This is absolute gold, 249k downvotes. Maybe this time someone at EA will listen? Oh, wait... Incase anyone was wondering, the record holder for most downvotes ever was 24k and the guy literally asked to be downvoted.

Source: https://kotaku.com/ea-temporarily-removes-microtransactions-from-star-wars-1820528445 After getting the lowest score in the history in Metacritic, with the user score of 0.9 , I believe gamers have made their voice loud and clear that loot box are not welcome to stay especially for full price titles. Hopefully this will deter other greedy developers from implementing loot boxes in their games.

The Belgians authorities has opened a investigation on EA for their Star Wars BattleFront II game, claim where loot boxes are not gaming. https://wccftech.com/ea-claim-star-wars-battlefront-ii-not-gambling/

I tried to buy it from origin but after register I was not able to login. It stated login service is unavailable. Is there other way to purchase it? Trying to find it on steam but steam didn't sell it

This happends from time to time that origin wont open, it wont show a error message or anything nothing happends. When that happends i also cant open up amd adrenaline software. Does someone know a permanent fix for it instead of me needing to uninstall all games and launchers to maybe fix it?

I've just spent 30 minutes re-securing my email and origin account. Changing codes on my 2FA, passwords for my email and origin. The reason: I got an email saying that Origin Access accepted my code for a one month sub. The only problem? I didn't do it. Ironically (read unsurprisingly), the link in the email to cancel OA doesn't let you cancel, only change subscription type and billing. So I started the long drawn and complicated process of trying to contact EA and make sure that if I was hacked, to cancel all subs and payments. Then all of a sudden, at the bottom of the page I was reading... instructions about your free month of OA. FFS, they could have said it was a free gift, now how the hell do I get back 30 minutes of my life, spent wasted trawling their crappy system trying to find WTF is going on.

My origin account was hacked, they change email address and password and username so I no longer have access to it Tried to recover it with simple email. No email was sent. Tried contacting EA and they say need my email of my account (no chat for some reason) I created a new account and was surprised that I can still use same username and email as my old account was And then one day... I found out that you can talk to an advisor to fix the problem. I was sure the there were no chat before. How did I end up with an advisor? I asked on the EA question forum how much Mirror's Edge Catalyst cost in Canada. It cost same as USD? What? Anyway they say you should talk to an advisor about this problem He or she (I think I need a site where you can put name and they will tell where it is originated from and whether it is female or male) helped me and solved the issue So this guy has hacked my account but didn't able to do anything much. I can tell he is a hacker because I speak Russian (don't ask me why or how) He got a FIFA 17 demo. Wow you hacked an account just so you can play bf3, medal of honor (2010) and nfs hot pursuit. Based on the play time he did not played at all or any. (4hrs, 6hrs...) I also did not keep any money on my account too. So he/she (I will use it to save time don't hate me) asked me for confirmation code on orders that I made purchased before. Good thing I don't remove any email (except email confirmation that I bought skins from Steam and I buy/sell a lot of them) I was able to track down some of them. Too much On The House lol. Then it asked me for my email and name which I provided. It asked me for a security question too. Thank god it was an easy one. At one point it even gave some emotional phrase too. I thought help should be neutral? Harsh Its sad indeed how ill-intentioned person creates a new way to disturb fair gaming experience. Well said Harsh! Well we went on with the chat. We set up new security question and recovered email, recovery code and stuff like that. At one point, Harsh said to me Harsh Do you play Fifa as well? So in my mind I was thinking: He is asking to play FIFA with him? Is he going to say. Here is my account name, you can add me and we can play together sometime That's weird Harsh Oh, in that case if you play FUT mode, we may need to get it secured. For those who don't play FIFA, FUT is an online mode where you build a team of different real life players and compete with others. Well I wasn't expecting it at all Well at the end it said HarshThanks for contacting EA chat support. Have a nice day! It was 10:50 PM should it be have a nice night? They can see my IP address very well so they know where I live. It's not hard to know what time is it at my place. So guys. EA is not bad as you think. I actually gave up on EA gaming when I lost account even though the game mentioned was not expensive (BF3 was on discount for 5 dollar I think and rest are from Steam that I copied my key over except Mirror's Edge not Catalyst though) Oh and also I talked to an advisor to ask how much ME Catalyst cost. Answer: they don't know. Well but they told me that it is CAD. Why can they just put CAD 39.99 or $C 39.99 why $39.99 to confuse the hell out of people especially those living in states and Canada. Also the game cost 39.99 USD too what the hell?? Oh quick tips, for contacting them I got a 15% discount code that is valid till the end of the month. Don't come here and bash me for not getting a code because I don't think it will work for all.

