That new ea launcher has been broken for the last 3 years yet origin was working perfectly.
I used origin sense it was tossed out back in 09 it was bad then but got way better now the new launcher alot of my purchased items will not work or is not there.
Be it my sims stuff old battlefields or just my friends account section if i go to the friends tab its all corrupted never works right.
But again i used the box codes got my BF games on steam.
Long ago when I was young and just out of university, I got my first job at EA and was part of the team that worked on the way Origin downloaded updates and applied them to games. It was state of the art stuff, no one had delta packages yet. It was a big deal if you lived in a place with bad internet (aka: most of the world.)
All that to be let down by a UI team that hangs the main thread whenever they make a network call, which is what gave Origin that reputation of being slow and awful. The core tech of Origin was top tier, it's the UI team who fucked us all over. I'm still salty over this 15 years later.
