How do you get the new Mass Effect 3 patch?

For PC:

1. Open Origin.
2. Right click the ME3 icon to bring up the menu.
3. Select "Check for Update".

Haven't played on the other platforms, but I always got the impression they downloaded automatically when you started the game.

Thanks, but I have it on Xbox 360, not PC

when the patch won't download?

Blah, blah, download V 1.06... Click "OK"... Screen goes black.. PS3's something-went-wrong triple beep.. Shortly thereafter PS3 restarts with no update installed.

Jeez, thank you!  Origins is not user friendly.  It's not like the right-clicking is hard, but would it be too much for there to be instructions somewhere?

For PS3:

Disable the Media Server Connection and try again. That helped me with a similar issue. To do that go to Settings, then Network Settings, and then select Media Server Connection. You can disable the connection from there.

For PC:

Check your settings (Origin --> Applications Settings). You should be able to tick the box for "Automatically keep my games up to date" - you may have to scroll down to find this, it's the second from the bottom.

And I just found out that if you RIGHT CLICK on the game in origin, it brings up a menu that has "update game" in the list.
