Mass Effect Andromeda Missing Online Access
Hey I keep getting the missing online access error when launching MEA. I've tried every solution I can find online with no success. Clearing temp files and EA app license, reinstalling the app, etc... Is there anything else I can try?Solved352Views2likes18CommentsME 2 legendary edition on steam launching issues
ME2 legendary on steam: when in the settings at the main menu, selecting different areas of settings ie gameplay, video settings etc, they all just stack on top of each other instead of loading new individual menus, so I end up with all settings menus overlaying each other and they're unusable. When ME 2 starts it automatically starts the beginning cutscene with Shepard as male there are no character selection options available at all . Iv tried reinstalling the game, running the steam file verifications etc. ME 3 legendary worked fineSolved74Views0likes9CommentsWe could not activate Mass Effect 3 on this computer
A couple of nights ago, I tried to play Mass Effect 3, and the EA app opened a window that said We could not activate Mass Effect 3 on this computer using the origin account you provided. please locate your product key to activate the game using your origin account. !? I have owned this game for many years. I contacted EA and the person couldn't fix the issue. I got a really stupid idea that if I bought it on Steam, I could play it. Well, no. same message. I contacted EA again and because my original copy disappeared my from my library replaced my a steam copy, I could no longer prove I owned the game and I was refused help and basically called a liar when i said I owned it. Sure, there was no purchase history for the game but my son bought me the trilogy as a gift many years ago. Ok, fine. I bought another copy from EA, thinking this would solve the problem, but no. The copy i had just bought is not in my library and so, still no product key and no solution. I was directed to come here and post as many details as I could to try to resolve this since I will never get to play ME3 ever again if i can't get this mess fixed. someone, please help me with this.Solved109Views0likes7CommentsMass Effect Legendary Edition
Hello. Is it possible to play Mass Effect Legendary Edition offline on Steam? When I launch the game on Steam, it redirects to EA and requires connecting to the network, before that I set the offline mode in EA. It still doesn't help. What should I do? Or is it impossible to play offline? Please help!!!43Views0likes3CommentsUnable to start ME3 from the LE launcher
I had ME LE on EA app and had already finished ME 1, ME2, currently half way through ME3. However, today when I launch ME3 through the launcher, it appears to be loading at first (ME 3 Shepard loading picture followed by a green planet loading background), but then it returns back to the LE launcher menu. I tried multiple times but ME3 just wouldn’t start. It just sent me back to the LE launcher menu again and again. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The below fixes were tried but none of them worked: repairing, updating the latest NVIDIA driver, using Unicode UTF-8 for worldwide language support, restarting PC, closing background apps, restarting EA, clicking “start” instead of “resume” for ME3Solved100Views0likes6CommentsUnable to Launch Mass Effect 3

Hi, those are the last two achievements that i am missing in steam & origin. I even made a new game, took Aiden with me the whole time as he has both skills and used it in *every* fight mutliple times. I did every sidequest and only have Feros and Noveria open now - it should've unlocked by now. I even tried the old trick to use stasis on the fast travel things on the citadel and even started a new adept character to cast that stuff myself. It just wont unluck. Anyone else having this problem? It's really frustrating as its the last two achievements that i am missing.288Views2likes1Comment[PC] Mass Effect 3 Lost Product KEY?

I have played through the legendary edition before already. This playthrough I got to the very end of the game right before starting the final 2 missions, and I was in the citadel dlc about to start the part. The night prior my game was a little slow but nothing crazy. Now once i hit the main menu my game crashes if i click resume or start me3. My other games play just fine its just me3 crashing. I have verified the steam game integrity, uninstalled norton antivirus, deleted and redownloaded the game, updated my graphics drivers. Nothing has worked.Solved81Views1like6CommentsMass Effect 2: PhysX issue PC
I tried to run ME:2 from EA, but get the popup Failed to initialize the physics system. Please ensure you have an updated version of the PhysX System Software installed. So, I've searched the internet, and removed the PhysX on my computer, installed the one in Mass Effect/_Installer/physx/redist, but got the same message. Then I looked further, and found this link to the legacy driver, but when I try to download that one, it just gives me a whole screen of this: What am I missing?15Views0likes1CommentUnable To Launch Mass Effect 3 in The EA app

As the title. Bought it a while ago, but just went to play it for the first time today, and couldn't get it to load at all. It's through Steam, and I'm running Windows 11, the newest update (24H2) and have a pretty new and decent computer.

I can't get this achievement. ''Top Talent''. I play on the steam platform. I had leveled my attacking team to level 20 before but I couldn't get the achievement. So I threw away the team I had and started leveling up from 0 again, but I still couldn't get the achievement. In order to find a solution, I looked into the topics opened by other players on the internet who had the same problem. However, I could not achieve this success. This is starting to bother me, please help. I deleted the game completely and reinstalled it. I also tried the methods you suggested to other players.SolvedUnDeRWQRLD10 days agoSeasoned Novice64Views0likes3Comments[Solved] [PC] Kasumi: Stolen Memory DLC Crashing at the end of loyalty mission.
The ME2 DLC Kasumi: Stolen Memory is crashing at the end of the loyalty mission. I have no trouble doing the mission itself, but when I get to the mission summary and want to press [EXIT] the screen goes black (not blank) and it crashes to desktop, everytime at the same place. I checked on the old board for any solutions and it seems they found 1, but it isn't working for me. Old board thread of the problem: http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/106/index/2452757/1. I've tried everything that thread suggested and even the "add parameter" fix didn't work. They seemed to think that the problem was that the game was trying to use a loading screen that wasn't there. So my next step is trying to replace that loading screen with another one. Though I think it won't work. I've contacted the Support but the problem was forwarded to the game specialists, they would look into the problem. But that can take years, especially since this problem was noticed 3 years ago and still no official fix of the problem. Now I am trying to get some attention here so we can hopefully fix this problem (somehow) otherwise hope I can get my money back, don't want to pay for anything that wont work. There is another thread that posted the same problem, but not much attention to it.

Hi, I'm having an issue with Mass Effect 3 where it says I need an online pass to play multiplayer. I understand the pass was discontinued (so there's nothing to buy), and I can't get a hold of EA Help or Support to help me fix this issue. I tried the steps detailed here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Other-Mass-Effect-Games/PC-Mass-Effect-Online-Access-Error-in-Multiplayer-Mode/m-p/12557021#M72907 But it didn't work. Like I said, I can't get ahold of anyone at EA to help me with this issue. I've tried using their Twitter (X) chat, but no option seemed anywhere close to being related to my issue. Does anyone know of a fix, or a way to actually get a hold of a human being at EA? I'm getting very frustrated. Thanks!Solved495Views0likes4Comments[Old Report] "We've noticed your computer is currently offline"
Hey there, I just purchased this game on Steam, and I'm getting the error message that is on the attached photo. (Just in case, it says "We've noticed your computer is currently offline. To activate your game on this computer using your EA Account, you'll need to connect to the Internet") I'm connected to Origin, which is online as I was able to download Apex updates. I'm also currently online on Steam, not that I think that would affect it in any way. Furthermore I've already restarted my computer, as well as cleared my Origin cache. Running it in administrator spits out the same error message above. Same with booting the individual .exe files. Any advice is appreciated, thanks!
