The Mass Effect 3 thread

bring on friday.

takealot better drop my N7 CE at my office on friday :twisted:
 
I ordered my N7 CE as well :).

They should start shipping on Thursday for everyone to get it on Friday atleast.
 
The status of my order on Takealot shows ready to ship. Maybe it will be like Dragon Age 2 when they delivered a day earlier.

We can only hope.
 
Hi, TakeAlot is sending a ME3 M55 Argus Assault Rifle DLC code to everyone who pre-ordered a copy of ME3 (N7 edition. Not sure about the normal edition). I've received the code. I've redeemed it without any problems.
 
My order status = Pre Order, WTF

did get my DLC code though. how do you use it? do I wait to install the game?
 
I have my copy currently downloading on pirate bay. I feel a real sense of loss doing this as I haven't pirated in years.

I will not be forced to use origin. If it's not on steam I am not interested.

hopefully it will eventually be available on steam so I can buy it legally.

Sounds like a lame excuse for pirating a game. Origin seriously hasn't affected me one bit, it's almost always online, it keeps my games up to date without any hassle... can't think of any other reason why you don't want to use it.

Same here :( I hail from Eastern Cape. I guess those who live in major cities will be likely to get ME3 1 day before the release date.

I have to say I hate Origin too. It's the reason I bought Battlefield 3 on PS3. If I wasn't getting ME3 on console I'd probably pirate the game.
 
Got my DLC code this morning and redeemed it with no hassle, my order status is also still pre order... so long as I get it by Friday though I'll be happy...

Dude, if you don't like Origin doesn't mean you have to pirate a copy of any EA-Origin game.

As long as you show your support to the awesome team who developed ME3 by buying a copy of ME3 then crack it so you don't have to use Origin to play it then it's totally OK in my opinion.

I am not going to pay for what is effectively a broken unsupported version. This is my small protest, I will happily pay for it if I can get it through steam. I support paying for the software I use. I don't support being forced into a service I don't want to use.

Thankfully mass effect 3 is the only game I have between looking forward to from EA, after the massive cockup they made of command and conquer I simply don't trust EA to do the right thing.

Another drama queen !

Pirate if you want, I am nobody to go pointing fingers, but using the excuse of only being able to get it through origin is stupid.

Your protest won't make a difference at all, sadly :( EA is well known for not giving a crap if their games are broken as long as they are making money.

Do you know that EA will NEVER let their games to be available on Steam? It's not BioWare's fault that we have to use Origin in order to play ME3.

You don't support being forced into a service you don't want to use... really? This is exactly what everyone said when certain games forced you to use steam.

Meh. EA has alot of my money and will not give it back. Thus some of us, as am I, are attaching some of their assets in the form of intelectual property as reparations for foul business practices.

Swift, painless, albeit slightly vigilante'esk*, justice.

What are there resons for non refunds? That this will inconvenience them increadibly as they will have to wait another 5 seconds to be able to afford a new plot of land for their mountain of money?



*Is that even a word? It sounds right and has meaning when I say it in my head?

Don't be silly man, EA didn't develop this game, Bioware did. EA are the distributors in this case. Don't take out your anger on Bioware for a grudge that you have against EA :)
