PatchInstallationProblems

[ThisPartBlank]

Sorry if this isn't posted where it should be.

I bought the download version of Ambitions from EA's website. Took a couple hours to install.
:turtle:
Finally downloaded. It was fine. Then I needed to install patches for both the base game & ambitions. So I was letting that finish. I'm pretty sure ambition's patch downloaded fine. The base game said something went wrong during downloading of the patch & said something along the lines of try again later, via the launcher. Okay, fine. So I try to open the launcher & it tells me the base game is not compatible with my patches or something. Then the launcher closes by itself. If I try to open the launcher via the ambitions icon - it opens but does not load. So launcher doesn't work, no matter how I open it.

I've since uninstalled Ambitions. (please tell me that is good? I would hate if I've uninstalled that & it didnt even need to be.) And nothing has changed. The launcher still closes.

I can't tell you what version patches, because the launcher can't display it for me as of late. I know I had the recent base game patch 12.whatever.

:cry:
