Why does the "go offline, start, go online" trick work?  Or renaming the Retaliation DLC folder?  What is the key that is out of sync?

 

I have only seen this on the Xbox 360. The behaviour shows that there are separate state paths. If the Retaliation DLC is visible during the check and before the menu loads, the system crashes. Once the menu has loaded, the Retaliation DLC can be inserted and the check on that is performed separately from the other DLC checks, and in the post-menu state. We could hypothesize what causes that, but that knowledge of the two state paths should be sufficient for those with access to the code to fix the bug in a very short time. (Alas, however, it clearly not gonna happen.)

Game is trolling me hard now.

 

If I try the offline then online work around it won't let me authorize any DLC including the patches.

 

If I start the game with retaliation renamed, it authorizes the rest of them, but I can't do a solo with retaliation content.

 

EA help is helping me...

Felt like mentioning that I am still having this problem.

 

Since there doesn't seem to be any official way to fix this, perhaps I will have to look at alternative methods like cracks and the like.

I had it for many weeks once, and it eventually went away on its own. But it's easier to deal with on Xbox.

Redoing all the challenges i completed on the day i got the glitch helped me, but i guess you don't have any idea which ones those are now.

I told EA customer support they were incompetent and to stop telling me to upgrade my ****** graphics drivers and right after that the problem magically went away and haven't had it since.

But the chances that EA support actually did fix it are slim, I think it's just a coincidence.

[Peer of the Empire]

It was fixed briefly for me but I'm usually running with it

 

Probably don't alt+f4 out of game if want to avoid

 

For me, the way to get it to work on PC is:

 

1.  Go offline in Origin

2.  Start ME3 and get to main menu (EDIT: Make sure to let it try to connect and fail)

3.  Manually connect in ME3 main menu.  It will fail again because offline

4.  Go online in Origin

5.  Start playing!

I am pretty sure I redid them a few weeks afterwards.  What sucked was on that day I tripped Tech, Biotic, Reckoning and Rebellion IIRC.  Which sadly aren't fast ones to do.

Herpes. Haven't had this bs for over a year, but it is back now.

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

[N7-Praesentiae]

Ahh retaliation glitch, what a persistent ******.

I never had this problem in my two years of playing ( ) until it started a week or so ago, but then it went away immediately after that incident a few days back when origin and all related things went offline for an hour or so for whatever reason. I suppose they reset the servers, like marksmad said.

 

With regards to that, marksmad - it's really nice and refreshing (actually kinda smexy) to see you all serious and professional-like.

Yep using a crack is the easiest way if you only play on PUGs, no Origin BS and usually 2mins faster to get into MP menu.

Thanks. You're pretty hot yourself, apparently

Yeah so apparently a crack does work to get in without crashing, but can't use Origin In Game.

 

Warranty Voider's loader / patcher doesn't prevent the crash.  I guess it probably is related to profile or challenge points rather than the DLC check in and of itself.

 

I'm going to try grinding those challenges again to see if it helps, but I don't know if I forgot any.  I did do Tech and Biotic yesterday, need some extractions for Reckoning.  Then it will probably take a while to do Rebellion.

Wait till you see me wear my pink juggernaut.

I believe that would be worth seeing. I'll bring the turret if you'll bring the hex shield.

[ex-Clusum]

It allows you to keep your origin in game. As long as you start in offline mode there should be no issues preventing retaliation crash

It's a date!

Smells like teen spirit. And reminds me of this.

This is because Smehur knows that I'm really a hot korean grill model.

 

And BSN has always been a mixture of hugs, humping, and headbutts.

I know, but I don't need to run it to play MP at all since I have original DLC.  I was talking about trying it to prevent the crash.  I get tired of an extra 4 steps to start the game (set origin offline, click on MP until you get the dialogue that you need to be online, go online, click on multiplayer again).

 

Yesterday I completed Tech, Biotic and Reckoning again, but that didn't seem to help.  I will try to work on Rebellion again.  I don't know what sort of minor challenges I completed around when this stupid bug happened.

[Selthae]

"You have lost connection to the servers".

Still love that one. Especially on wave 7+.

[capn233]

Bump.  Hasn't gone away.  Finished Tech Mastery again recently, not that it helped.

[capn233]

I think it might have actually gone away today.  Hurray!

[N7-Praesentiae]

Lucky you. I had built a whole new computer and installed a new OS but mine still crashes, so its safe to say im quite done with mp for now.
