Mass effect disk installation issues
(side note: proof of the item and the disk are attached to this) Alright so I got this copy of mass effect DVD copy from a garage store and I was trying to install the game, when I put in the code that was labeled inside of the box it said it was incorrect after many times of checking the code and making sure I did not put anything wrong in it it still came out as wrong. I was wondering if there was a method where I can pull the code from somewhere that could be used to activate the installation. Also as I couldn't get the manual I have questions regarding the separat disk that is labled mass effect it claims that it needs the first disk which is labled mass effect one but I am confused with the purpose of the disk as even when I install a program from the disk nothing happens and nothing gets installed. I don't know if the answer is clearly obviouse but it would really help if anyone can instruct me with this.Robotick_0091 day agoSeasoned Newcomer22Views0likes3CommentsMass Effect Legendary edition Steam does not start in Linux
Hi I have bought the game on STEAM and it's supposed to work in Linux but it does not start. There is some "EA-APP" that tries to install and then nothing happens. How do I start the game?? I run Linux Mint on a gaming PC.Mudden_swe2 days agoSeasoned Newcomer66Views0likes6CommentsME3 MP "Your connection to the game has been lost" bug (PC)
Long term issue, that I and others have posted on previously. But thought I'd take one last crack at it ... Whenever the host drops (from either in-match or in-lobby), my player is dropped from the match/lobby with the message "your connection to the game has been lost". See attached pic. Every time (AFAIK). Very frustrating, especially when wave 10 or 11. As opposed to having a chance to wait for a new host to be assigned, I'm dropped. Is there any known solution for this? More relevant detail: I have multiple PC accounts. My main (this profile) is old (pre-2018). This older account works fine (no drops). All the rest are post-2018 created. ALL these newer accounts suffer from the drop bug. I've tried on my desktop and laptop PC's. No difference in behavior. The old account works on all of them. To me, this says it is not a PC issue. It is a newer account issue. All bought through Origin/EA, none are Steam. I will note that some friends bought the game recently (same time as some of my newer accounts) and some have the problem, some don't. Any help from our resident guru or CM very much appreciated, thanks!15Views0likes0CommentsMass Effect Crashes With Cloud Sync
I bought mass effect and was having a blast without any crashes, lags, stutter, and 1% low was 50 fps. I travel to asteroid x57 for a side mission. I rescue the hostages and the game crashes. I restart the game and the game loads... to only crashed again... and again... and again... I tried loading a save before the mission, it didn't matter. I tried deleting local saves and uninstall the game. I reinstalled the game and it crashed while i was making a new character.... again... and again... and again. I had the same issue when I had origin it worked.... for some odd reason... it doesn't work with ea... i know... weird right? if only there was a way to DELETE cloud saves.... I uninstalled the game and ea. I dusted off my xbox 360 and my mass effect collection. thankfully all the games i own on ea, i have hard copies of on my xbox 360. thank you ea for recommending me to not buy anymore games from you, to uninstall it, share all my bad experiences with other people and to recommend other platforms. cheers (cm edit - updated thread title for vis.)Why_I_Oughta_025 days agoSeasoned Newcomer97Views0likes3CommentsUnable To Load Data on N7 HQ Page

Trying to playing Mass Effect Andromeda, every time I launch the game it shows that I'm Missing Online Access. I bought the game through Steam and don't know if that effects it or not.

Around 2 years ago I played and finished MELE. Last year I got hacked on pretty much every account on pretty much every site I had connected my gmail/yahoo/steam accounts. It was bad, but I fixed up as much as I could. NOW I want to play again and with mods, but I CAN'T because some bichass hacker with a hotmail account has replaced my MAIN LINKED steam account. I think it was from last year. I need help with this please88Views1like4CommentsME:LE 3 won't launch
Hi! I've tried just about everything so as a last resort i'm gonna ask help from here. Two things of note: i'm playing on pc and my game is on an external hard drive. Been playing for a long time, and haven't had many issues before. About a week ago my ME:LE just deleted itself from Steam, saying it wasn't installed anymore. Installed it again and went to play as normal, but the game wouldn't launch. The launcher itself works fine, but when i try to load the last save, it lags and crashes at the loading screen, taking me back to the launcher. I'm currently playing ME3, and it seems like the problem is with that game specifically, because i tried starting new ME1 and 2 saves and there were no problems with either of them. What i have tried so far: deleted the game and installed it again (multiple times) updates my graphics cards moved it to my computers internal drive tried launching it straight from the .exe file verified the game files (multiple times) cleared EA app's cache Tried basically everything that came up when googling this problem. If there is anyone who could help with this i'd be very grateful.400Views0likes18Commentsunable to connect to Mass Effect 3 multiplayer

Hello! As a big fan of electronica and sound design aesthetics featured in the ME games, I was (and still remain) surprised that these beautiful tunes, which were written & produced specifically for the ME games - have never been released in any form of a soundtrack (except partially and for the limited vinyl-only Andromeda release). I'm mainly concerned about Comaduster ("Uncertainly Entwined", "Proxaema", "Penta Quanta", "To Hide To Seek"), but there are more of them, the tracklists can be found on some wiki sites like here: > Andromeda - music terminal on the Tempest | Mass Effect 2 - club music Some of these tracks are uploaded on YouTube by fans like here, for example. But it's a shame there's still no way to listen to these gems anywhere officially. So I wonder if there's any way to change that? A compilation like Cyberpunk 2077 radio music would be a fantastic release and, I'm pretty sure, treated warmly by a lot of ME fans!45Views0likes0CommentsME 1 Citadel travel - LE

I have just started the prelude of Mass Effect 1 on the PS4 and my PS4 controller has locked up on multiple occasions. I either end up running into a wall and stopping, or the controller completely locks up and I have to turn the PS4 power off to reset the whole system to have the controller work again.

I have a confirmed database synchronization error on my account. My Asari Adept character is Rank XX, but the server is only granting me 78 available skill points instead of the 82 I am entitled to at Level 20.I have already performed a Character Level Reset and used a Respec Card, but the point calculation is stuck. Since this is a server-side entitlement issue, can you please perform a manual account sync or a content re-grant for my multiplayer profile to refresh the Rank XX skill point flag? I even tried leveling her to 20 without spending any skill points (tedious!)Remydex1 month agoSeasoned Newcomer25Views0likes0CommentsEA says that my ME:LE is the wrong version
So I've just downloaded Mass Effect Legendary Edition from steam because of the sale. I've been trying to get it to play, but every time EA says the version is out of date and the steam version needs to be uninstalled. Great, so I uninstall the steam version. Uh oh, now it says that I need to download the steam version and uninstall the EA version. The things is that even though it shows the ME:LE in my library. It doesn't offer me the option to uninstall. The download button is completely greyed out. Solutions? Nothing so far! I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling EA app and Steam. I've tried fixing the game files. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the ME:LE several times. I've tried running EA.desktop and EA.launcher as admins in addition to running the ME:LE.launcher as admin. I've tried opening the ME:LE launcher. I've done troubleshooting on EA and I did cache clearing on EA. Nothing has worked so far. I just want to play my game :( Any help is greatly appreciated!70Views0likes0Comments[Steam Deck] ME:A Loads to a Black Screen
