Since i successfully installed mass effect 3. I'm experiencing smooth performance of the game itself during almost any gameplay situation. Except for one situation only, I discovered whenever i try to finish off an enemy with a charged melee attack up close (default " F " key) the game freezes for about 5-10+ seconds. This happens with every finishing-move type situations whenever a charged melee attack is used so far. On addition im also experiencing this kind of freeze when im casting the incinerate spell type (not ammo kind) up close an enemy in melee range to finish him off.  And that is kind of annoying since i just want to make good use of the new feature(s) to finish off foes in more exciting different ways. I dont know the cause of this and i can't think of a solution either, since my pc rig is still quite high-end despite that my build is about 1.5-2 years old now. i can still run any new game on maximum video settings with smooth performance so i dont know why i have this freeze at all, since besides that special move and spell the game runs "freeze free". Drivers are up to date (as usual) did an "install repair check" to make sure no game files are  broken but that did not solve anything at all.
Anyone an idea if i can just concider this a game related performance bug ? or is there something else the cause? any comment would be very much appreciated.

current pc specs (build is 1.5-2 year old):

Windows 7 ultimate 64-bit
Asus rampage extreme II motherboard
SSD 60 GB / 1.5 TB HD spread over a few disc partitions
12 GB RAM
i7 - 980 X.(treme)   3.33 GHZ processor (stock value)
Nvidia GTX 580 1.5 GB
Antec Quattro True power 1200 watt, power supply

updated game version/origin/nvidia driver/bios driver/ windows drivers etc etc....

Well at least nice to know someone is experiencing the same issue, but might i ask if in your case it's not your pc rig that could be the problem? If not, very much appreciated for replying and cheers for any possible solution-finding in the near future. If a patch isnt going to solve this over time anyways

I have the same problem with similar specs. Very annoying. I hope a patch comes soon.
It'd pretty frustrating not being able to play the game at it's fullest potential with a high-end computer.
I hope more people report this issue.

someone send me a pm earlier and replied by noting he/she experiences the same issue and solved it by unplugging the modem. To me that would seem logic to one end but a bit drastic solution as well. since in theory you NEED to connect with origin thus needing an internet connection to launch the game, and origin tracks almost everything you do in-game (such as killing mobs) to update achievements. So maybe unplugging the moden is one way to end the achievement updating and might prevent any in-game freezes further. but you cant run this game without origin launched right? Unless you first launch origin - mass effect 3 the normal way and then when you are at the in-game menu screen you disable your internet, but that's pretty drastic but perhaps a sort of solution after all if you dont mind/care about achievements. Besides the person who send me this solution was experiencing freezes with ANY kill not really the same circumstances as in my case. Hope this helps for anyone else experiencing freezes while killing mobs. A future offline mode of the game would be a nice add imo or just a performance-achievement patch fix...
