Also, after this and Mass Effect 2 and 3, Skyrim and other titles, it's clear to me, with the benefit of hindsight, the the worst gaming purchase I made was the PS3.

Not because the PS3 is an inferior system. No, it's because the PS3 just isn't supported, nor are its gamers respected, by developers. I don't know why. I couldn't begin to speculate. But it's clear that Xbox 360 titles are better developed and supported than their PS3 counterparts. If I had knew that was going to be the case when I first threw down hard cash, I would have gone for the Xbox 360.

It does make me sad though. Oh well...Live and learn.

For those of you PC folks, i fixed my problem with uninstall, leaving the saved games and other content, reinstalled, uploaded the packs without any of the add on's and was able to revive my otherwise corrupted games. Consciously backing up the files now anyway onto external drive and will await info on patch for add ons, which is what seems to be the problem, since i left them out of my reinstall.

Are you refering to the add on weapon packs that you didn't reinstall?  I wonder if bioware tried to reproduce it with all the dlc packs installed, since that sounds like it is what it causing the issue. 

Hi, I can assure you that the issue is not caused by item packs, as the Japanese version of Dragon Age II has been released in February without having the item packs 1 and 2 bundled (but MotA was), and still Japanese PS3 users have been reporting exactly the same issue that is discussed in this thread before the item pack 1 came out (the item pack 2 is not even released yet).

Wait, are you telling me bioware released the game in Japan without fixing the issues?! WOW just wow, way to go biofail.

Seriously the Witcher 2 puts Bioware lastest games into shame. And after the dissappointment Mass effect 3 was (not just the ending) Im probably done with this guys.

Mass Effect 2 and Dragon Age Origins are 2 solid great games. Dragon Age 2 is a joke and thats without mentioning the game breaking bugs. Mass effect 3 is a good game but is lacking in comparison to Mass effect 2 and not to mention the ending. Whats next Dragon Age III? LOL I wont be able to tranfer the Dragon Age 2 save file, so whats the point of playing it? it will probably be disappointing too.

Unless they give us an option to tranfer the DA:O save file without needing the DA2 save file to DA3 or fix the MOTA issue I'm done with Bioware.

I think I am more mad that I played through EVERYTHING with all 3 character types. downloaded MoTA when it came out, played all three characters really without any indication things would get corrupted, I then continued to overwrite my game saves and backed everything up onto my external HD to then find out everything is corrupted later when I try to load up a game.

just makes me upset that all the hours put in to get everything done 100% with different storyline endings etc and to have it all for nothing since I probably wont be able to import these saves to set up the storyline for DA3 if/when it comes out.

DA2 was very repetitve in my eyes and to play it through all over again will be a HUGE drag =(

[Tommyspa]

Has there been any ways to avoid the corruption? Such as simply not using autosave at all during the game, for example.

[MrsMime]

Okay, just to be clear - does this bug mess up your game saves only from MotA, or from DA2 as well? Because I downloaded and am already into MotA (albeit not far) but am only in the middle of act III of the game itself. Will I be able to jump back into my normal game? Am I going to have to start from the beginning..!?

[JEC94]

So I decided to finally beat the game just to see the ending......and the post game save is not corrupt! Will I be able to transfer the post game save to da3? I have everything but legacy done in that save. I can try to beat Legacy to see if it doesn't corrupt this time using the post game save but idk, what if I screw the post game save too? At least I can transfer to da3 (if I can) that post game save ! Uff, thank God that post game save is working! I think Im ready for DA3!

[MrsMime]

Is it only post-game saves that get corrupt? I beat both MotA and Legacy and the save file that resulted isn't corrupt, but I didn't beat the game yet.

It mostly happens in the last area before the final battle (dont wanna spoil you the place name) , but to some people like me it also happened in the tower base (was that the name?) in Legacy. So you are good for now.

[MrsMime]

But you were able to revert to a save from before the DLCs, which resulted in a perfectly normal save file, right?

I created a bunch just to be safe (one before I started either DLC, one after MotA, one after MotA and Legacy); those won't get corrupted also, will they?

[Nathan_Corso]

The corruption occur only when someone tries to complete all the three main part of DA2:
- DA2 itself
- Legacy
- Mark of the Assassin

I experienced the bug while playing MotA, because I've already ended DA2 and Legacy; someone else experienced it while playing Legacy or during the last sequence of DA2, because they followed a different gaming order.

The conclusion is - until a fix will show - that isn't possible to have in the same savefile completed data from DA2, Legacy and MotA.
Just from two of them is fine, but not with all of them.


Ps: by the way I experienced the bug having all the story dlc installed (legacy, mota and prince, and the emporium as well), but none of the item packs.

[MrsMime]

Good to know, thanks! I also have installed the same DLC story packs as you (Legacy, MotA, Exiled Prince, and Black Emporium) and not the item packs.

I'll revert to my save from MotA only - do you think that will work? My current save is after beating both MotA and Legacy, but I do have one that I made after only beating MotA.

