    Hey, @OriginInsider - can you please let me buy a pack for my friend? I do not have issue with my payment method, nor is my account empty 😭

    @EA games are supposed to be fun. Logging in with your app is the most frustrating thing ever. I never had this issue with @OriginInsider . @TheSims we have to go back! I can't play your games. I've spent WAY too much money for this to be a thing. Give me back disc's!

    @OriginInsider Why must I log in to Origin to play offline games? Why must I update it to play offline games? Why does the update screen patronise me by smugly professing how fast its downloads are, when this intrusive and unnecessary update is the very culprit behind my problem?

    @DANNYonPC @OriginInsider at least they're not blaming the user in that error, that's a nice change

    @OriginInsider Your client is absolute trash and fails to load games over and over. Please hire a team to work on this infuriating client. I have zero issues like this with @Steam, for example.

    @KaytNicol3 @EA @OriginInsider No, it should stay the same. But we can’t even download it from EA App because it throws an error.

    @ilkerk77 @EASPORTSFIFA @OriginInsider I’ve had the same issue, can’t switch plates and the player I’m locked on just runs in a straight line. Is so frustrating and only happens since the patch!

    @OriginInsider This app is terrible doesn't work for Sims 2 & Sims 3 had issues had to go & download the old Origin app.... Now can't buy any packs ether from Origin that's fine.

    @OriginInsider @OriginInsider I can sign into my account, but origin won't load. I can't get ahold of Customer Service. Any Ideas?

    @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.

    x@mirA (@x4m1r4) reported

    @redalpha23sims @TheSims @OriginInsider I will try it too. I have repaired it yesterday. But somehow, this might be a glitch? Imagine that if one can download all the DLCs for free?

  • Celestial_Wolf_

    Why is it taking so long to fix Orgin? All I want to do is update Sims 4 and play but I can't and don't tell me to try downloading the EA app because I already did and it's not loading up. Please hurry and fix this. It's very frustrating and disappointing. @OriginInsider @EA

    @OriginInsider Are the Origin servers down in Louisiana? Can't log on for 2 days now. Says Login server not available

    @Jessicamp1979 @EA @OriginInsider As for TS3, many players have been getting download errors since late August, but it worked for some on EA App. Maybe it hasn’t been fully fixed yet.

  • PalaminoPS

    @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.

  • Crosimmer
    crosimmer (@Crosimmer) reported

    @Jessicamp1979 @EA @OriginInsider And you get the download error even when you try downloading from EA App?

    Folks if you launch @thesims and it takes an inordinate amount of time to launch, gives you a "white screen" on start-up, and/or is unplayable due to in-game lag...save yourself a headache & CLEAR THE @Origininsider CACHE!!

    @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!!

    @OriginInsider What is happening to your login system? can't receive the codes on my email, can't even receive new credentials while creating a new account. A 5 yo girl wants to play simcity and nothing happens with the login system. please help.

    @EAHelp your guys app sucks just let me keep @OriginInsider 🙄 Uninstalled your **** cause my games kept crashing, had no problems with Origin and now you guys are forcing us to download your ****** app 😒

  • TheTomorrowSim
    TheTomorrowSim (@TheTomorrowSim) reported

    Reinstall @OriginInsider again. Hoping that Origin fixes the problem but I doubt it. it could not fix the missing Expansions of Sims 3. Now off to get rid of cache, follow EA steps from pre-written texts... however, the last 14 hours that I have done this - THE STEPS DON'T WORK!

    @OriginInsider “The origin store is currently disabled because blablabla…” fix you app! This unacceptable! @EASPORTSFIFA @OriginInsider
