Hi Everyone
 
We know that people are waiting on more patching to fix issues they are having with Dragon Age II. We have said previously that we are working on patching for all 4 platforms (PC, Mac, Xbox 360 and Playstation 3), but we have not yet given any detail about what this patch will contain nor when it will be available. We greatly appreciate your patience as we work to fix issues with Dragon Age II and ensure that these fixes do not introduce new issues to the game. To help keep you updated on the status of the next patch (the first patch for PC and Mac Dragon Age II can be found HERE) we wanted to provide you with a more detailed message on the next Dragon Age II patch.
 
BioWare has prepared a patch for PC, Mac, Xbox 360 and Playstation 3. We are currently testing the patch and are submitting it for certification with EA, Microsoft and Sony. Certification is where testing teams outside of BioWare confirm the fixes we make and ensure that no new issues are introduced. We continue to test the patch during the certification process to ensure quality. Once the patch has passed certification, it is then released to the public. We do not have a more exact ETA of when it will be available to you, but when we do know when it is available, we will let everyone know.
 
We cannot reveal to you the exact contents of the patch until it passes certification. We can say that there are more than 100 fixes including gameplay, quest and platform specific issues. We can also say that the implementation of auto-attack on both Xbox 360 and PS3 is included. When we can reveal the patch notes, we will let everyone know.
 
BioWare is dedicated to continuing to support Dragon Age II. We thank our community members who have helped our team fix issues by providing details and reports on the problems they are having. We appreciate your patience and your support.

100 fixes sounds similar to the number of bugs I encountered while playing... ho ho.

Thanks for the update - still, I'm rather disappointed that there is still no ETA.

How long does certification tend to take?

It can take as little as a few day up to several weeks for a patch to be certified.

I'm very happy to hear about the patch. However, i really wish bioware would acknowledge the frustration we loyal gamers have had to deal with as well as our frustration that this patch was needed in the first place. When a person purchases something, they expect it to be free of errors. The whole thing is a shame really as the Dragon Age games are my favorite games.

With that said, I truly can not wait for the patch so I can replay this awesome game a second time--The way it was meant to be played.

Can we have high resolution textures aswell? Or at least higher than currently, 'cause they can be downright ugly...

Huzzah! Thanks for the update. I am guessing with so many fixes this may take a while to certify, but it will be well worth it to (hopefully) have Hawke playable at normal speed again.

100 fixes sounds like a mighty impressive number. I've held off on playing the game until the patch hits, so hopefully it won't be much longer.

**some** of the bugs in the game take thousands of players to find after retail and can easily be missed by the 20 or so employed Bioware games testers - especially in a complex game like this with thousands of combinations of dialogue, party and gear choices.

I think what's more impressive is that there were over a 100 things that needed fixing...

 Awesome! 100 fixes and auto-attack? Nicely done. Can't wait!

Also, as one of those who had to deal with the annoying bugs in this game, I for one do not require any pony or candy on top. I'll just take the patch, thanks.

A patch is very welcome, and I'm glad to hear it is at this stage, but I'm still quite frustrated that I bought a game for full retail price, and got a game breaking bug less than a week in. Its now three weeks from release date and my "full retail" game is sitting unplayable as the price drops and drops at retailers. I feel like some sort of refund or credit is deserved.

I agree, though I'm sure we won't see that happening.  I haven't even seen so much as an admittance that  the players got screwed.  At this point, I'll even make due with that and being told that such a screw-up would never happen again.

implementation of auto-attack
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I hope that is optional, Personally its not a feature I like having in console titles.
