Hey @CXYPRO

 

The CD-key of your friend's is bound to his own EA Account, even if he plays through Steam. You can't just take that CD-key and bring it over to another account and expect it to work as the keys are bound to a single account once used.

Hey @CXYPRO,

 

technically yes, but please be advised that sharing an account is against EA's Terms of Service.

 

If a product code has been redeemed on an account, it is tied to this account and the owner would have to log in with this account in order to play the game.
