    @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.

    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 Hello! Im having a bit of trouble after I transferred from origin to the EA app. Now when I try and play the sims 3 or 4 the game won't load. It says the title I have downloaded may have been downloaded from another user. Not sure how to fix this since I only use one account.

    @Crosimmer @EA @OriginInsider I'm also getting a download error. The Sims 3 Fast Lane Stuff, from Origin and EA App download error. I contacted EA and they basically told me to "sit and wait".

    @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.

    @OriginInsider I’ve tried to press the help button but all I’m met with is no help to my issue. This have happened before, but that time luckily I didn’t have any packs so I made a new account. I can’t afford that now, cause I can’t buy everything back again. I counted all the packs I had

    @endme_raw @OriginInsider Origin is a steaming dog **** wrapped in C++. I hate the overlay. I hate the ****** connection issues. But most of all, I hate how so many good titles are chained to that useless platform. Let ppl play your games on non-Origin platforms you *****.

    @MinicartTSR @OriginInsider I opened it earlier today and it worked, but it seems that EA servers have been having issues; they tweeted about it. Does Sims 2 show up in your EA App?
