At least BioWare isn't making you pay weekly? Guild Wars 2 looks like it's shaping up to be a good competitor, and there's no monthly fee.


That's like saying: "At least my husband didn't knock out all my frontal teeth when he broke his baseball bat over my face". - UGH! Sorry I realize that example was too crude... UGH, revolting. Sorry...

EA support said it will be fixed today! I asked twice and the answer persisted. Let's see.
If they don't keep their promise, I will ask directly for a $20 coupon.

Seriously?! Oh man, I hope that's true! EEEEEEEEEEE I'm so excited now!


They're just placating the masses w/ what we want to hear. It will probably be down indeffinitely.

I have some puppies here.  Wanna kick them too? *sniff*

It's annoying because I believe many of you are like me - we have little time to play but on the weekend. I just got DA: O and 3 DLCs and now I am twiddling my fingers in Lothering because I can't accept the Soldier's Peak quest. Blizzard seemed to do a much better job dealing with servers in the 3+ years I played WoW. I got tired of dealing with trash-talking pre-teens, so I asked the dude at the game store for a cool fantasy non-MMO and he sells me this game that doesn't work very often.  Maybe I should go Lava Burst some kids in Wintergrasp...

No, let's hug your puppies! They'll bring them back! They'll bring them back in the next 10 mintues!

yeah, GW 2 might be interesting... they will have needed to have made vast improvments over the first game though. And I played the Warhammer beta and... didn't like it, was poopy. Currently I'm just excited about Mass Effect 3 and Star Wars the Old Republic. Has anyone played a warrior in DA2? My first playthrough I was a mage - in DA:O I played a warrior, in the Demo they didnt seem too fun though =/

I quit WoW a loooooong time ago.  Right after Burning Crusade, I think.  Anyway, I was just thinking that talking to DA obsessed people is much more fun than talking with WoW obsessed people when the servers go down.  We're a bunch of fun lovin' geeks, they're a bunch of whiners on those boards with a sprinkling of sanity thrown in.

Hey - I didn't realize I could add spaces to the profile name! I wish I could change it... to... Inedible Cookie (otherwise it would be cannibalism)

On Topic: Come back already servers!

Yeah, this is my 3d time quitting. Xpac was fun for a month or two... though playing a toon I hated did not help rofl. I hate being a sucker for Guild needs.

Yes, we are high brow geeks with proper grammar, and a sense of humor!

On Topic: Hurry up EA/Bioware

Out of Topic: I loved my characters! But repeating the 5-man dungeons and a raid a week got old, so I quit right before Cataclysm. Adaenis the elven Healadin (Level 80) was my main! She was pumped... anyways, back to topic! - So, any news? Has anyone checked?

Just did... and for a moment my eyes glistened with hope. But no, still not working.

One way to think about it is to make yourself think you're 6 and it's Christmas time: All you have to do is go to bed, and wake up the next day with the gift of a funcional game for which you paid for. - And of course most of us will have to go to work, and then just wait to get back home to maybe play 1 or 2 hours, but hey, something's something.

Yeah, I just installed on a second computer (intending to start a new game) in steam and none of my files are "authorized".

I'm suddenly feeling sick.  Weird how that happens, isn't it? Of course, I do consulting from home and so it's not like being sick would be an excuse to not work yet play DA.  I need to think of one!  Quick!

And I harldy recognize ya!  maybe I should change my avatar.

Not working for me either. 50 bucks says they aren't even working on it; it's the weekend, everyone went home an hour before it crashed Friday, and it'll be fixed after an hour or two when everyone comes back Monday. Or they left the new guy to fix it, but he doesn't know how.

Call them and insist you had a power outage, which caused your clock to reset. Because of this you fed your Mogwai after midnight, then you can hold a brief silence and proceed with, "... and as you are probably guessing the predicament I find myself in - Yes sir/m'am, Gremlins".

Always works.

Nooo! But, but... that beard looks fuzzy! - Also, one of the reasons I want the servers to get back is so that I can make my custom avatar.

I could just picture it now.... Calling them up and asking, "So, how many people have called in to complain about the dragon age origins and mass effect 2 servers being down? I mean, down for days... People must be pissed..."

Lol... They'd probably just tell me that that information was confidential.

I gave up on most MMOs after I quit WoW.  I dabbled in Aion for a while and, while I love that game!, I just don't have the time to devote to any type of MMO end gaming.  My oldest kid still plays Aion so I have a character on her account.  I am going to play Old Republic, though.  I mean, it's Star Wars.  I know, I know, Galaxies, right?  But no.  Just no.  It won't happen that way.

Oh... Hmm... I know, but, I'm not sure Bioware is completely in charge of that game. Check some previous around... I've heard it doesn't look as good as we hope.

So if I started playing while not logged on what are the affects? Would i still get achievments and would it upload data once the servers are fixed?
