  • Thanks @EA_Darko you really came through! The link worked just fine for me, now I'm back playing multiplayer with my cousin and others friends.

    You are the best!!!!

  • @EA_Darko I realize this was weeks ago, but EA now forces an upgrade even after I followed the link you provided to reinstall Origin. Still no way that I can see of joining a friends game (which seems a pretty vital feature). Any word of a fix?

    I can confirm that this solution no longer works. Upon installing Origin from the link provided by Darko, it prompts you to update to the EA App and gives you no option to close that window and proceed with using Origin - screenshot attached.

    Since upgrading to the EA App, my 'invite friends' button in Mass Effect 3 does nothing at all. Clicking on a public slot also does nothing.

    On Origin, there used to be the option to 'join game' if you click on a chat with your friend, but that doesn't exist on the new app and I see no way to invite friends from the app itself. Great job, EA, as usual.




  • Hello, yes, it seems that now it is not possible to send an Invitation from the friends list, but only via the Invite friend button in the lobby in the game. If the in-game Invite-friend button doesn't work and neither does shift+f1, try this: click on your name in the upper right corner of the ea window, choose "Settings", then choose "Aplication", scroll little bit down and in option "Notifications" choose: When I´m not in a game: Invites, chats & downloads, and in When I´m in a game: Invites&chats. It's strange, but when we had selected: All notifications, the invite button in the game didn't work and Shift+F1 didn't work too. When we changed it to this setting, the Invite button and Shift+F1 to open console works.
