It won't. Those of us who went through EA are getting "Release Date Check Failure" messages, and can't access the game at all.

Anyone have digital PC Deluxe issues with the online Release Date Check? My copy try's to check and I get this:
This application cannot be used until the official release date has been reached. Please wait until the official release date and restart the application at that time. Click CANCEL to abort the process.
Please visit the support website to get more information: http://support.ea.com/
The link takes you an unhelpful help site.
what region did you buy the game in?

After getting through the intro stuff, and the introduction of the Normandy 2, right when it starts loading you to the galaxy map, game crashes every time.

We are all having the same problem. I downloaded it from EA, and get the same message during the "Release Date Check". I don't know what you mean by "region," but I live in New York. It should be working, in other words, but isn't.

What email address and vendor did you buy it from?
PM me the details.

I spoke to an EA rep via live chat yesterday who got me connected to cerberus, but he maintained that the only promo items associated with the collector's edition were the pre-order bonus inferno armor/terminus armor and the cerberus network card.

Kinghomie: I'm having a similar problem.
I purchased the game through Gamestop digital download, and received my activation code tonight. The code was needed to finish installing the game. When I run the game, it asks me to log into my account and then use my activation key, which it doesn't accept.
On another thread, someone else mentioned they got it to work after running the game as an administrator, but this hasn't worked for me.
has anyone figured this problem out yet i still cant get it
Haven't had any luck with this yet. Last night when I tried again, the game would hang indefinitely when I tried to enter the activation key. This morning, it's back to informing me that 'The product key I've entered cannot be used to activate the game'.
I've since tried to register the game through this website, which accepted my activation key. However, the game continues to ask me to log into my account before starting and does not acknowledge the game being registered. Attempting to register through the in-game prompts nets me the same response.
Assistance or acknowledgement that the issue is being looked into would be appreciated.

This is...silly and frustrating, and no one at EA Support will get back to me. Is there a fix coming? Or do I need a new download code?

I have the PC version and successfully used the Cerberus Network key in-game, so I can see the second computer on the main menu. However, it looks like I did this "out of order," because when I try to download the DLC from the Bioware Social Network, it won't let me redeem my code because it has "already been redeemed." Well, obviously -- by *me.*

log into social using the exact same account you are using to log in in game. the order doesnt matter. just as long as you log into the social site using the same info, and then go profile/your registered game promotions. you should be able to download your cerberus content there

Thanks for your response. It turns out that I'm an idiot, and somehow have two separate EA Accounts. Logging in to the proper account reveals the DLC. Thanks again.

I just installed the (PC retail DVD) Collector's edition last night. After installing I did not run the game, first I wanted to register the game, it took a while to find exactly where to register. I already had an old EA account so I just needed to login here in the forum, the register games feature is located on the "My Games" menu item on the left side of this forum. So that part was solved and my game was properly registered with the Social Network.WinterDog wrote...

Well, obviously -- by *me.*
Next I ran the game, it asked for Cerberus Network login, I did that and it was accepted. Now I could see on the left side of the display that the computer said "New content available" along with four news entries on the right side. The news entries seemed to be about the DLC. I clicked on the scrolling "New content available" and was taked to my internet browser (IE8) to a page where the DLC was listed for download. Three items were listed: Collector's Armor/Weap, Normandy Crash and Zaeed. So I downloaded them, I've installed them today.
In the Collector's edition box was another game-key that seemed to be for the DLC - but I already had the DLC (even though I hadn't installed it yet). So I think that registering the game (in this forum) recognized from the (manual's) game-key that I had installed the Collector's edition and had already enabled the proper DLC and was just waiting for me to click on that "New content" item in-game. Attempting to enter that third game-key at masseffect.com (or "redeem promo code") got me nothing but the "key already used" message which is as it should be since I already had the DLC.
If there is a problem with getting the DLC it may be that you must just click that "New content available" item in-game to get taken to the download page.

Have there been any fixes to the connection timeout/interruption error for Cerberus Network? That is the only thing holding me back from accessing and using my DLC because I can't get to the log-in screen to activate/authenticate it.
can you provide exact repro steps for what you are seeing? is the connecting interrupting from xbox live or from cerberus? also, a what point is it interrupting