Does anybody know if a corrupted save file means you can't revert to an older save file? That's pretty much all I'm worried about. I covered my tracks pretty well, and created a few different save files at different points so that I could revert no problem, but I'm concerned I won't be able to.

[Nathan_Corso]

With your save after Legacy and Mota you should be able to play normally until the last few fights of DA2: there you might encounter the bug (and the save will be corrupted only from that point), or you might be lucky.

If you have a save with only Mota completed, you should be able to complete DA2 without any corruption issue.
However the savefile will be "incomplete", because it's missing entirely the Legacy storyline: that's the real drawback of the bug :S

[MrsMime]

Thanks for your input.
I get it now - a big part of the problem will be importing my save file into DA3 if they haven't fixed it by then, as my Legacy choices won't be on there.

I think I'll try to play until the end with the savefile I have now, and if it doesn't work, revert to my post-MotA-but-pre-Legacy save, and see if that works.

Hopefully they're working on a fix for this..it's been a hell of a long time since the problem surfaced, pretty annoying.

No, I used to save in one save file all the time, I didn't expected something like this was going to happen. I managed to beat Mota without problem but the corruption was occurring in Legacy so I couldn't beat Legacy and decided to continue the main game, I was lucky to had an auto save before Legacy. But then the corruption started occurring in the last ''area'' before the final battle. So I decided to beat the game just to see the ending, to find out that the post game save wasn't corrupted!  Miracle! Now I need to know if I will be able to transfer that save file to dragon age 3. Is lacking the Legacy choices but is better than nothing.

Sorry if my english is bad......

[MrsMime]

Ohh man, that sucks. I was in the habit of making new saves after every act or highly significant event, in case I made a wrong decision or something and wanted to revert. So, I was lucky that I did that before I started anything - I'm prepared. I never would have expected anything like this to happen either - and I never would have known, if I hadn't stumbled across the Dragon Age Wiki page for MotA!

Btw your English is great!

this corrupt save problem just happened to me.

the problem occurred when i tried to load a saved game during "the last straw" after completing both legacy and mark of the assassin.

sad to see that more than half a year has already passed by and this problem still persists in the game, a game breaking problem at that which just makes it all the more inexcusable.

ps: 

specs->    ps3 120gb.
                 dragon age 2 (uk version) both story DLC and latest patch installed.
                 game worked fine after completing legacy (before tackling mark of the assassin).
                 the corruption only occurred when i tried to load the game with both DLC complete.

I cleared mine up by going to game save data and deleting updates and doing a fresh install of patches and regrinding charters for when da3 comes out

[DarkJokerOfAmuro]

actually another thing Bioware should do is postpone all development for DA 3 until this bug is fixed ...they plan on making it possible for DA 3 to import files from Origins and II...now...how the hell are we gonna be able to do THAT if our from DA II files keeps getting corrupted and is unplayable... this really isnt something any company should just give up on...not if messes up the data....ON CHANCE even ( a really high chance too)...I'm actually concerned if the ppl of Bioware or EA are even going to do anything about it considering its been this long (I'm not trying to be mean or attack anyone and I'm sorry if you took it that way ...I'm just a frustrated gamer who wants answers) =(

I still think that the real reason of why they never made more dlc for DA2 is this issue. But I doubt this problem will stop them for making Dragon Age 3.

Sounds like DA3 might be delayed until 2014 now. Read it in one of the other forum posts on here. The thing that sucks is that until either they or one of us figures out the definite reason why the corruption is happening then it likely won't get fixed. They haven't been able to reproduce it and I'm betting they have now given up on it. I won't be buying DA3 until they fix this. Wouldn't even play it if I was paid to honestly. This bug basically ruined about 120 hours between the two games for me. Uggggh wish someone would stumble upon something that could/would determine the cause of it. I'm stumped myself. And after the ending of ME3 I'm probably done with Bioware period.

2014? Does that means it's for PS4? Lame, I rather get it early for PS3.

 So this may be bad, but I didn't want to search thorugh all the pages to find an answer. 

I just realized I never recieved the Deep Green bonus item after completing the MotA DLC. I have seen two sources that says you needed to claim item by November 1 (the Dragon Age Wiki) and a forum here that had a picture saying it needed to be completed by October 26. I'm sure that as soon as I completed the DLC, I stayed up late in order to finish, I thought I had claimed the item. 

My achievements are all synced to my profile here and I'm pretty sure I complted the DLC before November 1 (if that was the case) but I still don't see it in the 'Unlockables' area on my PS3. When I go to http://social.biowar...da2/mota_bonus/  it says the link has expired. Is there a way to check as to when the DLC was completed? 

Or maybed I read a lot of information wrong and I'm just SOL. Which kinda stinks becuase I wanted the bought hence why I bought the DLC.

the only thing i can think of is that it was put into your inventory if you havent checked it...not really sure if it would have came out on the Unlockable area anyway...sides buy and doing the whole DLC for just a ring? thats kinda messed up dont you think?

[The Spirit of Dance]

I came here to see if the legacy + MotA bug was cleared up but based on how other people are talking it's still there.<_<
