Can i play me3 without origin

Go to Solution. Googled a bit and found some more possible solutions to your problem not that they are particularly fun but they might help :. As you can see most of the solutions that I found seams to be circling around reinstalling the origin client, not that fun but it was what I was able to find. View in thread. It's impossible to play mass effect 3 without origin as far as I know. However, there seams to be a way to disable Origin in game. According to EAs official help you can do this through these steps:.

I hope it solves your problem. If not, give us feel free to ask again and I'll see if I can find some other solution a bit more information would be appreciated though. Note, step by step for disabling Origin in game comes from this article at EAs official help center. Yah I figured that out on my own right after I posted that I went through all the Origin stuff and unchecked near all of it. I checked out all the system req stuff and it should be alright as well as well as firewall checks, etc.

I managed to get another 10 mins of gameplay in, finally taking down the 2 nasties that I was having trouble with cuz I'm not a shooter girl , and bam..

That's the 8th time it's crashed since I started playing it 6 hours ago. I downloaded this game because I wanted a cool game, where I can be a strong female character, and not have to deal with the annoying people on chat like my other regular mmorpg. Just a nice single player I could immerse myself in, relax and enjoy the ride The visuals are amazing, the storyline is gripping; a stellar rpg, from what I can see.

I figured to download meant I'd just get a game, like back in the old days where you bought a nintendo cartridge, and just jammed it in the machine. Now I just charged my Visa for a super beautiful game, free with advertising and social networking I don't want, that won't play. Okie dokes. After playing with settings and restarting a couple times, it's now staying on a fairly long time. I made an extra character in easy mode, so it's just such a big deal when it poofs, and I've managed to stay on for at least 3 hours.

I'll wait a day or two and see if it settles down, and if not I'll just try re-downloading. People don't like to be forced to use a client when playing a game. People have already accepted Steam as a client, which offers far more than just EA games and people refuse to spend money on another client, especially one that is more intrusive to your hardware. And besides, it's EA, and people associate EA with greed, which is a good point, because when looking at the digital release of Mass Effect 2 on the Playstation Network, the price has not dropped one bit, while in reality the game can be bought for a fraction of that price.

Using guides or walkthroughs is NOT cheating. User Info: StinkyHo User Info: Mhunter User Info: kroonermanblack. Buy the game, then use a cracked or pirated version. Supports the devs, bypasses origin. Likely will be buggy and difficult to update though.

Also, since EA is the owner, any purchase supports origin. Except used. Which supports GameStop or whatever pawn shop you buy it in. So choose your evil. Because GameStop has never and will never produce anything.

They just cut out devs and sell used stuff. It just doesn't shut the game down, only the EA galaxy at war thing. D4rkSektor Status: Offline. By mad - Tue Mar 27, am. OR we can assume that everyone is an genius, you know because we are totally going on a presumption. In any case, my browser is more bloated than Origin. Never seen it go above MB apart from a few general leaks in the older versions.

Origin takes up mb at idle. By tishyw - Tue Mar 27, am. Point 2 is incorrect, you only need to authenticate the DLC once, the same as the main game. And, re all you're points, so people don't like having to install 3rd party software to play their games, and they have every right to ask questions about it. Maybe it is because it tells me that my DLC is messed up and I need to connect to alliance network.

Please close the game and try again. Origin is fine. I actually like it better than Steam in some ways, and it's always better to have competition than a single platform. But it's such a hassle to have to juggle multiple platforms, I'd much rather just stick to one, but it's impossible if you want to play everything. Origin isn't terrible, and in some ways I'm glad it exists. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw ME2 and other games which I had bought elsewhere were collected into one library for download.

I know it'll probably never happen and I hate to be a douche about this but I have ME2 and all my other PC games on Steam and I really don't want to download another program that does the same thing only with fewer games.

I'll probably cave soon though. I've been itching to replay it and I'd like that to be on the PC.
