The PS3 version is out today? I thought that the PSN updated Thursday evenings on the west coast.



Did you guys force them to update early?

Okay Bioware i love everything about the demo except some of the cooldowns on a few of the powers. In the first game combat was slower and the cooldown for heal was 5sec. In DA2 the combat is a lot faster which means you take damage faster, but the cooldown for heal is now 60 seconds?!



This is just like ME1 where you would use a power and then walk to the next engagement only to find out that your powers are still cooling down.



Again I love this game, but if the cooldowns could go down I bit I'd be even more happy.

Maybe they're a little long, but seriously.. the potion cooldowns were one of the biggest reasons DAO was so incredibly easy.  You could just manufacture practically unlimited numbers of potions and then gulp them down as often as you needed to.

I'm sorry if this been brought up already but I'm at work and don't have the time to read all 30 pages.



Is anyone else a little peeved that the Demo is free on the pc and ps3 but you have to pay for it on xbox. I don't have a gold account and probably never will since I don't play online. I just think it is a bit greedy on ms part.

porbably been talked to death about already:

¨Pros: Combat is more fast paced

Mored details on blood,armor,faces,spells etc

Voiced character

The speechwheel,i want action not reading pages of text,i read a book for that.



Cons: I play on Very High and still groundtextures and area textures look like ****.This is the biggest letdown in my eyes.We are 2011,not 2000 anymore.



I was so happy with the announcement of DA2,and thought about it as instabuy.Not anymore,i'm gonna wait for the modding community to do the things Bioware neglected.

Silver members get it in about a week. Not BioWare's fault, it's Microsoft's decision.

Props for the 10min PC download. Gotta love university internet.



Loving the visual style (other than the muddy red rocks), but it crashed on me during the Arrival at Kirkwall cutscenes twice. Should I cancel my preorder, or is this a demo-specific issue?

Yeah the potions were overpowered in origins. Gotta give that one to you.

Will not be buying this dumbed down hack and slash console-pandering anime-wannabe. Two thumbs down from someone who thought DAO was the best game made since BG2.


Did you play through it, or should we simply admire your posturing?

The servers are apparently STILL overwhelmed. Tied downloading earlier before work and it kept breaking. Now my 100 megabit connection in throttled down to 21kb/s after starting out at 10mb/s. Estimated 16 hours to go (started out estimating 3 minutes)...

I am very dissapointed with the demo and Bioware. Bioware sold themselves to EA, and I think it has been a critical mistake (not so long ago, EA bought, exploited and closed mythical studies as Westwood, Origin and Bullfrog, creators of anthology games...). I think EA will exploit Bioware as they have done before, and when they have finished, they will throw Bioware away. I suppose a lot of new people from EA has entered Bioware to finish all the games they want to present this year (do you really believe Bioware is able to launch Dragon Age 2, Mass Effect 3 and the mmorpg Star Wars: The Old Republic in the same year?...) and the result will be poor games in order to earn quick money....



Too bad...



Well, we still have Betheda.



Bye

I've tried downloading the PC demo twice now, and no matter what I do it keeps crashing right after the "fake" character creation! I can't get to the following gameplay, I can't complete the demo and get the in-game item... Please help! :(

Thank you for providing a demo BioWare. I won't be ordering the game based on the demo's content, I think it is a step backwards from DA:O. Not trying to troll, just providing feedback.
