    @OriginInsider can’t play TS4 atm because origin is suddenly using 100% CPU and causing my fan to go crazy and causing lagging in game. Why is it using so much CPU?

    @OriginInsider Your servers have been down for me for quite a bit. "Online login is currently unavailable." is what I get. And yes, I did try restarting it as well as my PC and I tried fixing internet explorer, etc... Please look into this as I bought Titanfall 2 and cannot play.

    @EAHelp @OriginInsider I don’t think I’m the only one having a problem with repairing The Sims 4. Everytime i try to repair it, Origin uses all the CPU of my computer. And after the sixth or eight SP or EP it gives me an error (327682:12) and my computer freezes completely.
