Please try to keep every civil, and if you list your issue or find you have the same ones as me, help out the Devs by listing your specifications, drivers, and the like; makes things easier. Anyways, here I go.
(1) Audio Popping - After installing 1.04 I noticed that my audio, for the most part only in cut scenes (dialogue), has been cutting out and sometimes popping. The last syllable of the last word in a sentence will cut out. I recall people having similar issues with Mass Effect 2. Whether or not the problems are being caused by similar issues however I do not know.
On the same theme of audio issues, it seems ambient sounds and music are now acting wonky. From what I can tell, some sounds are no longer being properly directed into the correct channels for a 5.1 set up. This is only a guess however, but that is what it sounds like.
The above audio issues do not happen to often, but it is quite glaring when they do. I did not experience either of these issues before 1.04.
Originally I was running unoffcial drivers for my sound card. In an effort to fix the issues in DA:O I updated to the latest, official driver release. There was no difference.
(2) Memory Leak & Load Times - For the most part I had quick load times prior to 1.04. After installing the patch however I now find myself suffering from longer load times, especially after playing for a few hours. The worst being when moving around in Denerim, especially transitioning from the Gnawed Noble into the Market. Prior to
installing 1.04 I could play for a long period of time, or leave the game running, without noticing a drastic increase in load times, FPS drops, or stuttering. Now I find myself needing to reboot the game every couple of hours.
I run on overclocked settings for both my CPU and my GPUs. I have tried returning them to stock values, but that just makes matters worse.
(3) DLC Authorization - I have seen this mentioned a few times now. When loading up the game, I find myself waiting over two minutes for the servers to realize that I am logged in and authorize my content. Prior to installing 1.04 authorization was instantaneous and I could load or start a new game without issue. I'm guessing it may just be the servers being overloaded, but you never know.
Some people aren't able to authorize at all now, which is a far more serious problem than the delay I am experiencing, mind you.
