How about a compensation pack based on how many hours we can not play the game since many of us have the "From the Ashes" DLC so we can not access all our single player content either? It could be based on how many days we have lost.

other than wait, no.

A free PSP and additional N7 weapon unlock would be nice at the least (though I doubt we'll get anything).

I'd just settle down with this bullshit never ever happening again, but I fear I may be asking for too much.

Much appreciated. Didn't feel like going through 30+ pages of this thread. :P

Same, I shudder to think what else they'll break if they give us something. Funny isn't it, having problems in such a way that asking for compensation could potentially lead to more problems.

Hey guys,
I wanted to let you know that the team is aware of this issue and is actively working to resolve it for those of you having problems connecting to multiplayer due to this online pass entitlement. When I have more information or the issue is resolved, I will update you.

Apologies for the inconvenience.

Jess


Please make haste guys, it was bad enough being locked out for 26 hours, but then getting back on for only 10 then two hours after getting my new Valiant getting locked out for another 12 hours so far is just so bad feeling.

so so so bad.

I understand the feeling, but on the bright side when you get back the Valiant will still be there, I don't even have a Valiant. :(

A single free PSP?

HAH!

HAHAHAHAHAH!!!

In the time I couldn't play and wanted to play, I could at least have earned enough credits to by seven PSPs or more if I really felt like playing a lot.

A single PSP would not cut it by a looong. If they give us some compensation (which I really, seriously doubt!!!) it should be something in the lines of about 400k per day not having been able to play at least

But ain't going to happen. We'll just being fed with pictures of Garrus cuddling a turian baby that has been used as "compensation" already in an earlier issue. Don't even have the decency to give us a new cuddly picture for a new problem.

I am far from happy now. Not even R.E.M.'s "Shiny Happy People" is working any longer, damn, not even the Muppets version is helping at all.

That is an all time low for me. And I do NOT have high standards in those regards, so that should tell you how much they've ****ed up.

This is unacceptable. I can't even play single player. DRM only hurts paying customers. Ever.

Thing is though, this whole "redeem online pass" thing isn't something you could accidentally implement... it's not like a bug, it'll be a tonne of implementation, integration and GUI code. It looks like there is some deliberate work on an "pay-to-play" system that they've accidentally switched on before the infrastructure is ready for it (i.e. you can't actually get these codes yet?).

It would be ironic, but not entirely surprising, if at a time when many games are going "free to play" (powered by micro-transactions, TF2, MTG and so on) that EA would implement an MMORPG type subscription service on a multiplayer game that is, really, just a bit of fluff... fun fluff yes, but it's not like ME3 MP is going to win any awards for "Multiplayer game of the year" or anything.

the online passes are used for ps3 and xbox users, so it's already there.

Mixing from other thread, since can't post there..



Dear Jessica,
That's no way in hell is Garrus, looks like a bareface - and more importantly - lacks the rocket in the face Garrus has. This mistake really upsets me and now I feel /butthurt! :crying:


its called HEALING..
in ME2 garrus had his face completely patched up with huge chunks missing.. in ME3 he looked way better, still missing a few skin parts..
this could be .. what? 10 year in the future?
its just fanart so not need to get pissed.

Its funny how DRM keeps paying customers from accesing the game and still let the pirate ones be able to play.

Haha, hey I'm trying to be realistic! ;)

Do you really think they'll give us any more than that (if we get anything), considering the rewards for weekend operations?

Sure I'd love several PSPs, but the chance of that happening is most likely similar to getting all N7 weapons to X in the next week.

I wish they would get their **** together.  I came from Fifa because the servers were messed up and people were glitching it only to find out EA/Bioware have broken the game here too.  *Slow, ironic applause* <_<

Aaaah - so they've somehow managed to roll out console code onto the PC version and they're going to have to try and untangle the whole mess... marvellous. This may take a while to fix then *sighs*


... although, thinking about it, it's probably server level - so they've (possibly) just munged up some user/registration/platform table that's supposed to determine which registered users are on which platforms and therefore which forms of authentication need to be implemented...
