    @Crosimmer @EA @OriginInsider I’ve been in beta test for the new EA application and I’ve had some minor issues here and there but it’s generally fixed pretty quickly. Might just be bugging now that everyone is being forced to switch over at once.

    @OriginInsider I have been trying to log in all day to purchase some of the Sims 4 Expansion Packs on sale. Just had an error saying “Sign In Is Currently Unavailable” Now it looks as though the sale is no longer on… And there’s still no way to sign in?

    @OriginInsider @EAHelp @EAPlay Please fix KotOR and KotOR 2 so they work with widescreens by default. It's a little ridiculous that I have to do extra work to play a game and have it not look like garbage. You should be able to at least play it widescreen by default.

    Has anyone else had issues with @OriginInsider not allowing your payments to process if you've made several purchases already, no matter the card you use? I tried 5 different forms of payment and I was trying to load my guy up on @TheSims sale.

    @DANNYonPC @OriginInsider I had to create a batch file to launch the EA launcher just so I could stop the background service that keeps running after you exit out of the EA app.

    @OriginInsider you really need to fix your app. We shouldn't have to uninstall all of our @TheSims packs just to uninstall one ******* pack. LET US PICK AND CHOOSE WHAT TO UNINSTALL!!
