Well this is a total load of bull.  Integrated or not, you still need a specific driver for a given chip to run properly.  It's HOW it's delivered is what makes them different.  (PCI/AGP/etc).

Additionally, the windows OS has very little to do with interpretation.   It's the drivers responsibility from the driver's manufacturer to do the interpretation.  All the windows OS does recognize a specific piece of hardware and attach a specific driver to it (in lamens terms).  Windows offload's audio functions to the audio driver...which in itself is manufactured by another company.

Please get your facts straight.

I acknowledge this post is completely off topic.


I never tried to imply drivers were not a problem, just that you aren't usually going to get a lot of sound card driver special support anymore simply because of how the sound card market has dried up and how things have become standardized.

There's little special drivers anymore thanks to the Universal Audio Architecture which has helped standarize how sound cards handle things.  Between the UAA: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Audio_Architecture  and Intel's specification en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_High_Definition_Audio, there's been a lot of standardization of these items, as opposed to the past Operating System and special card ways of handling it.  Note too that class drivers have taken over from vendor specific drivers for sound.

My point still stands--you don't see a lot of specific sound card support forums because the market has changed.

I've only ever experienced one game crash and that was my own fault. Other than that, I have had absolutely ZERO problems with DAO, serious or otherwise.. Some people just can't handle it when someone says that, I suppose..


Probably because that's just plain misleading. It's not that you don't have bugs, you just choose to either ignore them/don't notice them/or they don't detract from your fun even though you do notice them. There are a lot of issues that aren't system dependant, which everyone suffers from without exception(point in case many item modifiers simply don't work at all, like +healing, dagger damage has been bugged for over half a year etc. etc.).

Just to clarify, I'm not one of the Bioware bashers, but on the other hand I'm not a blind fanboy either(I'm happy for every patch we get, but I can't help thinking that some issues should/could have already been resolved months ago). While you can ignore many of those bugs without them detracting from your enjoyment too much(though that depends on each individual person's tolerance for  these things), as those aren't game breakers, you can't just claim you don't have problems in your game.

Seriously how many times are you going to say you have no problems. Do you like tooting your own horn or are you just Trolling. The Problem has been there with a lot of users on PC, Xbox Platforms since release. Good For you you have had zero problems. Thats not the case with all of us sadly. So if this thread does not releate to you having problems then why are you posting here at all ? I don't have a problem with you not having any problems but, I do have a problem with you posting over and over again that you don't on a thread about an upcomming patch to fix issues for people that have problems. That is called Trolling.

Bioware brought the negativity on themselves. I will not stick up for them with this game since its the ongoing major problems have been present since Nov 2009. Patches do get rolled out yes but, usually in a timely matter. All games have issues but, when you have a game sitting on a shelf that you paid good money for because it doesn’t work it kind of pisses you off. You would feel different if you had some of these issues. Not to mention when the game says works on your hardware weather that be the Xbox or  a PC well above the System Req

Bioware fix:



The steal issue

Healing bonuses issues

Approval issue from Awakening

Awakening Quest Sequence make it so we don't need to follow an order if not it will break the game or make some quest impossible to complete.

Custom item triggers, I do not wish to restart a new game each time to use my custom items.

You can believe me or not believe me all you want. Point is, its not the same for everyone. Nobody that has the issues can come out and simply say "I have the same bugs as everyone" when not everyone have the same bugs, or have bugs AT ALL. I've spent a lot of time playing DAO (1.03) and have had NO PROBLEMS. I haven't just 'not noticed them'. However, I've already been in contact with some mods over this already in the past, giving them all my system info. As for the bolded part of your post, yes, I can.

Sorry, no trolling here. I wouldn't have repeated myself so many times had there not been someone on here that simply didn't get it and kept attacking me for saying so. So, no, I was not trolling. I was just defending myself over a needless attack.

