OMG I have to press buttons! Game must be crap!!!

Yeah, lets not to pass this one of as just fans over reacting. I cant stand trolls who **** and complain about minor things either, but this is NOT MINOR. This is basically taking the fundamental gameplay that defines Dragon Age, and devolving it into a mechanic made for simpletons. Console owners will never be able to play on Nightmare mode with any kind of long term success without auto-attack.

I don't know if that is worse, or the whole being fobbed off until the game went retail. Probably being lied to on balance. A games just a game, but being lied to like that is treating your customers as idiots.

I wonder why OXM did not mention this in their reviews?

You wonder why the OFFICIAL XBOX magazine wouldn't mention this missing feature from a review of one of the games they expect to be the biggest sellers of the year on the system they are the OFFICAL magazine for?

No dude... It's more like "OMG a feature they prominently said would be in the game isn't, and they misled everyone for a month"... 

Not really, the game isn't even out yet, so it could very well be in the final version. Besides, does it need it? DA:O for consoles felt way too slow, so if I get to press a few more buttons, then that's fine by me. But still, maybe they didn't lie, maybe they were only talking about the PC version. I do remember them saying that the PC version would have auto-attack.

EDIT: I'll say this after reading page 2. GAME PATCH.

That is all.

Who cares? It really isn't that big of a deal.

I think it is, and even if it isn't to you, more options are always better.

Wait...what?

Please explain to me how the feature can be in the final version, the one already shipped to stores...

Okay, you edited.  I was going to point you to the post in this actual thread.
 
Patch - someday . . . after certification - if it's not too large.

[Mick301981]

Just wondering, how much more painful do you think hard mode will be without AA. That's the setting I wanted to start with. Btw all my Origins playthroughs were Normal.

If anybody wants to chime in, please do.

Probably not unless you pass this around all the game sites and get some sort of mass movement going.

Shouldn't take too long to get a patch out there. If enough people want it, then they'll probably make it. You the community just need to nag at them a lot more. Make sure they know your concerns.

I'm not exactly worried about it, but I understand the concerns...

Depends on your class, hurts some more than others. Key thing is while you are banging away at X you can't really be focusing on much else especially as a melee class. Autoattack takes the pressure off and allows you to observe and still contribute to the battle.

[Bomberman65]

So do you think Bioware will release a patch actually making a toggle in the options menu to add in auto-attack?
That seems very hard when the game has already been released.
Im in New Zealand so I dont have my copy yet.

Even if they made the attack button register when you held it down that would be a big improvement over mashing and thats very easy to do.

[Mick301981]

Thanks for the input, my class will by Rogue archer btw. Probably still going to try hardmode and see how it goes though

[EKeefe3]

i dont mind the button mashing .. but with auto attack its easier to focus on the rest of the battle. So Ill be using that.

Oh no!

Boy, I can just picture the swearing/throwing things/hiding under desks/alcoholism this discovery must have engendered.

It's a lie... Stop saying it isn't when it clearly is.

Who exactly do you think is claiming that BioWare didn't lie?

All I'm saying that that their silence doesn't constitute a lie.

They have stated that auto-attack will be an option available to console gamers in the options menu of DA2, this turned out to not be true which makes it a lie regardless of intentions good or bad or mistakes. One thing was said but the opposite happened aka a lie.

This is not a widely held opinion on what constitutes a lie.  It does happen to be my opinion, but it's quite an unpopular opinion.  People usually require an intent to deceive somewhere in there.

That was my first thought, as well.

In the moments after this was discovered, there were probably several people who were sure they were going to get fired.

That's never a pleasant feeling.

[Loon PL]

Are we supposed to believe the auto-attack file was mistakenly omitted in case of both Xbox 360 and PS3 builds of the game that were sent to manufacturing?
That would be quite a coincidence

It doesn't really matter what we believe. The fact is that we will never know for sure.

Let's focus on what has actually happened.

[Dragoonlordz]

I'll make my point very simply, they said a auto attack feature will be in the game on the consoles so I want that feature in the game on the consoles.

I don't care if they lied or made mistakes or whatever people argue about atm it's not what concerns me.

I like that feature in DA:O and want them to keep their word and put it in DA2.

Plain and simple, please resolve it asap with regard to a patch very soon.

OK: Here is the story.

Auto-attack option for consoles was added in to the games late in the development cycle after the initial certification build was sent. The auto-attack functionality was sent to be added to the game for testing and approval. This was why staff said it was in game.

Due to an error during mastering, the auto-attack file was omitted during manufacture.

We apologize for this. It was meant to be in game, but it is not currently in the console versions. We are working on how best to distribute this to console users. When we have information, we will let everyone know.

thanks for the info Chris:)

This should be stickied so it can't be forgotten about.
