact a support agent or something at this point so someone could fix this for me but I can't even find an option to message with anyone but the AI robot. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!Madden 25 team builder: Cannot download user made team, "Try again later" error.

Time to fix your games before we all stop playing
EA this is getting ridiculous. An issue that's been in the game for over 2 years is still not fixed yet you guys keep dropping new games and adding cards to ultimate team. People spend a lot of money on release to get what should be a finished game but instead we get games filled with bugs. People are constantly on forums and trying to get help from support but it seems like your own staff has zero clue what's going on. This is beyond frustrating. I grew up playing EA Sports titles at a very young age. Some of my favorite memories growing up involved playing Nhl, Fifa and Madden back when your company actually gave a **bleep** about their users. Over the last couple years you guys continue to put out half completed games with little to no fixes and updates. This is very disrespectful to the community that supports you and allows you to have a paycheck. You all need to wake up before its too late. This community is hanging on by a string and when 2k and other major competitors start making these games again I'm afraid you will lose your thrown and maybe even the business. The fact I and many others can't even play offline modes like career mode in Madden and its been like this for over 2 years with no permanent fix just explains it all. EA doesn't care anymore. Clearly your either hiring uneducated employees that have no clue how to code anything properly or you guys simply don't care and only focus on adding new cards for people to purchase on ultimate team instead of focusing on the gameplay and bugs that never get attention. I promise you if this is how you guys are going to continue doing business your fan base will leave and you will no longer be the company you are today. I have a family member who works at your office in Vancouver and even they know EA has zero respect for the community that built it. CEO's and management only care about their big bonus at the end of the year and their employees get under paid. This whole company is run by corporate morons that have no business running something they aren't passionate about. Please for the sake of the community that built you, do better.
