Wow, this thread just totally killed my hype. I've been waiting hours for the UPS truck to drop off my copy and was completely in overhype mode. Seriously Bioware? Dragon age II has seriously shook my faith in a company I considered among the heavens. All it takes is one game to kill a company's reputation, especially in the "casual" or "shooter crowd" that Bioware tried so hard to get.


Try reading through the thread again. It seems most of the concern is about the readme containing a bug that may or may not happen. I just checked with friends that picked up the game, nobody is experiencing any problems.

Furthermore, bugs happen people.

There were problems before 1.1 where your final choice with morrigan didn't result in an autosave.

Also I noticed while looking for my saves they were not in order. One of my previous saves were before my final save. After you've made your choice (using 1.1) it should auto save. The auto save is what you want loaded.


Ah yes, I took the first save without second thoughts, I'll look for that particular autosave, Thank You !

Uhm ... what?

According to the poll, the story-breaking glitch is happing TO MOST PEOPLE.

Now I can't claim it's a large poll, or that it's perfectly representative - but this appears to be a REAL issue that's happening to ALOT of people.

If anything we need to stop asking questions that doesn't solve the problem and give hints to BioWare on what may and may not be the problem. Constantly asking "did they even test this" or asking if we're "beta testing" will get us nowhere. Our best course of action is to find a solution by submitting info, with proof on previous saves while adding what isn't coming up in game properly.



I can give you a hint on what the problem is, and its got to do with
pulling heads out of places the sun doesn't shine.  Quite frankly I've
got no inclination to help Bioware figure out where their screw up is,
nor should I have to.  They aren't paying me to QA their game, and this
isn't a beta test.  Hell, we don't even know if they -want- our help,
because it's just too damn hard to even say 'Hey this is something we
are working on.'

That pole is so vague it isn't even funny. Corruption of previous saves isn't even in the readme, so it's new or the term corrupted is being used very very loosly. Also, I'd imagine most people on the forums at this point are experiencing problems or waiting for the game, those that aren't having these problems are still playing. Basically, I don't think a poll works for something like this. It's best to make a thread, where you provide a photo of your previous choices and add where the game screwed up and how far into the game you are if it hasn't.

^ All that matters, you can thank the people that help provide information for a fix later. I'm having zero problems and trying to help find a solution, I may run into one later and I would be more then happy to contribute so this problem is worked out. I can put the game down for a few hours, it'll be waiting for me when I'm done.

Kind of funny. The first thing I did was make a thread. People said it was a waste, and instead what I should do is make a poll.

I don't think it's so vague though that people are selecting the "Ahg, no!" option when nothing is wrong whatsoever.

I already said that the poll not be representative - but as far as "it may or may not have happened" (to anyone) - I think the poll at least provides context to say that it is a real bug,.

I already said that the poll not be representative - but your earlier claim that it was not happening to anyone seems to run contrary to even the mildest, contextualized implication of the poll.


You had it right the first time. A poll isn't going to do much and only provides a number on how many aren't and are having problems. Very little info based on that. And you can't say it's a lot of people. Of course the people having problems are going to outweight those that arent', most people that aren't having problems are enjoying the game and have no reason to report that specific problem.

I never claimed it wasn't happening to anyone. People are getting discouraged from 30 something people who have ran into a problem. My point was that poll in no way represents your chances of running into this bug. It's obviously there, but isn't garenteed to happen to you.

Don't even go there lad... As bugs go of which is affecting alot of people this is a very, very bad one that makes all the hours you put into an ending to DAO you want to import completley useless. On top of that if it is true that effects DA2 acts aswell then it's even bigger problem. Just because you got lucky (so far) does not mean you should tell people oh well bugs happen like it's no big deal. It is not about a readme file at all, its about people experiencing it themselves on their playthroughs.

Sure I can - it depends on how many people you consider "alot".

A dozen?

A hundred?

A thousand?

it's enough to concern me.

You're right - that part of the post I edited before you even posted this reply.

Ok.

