Hey @Atsik101 

Would it be possible to get a screenshot of the error message?

Also, when you have a moment can we give the following a try?

• Repair your game via the EA App - Repair (Library > Tile Dots > Repair)
• Verify the game in via your Steam library
• EA App's Cache (Top Left Menu > Help > App Recovery) 
• Connection and Advance Connection Guides 
• Check for other applications that may be limiting EA App or Game performance
• Run the System File Checker tool, then Check for Windows and GPU updates  
• Check Drivers, Default to High-Performance GPU: Troubleshooting Graphics issues
