HELP

I RECENTLY PURCHASED COMMAND AND CONQUER :THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION. I DO NOT WISH TO PLAY THESE GAMES ONLINE JUST TO SIMPLY PLAY AT MY PC. ALL I GET IS THE ERROR WE CANT DO THIS ANYMORE MESSAGE ON YOUR WEBSITE AND THE SOUNDTRACK FROM THE DISC.

You have to download it first. After that, the games work offline.

 

Except C&C3 and its expansion, I think. Sorry, C&C4. It has an "always-online" type copy protection :-\

That is completely false. It is now 2023 and EA supports still tells me "We are working on fixing your issue". Maybe for a period of time you could, but you sure as Hell can't anymore.

@bmabe1944 I have tried and tried to play offline with no success. It plays online ok so obviously I have downloaded game. After selecting 'play offline' as per EA advice, an error message appears sayng cant connect. Only time it works offline is by having an internet connection in first place then select go offline which completly defeats the object as have no internet as thatswhy want to play offline.
Very disappointed RUBBISH

i got the Ea pass and played C&C remastered for a few hours, then all of a sudden it would not load, just spinning blue circle that locked up my pc and required restart.

Went to a location with fast internet and the game played again fine there. So i purchased the game so I could play it offline.  The game still does not load even though i own it now.
