Remember to close out the application when you are done playing on EA Access

If you just switch apps to say, watch TV, the app will still be running in the back ground, and your play time will run down. Giving a heads up before people make threads about how EA ripped them off on Friday, how they only played for an hour the night before , etc. If a mod wants to clean this up and temp sticky it, that may also help.

I have given up assuming anything. Do we actually know that we can use our 6 hours incrementaly? It could be a case where you start your game at noon and your 6 hours is up at 6 pm. Its not an outlandish thought

i was kind of wondering that myself. also, lets say it's mid way through the 2nd quarter when you timer runs out.

also, now what happens if i spend an hour setting up my game the way i like, is the save carrying over?

Re: Remember to close out the application when you are done playing on EA Access

The most reasonable assumption is that it tracks the time you have the application open. So if you play an hour on the first day you'll still have 5 for whenever, but if you spend an hour setting the game up how you like you'll only have 5 left.

This is probably a stupid question but how do you close it?

All I want to know is if the 6 hours is limited to just one user per console or if I could create profiles to keep playing until the release date.

Hopefully its 6 hours from completion of the download, not from the start of the download. Also, hopefully when I get off It stops the timer.

I might wait a day to download it to make sure I know all the time constraints. Such as is it only game play. How to exit it so it's not running in the background. Etc
