Re: Dragon Age Inquisition On PS3 Won't Connect

Hey @EA_Shepard !

Yeah, still not working but your response makes me feel like it should, so I won't go buy a copy on PS4 just yet. 🙂

I receive the below when attempting to first connect, so I can download my world state.

"Connection to the dragon age server has been lost."

Oh it still works. I connected on my PS4 a few min ago and it would be the same on PS3. You can still connect regardless. Does this happen during the game or right after you launch the game?

Nice. I wasn't sure as the status page for both PS3 and XBOX360 show down, while PC, PS4, and XBONE are up.

This happens at the main screen, where you have options for a new game, multi-player, load, options, and extras. I hit the triangle to connect, so I can grab my world, and that error is thrown.  I haven't actually played the game yet, as just using the default world would make me cry.

@mmcgallicher Gotcha when you hooked up the PS3, did you do so with a wired connection or a wifi connection? With a console that old, there are only going to be so many reasons why you get that error. Either way, they are up. I've checked Xbox and PC versions as well.

Hey @EA_Shepard ,

Firstly, thanks a ton for trying to help me.  It's bananas that anyone is willing to assist and troubleshoot a PS3's ability to connect to an online resource in 2023.  So...thanks! 🙂

I've tried both wireless and wired connections, though I'm currently using a wired one.  I'm not too concerned with overall connectivity as I'm able to connect to PSN succesfully and download some old games I had previously purchased from the PlayStation Store on PS3.

From the looks of that status page, PS3 and PS4 use different customer-facing infrastructure (attached).  Are you in a position to also test from PS3?

@mmcgallicher I have one but its been so long i haven't updated it. That may very well be a PS issue, not a game issue. Connecting to PSN doesn't always mean all services are up though. I can try and see what happens though. On my end though it says all systems are a go. So I can do mu best to test it out.
