It seems this is being caused, primarily, by Isabela's Thumbs Up buff (max friendship). If you're seeing this and don't have Isabela's friendship (and by dont i mean never had) then please post and let me know. Otherwise, we're aware and looking in to it.


i did notice at the start of act III (where i believe the speed was nearly the same as a new character) I had isabela's buff but she wasn't in my party at the time when i was leveling up my character.  And I think i noticed a change in speed while doing her friendship quest, maybe something to do with swapping her in and out of party?

I also had Isabela's buff show up on Hawke's abilities without her present.

I'd also like to throw my hat into this ring, if only to emphasize it's pervasiveness and the urgency by which it needs to be fixed.

Edit: After enduring this bug for another hour or two, I'd also like to note my irritation.
Surely SOMEBODY had to notice this during playtesting? It's not like it's a difficult bug to replicate, much less a difficult bug to fix.

I'd hate to chalk this up to some stupendous oversight or outright incompetance, but honestly I'm left little choice. I don't want to be one of "those people" who disavows the company forever and swears vengeance on all responsible programmers, but really, this is just negligence.

Do try to forgive my outburst. I probably sound angrier than I am. It's just frustrating, is all.

My once unstoppable rogue now fights at DA:O speeds - and it's painful. It's gotten progressively worse over Act 2.

Please fix this ASAP. I can't continue to play the game as is.

Someone in the PC thread on this topic mentioned that they hadn't been getting injuries on Hawke when dying since the bug started. I have also noticed this on my play through, though I'm not sure if the two are actually related, since I've only seen one other post related to it.

I have been playing with the bug since roughly the beginning of Act 3 (which seems to be standard), although I might have noticed a little slow down in the fight at the end of Act 2.

It has now gotten to the point where my attack speed must be at -100%. I've been experimenting a little with earlier saves where my character could still actually attack, and I found that simply swapping Isabella in and out of the party doesn't affect the speed any, or at least not immediately upon doing so, so it seems like there's a little more going on.

A few things about my playthrough:
I am playing a two-hand weapon wielding warrior, have respecced him several times.  The only times I ever swap Isabella into my party are for her specific missions, to level her up, or to give her new equipment.
I am playing on hard difficulty, though due to the widespread nature of the bug, I doubt that matters much.
I do save compulsively (up to around save number 1230), and there are times where I reload various save files multiple times and even times where I will save a game and then reload that save immediately.

One other thing I have noticed (that I think has been mentioned before) is that I do often see Isabella's friendship buff in my abilities list even when she's not in my party, but sometimes it's not.

Hope some of this helps in finding a solution

PLEASE FIX THIS. It's making my Mage Hawke completely unplayable! I wasn't able to duel the Arishok because my Hawke couldn't freaking move!

My Hawke has slowed down as well..but its more specific in that she's only stabbing and not doing the usual triple attack animation nor will she leap towards her foe (Im playing as a warrior). Aveline's doing this as well..is this the same bug or have I discovered a new one?

Its incredibly fustrating and is ruining the game for me since I can't duel the Arishok.

I'm wondering if it has something to do with respeccing while the Isabela buff is active?

I noticed that this were happening to me about half way through act 2. Only the main character is affected, and only during combat. I can't yet tell if it is getting progressively slower, but it is already pretty bad. In my case, reloading a previous save from before the bug occoured does not help; my character is still slowed down in older saves.

I hope this can be resolved quickly as it pretty much makes the game unplayable.

Edit: Nevermind what I wrote about loading older saves not helping, having loaded an even older save, my Hawke is moving at normal speeds again... for now at least.

Yeah my rogue has no essentially reached the point of unplayable. This bug is really kind of awful, and essentially ruining what has been an otherwise great game for me. I guess I'll be setting this aside until I hear of an easy fix or a patch being released, but honestly this one is just ridiculous.

There is a good thread in the PC help forum (wish I could edit my save games to fix this bug like they can - ARGH) - and it appears several things can cause this bug:  Isabella friendship, Sebastian friendship and armor set buffs are noted.  Essentially, it appears that they are subtracting the buff from your total when the are removed but never added to your total when there.  

If I understand correctly - this is how it plays out: 
  • Add Isabella (as friend) to your party - but your Hawk's stats dont actually get friendship buff
  • Remove Isabella (friend) from party - your permanent stats are reduced by the expected Isabella buff removal.
  • rinse and repeat until your character is unplayable.

How long will this take to fix? I really don't want to have to put my game on hold. I just started Act III -_-

I'm in the same boat as you. I wish they'd fix this quickly, although I'm entirely sure they're doing their best.

Yeah.

I guess I can just put the rest of the game on casual and have my party deal out the damage, but that's just...no fun at all :(

I suppose I can go through all my old saves to see if any aren't affected. I guess replaying 5 or 6 hours of the game isn't so bad.

By the way I have Isabella at friend, but I haven't used her in my party at all in act 2.  That said I've used Sebastian so that's probably what's causing it.

Same issue for me. It's got worse to the point of unplayable, and has killed my game enjoyment dead. Also, please sticky this topic, as xbox 360 players will find it very hard to find as is. It's been acknowledged as a known issue and needs to be immediately visible to anyone looking for info.

This really needs to be fixed. ASAP.

Thanks for the info - looks like I'll have to put my rogue playthrough on hold and start a warrior (and figure out how to get Isabella to rival status). Very, VERY frustrating

This is happening to me too and I DO have Isabella as a friend. I actually didn't notice until mid Act 3, but I didn't pay it much heed, but once I arrived at the last quest and its fights it became waaaay to prominent like I'm playing an entire game in slow mode. Just wanted to let you guys know the circumstances around how it is occurring for me. I can't imagine it would be easy to fix a bug like this, that is cross platform with an simple update so quick after its release so, take your time on it, I have the patience lol

Decided to shelve the game until further notice. It's simply unplayable under these conditions.

Please, get that patch out ASAP.

Yeah I'm shelving the game too, at the moment it's just not worth dealing with this hassle until it's fixed especially since all of my act 2 saves seem to be affected.. It's really a shame because I was really enjoying the game until this happened. Anyway please sticky this thread and fix this bug asap.

I have an alternate theory to the problem. It may have to do with the number of game saves. My first playthrough, as a mage, I was noticing a slowdown early in Act 2, where with the autosaves and all, I was already up to save 400+.

I am now in my second playthrough, this time as a warrior, and at the start of act two, I have not noticed any significant drop in speed (and yes, Isabella is in my party full time, just like in the first playthrough), but this time I disabled auto-save from the beginning and am currently on save 32. It could definitely be coincidence. I have no idea how the number of saves could impact gameplay. It's just an idea, but I thought it might be worth looking into.

That said, I also have noticed that Isabella's friend buff is constantly showing in my abilities menu, even on occasions when she is not in my party.

Well if she's in your party most of the time I think the bug isn't as much of a problem. I think someone earlier said that whenever you remove her from your party the +% you were supposed to get to attack speed is actually subtracted (If you have friendship buff). So if you're not removing her from your party that often, and you just earned her friendship, the bug isn't as apparent as it will be later on.

So what I'm wondering is if you return home - does that count as removing Isabella from your party? I wish I could ask the folks on the PC tech help board (who are checking with the mod tools) but we can't post there without a PC registration.

THIS ISSUE STILL NEEDS TO BE STICKIED

It happened to me when I had Merrill, Fenris, and Sebastian.
