Origin is an annoyance at best, but at least it's not GFWL

"It seems that the dreaded customer support over at origin will be now be known to console users who purchase Mass Effect 3"

You guys do realize this will do the same thing what EA Online did for Mass Effect 2 right? It's just for accessing the daily news and uploading your character progress to Bioware Social. It's nothing more than that.

ya we know, we just like to whine about everything, and i don't like origin because it splits my game managing to two programs were on steam had everything neat and tidy but then i had to get origin for Battlefield 3 with its BRILLIANT use of a web browser launch point... lets just say this is venting

C_Menz5331d ago

I don't get why they are complaining about the so called bad customer support that Origin/EA has... Any problems you have you can literally go onto the support sight and get a live person to text chat to to solve your issue almost instantly.

dark-hollow5331d ago

Can't we have an EA game which we plug and play without all the ea account and online passes bullshit?

krazykombatant5331d ago

Don't have to worry about EA shit origin, will be fulfilling my trilogy on my x360.

LackTrue4K5331d ago

lol......i cant belive people come in this post, and just disagree with your comment?!

ginganinja5331d ago

hit above link...

read story...

wait a little to sink in...

possible reason for disagrees ?

(it's about origin being ON 360)

krazykombatant5331d ago

Oh wow.... Massive fail on my part.... Soooo wait wait wait.... Sigh......

Reborn5331d ago

Missed the part where it said console?

I see.

SageHonor5331d ago

Im getting it on PS3. I hope i dont have to have that crap

killershadow1175331d ago

What has origin done to warrant this kind of hatred? Its just EA's steam, and it isn't like it's making you do anything.

MetalNCarnet5331d ago

The main thing about Origin people hate is that it's a glorified TROJAN. EA can and does explore your hard drive to see what you have installed on your computer. It's borderline invasion of privacy.

gamingdroid5331d ago

I like the way you call it trojan, because that is exactly what it feels like.

EA also used to have in their terms of service the ability to delete your games if you are inactive on Origin for more than two years.

In short, Origin isn't consumer friendly and neither is EA.

When logic meets EA it generates anti-matter ..... so try not to apply it in any meaningful way. Entropy is what matters in there !!

badz14992d ago

cue the apologist saying that these are mostly just contractors hired for this specific project bla bla bla

The community warned them this would happen but nope they knew better they continued with the live service push the made the art style cartoonish and this is the result

isarai_lee104d ago

It's always so bizarre when studios announce something super early in development under the suggestion of forming the game to player feedback, and then they push against all feedback heading straight for the cliff while everyone is warning them along the way

lol ya think? they're sending all that work to the cheaper labor market as soon as possible. and FYI, that labor market has exploded in the last 5-10 years. They have enough people to replace every single job. But honestly, EA is over filled with useless upper management as it is. You could probably trim 25% of their staff with no real loss in production. They aren't gamers, they're business execs. Just look at how many AI related jobs they're already starting to post. Its also hilarious that PIF owns Battle field 6

lodossrage138d ago (Edited 138d ago )

Wait,

The same congress that attacked Lina Khan when she fought the Microsoft Activision purchase.
The same congress that allowed Disney to buy 90% of Fox
The same congress that allowed Liv Golf to buy the PGA
The same congress that sits back while Paramount tries a hostile takeover despite losing the bid for Warner Bros.

NOW, the suddenly cares about doing what's "right" for works? Yeah, right.

thorstein138d ago

No. There were elections and some of the scum were replaced.

TheColbertinator138d ago

Different elections. Different scum. Same results.

rlow1138d ago

i know its a long shot, but i hope this gets shot down.

EA now owned by The Saudis and Ubisoft to inevitably be owned by China. In hindsight, once EA and Ubisoft started having their financial woes, they should have pulled a Koei Tecmo/Bandai Namco by merging their operations into one.