Why are Titanfall 1 and 2 using an engine that obsolete? There nothing that can even match the Frostbite 3 on that engine except of modding and customization (Things that are coming with Titanfall) I won't play of theses games but the curiosity is killing me and yeah, I know Source has been one of the most powerful engines ever created. Sorry for my English

I got bf4 and waiting for bf1 now bf hardline standard is for sale for 5 is it worth it. Just wanted to check if people still play standard edition with original maps and modes that come with it because in bf4 i have premium and mostly there are servers based on some dlc and not many servers left for standard bf4 gameplay.

Hi. (I am sorry if something like this is already on the forum.) I play a few games on Origin, and the last few times I've tried to get onto Origin using the Windows program, the 'Online Login is Currently Unavailable' error on my login window. I have tried the turning off proxies (even though they weren't even on) and I've restarted the machine. Any help is greatly appreciated! -Alpha.

Will the new Need for Speed game for PC come to steam? right now i can only buy it for Origin.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pY3hlQEOc0&index=1 The new gameplay trailer has me really excited for this game. Lots of small but valuable details are presented. Such are animations for entering / exiting vehicles, along with the reload animations for stationary weapons. Not to mention the beautiful engine on the (I think) biplane. Hopefuly the game will have good mechanics, and wont lack in content like Star Wars battlefront did.

Just a little update for those that havent watched the Battlefield stream. (https://www.twitch.tv/battlefield) (600.000 viewers, 100k on youtube, and 500.000 on twitch.) Update: Release the 21th October So, it is now official that the new battlefield will be Battlefield 1. (during World War 1) Trailer in spoiler: Looking forward to the game, trailer looks great. They announced that there will be planes, tanks, Zeppelins, boats and horses. Add more information in the comment. And yes, you can blow everything up. "we love destruction" - DICE. Updates: - There will be more weapon customization. - There will be horses.

whats the difference Battlefield 1 standard vs deluxe. last game i bought was bf4 premium which included all the dlc. Battlefield 1 does not have any premiuim so does the deluxe have all the dlc or do i have to still buy season pass when dlc are out. one last thing , is it cheaper+sensible to buy dlc after they release as i am thinking of pre order standard edition which is a lot cheaper.

i am currently locked out of my fut account on fifa 14 and 15 on my pc and can not find a way to reset the password. so my question is if i buy fifa 16 will i be automatically locked out of my fut account or will i be able to play on it

Greetings. I'm halfway through my playthrough of Dragon Age: Origins, and it's quickly risen to the rank of one of my favourite games of all time. However, I had to mod it extensively to take the age off it (pun intended), and while I succeeded, the experience leaves me yearning for more- both in terms of continuity and gameplay. I'd very much like to play Dragon Age: Inquisition as soon as I'm done, but I'm unaware of any method of acquiring the game without purchasing it on Origin, which is something I'm averse to. Especially with their $5/month subscription-based model, and even if I purchase the key elsewhere, their downright silly DRM measures are something I'd like to avoid. However, I haven't yet resolved to boycott EA in any way possible, and would still very much like to play the game. I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to purchase the game without Origin. Would torrenting the game files be legal if I purchased an activation key from G2A.com? Or is it off to look for a physical copy (and 20GB of updates)? Thank you for your time. Regards, Aereldor.

Hi. I have had yet another bad experience with Origin. I bought Titanfall for PC to try it out and of course it requires Origin. I go to launch Origin to register the game and Origin's servers are down. Seriously, the one time I want to do it your f**king servers are down! Oh well, that's why we have Steam. Let me know what you think, Alpha.

