Can't log to play Mass Effect 3 in XBOX ONE
Every time I resume the single player campaign ME3 tries to log to EA.
Among other things the game checks for additional downloadable content, of which there has been none in years.
Before I had to try log in multiple times, taking between 5 to 20 minutes to finally be able to play.
The last couple of days the game hangs forever checking for the aforementioned content and I can't play.
I bought a physical copy of the ME trilogy for 360, why would I have to be required to log to EA at all in order to be able to use it locally?
Found the solution a few days ago. I share it here in case anyone has this very anticlimactic problem.
There is an EA help page about it on the XB360, useful for the XBO:
Having the XBO be offline at the moment of launching ME3 solves the problem. The game doesn't hangs trying & failing to connect.
The EA help page suggests to activate auto log-in to EA Origin & allow gameplay feedback to stop the problem from repeating.
What I have preferred to do is keep my XBO offline until I finish playing the game.
