Question, How can I tell that I've unlocked the KoA stuff for ME3? I just finished the demo on PS3 and was there a pop-up I missed or something?

Interesting story as well.
And someones said the bonus Items would be usable in-game only after Reckoning is out too...is that right?

The items will eventually show up on your "entitlements" page: http://social.biowar...ntitlements.php

So, I need Origin or Steam to download the demo?
If you use steam, download and play it there then login using your bioware social logins to properly credit your account.

I have played the demo for only a few minutes, because it had been downloaded at night and I had had no time to play it. I have unlocked only the armor and I do not know how to log in again to the demo to unlock the weapon.

Try this it seems to work for a fix:
Go into your personal.ini file for Reckoning, which is usually
under (My Documents/Reckoning/personal.ini) and delete the line that
says “blaze_email=xxxxxxxx”. Then relaunch the demo and see if you can
connect again.

What I find to be really odd about this cross promotion is that Reckoning arrives on the 7th, yet the ME3 demo does not arrive until the 14th. It's not like the bonus items will be game altering or anything, but you're basically not going to be able to use them until your second or third playthrough.

It works, thank you. Will it unlock the missing weapon when I finish the demo?

You have to play until the 45 minutes are up or just let it sit there if you don't want to play. It tells you when the 45 minutes start and gives you a 20 minute warning that you have to clear to get the timer moving again. Also you can't Alt+Tab out and do something else and have the timer countdown you have to have the game up in front and not in the background.

In that case its a rushthrough, not a playthrough or you have way too much spare time.Graunt wrote...

Unlock for logging in on the demo: "Reckoner-Knight"
Unlock for playing through the demo until that 45m timer at the end runs out: "Chakram-Thrower" (not 100% sure with "thrower" because i have the german name there)
@Volc19: Quite sure u can, why should it matter if the demo is installed or not? It seems to work like that war mage amulett etc. from that DA-Browsergame:
You unlock it while logged in and it will be added to you account like any other DLC and will stay there until your account got deleted.

For instance my Might/Magic combo is going to use these 4 active abilities, they are the only 4 I'll have points in. Relentless Assault (and its 2 upgrades), Storm Bolt/Tempest, The Summon and Sphere of Protection.
If your going a 55/55 split for the Destiny you will 'not' be able to get the 6th tier skills as they require 70 to put into and as I said earlier, 123 max skills eats into that leaving only 68 into the other. My current setup is 62 Might, 61 Sorcery.
Tempest is a 5th tier, ao you can get it with your 51st point into the tree. Not only that its not another active abilities - it just 'unlocks' a charge up for Storm Bolt. Basically that way you still only have 1 skill hotkeyed, but you get 2 separate skills out of it. Tap for a chain lightning bolt (1st upgrade) and hold for a nova style electrical storm thing.
Basically I think you listed off one to many things to actually 'use' in battle. My concept for going that route I'd probably actually stop at warlock, going about 25-30-ish in Finesse, rest in Sorcery 'specifically' for Meteor (needs 75 to max). Meteor is just sexy it basically rains down fire for a few seconds then a giant meteor smashes into the target area. Down side is thats only poison blink 1 but whatever.
Anyways yeah be careful with having to many abilities, you wont be able to use em all. 'Sustained' abilities you can bind, turn on, and unbind (like the poison sustained in finesse) but then your stuck in conversations with your hands glowing bright green non-stop which... well that irks me but may not be an issue for most others.

Have you checked your Firewall to make sure it's allowed through? If that's not it here is a forum thread on the Reckoning Forums that deals with this issue. http://forums.reckon...EA-server-issue

@LPPrince: Yeah a 55/55 split can be difficult to figure out also keep in mind you only have 4 abilities slots and no way to swap them on the fly (aka, theres not 8 by pulling another trigger). So unless your playing it on the PC - with out a controller - your better off picking what 4 abilities you want to be able to use in combat carefully.
For instance my Might/Magic combo is going to use these 4 active abilities, they are the only 4 I'll have points in. Relentless Assault (and its 2 upgrades), Storm Bolt/Tempest, The Summon and Sphere of Protection.

'Sustained' abilities you can bind, turn on, and unbind (like the poison sustained in finesse) but then your stuck in conversations with your hands glowing bright green non-stop which... well that irks me but may not be an issue for most others.
Just an FYI, the mouse/keyboard setup is woefully underdeveloped so there's no real advantage to using it over a 360 controller. Even though you get six more slots, they do not function as actual hotkeys (i.e. hit the key and that ability activates). You actually have to hit the freaking mouse in conjunction to get them to operate. Otherwise, had it worked like every single other RPG ever made that played on the PC, you could put all of your sustainables or even big spells on the keyboard and just play with the controller. But nooo...
You're right about not wanting more than four abilities, but you can still have any amount of sustainables that you like since you can unmap them after they are activated. Because of the limited space, I am heavily considering upping up the shock spell since it gets a lot of buffs from chain lightning. For boss fights you would want heal mapped, but then you have three free for whatever. It's not like the game is going to require you to use that many abilities. Even in DA2 you only really ever used 4-5 per character actively. Most of my Finesse abilities were going to be passives anyway, so I don't really have to worry about it that much.

For ME3 the caps 60 =P
-edit-
Yeah that's kinda what I was getting at hense the unbind bit I mentioned in what you quoted. It's not something I want to do, personally, as rebinding just for a sustained is a bit of an irk for me. More so since I want them off in towns due to conversations. That is one thing I liked about DA2, magical 'effects' dissappeared in conversations so you where forced to look at rainbow man or whatever.
My current Might/Sorcery build doesn't involve the heal spell at all, actually. Though 2nd upgrade for Relentless Assault is a 20% chance to heal per attack, mix that with life leech on base weapons if i can (already seen mana leech so im assuming its there) I plan to heal passively, and a potion if required. Add to that higher armor from that Champion class (15%) and a few sources of damage resistance he should be pretty damn tanky to where passive healing is actually viable as a means to sustain my self.
Failing that I'll also have the max summon to fall back on if things get 'really' bad.
As for LPPrince, my 2 favorites in Finesse are the Ice Trap and the 1st active ability Shadow Flare? 4 second stun cloud at base, pretty nice in groups, forcing them to fight at your pace. Add to that the Lightning and Heal if you want it from Sorcery tree and that'd make a good 4 bound abilities. Keep on any sustained if that doesn't bug ya.
I'd also ignore Lung due to Daggers already 'having' a special teleport lunch (chain up to 5 times). Only down side is it requires a good charge up before hand but it's ultimately more devasting then the actual lunge skills, just not as instant due to charging.
