Mass Effect 3, via EA App; Cannot access Online DLC features; CASE NO. 25129279

NOTE: I post this here because EA Live Support explicitly told  me that posting here for ME3 Community Managers was the only way to fix the issue. This after approx. 1.5 hours speaking with 2 different representatives who were as helpful as they reasonably could be. CASE NO. 25129279 was given to me so I could provide reference to that conversation.

I own the 2012 version of ME3 on the EA App. I use it to play the Online/multiplayer game mode.

Upon fresh install, I do not have access to the DLC characters or maps. But the EA App version of the game explicitly is supposed to have access to all DLC, and I have used these DLC features on previous installs.

I request assistance in re-enabling my account's access to these features.

Thank you

    Thank you for the link. It does appear that the issue you've linked to is the same one I am experiencing.

    Unfortunately, the old thread's proposed fix does not work for me — and, indeed, was never confirmed to work for the original thread either 😭

    I would be grateful for any further assistance on this very frustrating issue. If there is some way to alert an ME3 Community Manager's attention to this thread, I would also be very appreciative.

    That's interesting. I have 20 addons in that list, including a bunch of multiplayer packs.

    I looked up the issue, and someone in the past has also had the issue of only seeing Extended Cut in their addons (link to thread). Maybe Holger's suggestion in that thread could be helpful for you. I'll ask around to see if someone else has any suggestions.

    Thank you for your reply

    The "Addons" section includes only one option, the "Extended Cut", which is installed. Unfortunately, it has not enabled my access to the Online content.

  • Have you downloaded the multiplayer DLC? They're not part of the main game installation and need to be installed separately from the game's "addons" section in the EA app.
