Apparently griefing intrusion is possible in ME3 co-op

So I wanted to jump into a Platinum game to make some quick cash

A player named OPEC_husariaPL comes in as an opponent usually as a quarian engineer and can attack you with his powerset and it isn't his game, he popped up in other I tried to jump in ,

I've never hosted anytime , so all those players maybe compromised in some way.

Apparently he grief other games mostly Star Wars games from what I gather

Hi. I was talking to a friend yesterday, and we both talked about how much we loved ME3's MP when we played it years ago. I decided to take a peek and saw it was on sale on Steam, so I decided to pick it up and relive some of my favorite MP gaming. I played it last night for a little over an hour - still suck at the game but had a blast, no issues.

About an hour ago I booted the game up again, but as soon as I click Quick Match my game instantly crashes. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but this hasn't helped either. Anyone have a similar experience or an idea as to the cause? I tried looking around but couldn't find anything that worked or applied to me.

The beachballs with legs have really cool kits imo especially with the built in stealth but most of them feel a bit underwelming aside from shield boost spam. Cant seem to deal any good dmg, I can survive just fine but on gold I feel like I have to use shield boost on cooldown. Maybe cuz I cant build/play the char that well. Any experienced volus enjoyers, what is your favourite volus and how do you build the dam thing?

I am on PC with a controller mods. I have been getting level IV consumables in my pack but i don’t see them in my equipment.

All i see are level III.

There are no level IV even if i just got one from a pack.

What can be done to make it show up in the equipment?

I just re-installed the game.

When I click Play, after a few seconds I'm taken to a screen (in-app) saying "Could Not Activate"; then there's an "Enter Product Key" button.

Since I can visualize my key by right-clicking ME3 on the EA App, I tried to input it, but I never get the chance: EA App keeps saying I'm offline. "Retry" does nothing, same outcome.

I tried restarting the EA App...same outcome.

Is it going through some infrastructure problems at the moment?

Im loving the destroyer but cant for the life of me decide how to spec him. Im mainly undecided between frag grenade and hawk tuah missles. I wanna use the missle since its cool but it doesnt seem to do much dmg so maybe I should go with the old school grenades but idk. Any tips?

I know the best is the Cerberus Harrier, but dear goodness do I loath the spare ammo capacity of a Harrier I.

I have been playing around with my Lancer II instead, just to cleanse my palate (super limited spare ammo -> infinite spare ammo), but dunno if it's actually a strong choice or not. Works alright on Gold I guess.

New player here. I got slayer few days ago and used a full biotic charge/phase disruptor build and holy mother of god, this thing shreds everything. Why does noone play this dude? He is easily the most fun char I played with so far. Like sure he feels like a glasscannon and I never used him on gold or plat but still, I barely seen any slayers in silver. Does he have a weakness or smth that I dont realise?

Ps: any weapon/equipment recomendations?

Edit: wow turns out he does have a weakness I dont realise called lag. I almost always host so I didnt notice it I guess. Thanks for all the advice ppl

Up until now my favorite weapon platform was the N7 Destroyer, for stacking a million "always on" bonuses for rapid-fire weapons. However, one issue I had was mobility: how slow he moves and no dodge.

Then I tried Geth Engineer. With Hunter Mode, this guy zooms across the battlefield, yet never surprised by enemies because he can see through walls. And I get to keep all my always-on damage bonuses, most importantly the accuracy, to make Hurricane actually good at mid-range! Plus add Armor Piercing Ammo and can even kill enemies through walls with it whom I can see with Hunter Mode.

Since with these bonuses, Hurricane just solves all problems at a low weight, I can even utilize Overload with a short cooldown to say no to shields, no need for Acolyte. It even gets a damage bonus from Hunter Mode.

"Engineer" my ass, this guy shoots so hard it turns Gold into Silver. ❤️

(Note: Cyclonic Module is sort of mandatory if you don't want to die a lot on Gold.)

Growing up I was obsessed with Mass Effect, it's still one of my favorite stories and one of my all time favorite game franchises. I remember playing ME co op religiously back in highschool and had so much fun.

I recently got back into it and have been enjoying it so much. Coinciding with the lack of interest in modern games, ME3 multipkayer is really the only game I ever play when I play video games. I've been enjoying it so much, it feels like I'm back in a simpler time when all I had to focus on was the next wave, taking care of my teammates and completing the mission. It seems silly, but it was so, so simple compared to the trials and tribulations of being a grown man in the modern age.

I just lost my job before winter, my life is about to become very chaotic here and I am ready for the challenge. I just wanted to thank those of you that still play this game and enjoy spending time with each other completing objectives. It's like a haven for me to escape to when life becomes too much.

Sincerely, thank you for providing a cooperative space for me to escape to. We are just strangers playing a video game together by happenstance but it means a lot to me.

My gamertag on Xbox is AlpineHyde, I hope we connect in the future to keep vanquishing unlimited waves of our enemies. Say hi if you see me, even a dumb little melee in my face.

Much love, Hyde out.

I’ve maxed out all the silver weapons but not the silver mods and gear. Should I keep buying veteran packs until I do or just focus on Spectre and up.

My priority now is gold weapons, mods and gear but I don’t want to ‘waste’ chances by picking up silvers in the more expensive packs if it’s more efficient to keep getting veteran packs for now?

I just started playing mass effect 3 recently and I opened a pack that supposedly unlocked the "Krogan Warlord" but when I check my character select screen I don't have any krogans unlocked at all. I unlocked the batatian sentinel earlier and was able to use him immediately with no issues. I have every DLC as far as I know.

Edit: I'm just dumb and didn't realize you could scroll to the right on character selection. Hopefully someone else can learn from this post in the future....

I can still play them but theres just no one on. When is the best time to look for games

I have a PC that smashes the minimum requirements for the game, have the Origin in-game overlay disabled, yet I can only manage to get like 12 frames per second. Resolution changes have no impact, and I miss this gem of a game. Has anyone else had this issue + found a solution?

Recently I've had an issue where the option to buy packs with usd in the multiplayer store has vanished completely after purchasing a few premium spectre packs. Has anyone else had this issue and or have any solution's to get them back?

Looking for anyone who's willing to group up and play some co-op. People of moderate skill level who have at least played gold before are preferred. However all are welcome if they are up to it, my EA gamer tag is DocHoliday439.

Does anyone know if there’s any wider game-related reason that I’m getting consistently disconnected from multiplayer servers?

I’ve been trying to play some solo silver matches recently, but get disconnected without fail at around wave 4 or 5 - and I know that this game has had god awful servers and really annoying problems with disconnects, but I’ve never had it happen as consistently and constantly as it’s happened today and yesterday, I literally haven’t gotten past wave 5 on about 10 attempts.

Is there something I should be checking, some issue with my computers wifi connection that I can try and change to solve this? Thanks in advance

I used to play the game alot and I recently returned. I remember there was this glitch that allowed you to max out all 5 skills. Does that still work and if so, can someone remind me how to do it?

I keep seeing people comment about having trouble consistently hitting headshots. i'm just wondering, is it actually that bad because I can nail it with every headahot with a sniper rifle in andromeda

I noticed that a charged Kishock can easily 1-shot a Phantom with a headshot. It works when they are netted, in cover or just a lucky shot. But when they are in their defensive bubble, it seems to do very little damage - about 4 barrier segments from headshot.

What might be the reason? On long range, I like to throw the net just to get them to freeze in that mode, then headshot, but it doesn't do much damage.
