Typical EA (Electronic Arts) problems

An editorial list of typical problems, not based on live user reports.

  • EA app does not sign in If the EA app cannot connect while other sites work, a firewall or security program may be blocking it, so allow the app and retry. Guide: ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT
  • Online games disconnect Repeated disconnects in EA online games can come from unstable Wi-Fi, so test with a wired connection. Guide: ERR_CONNECTION_RESET
  • Game servers unavailable If an EA game reports that its servers are unavailable on several networks, the problem is likely on EA's side, so look for information on EA Help and wait. Guide: 503 Service Unavailable
  • Account website sign-in loops When the EA account website keeps asking you to sign in, remove the cookies for ea.com only and try again. Guide: ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS
  • Platform account not linked Some EA games on PlayStation, Xbox or Steam need an EA account linked to the platform account, so check Connected Accounts in your EA account settings.

General fixes: Gaming

  1. Check the game and the platform Online play can depend on the game's own servers and on the platform, such as PlayStation Network, Xbox or Steam. Check both where a status page exists.
  2. Restart the console and router Turn the console or PC and the router off, wait briefly and turn them on again. This renews the network connection.
  3. Run the network test Consoles and launchers have a built-in connection test that shows your NAT type. A strict NAT can block multiplayer even when the internet works.
  4. Let updates finish Games and launchers can require an update before you can sign in. Let downloads and patches finish before you try to play.
