[HOWTO] Disable EA App overlay
EA Desktop won't allow you to disable its overlay when launched by Steam.
There are many guides how to do it and all of them are about deleting/renaming igo64.dll in EA App installation directory.
I think it is not reliable method because any EA App update may cause it to break without this library or it may just put this library back, so you will have to delete it again.
EA App stores its settings in the following path:
users/[user]/AppData/Local/Electronic Arts/EA Desktop/
there is an .ini file, which name starts with user_
All you have to do is adding the following line into this file:
user.igoenabled=0
Done! Now you can play without overlay.

Why?
Well, if you don't expirience any problems - you probably don't need this.
Some people saying that with overlay enabled fps is lower.
Also some players (mostly on Linux, as I can tell) suffering from the achievement bug: in-game achievement causes EA App to crash and Titanfall crashes too. Disabling EA overlay helps.
