Why should I have to be connected to the Interenet to play a SINGLE USER GAME on my home computer? Is this just one more way for Big Brother to take hold of our home computers?

If I pay for a DOWNLOAD, that is what it should be - downloaded to MY computer, not half here, half there. I may seriously reconsider purchasing anymore BIOWARE/EA games if this is going to be their model in the future.

If your cd key is installed, you should not need to be online to play any of your DLC content, unless you login with a different account. There is a known issue where some people's offline token are not being created properly, which results in these individuals being unable to play offline. We have a number of fixes for the DA Updater going into the upcoming 1.03 PC Patch. If you're currently having issues related to DA Updater, please send me a private message and we can send you a diagnosis tool that includes a number of these fixes in the meanwhile.

I'm not sure about the information that customer support has been providing with regards with the ability to play offline. I'll contact them to clear up any confusion. However, I can definitely confirm that you should be able to access your PC DLC content while playing offline. The main reason people are encountering this issue is because their CD key failed to install properly. To confirm if your CD key is installed:

- Run the daoriginsconfig.exe application

- On the bar on the left of the screen click 'Game'

- There will be box near the lower part of the window called Product Keys

- Confirm that you have a cd key is listed in this box

- If there is no cd key listed, navigate to the data directory on your installation cd and run 'Dragon Age_code.exe'

- If you do not have a cd key installed this exe will allow you to re-enter it



There is also a known issue with the DA Updater that can cause this to occur. It's being worked on as part of the next patch.
