Key points
- The game will use any connected webcam for various online features. There is an option in-game to turn off webcam use.
- Neither the 'Cops and Robbers' game mode and cars nor the 'Big Surf Island' DLC packs were released for PC until the remaster.[1] See Vanity Pack.
- Online servers shut down permanently on August 1, 2019.[2] This means the DLC will no longer work as you have to be online to use it.

Invalid product key
- Upon attempting to log into an EA/Origin account in order to play the game online, some users encounter the error "The product key you are using is invalid". This occurs if you are using a retail version of the game which you have registered online via Origin/EA Download Manager. The game recognizes that your CD key is already in use (on Origin), and thinks it is invalid.
- The only solution is to download and reinstall the game via Origin.
Controller not recognized at launch
- Delete controls.ini in folder
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Criterion Games\Burnout Paradise
, and restart game.[7]
- Delete controls.ini in folder
