I can't update the game
« on: October 12, 2013, 01:24:18 PM »
So, I know that the new patch has been up for a while, but I never bothered to update my game since I don't use launcher to start it. But, now I got movie stuff and when I try to update it it gives me some kind of error. I have to check what it is, but does anyone have an idea what should I do?

Have you tried patching with the Superpatch? It's the first patch listed here.

The first step is to make sure that Origin is updated. To manually update Origin, go to Origin's website and follow the links to download Origin.

If that doesn't help, again, use the Superpatch. If you're worried about your dynasty files, move them to your desktop before you patch. That holds true for patching via the Launcher as well.

If you move your files to another area on your computer, (I have mine in a folder on my desktop) your dynasty file will be safe.

You want to always do this before a patch or installing a new EP or SP.

Thanks to everyone who commented but I've tried again since the new patch has been released and it worked properly! :))
