Who normally gets a patch first, the PC or the consoles?

Hopefully it'll be available soon. I didn't have any problem with bugs in Origins and I played through it three times. In Awakening however after about 15 hours, I can say it's probably the most buggy game I have ever played.

I second that...  I never had any problems with Bioware games but Awakening is the new king of bugs & glitches in PC gaming.

Dude... you do realise their being developed by two very very diffrent teams. Totally seperated and independent. Sure, some switch over, and after Origins the team is smaller, but they still remain and have nothing to do with Star Wars.

Like Blizzard for example. You think the guys working on Diablo 3 or Starcraft 2 also worked on the recently released Diablo 2 patch? Nope.

Of course, with a new Dragon Age product on the way, they might focus attention on that. :(


Blizzard has a virtually unlimited amount of money and a product that requires very little creative maintenance. They can also hire a virtually unlimited number of monkeys with typewriters.

All other game companies have severe budgetary and personnel limitations, and Bioware is no exception. Of course they won't shout  it from the rooftops, but you can bet your ass people and focus have been shifted.

DA was vigorously hyped and served its purpose (made money), now it will be shuffled aside in favor of the MMO. The proof is in the pudding - or rather, in the DLC store. The game has always been buggy and half-baked, and 1.03 made things worse - yet all we get an April 1st special that probably took less than 16 man-hours to complete. And on the subject of patch, the silence is deafening.

No, Bioware isn't evil, they simply don't have the people to work on a project that has already been bled dry money-wise, when another much-awaited and hyped project is waiting in the wings.

Ok do you realise that blizzard has 3 games running at the moment world of warcraft, diablo, and starcraft. If as you say they got the money to higher an unlimited amount of monekeys with typwrites then thier games wouldnt have bugs and stuff so they do so it dosent matter how many people you have to fix the stuff is how well they fix it or how well they can keep ppl updated on a fix

I think gaming companies need to be reported to the Better Business Bureau. There is absolutely no accountability by them whatsoever. If they CHOOSE to fix a game they released half-****ed, then we're supposed to be happy with that. There needs to be some organization that watches over these companies to make sure they are tested and market-ready. Because, obviously, the companies don't police themselves for the most part. So we, as gamers, have come to expect that with our hard-earned dollars, a game could very well be a piece of sh!t, which many of them are. At best, they are 90% complete when they are released. Now, with the amount of hardware out there, I'm willing to give them a little bit of a break, but bugs in this game that are so obvious across the board that are addressed with the attitude of "get fixed when we get around to it" is absolutely ridiculous. Especially when we can't return them for a refund. Which, if I could, I would return this piece of crap game. Good companies will admit a mistake, apologize and fix it as soon as possible.



Bioware, these are MAJOR bugs that should not only have been caught before the game went out the door, but fixed the next day or the next week at the latest. Your customer service is absolute crap. I play an mmo and as soon as a major bug is tagged, it is fixed. Usually the next day at the latest. What do you think would happen if you were a hardware store and sold a lawnmower that was known to have problems, and was only 50 - 90% complete? The owner would take it back to get his/her money back. Now say that store refused to do that. All hell would break loose, and you'd be on the 6:00 news that evening. Somehow,you get you get away with this on an almost daily basis.



I love PC games, and Bioware's games in particular, but this is just ridiculous and taking waaaay to long to address. It's time we gamers hold these companies accountable with our dollars, and let them know we aren't going to lie down and take it. Have we even seen an apology for this mess?

I agree with this Aeropostle, plus the fact that companies release DLC makes this fact worse.

Keep dreaming.



Why release patches when you can keep releasing DLC to keep people's attention focused elsewhere AND make money while you are at it.
