ME1 not launching
so not too long ago, I got ME:LE on steam. I downloaded it just fine, installed and logged into the EA app just fine, and the launcher itself boots up no problem. My issue is that when I go to click on ME1, it will just load up a bank black window and a splash screen that covers everything on my screen unless I just close that window. Task manager shows literally everything is running except for the masseffect.exe program, which it shows it's not responding. I can't even go to close this blank window unless I force stop it through task manager. I've tried setting a few things to be run as administrator, per the instructions of another user who was having this issue 2 years ago. Nothing is working. I am at my wits end here, I need help. I should be able to play a game that I bought, feels like a major waste of money just sitting there.Solved85Views1like9Comments
Mass Effect 3 - Online Pass
I was referred here from the EA Support Chat and told to post here so a community manager can assist me in resolving this issue. I recently downloaded a DLC for the Mass Effect 3 Multiplayer and it disabled my Online pass. This is a shame because I really enjoy the mass effect multiplayer and would love to play more. I've tried contacting support over chat but was referred here. Any advice or assistance would be golden.Solvedraspberrysenpie28 days agoSeasoned Novice162Views1like14Comments
Mass Effect Legendary Edition crashes at splash screen
I have tried a lot of things to get any of my LE ME games to launch and to no avail. I can enter the launcher just fine, but I cannot load into any of the actual games and experience a crash at the splash screen into a black screen. I seem to remember something being wrong with a cloud save before it happened, but I am not exactly sure. Would appreciate some help finally getting things working againSolved329Views0likes24Comments
ME3: "Connecting to EA servers" error
Hi, I just purchased ME3 on Steam for the purpose of gaming with my friends. I did have a working copy on Xbox Game Pass for PC and before that on the EA app. The problem is that when I start the game it tries to contact the servers but nothing happens. I only get the "Connecting to EA servers" and the game seems unable to connect. Grateful for any helpSolved77Views0likes2Comments
Mass Effect 3 - Online Pass Error
I am at my wits end with this, been trying to solve this issue with support (as suggested by the people on the internet) but no avail After playing the multiplayer through Game Pass I've decided to buy the game on Steam, but to my surprise when I try to play multiplayer through my Steam copy the game asks me for an Online Pass (per attachment image below) and won't let me play, I've been informed that this issue can be easily fixed by reaching the support but all they did was moving my Steam copy to my EA account , and now I can't even play the game through Steam and can only download/play it through the EA app, this didn't fix my problem, hopefully someone who knows what they're doing can help me, thanksSolved200Views0likes13Comments

Can't log in to ME3 N7 HQ Site
Is anyone else having a problem logging in to the N7 HQ? After I enter my password, it just takes me to the home screen and it doesn't show me as logged in. I tried different browsers (Firefox and Edge) and I get the same result. I can sort of access my profile if I enter it manually in "Find Profile" and choose PC/Origin, but it still shows me as logged out. I can see the leader board, but I can't access the Galaxy at War page.SolvedRogueChinchilla2 months agoSeasoned Novice444Views5likes34Comments[PC] ME 2 LE version mouse not disappearing while playing.
Hey guys! This is the first time I’m actually playing the series (finished ME 1 yesterday, and sheeesh, what a game!). Anyway, I just started playing ME 2 on LE version, and there is a glitch with my mouse cursor. Basically, when I’m playing it, the cursor just moves around when I move the camera, and it won’t disappear. It stays moving around when I move the camera and it affects the immersion of the game. Some things that might be important: I play through XBOX Game Pass Ultimate (which includes an EA Play membership). I started the game with my Shepard from ME 1. I have an XBOX One controller, but I don’t play with it. I did disconnect it before playing, but no luck. It doesn’t matter if I change the game resolution or switching between fullscreen, borderless fullscreen or windowed mode. Alt-tabbing doesn't work. What I did till now: Verified game files in the EA App. Didn't find any error. I do know that mouse issues are common in this game, since I have found a lot of topics of some random mouse glitches the OT version (not only here in the EA Forums, but many others websites). Can someone help me? I sent a video in the attachments so you can see what I'm talking about (sorry for the quality, I recorded with my phone), and the Dxdiag.Solved110Views0likes7Comments
Mass Effect: LE refuses to install
Hi there! So, here's the story! A while ago, I felt like playing Mass Effect Legendary Edition, which I had on Steam. So I installed it, tried to load it, which brought up the EA app obviously and... nothing. The game constantly refused to launch!! After trying a bunch of tricks I found online which didn't work, I just gave up. Until, that is, the game turned out to be on sale. At this point, I made the choice to completely remove the game from my Steam library and re-buy it on the EA app. Unfortunately, even that doesn't work: Now, every time I try to just install the game, well, what happens is it stays in "preparing" mode for a couple of minutes, then I get an error message... Again, I tried a few stuff I found online; clearing cache, uninstalling and reinstalling the EA app... it changes nothing. Also, it's the only game that has that problem: If, for example, I try to install Mass Effect Andromeda, it goes straight to it, no issue! I guess, if that helps: When I do try to install the game, it does create a "Mass Effect Legendary Edition" folder in my Program Files. The folder is empty, but it exists. So, yeah, that's my problem, and it's annoying. Sorry for the long text but I wanted to give as much details as I could. Anyone has a solution?Solved575Views0likes49CommentsMass Effect language change
Hello! I have a problem with the language change on ME1 LE, the game launches in English. I've tried to change the language with ME1/BioGame/Config/BIOEngine.ini, but when I set language=FR (or even FRA) and save, the game still launches in English, and the document automatically resets to the default INT. How can I get the game to save the changes? Thanks a lot, WideSolved27Views0likes1CommentME2 Cutscene after Shadow Broker mission summary freezes

[PC] Unable to Access Mass Effect: Andromeda Online Services
Hello, I'm reaching out for help regarding access to the online services of Mass Effect: Andromeda. I used to play the game through the EA Play subscription, which has since expired. Some time ago, I purchased the game on Steam instead, and my Steam account is correctly linked to my EA account (confirmed in my EA settings). Instead of receiving an error code, I simply get the following message in-game: "You are not authorized to access the online features of this title." As you can see (in French) in the attached screenshots. I am then redirected to a general troubleshooting page, which doesn't apply to me because: - I'm not using a proxy or VPN. - My game is fully updated. - There are no error codes (such as 5800 or 10044). - And my network connection is stable. However, I still don't have access to the online features (such as multiplayer). From what I’ve read, it seems that in some cases, a manual intervention from EA support may be required to restore online access when transitioning from EA Play to a full purchase on Steam. Could someone please assist me with this issue? Thank you in advance for your time and support.SolvedSonoda_913 months agoSeasoned Newcomer107Views0likes2Comments
Mass Effect 3 cloud save corrupted, game crashes on launch
Mass Effect 3 cloud save appears to be corrupted , and the game crashes on launch. This happened to me years ago before the EA app replaced Origin. Then, I simply disabled cloud saves and that fixed the problem. The EA app doesn't allow that. Is there any workaround to this? I've tried blocking the EA background service and other tasks through my firewall, but it still won't launch - it crashes every time when it tries to sync with the cloud, and I cannot find a way to have it not try to sync.SolvedPhilosWarrior3 months agoSeasoned Newcomer77Views0likes5Comments
ME 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 fineSolved121Views0likes9Comments
Unable 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 ME3Solved136Views0likes6CommentsUnable to Launch Mass Effect 3

Mass Effect Andromeda ''Top Talent'' Steam Achievements.
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.
