I've used it and had less problems with it than Steam. I also find it to be faster as well.
Or do you just not like it because it's "Cool" to hate EA stuff these days?
Steam does the very same thing for almost every game out there. Unless they go on sale.
The only reason, repeat, the ONLY reason I use Origin is because EA has dissallowed their newer games to be activated on Steam due to the competition factor I'm sure. That's understandable but why did EA have to go and try to make another "Steam" in the first place by implementing Origin which will never take off and become as big as Steam... ever.
2. Origin gives me 48 hours to return a game I have purchased no questions asked.
3. There is nothing wrong with Origin. It's just another client and it works fine. My download speeds are also faster under Origin.
Steam is a far better service no question about it but Origin gives me no issues.
ea's prices... wow really
&
why oh why can't it store my login details... i click "remember me" every time, never works.
Also Orign is not bad at all... it got lot of hate most of all as of the start that was not good really.. but they fix and got better....
Even more i will not want Valve to buy EA
Ubisoft is not even close with UPlay and i think Orign is the closest thing there is for a race with Steam.. what mean it can punch (Why i cant find the right word XD) Valve to get Steam better (like support and stuff
Sure, I've got the disk space; and it doesn't hurt me to have them sit there until I decide to play the game. But it's the fact that I am FORCED to have it that counts. Why is that program even necessary? There's nothing wrong with having it there if people want to download it and buy their games off of it, but why make those that buy the game through other means go through it?
Furthermore, that's time wasted whenever I have to sit through a client update just so I can play a game that could be played without it.
I bought SimCity and was severely disappointed that it had to be connected at all times. I don't want to sit through 3 hours of downloads before I can play the game just because they want me to play on their stupid little server. I want to play by myself.
Mercenaries 2 was unplayable for the 360. Another result of having to go through their servers before you could play. The game froze 5 seconds into the main menu. After multiple workarounds, I finally found one that would let me through... But that's beside the point. I shouldn't have to jump through hoops to play a game that I paid money for.
Might as well call them Zynga with their multi-transaction practices in Star Wars: The Old Republic... I think that game could have trumped Warcraft if they had of handled it right. At the time of it's release, Warcraft was just starting to lose some of it's player base. If SWTOR had of come along with fresh gameplay, and a properly handled business model; it would have dealt them a serious blow. Instead they botched it by adding their little money making scheme.
EA has done a good job with their purchasing of as many subsidiaries as they have. I think this is what has kept them afloat for so long. When they see a studio that makes good games, they buy it. This keeps them supplied with the hottest games, and leaves us customers to either do without; or bite the bullet and deal with their antics to play. What can we do when they are pumping out that Mass Effect game that we want so bad?
We just have to grin and bear it...
and many of EA's work force make games or comercials for the games . EA has a ton of overhead . legal fee's from the odd legal dispute with another company like activision or who ever and there bread and butters going stale (madden and some other sports franchises) . fifa is the only one with growth .
and then you have the attempt to prove there more than just a sports game developer . while that little experiment has given them a larger user base it also has spread there work force thiner and it shows in more recent games they have made . its not like they will vanish but there not that profitable and even the previous ceo admited as much .
they suffer from the same problem that capcom has . they make to many games . they should learn from bethesda and rockstar and just make a few games that sell really well . you know there core franchises . especially since the new consoles have so little to chose from that almost anything for sale will sell . they should be working on just 2 games but the sports line up alone prevents that . and origin is kind of empty so they are going to make lots of so so games most likely to fill it out and to hell with the @$$ effect fans and there QQ about red/blue/green ending or what ever it is there wana cry about for the next one
This. This is another reason why my heart is with Valve. Besides, they gave us the Half-Life series also!
@Gila, I like your thinking. It's not really a hate I have for EA or Origin but it's more of inconvenience forced on us due to EA wanting every penny. The problem here is that the only way for EA to become like Steam and have a plethora of titles from numerous publishers is to open their doors, deal with making less money on game sales, and cater to indie devs. These things will never happen - never. For EA, there is no turning back. Their executives make far too much for the company to loosen their reigns.
As far as microtransactions go, that has to be a fad that will die like Myspace did when Facebook came. Something has to come along and just make people realize there are better options! The thing I hate the most though is content that should be part of a game that is released in "season passes" or "premium editions" of games. EA has been notorious for this longer than Activision has but both are just as guilty. I wish gamers would open their eyes and see how much bullshiz that is. It is absolutely insane that we should spend over $100 on a game that should have had the maps and features that come with the "premium" at game release. Make the game, give us all it should have and move on to making a new game! That's how things should be! OK. I gotta stop. I can go forever on this. :)
Personally i dont hate Origin atall, i like the way the games are presented in DVD sized images, thats cool.
However! I HATE HAVING TO USE MORE INTERFACES THAN I NEED. Thanks to Origin, when i launch a non steam game (origin game) I have to wait for origin to start up and then i may have to use the mouse and keyboard to select servers or whatever, yes sometimes i like to play Battlefield 1942 with a xpadderd 360 controller. or BF3/BF4 with a controller if im feeling lazy using Big Picture.
You know whats stupid, the fact we still use multiple platforms to play exclusive games... I dont believe we need publishers to compete this maliciously in order speed up the evolution of gaming, in fact i think we're only slowing things down... more people would game if they didn't have to face the choice between PS4 XB1 PC, It shouldn't matter, everything should be cross-platform. We shouldn't have to choose between these privatized networks where only a select amount of friends are available, or a select ammount of servers are. We need to invent a way to disable keyboard & mouse on some servers, so we can have Controller only servers, that fixes the imbalance issues with cross-platform. KB+M servers should just allow both, sometimes i fancy a challange, although you should see me play with a controller on Half-Life 1 Deathmatch
