@Brunty @danielbadura @OriginInsider I had the problem too. I changed the DNS provider from Cloudflare (1.1.1.1) to Google (8.8.8.8), after that it was super fast. I don't know if it's a routing problem or if you get another server.

I used to like Battlefield 4 but now @OriginInsider has made it impossible for me to play it. I see absolutely no point in having to press play, launch browser, login to battlelog, select game mode, and press play just to wait for the game to even launch which it still doesn't.

@OriginInsider @EAHelp Forced to use Origin. Cant start offline. Acts like malware. Never closes completely. Auto updated a game with no prompt. Caught it and canceled. Now crashes on startup. FORCED to update. Cannot revert to old versions. Mods broken. **** you Origin and E.A.

All I want to do is play @TheSims right now. But @OriginInsider said my login credentials have expired, usually, when that happens I just resign in and call it a day. Nope...not today..so what happened? I tried 3 potential passwords....It's NONE of those, and I cant reset my pw

Had issues with @OriginInsider downloads being slow when using @Cloudflare as my DNS (1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1) (via pi hole) Now my @NintendoUK switch is also downloading slowly using it. Switch to Google DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) and it's super fast. What gives, gaming companies?

@electronicarts @EA @OriginInsider do you normally issue people unwanted refunds when they pay £4.37 for a £34.99 game! Oh just to put it out there it’s no longer on sale and is back to £34.99! And ea support have told me I have to repurchase it at full price. Just a little weird

@OriginInsider Let's not forget their other embarrassment as well; did you know that legit downloads of The Sims Stories, downloaded directly from Origin, require a crack because they won't open otherwise? Lame and embarrassing. Now imagine that + tons of other issues.

@simscars @OriginInsider @EA Totally agree. I tried everything to start the game without internet and nothing worked. This should not be an issue.

@Brunty @OriginInsider That sucks, usually switching endpoint solves issues. Clearly @OriginInsider is using carrier pigeons as their internet connectivity.

(@CutieAnjTwitch) reported
@Crosimmer @OriginInsider i just hate that streaming the sims 2 doesn't give a chance to be an ea game changer >.< they say they "sunsetted" the game and is not possible for any support unless it's like a key code problem... it's really sucky, and i wish they could put it on origin...

@simscars @OriginInsider @EA Some pc's have a way of connecting to your phone to use the internet your phone connects to. There may be issues with what browser your phone uses however. Origin can be picky about browsers.

@simscars @OriginInsider @EA //omg I never even thought about that being an issue!!! If we pay for the game we should be able to download it for offline use!!

So it stormed really bad here and we lost internet. Now I can't play the Sims 4 because Origin is telling me I need to login. There has got to be a better way of handling offline mode for users to play their game. This makes me so mad. @OriginInsider @EA 😔

@OriginInsider i just dont understand how i cannot even launch a game 90% of the time. i have to fully restart my pc to LAUNCH the damn game. why is it that after years and years of having a terrible laucher for your hundreds of games, there is still issues with it that were there years ago

(@KateryneRussell) reported
@simscars @OriginInsider @EA Agreed! After we had an outage at our house, our power came on but not TV or internet. Because of needing to sign in to even play offline, I was left with no ability to game until the internet came back on line days later. I get it that they want to prevent pirating, but still!
