Why i write the post
I want to share my experience to attract EA managers and open their eyes about the experience there is on market.
Long story short
Bought bf1 on steam to play it on geforce now, but after several launches i can't play it , because EA 'shmesecurity' 'safes' me from hacks and doesn't allows me to sign in.
Long
I love battlefield 1 - played it on ps4 and paid for EA play just to play F. ONLINE ( multiplayer ). Anyway, i can understand that they 'needs the money to cover support and servers costs' ( while pc gamers doesn't needs hmmm.... ) . But story not about that...
Once ( 1 oct 2021 ) geforce published that bf1 available - I bought without discout bf1 on steam and played like 2-3 times ( different launches ).
Playing it on GN is pretty good... ( has small 0.1 ms lag - but the lag is acceptable ).
But after 3rd launch i got error "Too many connections to the version of battlefield on your account.... blah blah blah".
I started to investigate and try to fix the problem.
After searching Big brother i found posts from 2020 and even 2019 about same issue. People suggests to change password / add email verification / google verification app .
With big problems like:
1. no emails about verification from EA side comes.
2. not working google authentication barcode
3. Stupid verification before each verification, after you already verificated into account...
i made verification "On".
So, i though that i have possibility that the problems ended. BUTTTTT....
After trying to sign in you will get stuck problems like "connecting to origin" window, or no coming emails from EA, or same "too many connections".
Supports
As mentioned before, even forums posts are from 2019-2020 - which means the problem ignored ( from EA side ). Created ticket ( waiting for reply - "not our problem - it's security from hax0rs - who uses single account with one purchased game for multiple pcs" )
Geforce support - "not our problem - EA problem" . While advertising the EA games in geforce community. In result they will have more reports about the problem in future ( stuck support - lower quality of support - lower money .... and so on.. )
Cloud gaming
As could gaming progresses , i think the companies must adapt and add functionalities to make experience better.
Simple ( geforce ips white listing ) could solve such simple problem.
p.s. Received emails 1-2 hours later. ( reason? i guess alot of users tries to sign in into game )
EDIT 2021.11.04
Recently noticed that I finally can open game multiple times per day. Possible some fixed was made from their sides. Thanks for them if so...