So I was trying to access my games on Origin when I got an error message "The product code you have redeemed for SimCity does not support the current selected language. Please contact customer support for details", this happened to all my games. And so I tired all the "ideas" the tech support guy gave me and in the end he thought of this Idea' EA Let's try to get this issue fixed for you. EA But I would share that while fixing this issue, it might be chances that your game progress vanishes. EA And there is no way for us to recover the save. EA So, is tat okay for you? WTF!! i HAVE TO DELETE ALL MY SAVE GAMES FOR A ISSUE THAT THEY LET HAPPEN! I asked for compensation and got all of these excellent ideas for games. EA I had a word with my supervisor and I can offer you Sims 2 for free. Oh, I get a free copy of the Sims 2, oh wait that game has been out for 12 YEARS!! So we moved on, EA Now I have a list of games from where you can choose Medal of Honor Warfighter Battlefield 3 Mass Effect 2 Dead Space 2 Dragon Age: Origins Oh I yes i get more of the games EA is throwing away in these "On The House" sales they have. EA Alright, I'm providing you a list of games please select any one which you want. EA Amazing Adventures Series Alpha Centauri Escape Series Mystery P.I. Series Bejeweled 3 (available on PC & Mac) Bejeweled Twist Crusader Series Dungeon Keeper Theme Hospital Syndicate (1993) Lands of Lore Series Populous Series Ultima Series (Note: Excluding Ultima Underworld) Mass Effect 2 Dead Space 2 Dragon Age: Origins Wing Commander Battlefield 3 SimCity (available on PC & Mac) Medal of Honor Warfighter The Sims 3 (available on PC & Mac) you again i am sorry to tell you that most of these games will just sit on my hard drive and annoy me, I want a game that I can play that I haven't done anything in. I don't want a point and click game. In 2014 alone EA made $1b in DLC alone. you have being paid by the hour as for me I have been at my computer thinking about the save games i cannot access anymore and the old games that you are trying to sway me with. you I wish i could make this easier but I do have a lot of games you and did you really think that Syndicate (1993) will get me your forgiveness They offer me a game that was released in 1993 and the game that I already am having issues with and games I can play on mobile, but they said I get to pick one of these games from this exceptional section.

PC Requirements listed - Pretty generic minus the recommended memory... http://www.gamespot.com/articles/star-wars-battlefronts-pc-system-requirements-reve/1100-6431176/ That's a lot of memory... the data sets pushed from disk to memory and the game engine must be huge. Anyone with a 6 Core Processor will see much better performance considering its on the Frostbite Engine too. Minimum PC System Requirements OS: 64-bit Windows 7 or later Processor (Intel): Intel i3 6300T or equivalent Memory: 8GB RAM Hard Drive: At least 40 GB of free space Graphics card (NVIDIA): nVidia GeForce GTX 660 2GB Graphics card (ATI): ATI Radeon HD 7850 2GB DirectX: 11.0 Compatible video card or equivalent Online Connection Requirements: 512 KBPS or faster Internet connection Recommended PC System Requirements OS: 64-bit Windows 10 or later Processor (Intel): Intel i5 6600 or equivalent Memory: 16GB RAM Hard Drive: At least 40 GB of free space Graphics card (NVIDIA): nVidia GeForce GTX 970 4GB Graphics card (AMD): AMD Radeon R9 290 4GB DirectX: 11.1 Compatible video card or equivalent Online Connection Requirements: 512 KBPS or faster Internet connection

My personal opinion is slightly in the nay category but would like to see others thoughts, also don't click nay if the reason is a failure to work due to gpu issues

Okay I was gonna test it on my laptop and I saw it say press enter to start but I spam enter and nothing!!!

Been thinking about trying Battlefield. Wanted peoples opinions and pros/cons edit: i'd like to just get one over the other if I do get one

So some servers going offline today (mainly EA) and Phantom squad says that there taking crap down. What do you think? Connection? Honestly though i think that phantom squad is a fake trying to get more followers and not taking down servers when they said they were going to.

Whenever I play battlefield 4 (Haven't tried with other intensive games) part way though the AMD graphics driver stops responding, obviously crashing the game. I have been running a GPU temp program alongside gaming and it never goes above 65°. The usage is usually around 95-99% and the graphics card isn't overclocked. Other times it comes up with an error which reads: Application (Battlefield 4) has been blocked from accessing graphics hardware. I've attached the errors below. My system: I5 4690k (stock) 8gb ram sapphire r9 270x gigabyte b85m-d3h corsair cx500m Radeon Software Edition Crimson Windows 10 HELP.

I can't .. how!?!? people do buy into this crap?! I guess they do :unsure:
