Upstream Service Unavailable (game won't launch) [ Edited ]

[CamoMike63]

I have an EA Play subscription through Steam and was having the same issue. I changed the Origin Game Library Location to the same directory as Steam since it was telling me to download /install instead of play. Once I did this, it updated some files in the "SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\GAME_NAME" directory and launched successfully.

I am not sure if this fixed the issue so please confirm @EA_Mako

This is the first time I have had the upstream service unavailable error so it might have been something on EA's side.

@CamoMike63 Interesting workaround, thanks for posting. This issue is still on our radar, so I'll pass that along.

Thanks for letting us know this seems to be working again otherwise, everyone. Currently it appears this error is primarily coinciding with Steam maintenance, and seems to clear up shortly after that concludes.

If you're running into this error during that timeframe, one workaround that seems to be helping most folks is to launch Steam in offline mode and then try running the game again.

@EA_Mako How do you launch in offline mode?
