Do I still need to log into the Cerberus Network?

So I'm about to do another Mass Effect 2 run and was wondering if there is any benefit to automatically log into the Cerberus Network each time I start the game. It used to be the case that you had...

    You only need to logon once, after that you can play the DLCs without Cerberus network connection.

    For the "New" DLCs, look if the Alt Appearance 2 pack is available in game.

Alright, thanks for the help! So basically the Cerberus Network is useless these days, right?

Or is there still any benefit from loggin in there?

    its true, if you have the DLCs registered there is not much you can gain on the CN these days.

      Sorry for reviving the thread. 

      I'll be playing through ME2 the first time, so I have never had any experience with the Cerberus Network. I faced the same issue as in the original post and I was lucky to find this thread.

      Still, I wanted to ask: is there any indicator that the DLCs are registered? I have them purchased all through Origin, but I do not want to start playing the game and suddenly realize that I am missing something.

        1. Go to your Origin game library.
        2. Click on the ME2 Cover.
        3. Choose "Extra content"
        4. Scroll down, all your DLCs should be marked as "Installed"


          If that is the case, and you don't get a a specific warning at starting the game, (ME2 start screen)  that some DLCs couldn't get verified, you should be good to go.