I've already said why I'm posting here, but I suppose some people chose not to listen, so I continued posting. The fact that I don't have these bugs, is relevant to the patch and adds some info to the discussion. What DOESN'T is attacking someone for giving that info, like so many have in the last day or so.

I'm not holding my pee waiting for the patch.

My modded version of DA works fine. Qwinn was good enough to release version 2.0 of his Fixpatch which at 94 MB fixed a lot of the dialogue scripting issues to do with Alistair and Leliana (actually heard some lines I'd never heard before).

I would doubt real hard that this would be the actual patch release announcment...maybe an update of where they stand with it but not much more..

I do
play the PC version, in fact and I've saved so many times that I've
actually had to delete some so I could continue saving. And I sell stuff
A LOT, so that's not it either.

Oh, and ANY info on it is
helpful. I've already submitted my rig info and all my game info (DLC,
mods, ect.) to help even further. What ISN'T helpful is attacking people
for saying they have no bugs.


Bioware:  "We're
releasing a patch covering a number of bugs.  We need more information
on what bugs are out there."

You:  "I have no bugs"

How is
that helping?

Regardless, you play on a PC.  I play on an XBox
360.  They know my specs because they are standard and unmodified.  I
can't mod the game.  They have everything they need from me.  Point is,
most of the bugs that need fixing are widespread on the console versions
of the game - the PC version has received a number of patches as well
as custom mods from other players.

So saying that you have a
bug-free experience on a bug-free platform, does little to help a bug
report thread.


So adding relevant information
isn't helping? But flaming the people that give the relevant info is?
Not hardly.



What your not understanding is you posting over and over Image IPB that you have no problems is just saying it's not broke don't fix it post. When the facts are tons of people are having problems. Yes not all of us but, a ton of us do. so by stating you have no problems is not really helping fix the game for people who do does it ? No I'm not attcaking you nor is anyone else your just taking it the wrong way and being way to defensive about it. So you can try to twist this post into whatever you want but, me and quiet a few of us see it as trolling.

Now Back On subject Image IPB I am hoping it does actually fix something this time. Esp the PC version I have.

I think you have trouble understanding what I mean...
As I mentioned, a good deal of the bugs are system-independant. That means EVERYONE has them, yes even you. I'm not talking about the crashes(sound-related or not) which some people have in high frequency and others(like you apparently) don't experience at all. No, I'm talking about stuff like +healing modifiers on items not working or dagger damage not being calculated correctly(as I made pretty clear in my post, but apparently you completely skipped over that).
Seriously, you can't just say "no I don't have these bugs", because everyone has those. No exception. None. Those have nothing to do with your rig and settings or anything else, they're screw-ups in the game's code. Please start up your supposedly bugless copy and use a heal skill without any +healing items and then use it again with a whole bunch of +healing items, then come back and tell me if the second time around you actually healed more(you won't by the way, since the +healing modifier simply doesn't work for anyone right now).

So yeah, by claiming you have no problems at all, when you just choose to ignore them/are ignorant of them, is less than helpful in a thread talking about patches.

Actually I think they do want people to play over and over considering the amount of different characters types you can make. As for the negativity, it's to be expected, almost eight months later this thread is finally made, there are literally hundreds of posts about bugs, how to reproduce them etc. people are upset because it took this long just to get a real response instead of the "we're looking into it" line that we got at dlc time.
I do agree that they do great work with the story in their games, it's nice to be immersed in the world of the game you're playing. As for just quitting, it's the fact that people like playing the game that makes the frustration boil over into these forums, many of us that are pissed off about the lack of support love the game itself, when it works. That is the problem though, due to some of the bugs not everyone can play the game without crashes etc. myself, I've lost over 240 hours and 7 characters from bugs, so I think that gives me the right to be a bit angry. So before you start talking down to people being negative you should really find out why they are being that way.
I really hope that this patch will fix a lot of the bugs, because I'd like to play this again. After hearing the same thing for eight months though, I am skeptical, though somewhat optomistic.
