    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 @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.

    Didnt realise that @OriginInsider EA app is made by like 2 ppl from an indie studio. Because it definitelly feels like it. Constant issues with "connection" and broken game launching. Not to mention basic UX/UI features completely missing.

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

    @ExodusXML @DANNYonPC @OriginInsider true. It's so bad. Took me 3 days to fix Battlefield 3. Was pretty easy at the end of the day but it shouldn't be this bad in the first place

    @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

    @EA should have stuck with the @OriginInsider app. I had few issues with Origin, but am lucky when I’m able to get my Sims games to load with the EA app.

    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.

  • Fabienne0704

    Dear @EA and @OriginInsider, WHY would you send me to an new EA app, break my Origin (Which was working fine may I add!!) To only make my @TheSims game break!! NON OF MY EXTRA STUFF IS WORKING. The sims had issues before but this just overrules it all. Make it work, I paid for it

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

  • BANG_UK
    Old Man Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@BANG_UK) reported

    @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?

  • LukeDavniero
    Luke Davniero (@LukeDavniero) reported

    @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.

    @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

    @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".

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