I just downloaded and installed the two extra missions (Normandy Crash site and the other one). They install with the steam version of the game, but after that you cannot load any games or start new ones.  

I think they forgot thet STEAM versions require special treatment. I think this is an absolute beginner's mistake, read higly unprofessional. They could easily have added checks. They could gave given other codes to STREAM people. Anyways, some hours of gameplay lost and looks like I will now have to reinstall the whole game. Not acceptable at all for that price.

I advise anybody that bought the Game on STEAM to stay away from DLC, until we have an official statement here.

I installed six different DLCs just fine on my Steam version. Game works just fine, and my save still worked.

Do you have the steam folder on C:\\? Mine is on H:\\. (Double backslashes due to broken forum software.)

My Steam folder is H:/Steam/ and the installer still found it.

Ok, I have to apologize. It is not the DLC. It is the EA account that stopped working in the half hour I did not run the game in order to add the DLC. Starting a new game/loading a game hangs forever now, even after a complete reinstallation. The only fix I found was to remove the game config files and not to log into the EA account. And, yes, my network connection is fine.



I will test next whether a clean install without EA login but DLC does work.
