Downloading of the game reaches level of 60-70% and then it dumps to level of 30-40%.I had the same problem before,but now the recomendations of EAhelp doesn't work.

This kind of behaviour is usually due to players using a Wi-Fi connection. If possible, even just until the download is done, can you connect directly with a cable as this will allow a higher quality connection and should get the download done. There is error correction occuring during the download and if errors are detected then the download process will go back to the point it determines is before any errors and will continue from there.

Which steps did you take? This sounds like it may be a security software blocking issue. Remove and re-add Origin to your Firewall and Antivirus exceptions/whitelist, then try again.

I shut down all my security software and started the downloading again,but dumping repeated,from 93% to 80% and then to 60% and then to 40% during a few minutes.

Downloading completed,but when I start the installation of the game I get an information message:"DirectX setup error: it wasn't succeeded to sign cabinet file(.cab)."

Right click on the game in Origin and then 'Repair Game'. This can fix issues with the game files(cab files included).

unbelievable that you have to post,with no satisfaction coming in speaking or emailing to an actual person from ea games ,they appear to be aloof and cant bother answering you ,they want you to fix their problem,much like a scam artist who takes your money and runs for the hills,good  customer   pr  there.
