Since installing the patch and DLC I haven't been able to connect any games, not quick, not self-hosted, not friend-invited (playing on PC). Getting slightly frustrated, especially since I didn't have much problems previously.


Same here.  Before the patch & DLC I had no connection issues, other than the very infrequent game drop.

Now I can't find a game, start a game or even complete purchases.  Playing on PC.

Took a mini-hiatus after the Raptor packs fiasco, now I'm considering making that permanent.  Definitely the last Origin game I buy.  Probably the last time I buy EA or Bioware, too.

What the hey. I am getting some incredible, incredible, incredible lag and connectivity issues today. Is it the patch? That is the only thing different. I reset routers, checked speeds, nothing on my end should be the problem. After seven games, I doubt it's just 'bad luck on poor hosts.' Everyone else I partied with seemed to be having issues as well (little hints like how other people would move to revive a companion already revived by someone else, or running and working on a data computer when someone is already there and halfway done, and the frequency of missed sniper shots etc).

This is on the Xbox.

Trying to play with 3 friends. Only 1 of us can host, if any of the others host then at least one person will not be able to connect (Hangs on connecting screen).

When we do manage to start a game we are pretty much getting a DC within 5-10 mins and that person cannot reconnect. We've played around with a bunch of firewall settings etc. I've even literally turned off my firewall.

Seems to have started happening since the DLC release.

Oh, forgot to mention I'm on PC.

I had previously never doped a game, ever. Since the patch I can't finish a single match. Co-op is essentially unplayable. The equipment I've used has been completely wasted, as games are unfinishable.

I wish someone at Bioware/EA would acknowledge that this is a problem with Origin since their patch, and let us know they're working on it or give us a rough ETA.

I highly regret taking yesterday off from work to chill at home and play multiplayer with friends, the day was a complete waste of vacation time, as we finished maybe 1 of 20 or so games we tried, regardless of map, who was hosting, or what races/classes were chosen. Money down the toilet.

I'm amongst the fans who weren't thrilled by the ending, but whatever my feelings were about the single player campaign, I've always thought "well, at least the multiplayer is really fun, and I get a lot of enjoyment out of that!" but now even that is gone. I'm very disappointed by this Origin service, and doubt I will purchase future EA products, unless they can wow me as a customer with a fast solution and something to make it up to us, like maybe some premium spectre packs.

Maybe it's an internet connection thing, but it does not seem to happen when I play other games online. Sure it's not the server itself? Not trying to bad-mouth Bioware, just making a point that if its happening with everyone, it can't just be the internet connection itself. Other games for me play well online, no need to adjust anything.

MP is fairly fun, but the main reason I have been playing multiplayer is to get the best possible ending.  Now I can't even find a quick match. All I get is the rotating "thinking" graphic forever.   I can't even start my own match because I get a network error.  Never had this problem before today (DLC patch day).  I absolutely love Bioware but I have not seen these kinds of problems from them before.  I'm a sad panda today

I have not been able to complete a game for the last 24 hours, twice kicked on wave 10 in gold too just to rub it in... Was working fine until update. 

More than a bit pi$$ed off. Going to try disabling UPNP and see what happens.

I rarely have problems, and I never have any if I am hosting. It's always been the hosting players fault on the rare occasion there is an issue, but my friend just got the game on tuesday to play MP with me, and he can't go more than 1 game without getting disconnected at some point, and rubberbanding around most of the rest of the time. It's unplayable for him and can't pinpoint the problem, even tried what was suggested in the OP.

Connectivity issues existed before this patch on all platforms. The disconnections from EA's servers have intensified tenfold after the patch from what I've read and personally experienced. There is definitely something in that patch that is NOT agreeing with EA's servers on many levels. Gonna try another match in a bit. Fingers crossed I actually make to extraction without getting booted from EA's servers again..and again...and again

Hasn't fixed the issue. Seems it's the 20 minute thing someone mentioned, managed to get through a game of Bronze, = 15min, then tried Silver and got booted before Wave 2 had finished.

So, if you want to play MP, new connections each game and only bronze unless you can finish Silver or Gold in under 20 minutes.... bull****.

So, still no update from EA/Bioware. I'd love to get around to playing more MP sometime. Co-op is currently unplayable, while I had ZERO issues before the recent patch/Resurgence.

As of today 4/12/12 Ive played maybe 7 games 2 of which I was able to complete. Every other time I have been disconnected from the EA server. Its not my end, of that Im sure of so has to be server side. I play on PS3. Also while playing on Condor my team had the worst problems of all. Minute waits for in between rounds to begin, people disconnecting or having problems with their characters experiencing extreme lag, also enemies would not die when hit directly.

I can't invite/join and play with friends anymore. (Joining game... < Game essentially frozen -> Alt+F4)
This is horrible.

Any fix on the way?

I have the same problem. Here is a tip for you if you don't want to alt+f4 the game: When it stucks at "Joining game...", open your Origin and try to join your friend's game again. But now, don't select char, simply press Exit button.

Anyhow, I'd like this fixed as well. (not to mention disconnecting during wave 10/11)

Huge issues since the patch here. Been able to complete 2 out of roughly 30 games since the patch launched.

Same here. From the beginning I've "lost connection to the EA servers" on occasion; like one game per dozen at worst. And since the latest patch I cannot finish a single bloody match. Huge disappointment, especially with the Premium Specter Packs available for a limited time.

An update on any progress by EA and/or Bioware would be nice.

EDIT: This is happening in BF3 also. Seems like it is Origin itself that is broken. EA needs to get their act together.

If you are experimenting difficulty connecting to other players online and your Internet connection is behind a router using NAT (Network Address Translation), you may need to take one of the following steps to attempt fixing your issues:

Xbox 360:

  • Enable UPNP on your router. 
Playstation 3:
  • Enable UPNP on your router. 
  • Manually open UDP port 3659 and 6000  on your router to allow inbound and outbound traffic. 
PC:
  • Make sure your personal firewall is configured to allow Mass Effect 3 (Demo or Full game) to communicate to the internet.
  • Enable UPNP on your router. 
  • Manually open UDP port 3659 and 6000  on your router to allow inbound and outbound traffic. 
Please consult your router or personal firewall documentation for information on how to allow game related traffic on these ports. If you are attempting to play on a corporate internet connection, contact your network administrator.



:devil:


help.ea.com/article/network-troubleshooting-for-mass-effect-3-multiplayer

The UDP Ports that need to be enabled inbound & outbound to play multi-player:

  • UDP Ports: 5659, 6000


What's correct?
