I'm having some problems with EA's brilliant "Steam killer" client.
I have added some people to play ME3MP with, but none of them show up online. I have tested it with a friend and even though we could chat with each other, he was shown as offline (btw, he could see that I'm online).
Another problem: I can't access Origin from ME3. I have seen many people with this problem on forums.
Does anyone know a solution to these issues?

He might have his chat status set to invisible.

None of my friends are online, ever.
I checked my friend's friend list. He has 50+ friends and it says all of them are offline.
According to Origin I'm the only one who is logged in...
EDIT: Also my friend who helped me test wasn't set to invisible, his status was set to "online", but he still didn't show as online for me.

I go invisible all the time. People on my friends list see me in rooms quite often but I'm usually just set to invisi so I don't get invites to games (or people join private solos in progress).

So there is no solution? Why did I even expect anything that is EA-related to work...
I've had the same issue with Origin in game since November. Still no reliable fix that I've been able to find.
EA. Don't expect too much.
In other news it turns out the sky is blue, and sometimes black.
(or is it white and gold?)

First it´s white and gold but then it turns blue and black.
Yeah, Origin sucks. I still can't join games hosted by the majority of my friends list. As far as I can recall, TheShadyEngineer is the only person who can successfully invite me in ME3. It also likes to randomly pop me into offline mode for no apparent reason...

I haven't looked into tech support about it, so I don't know what's usually suggested, but have you tried running it in windowed mode? For some reason I can use Origin in-game in windowed, but not in full screen. And I can't have Origin it self open in another window either.

Also, try turning off all other overlays like Fraps, Cortex, &c &c.

Oh sh*t. I just realized I'm always running Fraps, but tonight I forgot to run it and the Origin overlay was working.....I really hope that's not just a coincidence. I gotta do some more testing tomorrow.
Damn, looks like I'm destined to play with pugs for the rest of my life.

It's not a coincidence IME. Besides, now that you know what frame rates you get, you don't need it on all the time, right?

At least you'll have something to kill, as opposed to when playing with the totally OP crowd from around here.
Well, with the one obvious exception

Don't seem to get this problem with MSI Afterburner...

Can't tell if disagreeing or just gloating 
Do what I do and make the game run on Steam.
Set Origin as a Steam shortcut, rename it to "Mass Effect 3", change the icon to the .exe of the game, launch the shortcut, then launch ME3 through Origin once it loads.
Now if only we could invite other players to our games like that.

If you rename it to "PowerPoint" instead then your Steam friends will think you're working instead of playing ME3
I still cant invite people from game. It is over 4 months that I have that issue.
Origin:
Take cover! (Lag bombing incoming!!, engage hate-surfing!)
Youre terrible (nothing has changed since the beginning has it?)
Objective cloaked!!! (We the player(s) are invisible to everyone and cant invite)
Keep going (we expect the same server efficiency in ME 4/Next/Name that Title)
We're taking casualties! ( You crash to desktop when you select Multplayer from Main Menu)

Are you saying Origin has the efficiency of a Cerberus squad? If so - I see what you did there

Heh - neither, offering an alternative to FRAPS. one that seems to work OK with Origin
