Thesame thing is happening to me and a lot of others on the forums I see, I launched Battlefield V from steam and the link2ea app pops up then closes and I get the something went wrong on our end message and if I try and launch the exe file as administrator it says I dont own the title . I played it for almost 15 hours and suddenly when I was forced to install the EA app my EA games on steam wont launch

If it works I will buy it again from EA its on special currently but I saw some people that bought it on both Steam then EA and it still didnt work . I think it is something with the new EA app not recognizing that we own Battlefield .

If I click play on my battlefield 5 in steam it will not launch it will just open my EA launcher and say there was an error on our side please try again later and then it will proceed to cancel my process of opening the game and it makes me repeat this process and it just never opens never had this problem with origin just the EA launcher which is awful

Same thing is happening to me glad to see its not just me but a lot of people in the forums are having this issue . It happened when I was forced to install the EA app since then I keep getting that error or if I try and launch it through the exe file it says I dont own the title

So on with the problems, I get to the point where it shows the play and exit screen (the screen before launching battlefield 1942), and it then says: "Do you want to allow this app from an unknown publisher to make changes to your device?"

(The "legacy" XP-level DirectX support needed for this game just isn't enabled by default in modern Windows platforms any more. "Sometimes" Windows is able to show you a dialog that prompts you to do this when attempting to launch the game; but sometimes you're just stuck at a blank screen and the game simply doesn't launch due to absence of DirectPlay.)

If that doesn't address whatever you're still seeing, when you say "nothing is working" after downloading and installing using the link provided via PM, what exactly is "not working"? The download? Attempting to install after successfully downloading? Attempting to launch the Battlefield 1942 game after successfully installing? And at whichever point it's "not working", what happens instead of the thing that was expected?

Just wanna add that running older games on Windows 10 can sometimes be a challenge. The prompt you're seeing is due to security settings.

Try these steps:

1. Right-click the game shortcut.

2. Go to "Properties" and "Compatibility."

3. Check "Run as administrator."

4. Apply and OK.

7) Click "Ok" and EAC will install for you. You should receive a User Account Control pop up asking to allow it to make changes to you device, if you are not running as admin. You will need to click "Yes"

Some players are encountering an Ashbeard error when trying to sign in to their Microsoft account on the PlayStation5 version of Sea of Thieves. Please run through the troubleshooting steps below to resolve:

REMEMBER! Be mindful that you are using the correct Microsoft account during the linking process, as if you accidentally link the wrong Microsoft account, we are unable to unlink this account.

If you have been recently playing on another platform, such as Xbox or Steam, please wait 10 minutes before launching the PlayStation5 version. This allows our back end services to clear your credentials so that you can log in successfully. Otherwise, please run through the rest of this article.

Press and hold the power button until your console beeps. The screen goes blank, the power indicator flashes white, and then turns off. Remove the power cable and leave the console for 20 minutes. Reconnect the power cable and press the power button to turn on the PlayStation5 console.

REMEMBER!Be mindful that you are using the correct Microsoft account during the linking process, as if you accidentally link the wrong Microsoft account, we are unable to unlink this account.

If you are shown any errors, blocked or blank results for the above tests, please reach out to your ISP as your network may be blocking the necessary connections required to play the game.

Clear local saved data from PlayStation console and relink your Xbox Live account:

***Important - Please ensure that you know the Xbox Live account login details used to link to your PlayStation ID before completing these steps

Some players have reported intermittent stuttering and performance issues since Easy Anti-Cheat was implemented into the game. This issue is happening specifically with PCs that use ASUS motherboards.

After attempting to link your Xbox Live account to your PSN ID, if you receive the Avacadobeard error preventing access into the game, please check that no restrictions have been placed onto either of those accounts preventing online access via the accounts privacy or family settings.

After confirming the above is correctly set for both your audio input / output devices, as well as your Xbox Live account privileges, any crew chat issues should now be resolved. If the issue persists:

As players need to access High Sea's to receive their closed beta rewards, if you do not own a subscription to PlayStationPlus, please use the the 'Raise a Support request' button at the bottom of this article for further assistance.

If you wish to report a player directly to the PlayStation5 enforcement team, or you are receiving forms of toxicity outside of Sea of Thieves such as through the PlayStation5 chat feature, please use the following methods:

When searching for game sessions, players can specify whether they would like to perform cross-platform matchmaking and also those on console can specify if they would prefer to play with other console players using a controller.

As your Sea of Thieves account can now be used on multiple platforms, you may notice that some items will show on one platform while not another. This is due to certain items now being platform exclusive.

Any progress towards a trophy first made on Xbox, Windows, or Steam will not carry over to PlayStation5, therefore the requirements for said trophy need to be met from scratch on PlayStation5. This is due to how trophies are tracked on this platform.

Please ensure that the game is installed on the console's internal drive, as this will eliminate any potential issues caused by external drives. Reinstalling the game may also help, if the above steps do not resolve the issue.

Sea of Thieves is now optimised for Direct3D 12. On most PCs the game will run with the default Direct3D 12, but older hardware may not fully support it and should automatically run with Direct3D 11 instead. If you find you need to manually switch to Direct3D 11, there are three options described below:

Workaround: Please install the game on the console's internal SSD, or an expanded high speed SSD. A standard HDD is no longer compatible with the game on these consoles.

If you have both of these, when you click the \"Link Accounts\" button on the Pirate Perks page, you'll be presented with the following screen asking you to link your Sea of Thieves account, to the Rare Store account. It will look similar to this:

You will notice that some merchandise will require you to have a certain amount of progression in a specific Company. For example, the \"Registry of Goods\" t-shirt will require you to have reached level 50 with the Merchant Alliance. You can see your progress underneath the item's picture. The button will remain locked until you meet that requirement.

Should you wish to order an item once it is unlocked, click the \"Order Now\" button visible beneath the progress bar. You will receive a notice stating you will be leaving the Sea of Thieves website - clicking \"Continue\" will then take you to the Rare Store where you can view pricing, sizes and then complete your order.

When finding a Captain's Logbook, the contents can sometimes appear blurry or washed out. While these water damaged Logbooks are unreadable, this is intended and these affected logbooks are still just as valuable to the Reaper's Bones company once they are handed in!

Since hot-dropping last month, Helldivers 2 has quickly become one of 2024's biggest PC and PS5 games. Arrowhead Game Studios' intense co-op third-person shooter has attracted thousands of fans that are ready to do their part and live out their Starship Troopers fantasy by blasting hordes of Terminid aliens and Automaton robots to smithereens, and it's breaking records for PlayStation Studios games on PC.
