The Demo severs are down for good.
To play the demo you need to disable your internet connection and set Origin to offline mode. Then the demo will run.
Community Admin@CarlosS4444 Thanks for the post. The main ME3 servers are up and should be working fine. However if anyone is trying to play the PC ME3 demo, the servers for this are down, folks will need to launch the game in offline mode to play the demo.
Thanks.
Just a quick question (as someone who has just bought the game) and before I hit the 'return' button: is this def. a firewall thing? I'm having the same problem, but I'm stuck behind a university firewall I can't do anything against. While some third-party programs work fine, such as the Origin client, others don't so I suspect that my connection problems are caused by that. My personal Windows firewall doesn't seem to be the problem anyway, as it lists ME3 as an 'allowed' program.
@angry_roadie I just tested and the servers run, so it's seams the problem is on your end.
Still, wait a few hours, and try again.
Also, you don't need a connection to play the single player game.

Thanks for checking. I will, but playing the game without the extended cut and DLCs (I bought the collector's edition) isn't really what I signed up for (seeing that the game apparently needs to connect to the servers for me to be able to use the extra stuff) ...
@angry_roadie No it's not necessary to be online to play the DLCs, (To download them of course, but not to play them.) Set Origin to offline mode and try, if that not works disable your internet connection, and the game will run with the DLCs installed.
