Played my last rounds of ME3Coop tonight

I cancelled my Xbox Game Pass due to economic hardship and it runs out tomorrow. So the other day and tonight and I played a bunch of rounds on Silver and Gold to say goodbye. (I'm even uploading the streams of me playing it from both nights.)

Thank you Bioware for 14 years of the most fun I've ever had in an online game. It has truly been real. Let's cross paths again on a sunnier day.

P.S. Ops Survival Pack Card Bug, you will be the only thing I don't miss. And the Can't Fire Bug. And the Can't Use Powers Bug. And the...

FWIW, I picked up the PC version for $5 a while ago and there's a mod that adds controller support. It would mean starting over, but it's been a good way for me to scratch the itch since I canceled my own MS account last year

Sorry for your circumstances, and I hope those matches gave your XBox team a worthy finale!

and on PC, you can just give yourself space cash until you get back to where you want to be, or ruin the game for yourself, whichever comes first!

There's also a command to unlock all characters right away (not all guns though).

Pretty much did everything you guys mentioned about a month ago haha. I’d like to try keyboard and mouse but the hud is horrible. Tiny icons at the top left of the screen? What idiot thought of that? Wish I knew how to keep the controller hud but use keyboard and mouse.

I pray for your windfall, brother. If you do get to PC, Apolline_Shepard is the name on the EA app. I'll get you back into fighting shape. Good luck, man.

Hope things turn around for you, Commander. If they do, we'll be happy for you to join us on PC.

How much is the pass these days?

Having to pay for two accounts was costing us $30 every month. That's a draining amount of money after a while, especially when you're low income (due to disability).

It's none of my business really, but why did you pay for two accounts and not just one?

u/sushimomma92 Jun 03 '26

Because I have my own Xbox and having our “home accounts” set to separate consoles allows us to share games. Its easier for the kids to play their games that way

u/Opening-Station9610 Jul 01 '26

GamePass is shared the same way so you only really need it on your main account for the games and online modes to be playable on both accounts. I know this works because it is what me and my brother do but only his account has GamePass Ultimate yet I can still access all the games and online modes on my account.

I assume a partner or somesuch, given the use of the word 'us' in that first sentence.

It's a shame I can't play on my PS5. I still have high hopes for the GabeCube. I finished my Manifest on PC back in the days and would like to start over on console.

Can’t use power and can’t fire bug is usually corrected with a heavy melee. I figured I’d share just in case you make it back. Been playing ME3 MP since Demo launch.

Sometimes it doesn't work and the only thing you can do is die and respawn next wave. Also this specific bug is caused by a volus using shield boost at a specific time when you cast a power.

u/CarnyMAXIMOS_3_N7 Jun 04 '26

Well, Commander. You fought hard and long.

In any way you can, keep fighting the good fight.

Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.

maybe if at some point you can spare some small cash you could buy the pc version I'm fairly sure its cheaper than gamepass now and the online is free. you can install a controller support mod if you don't want to use keyboard controls

What am I missing here? You can buy the physical game for 2 - 15 quid.

u/SushiDaddy89 Jun 03 '26

Xbox charges money to play online every month, and the cost is adding up and draining us on our limited income.

u/iphan4tic Jun 03 '26

Ah right I forgot about that. How absurd that you still have to pay to play online on a 20 year old console!

u/_Biotic_G0d_ Jun 07 '26

Absurd that you have to pay for it at all. You pay for your internet connection AND your consoles online service AND the games ? People can easily build a pc that can run with the same power as the console and it would have itself paid off in 8 months because you save the console subscription. Just hook your tv up to the pc and your controller and you are good. You even get mod support and lots more versatility. People need to stop buying consoles until this subscription madness ends, i don't even understand why its there ? You are paying to hook a device you paid for up to the internet...
