yes, I together with everyone else have experienced the same problems, since the blasted thing was released and EA has been aware of it since it released the crap onto the market. The only thing that you can do is to do not buy any more EA products until EA can demonstrate to the market (users), that they have addressed the performance issues, by removing the dictionary, addressing the issues associated with the online playing of the game, and fixing the user interface.
