work around for terrible EA app

[Blodorn]

It seems I am sucked into every bad thing that happens to this game.  If an upgrade is going to break some things in the game, it breaks everything in mine. This latest EA debacle is no different. I cannot load the game, cannot see it in my library, nor any of my hundreds of dollars of packs and DLC and CC.  What the hell? Is there any way to work around this or at least get it to launch? I cant do anything with this mess and am about to just delete it all and say hell with it.  EA is killing their golden goose by disallowing access to games we have all paid good money for. I for one, refuse to buy anything else from EA.  Any help will be appreciated.

Might have to exit the EA app and sign back in. I had the same problem the other day.

I have some solution (not very good, but effective):

1. Before turning on Ea App, turn off the internet (cable or turn off the network card - blocking the firewall is not enough).

2. Start the game from the shortcut (Ea app will start immediately in offline mode) and the game will start.

3. After playing, turn off Ea App and close all processes in the task manager and turn on the Internet.

4. When you want to update the game, turn on the Ea app with the Internet.
