I was promised spectacular crashes... and it did, that's why I can't play the game.

The game and its launcher are broken on a fundamental level.
Please do not buy any EA games, they DO NOT launch properly

Burnout Paradise is a great game, but under the umbrella of EA, Origin and how they treat customers, i cannot recommend this game, nor any other EA game.

"EA App is controlled by another app and some features were disabled", the error i get over and over again, launching any EA game.

Wether its from Steam or EA (I strongly assume EA is at fault, not Steam) games simply show up briefly, maybe launch into the loading screen, then crash. EA App shows up again and for a split second, shows the aforementioned error. Is it just me or is it depressing that the company that sells their own games on different platforms is unable to make its own games work and launch? I can't put it into words. Please do not buy EA games, their Launcher is broken in its core. I would have loved to play some BP but no, no BP for me

Yes maybe it works for some but the issue is wide spread, has persisted for long and covers almost all EA games.

I tried:

Reinstalling EA

Reinstalling PB

Clearing the Cache

Logging out and in

Removing EA via Revo Uninstaller

Making a windows defender exception for BP and EA

Running EA and BP in compatibility, DX9, 10, and Administrator mode

Removing the Environment Variables

Removing the Cache Folders in "Electronic Arts" and "EADesktop"


DO NOT give EA any money

Very nice Burnout-Game. Remsastering did not affect it in a negative way. Stunts and crashes I liked a little more in the older Burnouts, but all in all it is very entertaining. Free roam through the city all in all makes much fun. Most events are fun. Very nice soundtrack
