It seems that I was wrong, no signs of an increase. In Europe there is only stragglers left. :-)

Question, if Bioware is concerned with accuracy of downloads, why don't they just see how many accounts have qualified for the Razor since anyone who has thusly qualified has obviously beaten the demo?

The counter have started to slow down? I fear there are a chance that the counter not will reach 1 mil before march 1.

It may be slowing down, but usually there's a spike in the last day or few hours, so slim as it may be, we aren't down for the count just yet!

would have helped as well if the download wasn't so slow. My xbox download was super speedy. The pc one took ages

I have a good idea! In case we DO miss the deadline, they should put these 2 tomes up with the Dr. Pepper promotion, these are the perfect items for that!


I'm confused.  Are you saying there is an already existing Dr. Pepper promotion for Dragon Age II these items should be added to, or are you saying they should make one to release these items as an alternative (in case the 1,000,000 mark isn't reached) like was done with Mass Effect 2 for the Recon Hood, Umbra Visor, etc?

Sadly, if it continues at this rate, we'll end with just over 905,000 downloads.

Well, I'm one of those people who is VERY interested in all things Dragon Age but haven't had the chance to download it or play it yet (working 6 days a week and commuting two hours per day makes me want to be lazy when I'm home). I'll be downloading it tomorrow (even if it means signing up for a Gold Xbox Live account), so at least thats +1.



Hopefully there are another 175,000 people like me in the world...

The way I see it there will most likely be a huge surge in downloads on Tuesday of those people with silver accounts. March 1st is the deadline but that also makes it the last day to add downloads to the counter. Most  people, and by most I mean almost everyone, talks like the counter will be taken down the morning of March 1st, but in all likelyhood it won't be over until 11:59 on March 1st. So even if by Monday we are close but not there yet the silver surge on Tuesday could seal the deal.Posted Image

They should end it by that time I think, otherwise lots of people won't even of had a week to download it, and Silver members that don't/can't create another Gold account will have absolutely no chance at downloading it. I don't think it would be fair otherwise.

It says on the website though "before March 1st", sooo... yeah :(

Remember, there's going to be a spike in silver accounts DL'ing on the first seeing as how the 1st is the "deadline" meaning, as someone else pointed out before, we have until 11:59pm SBT (Thats Standard BioWare Time) March 1st to reach the appointed goal.

Even if we dont reach it, I can almost guarantee you that they'll let us "Buy" the items once the game releases for X amount of points lol

Ehi ehi ehi!

The counter is going really faster than a few minutes ago! Hope it is not because of spamming again...

And to keep it fair and as accurate as we can, daily we are manually revising the counter numbers to include updates from other download reports we get, such as console numbers and external partner PC sites.  :police:

F.



Key information here. This means that the counter does not update from all sources in realtime. In fact, Fernando seems to imply here that the only source that does update the counter in realtime are direct downloads from Bioware. So the rate at which it increases is inaccurate. I'd say the rate of increase is a minimum, but, that wouldn't account for people spamming the counter. It does seem like the spamming has eased off now though.

As an alternative, wasn't any DA2 promotions last time I checked.
