Some of you have noticed the new Recruitment Program app on the Mass Effect facebook page. Basically how it works is you invite someone to join the program (who isn't already in it). Once they install the app and link their Origin account (or make one and link it), you should both unlock early MP access and be able to start playing (xbox and PC only).
That said, there seem to be a few kinks we need to work out:
- the early MP badge isn't unlocking for a lot of people. The problem has been identified and is being worked on.
- however, even if the badge doesn't unlock, usually the access has still been granted.
UPDATE: the badge unlock should be fixed. If you still dont have it unlocked, check that you have recruits who have accepted the invite and linked an account, in your lower Recruit Status screen
- you can check that by going to your profile, top left, and choosing "your registered game content". You should see a ME3 icon with "early multiplayer access - recruitment" (something like that). If you do not, then the app has not granted you what you need for some reason.
- if you think you have recruited someone and should have access, you can log into the PC or Xbox 360 demo and try to play multiplayer.
This is working for a lot of people, but unfortunately not all. I was one of those people, and discovered at least one fix:
- my Xbox 360 gamer tag was not associated with my Origin account properly. I tested this by downloading the Madden 12 demo, which showed it was using the wrong Origin email/account (I don't necessarily mean to suggest you should all do that
- you can check this by going to your profile (top left of the BSN screen), then click on "Your Registered Game Content". If your Xbox gamertag is "none" (or the wrong one, you have to do the next step:
- I contacted EA support via Live Chat and after a few questions they fixed it for me - voila, early MP access on Xbox 360 suddenly worked
(visit the customer service links at EA.com)
On PC: naturally you should make sure the Origin account you linked to the facebook app is exactly the same one you log in with on Origin. May need to restart Origin as well. However, I'm not able to confirm a fix because my Origin for PC already had a different (internal to BioWare) early access.
Apologies to those of you experiencing troubles, we will work to rectify that asap and will update you (likely in the morning).
If you post looking for help, please include your platform, and a screen of the facebook app will help too.
UPDATE: thanks folks, I have enough email/info.
For those of you that have been able to get the early access via the app, welcome to the war.
UPDATE 2: You must be 18 to access the app and the ME2 page. If you keep getting pushed back to the main facebook page, that could be the issue.
