  • samjwilk29 Samantha (@samjwilk29) reported

    Hey @OriginInsider @EA what is the actual purpose of doing a thousand captchas to sign in and play the freaking Sims? Every time? On the same computer I play on constantly? #ItsReallyFuckingAnnoying #PleaseStop

  • aliceandthehare Alice Liddell (@aliceandthehare) reported

    @funnerd10 @OriginInsider I gave up and switched to EA Desktop lol. It’s in Beta mode but so far I haven’t had any issues! Except once it got stuck “updating” a game but when I restarted my computer it was fixed.

  • htte_jonas Jonas Hütte (@htte_jonas) reported

    @EA @OriginInsider @XboxGamePass I cant play the EA Play Games I get through my Xbox Game Pass properly because of issues between EA Desktop and Origin. EA Desktop wont connect to multiplayer servers in multiple Games and Origin wont detect my EA Play status at all.

  • kukuruzka_nua кукурузка осіння (@kukuruzka_nua) reported

    @EAHelp hi, I really want new @TheSims game pack but I can’t do any purchases in @OriginInsider . I get error 54001. Unexpectedly, it works with vpn. Is the problem in my place of living (Ukraine)?

  • MichLovesJensen Mich 🌸 (@MichLovesJensen) reported

    @EAHelp @OriginInsider It worked by now but I have new problems now with the game. Someone from ea answer hq is trying to help me :)

  • otakudontgiveup Otakudontgiveup (@otakudontgiveup) reported

    @OriginInsider you have a bad link on your desktop app. I went to log in and it stated my login was expired or didn't exist and to reset the password. When you click the link it brings you to an oops page. Then the website told me that signing in was not available at the moment!

  • mmarc1n mmarc1n 🥃🎮 *****_*** (@mmarc1n) reported

    @Mcfcjenson @HalilSoyletmez @OriginInsider I have a solution for you problem, delete this garbage and download you game from pirate bay, its simpler and no spyware from EA on your PC. (Im assuming you already have paid for a game you cant play)

  • T_Lethal_ ℒℯ𝓉𝒽𝒶𝓁 (@T_Lethal_) reported

    Just witnessed a cheater in @PlayApex @OriginInsider needs to fix this. Or it’ll turn into @CallofDuty 🙄

  • otakudontgiveup Otakudontgiveup (@otakudontgiveup) reported

    @OriginInsider Your login system is completely down, I can't log in to the website because it is unavailable and when I log in to the desktop it states that my credentials are expired. I only have weekends off and really wanted to game but I can't even play offline. Not cool bro

  • prakhar_mehrotr Prakhar Mehrotra (@prakhar_mehrotr) reported

    Is @OriginInsider servers down? Does anyone know? #ApexLegends #Apex募集pc #APEX

  • Peter201382 Peter Bentson (@Peter201382) reported

    @OriginInsider Keep getting Error 404 when trying to access the new #Sims4 gamepack. I’m sure it due to high traffic. But wanted error to be noticed.

  • Jikookminiiee 𝒴𝒶𝓈⁷ᴮᴱ 𝒷𝓊𝓉𝓉𝑒𝓇💜 (@Jikookminiiee) reported

    @OriginInsider Hi! I'm not able to make any purchase on origin. All are in error, and the purchase is refused. I saw that this has happened to other players before.

  • brokeahhb BrokeAhhB (@brokeahhb) reported

    @MAMA_Jan3 @TheSims This is why you keep your order confirmation emails lol they don't really remove purchased items from your account for no reason and that sounds more like @OriginInsider issue not Sims

  • brokeahhb BrokeAhhB (@brokeahhb) reported

    @MAMA_Jan3 @TheSims @OriginInsider There should be an option on their site to open a live chat and then they’ll be able to assist you further. I’d login to your account and go to your purchase history to show proof you already bought them.

  • boy_strawbery MikeyBoy (@boy_strawbery) reported

    @PlasticGold_ @OriginInsider So I'm not the only one who has this issue.. Got it. But as some stans would say: "The issue with your PC or WiFi, not EA and Origin, they are definition of literal perfection ***"

  • Draelon Thomas Waldrop (@Draelon) reported

    @OriginInsider for the love of all that is holy, if you’re going to force me to use your app when I buy games on Steam, can You at least add an offline mode? I live in the country and have constant connection issues. When I drop, I can’t open your games. Hell.

  • otakudontgiveup Otakudontgiveup (@otakudontgiveup) reported

    @OriginInsider I ended up having to use my phone to access the reset password before logging in but this issue caused me to not be able to play since June 4th and I don't think I was the only one affected.

  • cycoldment CyCo L. DmenT (@cycoldment) reported

    Still can't login, can't buy games...@OriginInsider @EA @EAHelp wanna buy games during your sale, but can't log in to do so #OriginGames #EA

  • avriIgirlfriend Delanie #Rollins Era (@avriIgirlfriend) reported

    @bootypiano @EA @OriginInsider I think this is a glitch. I've seen this happen with people with previous packs

  • BryttniTV Bryttni the Madtagonist🏳️‍🌈 (@BryttniTV) reported

    Dear @OriginInsider please fix your stuff because this is frustrating. My friend couldn't get DS3 to work through steam and now I can't get my DS3's audio to work at all. I just wanted to do a co op stream with friends and this is unplayable.
