The 'retry' button remains grayed out and non-clickable. I've also been googling, and I don't recall Google having some offline internet search option, though they might some day have one for April 1st. Hitting the button to activate the product key only goes through the rotating splash screen, then gives a message that my PC is offline - which it isn't I'm logged into Origin and I've been able to read through the first 10 pages of this board so I'm pretty sure that my PC is connected to the internet. I had hoped to play it in the afternoon, then shifted to hoping to play it in the evening, then shifted to hoping I'd be able to play it before midnight, but it refuses to activate. Today I finally caved in and, through Origin, purchased Mass Effect 3 (N7 Digital Deluxe edition, PC platform).Įverything downloaded just fine (though very slow), installed just fine.
