@JUSTBECAZ Moved this to the Origin forum as it sounds more like an issue with Origin then the game itself

Is it still not working for you ?

If it's not, could you check if your security software isn't blocking the connection ?

Good Luck

Hey @JUSTBECAZ I've seen users fix this issue in the past by trying the following steps:

  • Open you control panel.
  • Select Internet options.
  • Click the connections tab and at the bottom of the window click on LAN SETTINGS.
  • Make sure that you uncheck the option Use a proxy server for your LAN.
  • Click Apply.
  • Close Origin and restart your System.

Let me know how you get on.
