Just to let you all know that the patch has gone through EA Cert and has now made it to Sony's hands! I don't have an official release date estimate yet, but with a little bit of luck we may still see it late this week. I'll update you when we know more.
The upcoming patch addresses:
- The high rate of crashing on firmware 3.3.
- The issue where redeeming codes was no longer showing the free download items.
- Adds the trophies for the upcoming Darkspawn Chronicles DLC
Once again, my sincere thanks to all of you that posted on here and helped us track this down.

Thanks for fixing something that should of never happened in the first place. At least I will be able to get back to my games.
As for the other fixes; what about the DEX BUG that consoles have with dual wielding characters. I have played the game on the PC and the console using the exact same build with the exact same stats and the PC game my character was more useful and more powerful than my console counterpart. Not having DEX impact a dagger damage hurts dual wielding rogues greatly.
I'm not sure if this is true or not but I also heard that there is a DEX bug for those who prefer to use bows; though it only impacts consoles.
Bioware need to to fix these issues for both PC and consoles at the same time instead of leaving the console consumers out in the dark. The thing is that the longer it takes EA and Bioware to correct the bugs it hurts one thing and one thing only; future sales of DLC, expansions and maybe even DA2.
I have to say that customer service has greatly depreciated over the years not only in retail stores but also from the business that produced the final product. I remember having great support and regular updates from game developers. Today we are lucky if we get one or two; this is even true with PCs.
I really want to play the new DLC and any other future DLC for DAO but will not purchase any until the dagger bug and the other bugs that were fixed on the PC are fixed on the consoles.
I already invested over $120 on DAO . I will invest more money but the BUGS need to be fixed, especially if those of us who have the PS3 are paying $10+ more for our copies of the same game that is on the PC.
I understand the programming is different but that is just an excuse that is getting old. The PS3 is not a brand new machine. It has been out now for quite some time; man up and fix the issue to keep us PS3 fans happy so we can buy more DLCs, expansions and DA2 if and when it is released.
Again, thanks for the fix and will allow me to play DAO again without experiencing constant freezing.
