On a recent post in the DLC salesperson thread of the old forums Fernando Melo made the following comment:

'You don't need to be online to play DLC. We have our own DLC updater that is included with the game so you don't need to install anything separately, and don't use the EA Downloader - you'll only need that if you purchase DA:O through the EA Store.'


Does this apply only for digital copies?  I have purchased a physical copy of DA:O from the EA store and would like to know if I must use the EA downloader.  I would prefer to use the DLC updater that is included in the game.

Think they mean you only need the EA downloader for the DLC's when you ordered the Digital version (the dlc's that follows the digital version that is) from the EA store, or if you buy the DLC's digitally from the ea store.

I think if its a physical copy, you will be using the DLC updater not the EA downloader. EA downloader is for digital copies.

the EA store Downloader = to download the game to your computer and the addons that came with the purchase.



After it is installed you should be able to just use the DAO updater that is within the game.



For physical copies, you can inmediatly use the DAO updater.

To clarify - DLC for any version (including those purchased through EA Store - digi or box) only uses the DLC updater.

I meant that if you buy a digi version of the game from EA Store you will have the EA Download Manager app, as that is the method of transfering the game to you - much like Valve uses Steam as their method, etc.  But that doesn't relate in any way to the DLC.

So, I have a question. I've bought the Steam version, but I also got the EA Store version at WQ (hugs and kisses to BioWare and EA for that), is there a for me to only get the keys for the EA Store version and not download it? Cause I'll have downloaded the Steam one and activated it, and I want to use the other one to set up a seperate account for my brother with keys to the game, dlc and stuff which I alreaady have installed and activated with my account.

Thank you. I assumed that this was the situation. I just wanted to be sure.
