<p><span class="autocomment">Related incident to cover: </span> new section</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>== Related incident to cover ==<br /> <br /> DS2 isn&#039;t the only example of EA bricking games, and we should consider covering various games whose DRM doesn&#039;t work anymore after EA changed their launcher from Origin to EA. There&#039;s several reported games that became unplayable strictly because EA never bothered to invest in updating the DRM checks for their games to query the new launcher. I can&#039;t launch Titanfall 2 on Steam because of this shit! <br /> <br /> <br /> Regaining my composure now, here&#039;s a list of quite a few jumping off posts to get you all started with adequate research:<br /> <br /> titanfall 2 - first game I&#039;ve had to deal with regarding this, still has calls for origin launcher in the code, users have to do some mild hacking just to launch the game<br /> <br /> https://www.getdroidtips.com/titanfall-2-cant-launch-game-steam-launcher-fix/<br /> <br /> https://www.reddit.com/r/titanfall/comments/15wiif9/titanfall_2_wont_launch/<br /> <br /> https://www.reddit.com/r/titanfall/comments/18eefim/titanfall_2_fails_to_launchcrashes/<br /> <br /> https://forums.ea.com/discussions/titanfall-franchise-discussion-en/titanfall-2-wont-launch/11441081<br /> <br /> https://www.reddit.com/r/titanfall/comments/15yri58/windows_10_troubleshooting_titanfall_2_not/<br /> <br /> https://forums.ea.com/discussions/titanfall-franchise-discussion-en/i-cant-open-titanfall-2-/11414674 - ea automatically marked this as resolved despite the user in the forum claiming it&#039;s not actually fixing it<br /> <br /> https://steamcommunity.com/app/1237970/discussions/0/3113669366296153075/<br /> <br /> Other EA games - some games that fail to launch were designed as 32-bit applications, and since EA chose to only support 64 bit, they neglected to fix this issue<br /> <br /> https://www.reddit.com/r/origin/comments/vm8fhc/all_games_failing_to_launch_through_both_origin/<br /> <br /> https://www.reddit.com/r/origin/comments/yah72l/unable_to_launch_any_games_on_ea_desktop_app/<br /> <br /> https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/0/4362376160461592641/ - modding the origin launcher just to play older games<br /> <br /> https://forums.ea.com/discussions/mass-effect-franchise-discussion-en/how-to-launch-game-on-origin-launcher-without-steam-prompting-ea-app/9134497 - unnecessary fix just to get Mass Effect Legendary Edition to function as intended <br /> <br /> https://forums.ea.com/discussions/ea-app-technical-issues-en/games-wont-launch/11910196 - The Sims Franchise <br /> <br /> https://forums.ea.com/discussions/ea-app-technical-issues-en/re-nobody-can-launch-their-games-since-forced-client-change-over/7630823 <br /> <br /> Ea only offers a generic AI generated article for troubleshooting<br /> <br /> https://help.ea.com/en/articles/orders-and-rewards/ea-app-game-download-installation-loading-not-working/<br /> <br /> [[User:JamesTDG|JamesTDG]] ([[User talk:JamesTDG|talk]]) 19:58, 11 May 2026 (UTC)</div>
