SHOW me that all of you who are against origin arent all talk. show me that you'll actually do something about it. Prove to me that collectively we have the power to remove Origin.

If you can't do that, you might as well shut up.

Who the hell are you?
You come in here acting like the one I have to do anything for?  Are you EA?  Are you Chris in an alt account?
Dear lord I haven't seen this much pretentiousness since Turnip Root posted on here.

So you dont like Origin, what are you going to do about it?

I'm not buying the game and I'm complaining a hell of a lot.  I have no illusions here but I'm not giving up my convictions for a damn game.
But I'm not speaking for everyone else nor am I going to make up a poll and think thats the end all be all of it.

Right here, you can download a Windows XP VM if you have Windows 7. Looks free to me.

If you have WIndows 7 Professional or Ultimate to be precise which a lot users probably don't have. Besides, you can't play current games in XP mode.

but you just have to look at the amount of programs it allows through by default due to them being submitted to MS as "trusted apps", to get the idea that EA could well do the same. After that, its only a short step to repeating the Sony Rootkit debacle.

There is a difference between allowing signed programs that are being set up with elevated rights to write themselves into the firewall rules and to override user rules that were created afterwards.
The former is standard procedure so users don't have to specify rules for every software they install. The latter is an intrusion into user security which I can't imagine Microsoft would allow nowadays. They learned their lesson.

So what's 1 person not buying a game due to Origin compared to what may be the hundreds of thousands who do, who are complacent or dont know any better?

did you really achieve anything?

and absolutely nothing productive was done.

idle talk and no action. Complain all you want, you won't do anything. Origin won't be going anywhere. I realize that now.

So beyond the point.
If people thought like you they wouldn't be fighting SOPA / PIPA right now.  We'd be stuck with Games For Windows Live right now.
I don't care if I'm the ONLY person (though I doubt it) not buying ME3 or any other EA game until this issue is resolved.  I'm not doing it because my conscious wont let me.  I know this is 2012 and having a consious is alien to some people but for me its how I decide to live my life.  Am I perfect?  Of course not but I'm not going to let a game (even one I'm dying to play) quell that little voice in my head that says its not worth it period!

It's not enough. We can agree that Origin is a bad thing and we don't want it. But absolutely nothing is being done about it. And that pretty much sums up the debate.

Nothing. Can be done about it.

First part is a fair point, how do you know about the second point? (that you can't play current games in XP mode)

Because the hardware emulated by Virtual PC is way too low-end to allow such intensive applications as modern games. Besides the communication is routed through RDP which could very well cause a noticable lag in the game.

My bad Hellbound was getting to me.

Electronic Arts feels justified in resorting to Origin. It doesn't matter what we think or want. They believe they are in the right because of it.

unfortunately, just because EA feels justified, it doesnt mean they're doing the right thing. This is the case with Origin.

My question still stands. You don't like Origin, what are you doing about it? How far has your complaining gotten you? Thats what I want to know.

do any of you really think we're achieving anything by huffing and puffing up and down on some thread? Do any of you really think if we just hold our breath like some kind of child, electronic arts will drop Origin for us? Because thats all Im seeing so far.

As the game now requires Origin.

Does that mean Mass Effect 3 has done away with the traditional log onto EA within the game in order to access DLC?

Or is it still a case of a one time activiation, but if you don't log onto EA within the game, you won't have access to your DLC?

Quoting this because I love myself but also because I would love an answer to it.

Also - if it doesn't require the in game EA logon, can Origin be in offline and DLC still used without an active internet connection?

Apply that question to yourself. What are YOU doing about it? Exactly the same as a lot of us. Complaining, and (I'm assuming) refusing to buy ME3, and any other EA products. Just because youve done a poll (which others in this thread have already done) means you are not doing any more than anyone else. In fact, by attacking others, you are doing less, as you are actively working against your comrades in this matter.

a lot of crap

Stop hiding behind a throwaway account, and put your money where your mouth is. By hiding you give EA/Bioware every right and erason to ignores your posts and comments, as you come across as someone who hasnt paid for any of their products, and based on your writings, never will.

Strap on a pair, and man up. Otherwise, STFU.

Im done buying games from EA. The poll is only there to gather thoughts and see bigger pictures. It is not a high horse for me to climb on if that is what you are implying. I have not attacked others, only held up a mirror.

A lack of action is as good as silence. And it is VERY quiet in this thread.
