It was not until I turned the overlay back on that this problem ceased occurring.
This began to occur after turning off the obnoxious in game Origin overlay (which would minimize the window to show my achievement gained). However, the next day, Origin began minimizing my Battlefield 1 window randomly. I preloaded and played Battlefield 1 without any issues on launch day. Certain times the two systems would work beautifully other times the applications appear to hate one another. Origin and Battlefield 1 have a strange working relationship. The real issues I had with Origin reared their head when I was playing Battlefield 1. Aesthetically it looks fine, but could use some work in user friendliness. Simple things like accessing my Game Library took a bit of digging. The layout takes a bit to get acquainted with and comes off counter intuitive at times. The new update changes Origin, but not really for good. When I did log in, I was greeted with a bunch of updates. First things first, I had not been on EA Origin since Dragon Age Inquisition. Before I dive into Battlefield 1’s multiplayer I thought I would share a few. I mentioned in my Campaign review that I had some gripes with EA’s Origin platform.
