    Mass Effect 3 demo now unplayable as Origin is offline.

    It seems anytime they have a release of any kind they manage to mess up all the servers.

    I can't play BF3 now either.

    I think it's to do with fixing backwards compatibility with older EA games.

    It's not limited to this game but many people myself included bought the older battlefield games during the sale, battlefield 2142 for example is ****ed up and won't work due to origin/ea account messing up.

    Game is registered to new EA account (origin) but needs a old classic screen name to play, problem is the old account is not registered to the game serial key as the new accounts are.


    Customer support are retarded as in the same email conversation they both told me to make a new origin account then 3 emails later asked why i did that.
