Cannot use MP Content 4 due to 'missing patch' / ??!

★★★★★ Novice

Let me start by saying that last time I played ME3 was a few months ago - however, Origin SHOULD autoupdate my files of ME3 upon launch - which it didn't, so I assumed that ME3 was up-to-date. *sighs*

Now everytime I start up ME3, I get the error that I cannot use MP Content Pack 4 (whatever that one is) due to a missing patch. How the hell can I fix that without having to reinstall ME3?

Hi mbsteinnl,

 

Have you already tried to let Origin check for updates and repair your installation?

 

When you right-click on your Mass Effect 3 icon in Origin you will get this:

If you choose "Show Game Details" you can do the same for every DLC individually:

MP Content 4 is the "Retaliation" DLC. You can find your DLC in these folders:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Mass Effect 3\BIOGame\DLC

C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Mass Effect 3\BIOGame\DLC\__metadata

 

Hope that helps!

Thats because this thread is 6 years old and the Origin version today is completely different from the one used 6 years ago. 

 

Do you have "Automatic game updates" enabled in Origin? (Origin > Application Settings > Client update > Automatic game updates > ON (Green)

 

If that don't helps, create a new Topic in the ME3 section with as much details about the problem as possible.
