I've never seen one expire, but seems like I don't pick up many EA games. The closest I've seen is the Uncharted 2 goty dlc stuff that said it expired in 10/2010, but I activated mine this past April. That's a real douche move from EA if true.
Oh I'm sure someone will try.
We had a thread where people were defending Afghani child rape.
It's not EA's fault you took your good old fashioned time buying the game. Maybe you should buy a fuckin' calendar!
paging cpp_is_king ASAP
Nirolak must be psychic.
lol
Where are the gaffers that defend online passes? Please defend this
lol, throw your new, sealed game in the garbage it reeks already two days past expiration date. Buy another online code to deliver it fresh at your door, don't forget to pay for fast delivery.It's not EA's fault you took your good old fashioned time buying the game. Maybe you should buy a fuckin' calendar!
one of my "fuuuuuuuuuuu" moments i know will happen to me eventually in the future.
bummer to hear about that op
I remember my friends BF3 code didn't work and he tried to get a replacement but he couldn't :/ pretty messed up
Well that's bullshit.
And I was planning to buy Hot Pursuit sometime soon here once I'm done with my pile from the last few months.
Is it worth it just for the single player? (Because I sure as hell am not buying a separate pass.)
And yes, the online codes expire ONE YEAR after launch even if it's a new copy. Bad Company 2 does it as well, check the back of the box for the online pass expiration date disclaimer.
The expiration date should be in tiny text somewhere on the back. This can be kind of really difficult to check when ordering online.Do these games with expiring DLCs have print in them so that the customer will know before buying? I was thinking of getting the U2 GOTY.
Been chatting with EA live chat for the last couple of hours....
In short, they issued a new code....didn't work again. Told me to create a new PSN account....lol. I even tried that. Code didn't work still. Now apparently they're going to launch an investigation and possibly get back to me...
I hate this online code garbage.
Exxpiirreed
PM me one of the codes, maybe it's just your account. I can give it a shot.
I tried it on different accounts, didn't work.
Just wait for the complaints from people who buy an old game and pay for an online pass only to have them shut down the servers a week later. It'll be fun times once that starts happening.As if online passes couldnt get any worse.
Also they gave me 20% off any game on their Origin store.
Code expires in 1 month.
Different region maybe? I dont know

They'll probably issue refunds (since the servers they shutdown are usually for the games that not many are playing..or many are buying passes if needed).Just wait for the complaints from people who buy an old game and pay for an online pass only to have them shut down the servers a week later.

Though are you on PS3 too?Just opened my limited edition copy i got. Same problem. But my sheet with the code has no expiration on it. Just says one code per ea account.
Snuggler was being sarcastic.
