If they wanted it to be like facebook, why didn't EA just work with Facebook and build FB into their games instead tongue.gif

Considering most already use FB, it would be a better option for most. Then if the had a plugin/addon for FB that allowed you to view servers and join games with friends you wouldn't need anything else tongue.gif

As much of a pain I find Origin to be, I'm happy that they (or at least they say they) recognize it needs improvement and are willing to do such. I really hope Origin becomes a good competitor to steam in terms of functionality and game variety.

I don't think they have really done much with Origin yet. It's been around since BF3 launched last year, and I can't think of any major updates it has had for functionality.
