I understand the reason why digital games have to have the same release dates as the physical ones but why do the do that for the trial.

I'm hoping it is a typo. A BIG TYPO! Indeed would be quite the typo, adding "March 18th in" like that. Their proof reading really needs work if so.

Hmmm. Either Origin hasn't been updated yet or someone over at BioWare (or EA) has it wrong, since over here in the UK it's still saying the trial begins on the 16th.

"The journey begins on March 21 in North America and March 23 in Europe. EA Access and Origin Access members can begin their Play First Trial starting March 16 in North America and March 18 in Europe." What. D: They couldn't have told us that before everybody went and subscribed to Origin/EA Access? They announce it 3 days before it was supposed to start? I mean, we will (probably?) be able to unlock the trial early via vpn just like the full game later, but still sucks. And I don't really get the reason behind it...

Still like i mentioned earlier, the preload is only starts on the evening of the 17th Indeed. Though the confusion arises when the trial, when it was its own product on the library, was available on the evening of the 15th. Still, only two more days I guess.

EA Access and Origin Access members can begin their Play First Trial starting March 16 in North America and March 18 in Europe." Are they beeping serious? Origin says preload is on the 15th but sure, keep us away for another 2 day. The release date delay on its own is stupid enough. It's fine for retail, but digital copies should unlock everywhere at the same time.

Anyone going to try see if EA support is going to offer compensation for months of blatant false advertising and misleading customers? 2 days push back is a small thing but bad business practices are not.
The fact that they didnt even apologize but just put the info in an article few are going to look at only 3 days before is very fishy.

I live in Aus and the full game releases on the 22nd (at 11PM though). The trial, however, did not get pushed back for me. Its still the 16th.

Shady, sure. Borderline illegal (yes they have some "entitled to make changes without notice" line somewhere in small text but still), uh.... Then again, SimCity happened ._.

I've not know trials to go live on different days before? DAI had a different us/eu release can anyone remember if the trial went active at the same time? Plus the 18th is a Saturday. That would be unusual.

Been talking to Aaryn Flynn on twitter about this issue. He seemed completely unaware of it and is chasing it up. Tried to send him a link to the german Origin site to show what it says, but I think it might have just been the UK site in German - not that it makes any difference; UK site also says 16th, not 18th, so who knows.
If it isn't the 16th worldwide, there's been a massive massive miscommunication with many official channels.

It would appear the information on the Mass Effect website is wrong. I just asked EA support on twitter and was told it starts on the 16th worldwide.

I feel sorry for the devs - everything's fine and they're enjoying the Jaal reactions and then suddenly there's hoardes of people contacting them about Early Access issues that might not even be a widespread problem save for the MEA site itself.

EA Finlad just advertises that early access is on 16th, so I gave them a link and a question about it. Let's see if there's an answer.

This better be a mistake, because there is absolutely zero excuse for Trial version to be pushed back to 18th for Europeans.
Fine, get it for release version due to retailers. But Trial version on Origin to be delayed?! This completely on EA and Bioware!

We're just lucky that Mass Effect fans are, on the whole, moderate and restrained people who don't jump to conclusions, wildly overreact, or take things in the most negative way possible.

From Spain
"Fecha de disponibilidad de precarga para Windows: 15 de Marzo 2017 22:30 CET" "Fecha de publicación para Windows: 15 de Marzo 2017 22:30 CET"
A fellow poster in the Twitter Thread said maybe it's related with some of us accessing to the trial icone before March 12th and no preorders yet

I pre-ordered my game before accessing the trial. Bought Origin Access > Bought Game > Applied for Trial. This all happened in February. It disappeared when my order was completed. I think both the trial and full game were merged. Hopefully it will show up on the 15th/16th. I want to let it download while I'm at work so I can play when I get home.
