Linking with steam [ Edited ]

[Cypekna100]

I have just bought Titanfall 2 via steam and I can't play it because the game wont let me link it with steam. I have got an error message which. I tried to link it also via browser and ea website, still same error. Did anyoine fix this? Absolutely ridiculous I am forced to play game via external launcher.

Hey @Cypekna100,

What error are you getting when you try to link your Steam and EA account? Could you share a screenshot?

You can translate it as "something went wrong"

@Cypekna100,

And you're getting the exact same error when you try to link via our website?

I assume that since this is the error you're getting when you try to start Titanfall 2, your Steam isn't already linked to an unknown EA account. I found an older thread that mentions that you can get this error if your Steam name is really long and/or has weird characters like brackets in it. If your Steam name is really long, can you try changing it to something shorter to see if it'll let you link then?
