Many threads have been started by people looking for others to play with. There are already several threads where others have made the same request. It would be good if you check those for replies, since many regulars have offered their IDs for others to connect with them and play. Adding your information to an existing thread where possible makes it simpler for the next person to find useful help.

 

Specific threads that you are strongly recommended to start with:

 

PC/Origin: http://forum.bioware...formation-here/

 

Xbox360: http://forum.bioware...ayer-base-info/

 

PS3: http://forum.bioware...ck-ps3-players/

 

WiiU: http://forum.bioware...-players-wii-u/

 

When posting, include as much as possible of the following key information:

 

** Your Origin ID  (on PC),  OR your gamertag  (on Xbox Live) OR your PSN  ID OR your WiiU Mii  tag. (Many people have different IDs on different platforms and/or on here on BSN.)

** Your timezone and the kind of times that you play. People from all round the world read BSN.

** Your preferences for difficulty level, Bronze/Silver/Gold/Platinum.

** Other preferences such as for a team with microphones, biotic/tech team, doing challenges, duos, etc.

 

Also, before searching for a game, make sure that you have all the (FREE) multiplayer DLC installed:

 

++ Reckoning

++ Rebellion

++ Resurgence

++ Retaliation

++ Earth

 

Without these DLCs, you won't be able to play with anyone online.

 

(Note: if you happen to be on WiiU, ignore the DLC remarks. All relevant DLC was included with the edition of ME3 for the WiiU, and what wasn't has never been released for WiiU. Just put in the disc and you're good to go.)

 

Also, if you can't get games - meaning that the searching goes on forever - please check that your router has UDP ports 3659, 5659, and 6000 open for inbound and outbound traffic. If you are on PC, you may need to open those ports for UDP in Windows Firewall as well. Even if you can get games without doing that, you will find that you can find games a lot faster once those three ports have been explicitly opened.

 

A tip: If you have the ports opened, and your search for a quick match still takes a long time, try going to the Store and loading each pack in turn (you don't need to buy anything), which resets the connection to the server. Loading the leaderboards can do the same thing. Then return to the search screen as soon as the Galaxy at War map has loaded.

 

Please note, also, that there is apparently a version mismatch between different regions that prevents players from getting games because everyone needs to be using the same version of ME3. The details and the fix are described in a post on the ME3Tweaks site:

 

https://me3tweaks.co...p?f=5&t=20#p243

 

Don't be put off by being new. There are a lot of very able regular players who are perfectly happy to guide new players through the first few games on easier difficulty, and many of them read and post here.

Incidentally, if any of you think of anything else that I could usefully add to the OP, please do mention it.

 

Maybe we could get the Seeker Swarm from Glacier Hazard to come and keep this thread buzzing?

Also, Wii U advise.  If you are pugging, check your Mii Friends app for a list of all the random players you've played with.  You can send friend requests there if you like them.

You play on WiiU? Cool. I would play more on there - because it has better graphics and controls than Xbox - if there were more people to play with. PM me if you want to set up some games.

The multiplayer scene on Wii U is usually active.  Got through some golds last time.  Not the same as on PC where you setup a lobby and it magically fills up in a few minutes though.  There are people who play and we are constantly easing players into gold since few people dare to dip their toes there.

 

Not sure what your timezone is.  I'll add you on Origin next chance I get online.

 

Disclaimer.  I'm not that good.  I just get around.

 

Extra disclaimer.  Now is probably not the best time for MP on Wii U since everyone seems to be preoccupied with Bayonetta 2 MP.

Yeah, one has to be more patient with the lobby, but most of the time one can get a game. There have been weekends when I had to select Any/Any/Any to get a game.

 

I'm on CET, which is UTC+1, and I'm no hotshot. Also, my WiiU manifest is not really platworthy, but good enough for Gold.

 

Also, Bayonetta, well, even Asari have a hard time comparing with that ;)

PM me your NNID.  Or you can use my username and send me an friend invite.  Same username as this forum (as can be seen from the ME3 logo under my name).

 

I'm mostly not platinum worthy but I have been described to be 'legit' by those who plat-solo on Wii U.  Must count for something, right? lol.  I usually play silvers and golds though.

 

I also do Any/Any to get games though with Bayonetta, the online scene is getting a bit empty.  Just came back from some golds which didn't turn out for the best.  2 golds, 2 wave 10 fails, same map (Rio).  Ouchie.

As an aside, anyone on PC feel free to add me. I don't play too too much anymore but I'm managing a few games every once in a while. Origin ID is in my sig. I'm Western Canada, GMT -8. Play at various times, but usually not to late anymore. Probably free for games most Sundays. I'm typically hunting a gold/platinum. My connection now that I've moved is pretty solid, although I usually only host if I'm playing a vanguard/kitthatneedsit.

 

Cheers. :)
