Honestly, agree. I'm not sure if they're being supportive or if we're being trolled.

Maybe a little of A and a little of B?  I feel like if they wanted us to know they were working on it, someone would come out and actually say, "Hey this is getting development time!  No ETA yet but it's definitely getting worked on." 

 

Though that can bite them in the a** if they don't deliver... so maybe just granting 85XP on a post is there to make us feel better.  Who knows?

I'm having this problem too.

 

Linked an xbox 360 tag years ago and now two console generations later... that means I can't link my Microsoft gamepass account.

 

Seems very bizarre. I assume the backend is a mess, I can't see why this would be a security feature.

I actually think that is a bot account that's gotten confused. I think I've seen it add XP to 'solutions' across the forums. Perhaps in this instance it thought this post was marked as a solution when it isn't.

 

Could mean something, could mean nothing.

 

Yep, it's been nearly four weeks now, and we've heard nothing definitive one way or the other, which is disappointing. As you say @thekurse it would be better if someone just came out and said hold tight, it's on our to-do list, nowhere near the top, but it's there.

 

Still no changes to the unlinking accounts page since early February.

Saw a post over on the EA Play PC forums that they might be working on a fix:

 

https://answers.ea.com/t5/EA-Play-PC/ea-team-or-working-on-a-fix-for-pc-game-pass-liking/m-p/1023775...

 

Could be hearsay though. Kind of a "Heard from a guy who heard from a guy" situation.

prolly a troll, their thread is random when they could have posted on the 13 page thread instead.

Does seem like an odd thing to create a whole new forum thread about, but then I'm sure there are lots of frustrated people out there.

 

I don't know how easy this thread is to find.

 

I just don't have the time to go on the chat to ask about progress and policy changes proactively, but maybe something is happening.

 

Absent any new information from anyone officially, we live in hope!

@Gaycob Nothing yet. I'm wondering if there's a changelog we can view anywhere for updates to EA Play services / EA Desktop app?
