    @Crosimmer @EA @OriginInsider Things they should do. Make Sims 2 purchasable on EA. And fix Sims Medieval

  • Crosimmer crosimmer (@Crosimmer) reported

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

  • KaytNicol3 katie ✨🦇🌙 (@KaytNicol3) reported

    @Crosimmer @EA @OriginInsider ****, I don’t even get the error pop up it just won’t load… *goes to re-download origin*

  • linenliterature alaska🪐 (@linenliterature) reported

    @Crosimmer @EA @OriginInsider I had this exact problem on my macbook aswell! Texted the EA support and they logged into my account and installed a working version, now everything runs smoothly :)

  • Satans_monster lillith (@Satans_monster) reported

    @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.

  • Mrcus1904 Marcus 🇸🇪 (@Mrcus1904) reported

    @OriginInsider Fix your ****!

  • Crosimmer crosimmer (@Crosimmer) reported

    @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.

  • b00kreader1 burner (@b00kreader1) reported

    @OriginInsider Is origin not working for anyone else or is it just me ??

  • MikeFromPV Pinhead Larry (@MikeFromPV) reported

    @OriginInsider @BattlefieldComm can yall fix the game man? 4 crashes in 2 ours where I have to restart my pc to get back into the game.

  • b00kreader1 burner (@b00kreader1) reported

    @eefuuck @OriginInsider Ugh I’m glad I’m not the only one. I couldn’t tell if it was my laptop or origin itself causing issues

  • CrayMalone Andy (@CrayMalone) reported

    @emma50nicole @OriginInsider @TheSims okay good lol couple weeks ago I had to go through every single folder to find my problem after cc shopping for a few hours and I forget to put something in my test folder... I was this close to starting over again

  • Crosimmer crosimmer (@Crosimmer) reported

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

  • ElisaTheMxSim Elisa 🍋 (@ElisaTheMxSim) reported

    @Crosimmer @EA @OriginInsider I used the EA App some time ago but I went back to Origin because the EA one asked me to log in every single time I used, no matter if I checked the remember me box and it always said there was an error so I had to open the browser every single time. I didn't like it!

  • joshisyourhero Josh Cornprobst (@joshisyourhero) reported

    @OriginInsider Maybe you should partner with 2k so they can teach you guys how to contact people you ban for buying a new computer with your system false flagging people for account sharing, then not contacting people back for weeks if not months on end to fix your own mistake 👍

  • reinhartsdream Joan (@reinhartsdream) reported

    @OriginInsider @EAHelp it’s driving me insane right now… I try to login in my origin account FOR WEEKS. I just bought a sims pack and I can’t play it. If i ask for help all you say is change password and you keep sending me codes but it DOESN’T WORK! Please FIX IT

  • lio_twenty2 Délio Gomes (@lio_twenty2) reported

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

  • Aliridha10_ Ali Saeed (@Aliridha10_) reported

    @OriginInsider hi, any issue on origin login? I'm from Chile.

  • russelljtaylor russelljtaylor (@russelljtaylor) reported

    @OriginInsider @EAPlay why can I not play F1 22 tonight. I did the update and now it’s stuck communicating with online services. Please fix it asap.

  • BipolarVix GamerMom ♀️ Vix (@BipolarVix) reported

    OMG the @PlayApex update on @OriginInsider is so freakin broken for me. Stuck at 7% for 40 minutes .. paused, resumed, jumped to 70% but then once hit 100 it went to another "updating" timer .. 49 minutes since hitting the update button .. still no game

  • masse9466 RoadMan1994 (@masse9466) reported

    @OriginInsider yoo your launcher is completely down. please fix it. it says i have no games on my Origin or points anymore...

  • RoosMarikeKRL R002M4R1K3 ☺︎︎ (@RoosMarikeKRL) reported

    @OriginInsider please fix your **** i haven't been able to log into the sims for weeks😭😭 please Idk what to do at school now

  • 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!

  • JordanHardy655 Jordan Hardy (@JordanHardy655) reported

    @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!

  • Jessicamp1979 Jessica M. Poller (@Jessicamp1979) reported

    @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".

  • Frankimera Francisco gonzalez #ESP (@Frankimera) reported

    @OriginInsider No more playing and buying games @EA this app broken complety all modsfor @TheSims . The people no want app windows suck

  • AdityaJahagir13 Aditya Jahagirdar (@AdityaJahagir13) reported

    @masse9466 @OriginInsider Same issue

  • cosmoscountrys1 CosmosStarStuff (@cosmoscountrys1) reported

    @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.

  • Crosimmer crosimmer (@Crosimmer) reported

    @Jessicamp1979 @EA @OriginInsider It has shown up in my library (although with a download error, because EA) so it should hopefully show up for you soon (for whatever reason, it says The Sims 2 Double Deluxe). If it doesn't work out, there are always ways to get it from other places.

  • Gurlgamer123 Alicia Matthews (@Gurlgamer123) reported

    @Crosimmer @EA @OriginInsider EA wants to push broken crap on us. I hate EA Beta, it always broken and it says I don’t own Sims 4 when I have the receipts to prove it
