'We all want to be sure that it fixes the issues it is supposed to fix and doesn't start any new issues.' Ironically, BioWare community manager Chris Priestly justified the delay in delivering the update by saying, 'A new patch gets heavily tested by BioWare, EA, Microsoft and Sony before it can be released to the public. The patch was issued to address Mass Effect 3’s problem with face importing from earlier titles. Some have sidestepped the problem by disconnecting from Xbox Live, while others have had success clearing the system’s cache, swapping game discs or simply just trying over and over. Meanwhile, temporary workarounds have been suggested by the community. You can find more information on how to do that here. Players who have downloaded and installed the 4MB patch have been unable to reach Mass Effect 3’s main menu, as the game gets caught in an endless load cycle, attempting but failing to contact EA’s servers, or simply crashing the console completely.īioWare has said that it is “aware of the issues” and has asked users for help. The latest Mass Effect 3 title update is causing some consoles to crash, making the game unplayable.