Out of curiosity, how did your problem start? what happened exactly? how far were you?  what were your previous choices?

Btw most of this thread consists of people being upset about OTHERS experiencing the problem or they're unsatisified with the direction this game took.

I'll agree that when the number starts to close in on a thousand you should be a bit concerned. And yes, I understand that people are concerned about starting a game and not having their DA:O save choices show up properly. All I'm saying is your first idea would have been a better choice in narrowing down the problem.

But right now, I refuse to take that poll seriously, I'm sure the majority of the people that voted that they are having problems are indeed experiencing them, but there is no way of telling if it represents the majority or minority. So there is no reason to be that concerned about it at the moment.

Edit: Anybody else having problems with the forums? Posts are constantly disappearing and reappearing.

If it even happens once it's a concern if your that person it happens too not 1000 to suit your own twisted ideal of what is and is not acceptable to you.

It doesn't make the slightest difference if you refuse to take the poll seriously, it isn't happening to you (yet) and you haven't complete the game neither has your friends so at some point you might still get it. The only issue that poll imho could be improved is not asking "those who got so far into it", but instead those who got to the end else leaving it up to those people to decide whether far enough is 5 minutes into game or 5 hours is too vague.

It makes no difference if its the minority or majority, even if only half a dozen people had the issue it needs to be fixed and you making light of it with -s**t happens, deal with it- sort of comment is insulting. Your not here to help your here to troll because all you seem to do is complain about those who are worried about the bug/glitch problem happening to them or those who do have it. You argue with them over how concerned they should be and whether it's 'valid' in your opinion to list in a poll who does and doesn't have the problem.

Really? Time for you to stop sipping on that rage fuel for a bit. As I said I can understand concern, of course I understand concern for the people who ARE experiencing the problems. But for those who haven't experienced the problem or those that haven't even tried the full game, you shouldn't be to concerned just yet. And to think this all started by me asking people to refrain from criticism (in this thread) and add info so we can narrow down the problem.

I said that I may be getting lucky, I said that having info from those that are having problems would be great, and because I might just run into the problem, I even provided my information on save data (don't think you have).  I'm pretty much done with you, you silly irrational person.

I imported from Witch Hunt, and its history summary was correct for me. Im not very far into the game yet, so i really haven't got to see it in practical use. Besides a mention of the new King, which was accurate to my save.

 Sigh... I guess I'll give the game a roll:(.

Just wondering.. when does the first reference to an Origins decision/outcome take place and what decision is referenced?

If anybody who has played could answer this, it would be great. 

Then, I'll know what to watch for, and when to watch for it.

Ok guys, 14 pages. Bioware isn't helping us, but I think we should probably do a better job at helping each other.

14 pages and I still don't know at least a few spots in the game where one could expect the save to start messing flags up.

Also, how exactly do I check the plot summary after I already started the game? Command Console? How?

I'll speak for myself and say that I had no problems up until now, I still haven't done the DR Expedition but the only mentions of past events have been ok (Hero of Ferelden killing the ArchDemon, and new king).

One thing that I should mention is that I have the exact same DAO plot summary as Greed0104.

If you have the same one I have a question, and anybody else that got this with an import feel free to answer. At the begining, did flemeth act surprised about King Cailans death? She mentions him, and you respond with he is dead, didn't seem right since it was mentioned in the cinematic. This happens during the fall of lothering , the warden and allies have already left lothering by the time this happens, meaning flemeth is already very aware of the kings death.

The poll will probably never be accurate about how big the % of players getting the bug is because most of the people who doesn't get the bug will never vote. But it shows that many people are having this problem, and even if its not a big % of the players it is still alot of people and it should be fixed as soon as possible.

I have had to log in every 5 minutes or so, so yes think there is something wrong with the forum.

Yes forums are broken atm I think it's same for everyone including me. Tbh if going to start comparing where in the game you get changes noticed make another thread because this one will all of a sudden become a spoiler thread. DO NOT post spoilers in here where people are honestly coming to seek help and nothing in title gives away the fact people posting things that happen within the game.
