Since is been going on FOREVER AND NOBODY HAS DONE ANYTHING ABOUT IT! Sorry for digging this old thread up, but there is no other imformation out there on this subject and I'd rather not create a new thread for this issue.

So this serves as a warning if you want to change your password and own SHIFT 2: don't do it. I really want to change my password at EA before they get hacked too (you never know, they might be the next ones in the list).

However, this is a massive fail IMO, and the next patch better fix that. The solution is to go back again to the old password you had. If you delete your savegame, then you will be able to create a new login. There is no way to change your login in SHIFT 2, at least without losing all your progress. And since there isn't any option in the menus to insert the new login, I was stuck with that stupid error and I couldn't connect to Autolog!!Īfter some searching I found that if you change your EA password, some games might stop working, SHIFT 2 being one of them. When I started SHIFT 2, the game tried to connect to the Autolog servers, as usual, but it would always give me the same error: Password Invalid.

I just got afraid they could hack something else, so I changed the passwords for my Windows LIVE ID, STEAM, Codemasters and also EA Games. It's been about a year since this problem was reported and it is still not fixed.Well, yesterday I had to change most of my passwords due to the recent attacks to Codemasters, Nintendo and Epic Games. The loss of Limited Edition content and promotional content like the Dr Pepper Camaro occurred around March 2018. If you start over with a new save, and log in, you no longer get Limited Edition content, even though you paid for that content.

A few years later, EA or possibly Origin changed the password rules, without any announcement of the pending change, and now players like me that had used all lower case passwords can't change the EA account password back, so now there is no way to log in with a save that has a password that doesn't meet the new rules.Īs posted earlier, the situation is now worse. It wasn't that much of an issue back then because EA hadn't change the requirements for passwords to include stuff like mixed case letters, so a player could change their EA account password to match the Shift 2 password. This was due to a change made on the EA server back in April 2011 or earlier. It can't be changed from within the game. > The same problem with invalid password. This password problem appears to also be a Origin problem that started around 2012, as there were no game updates, so it's unlikely to be a game issue. When I start the game, auto-login just displays 'invalid password', and doesn't provide any option to enter a new password. I have a set of saves made before ever logging in, and a set of saves including the Limited Edition content made after logging in, but the password for those saves is all lower case, and apparently there's no work around. In my case, I also have Dr Pepper Camaro, from a promotion, and it also can no longer be unlocked. Rather than fix the problem, Origin simply stopped selling the Limited Edition of Shift 2 Unleashed, but that means that existing players that bought the Limited Edition may no longer have access to the content they paid for, unless they backed up a save with the Limited Edition content. If you bought the Limited Edition, and decide to start with a new game or new save or any save made prior to logging in for the first time, the Limited Edition content will no longer get unlocked due to a problem with the Origin server that started about a year ago.
