Hey guys, I am new to this forum, so I have question about purchasing all 3 Mass Effects and all dlcs, I played it before at my friends, something on console, something on PC, now I finally have a PC that can run those games great. So I installed Origin, and when I click on mass effect triology, I noticed that there are no dlc for ME2 and ME3, so I went to see each game separetly and it turns out even if I buy ME2 and ME3 digital deluxe edition I still wouldnt get all dlcs. So is there any way to buy it all, I would be grateful for any advice, of course I am trying to find cheapest way to purchase all 3 games plus dlcs. thx very much

Nope, unfortunately not. You have to buy the DLC separately :/

 

Oh, and they never go on sale. That's EA for you

If you also play around with the idea of getting it for PS3, there were some sales sometimes. Last year in February when I had just finished my ME3 run, there luckily was a sale going on during that time on the PSN. I saved 50% for each DLC, which was a lot. From what I gathered here on the forums, for PC the DLC prices never drop, but I'm not 100% sure if that's really correct, as I never played on PC before myself.

I believe the Trilogy does have some DLC for ME2:

What DLC is included in the Mass Effect Trilogy?

•On PC, Mass Effect will include Bring Down the Sky and Pinnacle Station on disk. For Mass Effect 2, Cerberus Network will be included which features Zaeed – The Price of Revenge, The Firewalker Pack, Cerberus Assault Gear, Arc Projector heavy weapon, and Normandy Crash site mission. For Mass Effect 3, Online Pass will be included granting players access to co-op multiplayer. On Xbox 360, Bring Down the Sky and Pinnacle Station are not included, however they are available as stand-alone downloads through Xbox LIVE. For Mass Effect 2, Cerberus Network will be included and Online Pass will be included for Mass Effect 3. On PlayStation 3, Bring Down the Sky will be included both on disc and on the PSN download, Mass Effect 2 will still have the same DLC on-disc that it was originally shipped with: Cerberus Network; Genesis; Kasumi; Overlord; and Lair of the Shadow Broker. Finally, Mass Effect 3 will also be exactly as it originally shipped.

If you wait and keep checking Origin the base games often go on sale.  The DLCs don't, but if you pick up the base games on sale then it'll help make the whole thing more affordable.

so triology costs 40 euros on origin, and dlcs for me2 and me3 costs together aprox 7000 points, and since 800 points costs 10 euros, I would have to pay around 90 euros for dlcs, so base games costs 40 euros, and dlcs costs 90 euros OMG OMG well done EA/Bioware

 

is there any way to earn points instead of buying them? through playing games or something like that?

I'm afraid not you can only pay for them. They may seem expensive but they'er well worth it once you have them though. Which is why I'm kind of glad I do.

well ok, but it is really stupid that I cant go to origin and buy dlcs directly, instead of buying the points first and then dlc with points, doesnt make sense

 

anyway, thx for help

you can do it all through Origin now if you prefer anyway so I guess that makes it easier. It took longer to do it through the BSN system before ME3 came out. Although presonally I'd have preffered it if they'd stuckto that system though as I prefer the idea of downloading them and installing them manually when I need to. But I guess that's how things work now.

Pretty sure some dlc comes with the games so shouldnt cost that much. Unfortunately dlc never gets cheaper & think last time seen dlc on sale was Christmas like 3 years ago

I think it's pretty much what everyone else said.  You have to buy them separate.  It sucks, but in all honesty it's worth it, at least to me.  Mass Effect has a special place in my heart so most of the time I'm always in "shut up and take my money" mode when it comes that.

 

But it is stupid that it's not all packed in the trilogy....but it makes sense, given that this is EA we're talking about.

Believe this had more to do with the time of release, as some DLC for the first two games are included.

Finally, Mass Effect 3 will also be exactly as it originally shipped.

The Digital Deluxe Edition upgrade for ME3 goes on special fairly often for 50% off and that gets you the From Ashes DLC, but to get the rest of the ME2 and ME3 mission DLCs for PC you need to spend ~$120 (CA) for Bioware points... which is a ridiculous amount.

 

Here are links to the ME2 and ME3 DLC pages:

https://social.biowa...om/page/me2-dlc

https://social.biowa...om/page/me3-dlc

 

Those pages used to have purchase buttons which indicated the cost (in Bioware points for PC, $ for the other platforms), but they have recently been replaced with a single Buy Now button - which requires that you log in to get to the page where you add the DLCs to the games, and visit another page to actually purchase the Bioware points if your account doesn't have enough points for the purchase. I'm hoping the change means there will be other changes coming along (better price and maybe even dropping the Bioware point nonsense), but it may just be the old marketers trick of trying to get the consumer more involved because that apparently tends to increase sales.

I know that I have LotSB and the one that added Zaeed off of the ME2 list, but certainly do not have most of those item packs. I saved those funds for other things; nothing compelled me to get them. I own more of the ME3 DLC, but again, not all.

That is called freedom of choice.
