I actually don't have that big of a problem with it. I like how much more involved I was in the combat compared to DAO and how its a lot more frantic.

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.

Hopefully it gets fixed soon.

ALL GLORY TO THE PC!

[djackson75]

So they knew this wasn't going to be in the game for at least a month... Yet didn't mention it until less than 12 hours before the game's release... Even after KNOWING it's been a hot-button issue..

Nice.

[Greyen]

having played about 10 hours of the game so far i can tell you all its fantastic, and the "button mashing" isnt any kind of problem for me personally, the story so far is great, and the quests are alot of fun, everyone will be very pleased with this game i think

[DarkWulfy]

Hmm that's a bit disingenuous, no?

Some people can swallow whole bricks. Wow.

Thanks for clearing this up.
But dear god, PLEASE patch it ASAP, or people will sue you for getting Arthritis and RSI syndrome...

Wow.

I can imagine the panic around BioWare when you realised what had happened.

While this doesn't affect me, I appreciate how open you're being about it.

[ImmortalArbiter]

Please get the patch out quickly!

I would have appreciated it if they were open about it once they knew it had happened. Holding out that info until less than 12 hours of the game's release....unscrupulous.

I swallowed the inventory lack in ME2, and for me it was harder to swallow. Anyway, I hoe they'll implement it soon.

Not necessarily.  The manufacturing error might have happened with no direct involvement from BioWare at all, and they might not have been aware of it until they actually got manufactured copies.  The leaked copies may have been from the certification build, which they knew didn't have auto-attack, so that didn't concern them.

And they probably spent a day working on the wording of that little announcement.  That's a big one.

Makes you wonder what other little surprises are in store we don't know about. Though I do appreciate they atleast amit the problem and will do something to fix it as opposed to for example some things that never get fixed like Jowans Quest in DA:O (still waiting for them to fix that).

This is bollocks. No offence Bioware, but this should have been sorted out. I don't have access to the internet with my Xbox (mobile broadband connection on my laptop), so what am I supposed to do? I won't be able to download a patch without going to extreme lengths, like lugging my hard drive to a friend's house.

Poor show, Bioware. When I spend forty pounds on a game, it should be finished without a hugely important feature missing. I don't want to grind my thumb to dust smacking the "A" button, that's why I don't play hack n' slash games.

I'll still get Dragon Age 2, and I still love you, but... well, I'm a little annoyed at this turnabout.

[bbnocrossing]

well thats good to know but if its not up as a patch tonight into tomorrow that would be dissapointing to a lot of people.

Hope its in tonight for those getting the game at midnight.

[Clammo]

Extremely disingenuous, lying by omission. As soon as they found out they should have informed people - not once the game is in people's hands. People had been asking about this feature for a long time so it's not like they didn't know it was contentious.

So you really think that a game that went gold over three weeks ago didn't have a retail copy anywhere in Bioware's offices that somebody cracked open and put in a console?

I'm not trying to be a jerk, but you're trying to give an excuse to the unexcuseable.

There is no "quickly." Well, maybe for PS3 users, that environment is more open. For 360, nothing happens without MS certification. That is not a quick process.

This is disappointing for everyone all around. Wow.

Since I can't expect a patch soon, this all but confirms I'll play archer or mage. I didn't mind the lack of auto-attack as much with those two.

[Purple People Eater]

Yeah I mean, the only reason hitting the A button diddnt bother me in the demo is because I knew I wouldnt have to in the full game. Now come to find out, I have no choice. I hope everyone at Bioware is working frantically to get this sorted out, because it is a big deal.

[cast_]

Wow :X poor console users. Gonna break your A buttons!
