i guess the people in bioware admitted their incompetency about this update issues.


When dealing with complex systems and data for hundreds of thousands of players across 3 different platforms, some bugs are inevitable, and we have been working as quickly as possible to get them all resolved.    We've been completely open about the fact that those bugs exist in the online systems, as well as
the ones that are present in the game that prevent some files from ever
getting uploaded.   If you are still experiencing problems, try the workarounds presented here and elsewhere, most of which are designed to make the game actually upload what it is supposed to be uploading.

Tried all of them sadly. None of them work for me. Stuck with my level 2 character. Guess this is one feature I'll have to write off for this play through. Once I start a new one whenever it is hopefully it works for me.

One possible solution I saw posted somewhere in the forums was to change the Dragon Age: Origins Content Updater to Automatic Startup Type instead of Manual. I tried this and and it does indeed run when I start my system and log into Windows. But it seems that shortly after exiting the game it closes down. I've checked this several times now, and every single time, the service is running fine up until I start and exit the game itself. It would seem that the game is terminating the Content Updater service upon exit from the game, which means uploading any information to this site can only occur while running the game. I guess changing the Dragon Age: Origins Content Updater to Automatic Startup instead of Manual is pretty much pointless!

I've now switched the service back to Manual Startup and will just let the game manage the service to see how updates go.

EDIT: Correcting formatting applied by the forum! Why does the forum keep auto-formatting posts?

I am still curious when the warrior I beat the game with is going to update on the social site. According to the site its still lvl 6. While Achievements and the other characters I have manage to update, allbeit insanely slow.

I figured, that this site has a problem reading profile files containing the letter ü

Slightly confused here, are character profiles a seperate thing from achievements? My achievements are updating but not the characters....

Both my characters and my achievents stopped updating 5 days ago, even though the site claims it updated more recently (it might have, but it sure isn't showing the updated data).



I've tried all suggested workarounds to no avail, the screenshot I uploaded for the "upload a screenshot" workaround isn't showing either (but the count of online files did go up by one when I check ingame)

I've had one character upload weeks ago then nothing? Slow or completely broken?

Achievements are stored on separate servers from character data, which is why they show up more quickly.



mrfloydian1973: I see 2 characters on your account right now, and have confirmed that you do not have any further characters uploaded from your copy of the game to the backend servers.

My second character never uploaded fully. Doesn't have a picture at all. The first character took 8 or 9 days to update to what it's now on the website, even though that's still one level behind what I really am. :P



I don't really care about the slow updates, since I mostly ignore the character profiles, but I'd like to use the character portrait of my new mage instead of what I got now, and then it sucks if the graphics for that one aren't available.

I'm having a problem where I get the message "The specified game does not support online player profiles" whenever I try to view any of my characters.  I can see the list of characters along with my basic stats and stuff, but when I try to view an individual character I get that message.  I'm playing on Xbox 360 but I've seen people on the other versions with the same problem.  Anyone know what the deal is with this?

Ah, so would I be correct in thinking that only characters made with the standalone character creator get uploaded? As those two were, the two characters that don't show are ones made in the full game which doesn't even give me an option to upload (all set to automatic in the options).

My character data only seems to update when I upload a screenshot for that character.



And even then, it still takes a while.

negative floydian, it does. Im not sure but it seems to upload when you save (my router blinks then) possibly the firewall restricts the game a bit for you?

It's really unlikely that it's a firewall issue. For some reason there seems to be a fair few players that never get their characters updated. I'm still level 2 and apparently going through my origin story still. Disappointing to say the least.

have you tryed to create a character with the character creator play him a bit and upload screenshots manually taken by another one ? (i had to play from the launcher to make it work though) that fixed one for me at least , and for some reason which i dont know why the pic of one is not broken anymore , i ll try getting my other chars to show here later on
