Don't bother wasting your money for ME:LE
So as the title - please save yourselves any heart ache and stay away from Mass Effect: Legendary Edition. UNLIKE Origin/EA Play OTHER single player games... you can not play this one offline or in ...
Forum Discussion
well that sucks... i can't play it offline with EA Pro (according to another thread) but this sounds like a lie, because all my games are EA Pro and i can play the Sims 3/4 and other offline games when i am offline (or could the other month and i never *owned* them (thats what i meant when i said i bought it... because i subbed to Pro)
So they must have updated their system???
Still going to try it... but if this is correct ... yeh... EA is not getting anymore of my cash because it worked with other EA Play/Pro games in the past - so darn confused right now
So i have 50 mins for verification on ME:LE before i can even try it
**Source = GW2 actually works in offline mode and that is EA Play/Pro also!!!!
yep so EA can 100% go do one!!!!
testing others because they USED to play offline (Even ea play and pro games... this is sickening the amount of greed these companies have now!!!
Games which WORK OFFLINE (even though i don't **OWN THEM** and only SUB them)
DK 1
DK 2
Breathedge
Farmer's Dynasty
SuperHot
GW2 DELUXE
The Sabetour
The sims 3
Tropico 6
Yookalaylee
GAMES WHICH DO NOT WORK OFFLINE
For The King
Frost Punk
Mass Effect: Legendary Edition
this is ******** stupid !!!!!
**ALL GAMES LISTED are sub only and 98% of them work offline... WHY NOT THE OTHERS!!!!**
PLEASE NOTE: those which do not work offline ask for a secondary sign in - or CTD
Those which ask for a secondary are Frost Punk and ME:LE and For The King (ME:LE and FTK used to ask for the secondary sign in but don't anymore and just CTD - Frost Punk is the only one which now asks for it) **DisplayName Field Missing From Registry >>> Sign in Box**
Edits are now complete - reply at your lesiure ... hopefully before i lose the internet on Sunday so i can fix this, because obviously it is fixable, because the Guy above claims they work offline... and he is a *community helper**
FINAL EDIT:
I did the mentioned fix point for point
Try to disable all Network-adapters in the device manager > Start Origin and make sure it is in offline mode > Test.
so... after trying to load ME1 from ME:LE 63 times (yep... 63 times - i counted... Autism sucks!!!) it now loads when offline... but ME2 and 3 do not.... maybe it will take that amount of tries for the both of them?
i have tested this 100s of times now (and even done it in a video - if you watch it you will be able to see the complete issue...)
ISSUE:
SOME TIMES it works in full offline mode... SOMETIMES it does not... regardless...
If i load ME2 or ME3 in offline mode (even though they have been verified) the refuse to work 100%... then when i try to load ME1 again after i have tried loading the other 2 in offline mode it will refuse to work 100% UNTIL i reconnect)
>>> video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ESEhG4QnxY Doing its final pass<<<
If you actually understand why it only works intermittently before you watch the video it would be amazing for a reply
This is strange. You disabled all network devices in the device manager?
You could see that it did work, so there is a local problem.
