    Bought the game retail earlier and I still haven't played it because I've been spending the last two and a half hours trying to get the browser plugin to install. The game manager says there's a plugin update I need but after downloading and running the exe it just says installing and sits there. I've tried restarting, googling and just letting it sit there for an hour. I need help. Is there a simple solution? Am I being an idiot or is EA just being shit?

    EDIT: I'm running chrome btw, I'm trying with Firefox now
