Not confirmed by EA or BioWare. It's a user supposition.

Proably not confirmed but this makes me think...

That quest DOES NOT make you recruit a character in the crew. It only make you recruit him/her as strategic resource.
This bug DOES NOT break the game.

Only if you are not interested in completing the game at 100%.
I am, so MY game is broken. Especially if you think that the "grissom academy" mission expires if you go tto further in the game.

I don't care, next time you buy The lord of the rings just throw away the pages talking about tom bombadil, still it is the ord of the rings plot but it's not the same book, now please stop this stupid comments like the one up here. It's an insult to our intelligence and to our moneys.

The thing i'd like you guys to understand is that the guys in BW are on our side regarding this issue. The problems we're having are limited to the italian version of the game, everyone else is playing this game smoothly. They're probably as pissed as us regarding this matter, since someone in the process of localization had the great idea to spoil the result of their work, (and if you ask me the game as a triology and the game itself is just awesome) probably thanks to some guy who is only intrested in getting his monthly share of the money. So i think we should let them work and thank them for their support. If you want to blame someone at least don't blame the ones that are trying to help you....

Well...I made a backup saving and I continued to play....
I just want to tell you 2 things:
1-When you complete Citadel-Priority 2 and come back to the Normandy the liutenant Treynor told me that Reapers destroyed all the System where Academy was (so...no mails on my terminal).
2-In the Academy there was an object for a previous secondary mission found on Citadel.
3-Later in the game,you finally arrive in a System where you will find another ME2 pg.In the same location (if you have dlc overlord) there is...ok I am not going to spoiler anyway,if you don't complete the Academy there is another bad news for you...
Well we are so unlucky....so many secondary missions and the most important one is bugged :facepalm:
Oh manco a farlo apposta lol

Not true at all, there are plenty of discussions about a lot of bugs, like for example the mission on tuchanka which can't be completed because npc do not spawn, so, in the world are not "playiong this game smoothly". The fact that there are people who are working to fix the problem does not make me forget that there should have been people who have been payed in order not to pass this problem to an entire country, it's their duty to work on this issue. And yes i appreciate the updates that bioware is giving us, but i think that is something normal, if the other software houses do something else it's their buisness and it's shame on them.

Of course they will release a global patch, have you any idea how much it costs for them to release a patch over Xbox Live? Thousands of dollars, they can't publish an ad'hoc patch every week for every bug they fix. Beside this, being pissed is more that understandable but that doesn't mean that we can be rude to the developers in this forum because usually, 90% of videogame developers do not even reply in their own forums to their customers/fans, they do not speak to the community, they do not say if they know about a bug, if they are working on it and if a patch will be release and when. While here Bioware's rep has already replied to us many times, they have acknowledge the problem, they have explain what probably is the problem (a race condition) and they said they are working on it, what else do you want them to tell you? Something like "Yes, today we have changed line 1044 to 1126 in loadingcontent.cpp, the problem is the resource loading function Load(); that does this and that".. Really who cares about what they do, I want them to fix the bug not to teach me how to program in C++.


I know that releasing a patch in xbox live is expansive, still this is not my problem, was expansive the game too, and i paid for something that shuould work just fine. So why should i think about how much could it cost to bioware publish a patch, and why Bioware should not think about how much made me pay for the game that don't work?

As I said in the post you quoted, 90% of game developers do not even reply to bug reports in their own forum, Bioware's rep did, so saying that they are not thinking at our problem is not true, they even told us that the problem is a "race condition" and that they are now examining a crash dump, what more do you want them to do to prove you that they care and are working on it? A photo of a programmer scratching his head would not help us or them at this point.


I was arguing about your statement "Of course they will release a global patch, have you any idea how much
it costs for them to release a patch over Xbox Live? Thousands of
dollars, they can't publish an ad'hoc patch every week for every bug
they fix.", I was asserting that i don't care if they have to pay for the patch, and yes i think they should release a specific patch for us, cause that bug damage the experience itself,  it's not a question of glitch or a freeze that accour on a rare and specific condition. To be realistic the game is still playable but the experience is compromised to the point that a lot of people won't play the game at all.

Even so, i'm happy that Bioware reply to the comunity, still i'm not happy that after a week the reply is "we think to have understood the problem", so what? Do you think to solve it and when? I'd like to hear something alike. To me the "race condition" has no meainig, i can't understend that, to me it should be a problem with Turian? o Asari? What race? To made the campagin should i bring Sheppard and Vega only? What... Or Race is a word used to define a runtime error?

What i know is i could not play that mission and i lost the char i would like to have....

Said that, will i play ME3? For sure, i love the game and i will play it more than one, so i have the change to get that missed char the second time. (A good way to make the 2nd run different)

It is only you who decide it is broken. I already completed the game once, without doing the grissom academy, of course, and gg. Not broken, Not at all. The game is totally playable, so it's not broken.

Wise words. BW is spending a lot of time in order to fix the issue created during the process of localization.
Not to mention the potential profit loss in Italian market. Many people are "scared" about such bug and aew dalying the purchase of the game. So I agree BW is on our side.

Did you read the version sent to gaming press before release was not affected by the bug?

It seems someone at EA Italy used the software from Shepard VI. You know, the VI sold on the Citadel famous for its.. crashes. Just a little joke.

Today we should hear some update.

I also noticed an error in the talent screen Defense Matrix (Matrice di difesa) of EDI (IDA). On the rank 4 Durability (Durabilità) appear this message:

I have posted a screenshot here http://i41.tinypic.com/2s1nm6h.jpg


I'm not an expert but I suppose this affects only the text description. It shouldn't affect the actual gameplay. Just take it with the so called pinch of salt.
I have to check the EDI power screen too, I didn't remeber to have noticed it.


Ugh, yeah, I remember that. That was something that changed at the last minute and we didn't have time to update the translations. That only affects the text description, though, and not the gameplay.

Yeah, that's also a difficult issue. I believe some devs are watching that thread, though. Please do continue to update in that thread, particularly with system specifications (which Xbox 360 you have, which language SKU you're trying to play on, whether you have a Kinect sensor attached, etc.).

Thanks!

Well this is just small issue.
Any news on the Grissom Academy issue?
Thanks again for you constant updates.

Sorry mate I disagree with you and the others that posts "BW are helping us" or "BW is pissed off like us" and so on because I pretty sure that this bug is related only to a lack of beta testing (begin of the game, one of the most important side quests for fans etc) so BW, as company, cannot pissed off because they have the ultimate responsability of the game (with EA off course) and they choose beta testing protocols and all other things about the release of the Italian version of the game. A third party is involved? I don't know. EA is a very big company, probably the biggest, and maybe that, in an economically point of view, they decided to have an internal team to test the localized versions but even if a third party is involved this is a "qualified" third party (assures the quality of its work to EA) so again EA/BW is always responsible.

Other topic: do you really think that BW respond to us because they love us? Or because they're kindly and friendly developers (remender the awesome workaround proposed by Chris some pages ago that are no so kindly)? For me no: in my opinion they're responding because an entire market can't play and important side quest and every day wthout a response increase the risk of losing customers (like some other mate says some posts ago).

I think that we're right to complain (a defective product was released to the market), we're right to be pissed off (our money were bug free money) but off couse we can't insult BW staff (Even taking into account some awesome workarounds proposed by BW staff) and I think that we're ok on this point.

I don't think that if somebody wants a product fully functional can be defined "ciaciarone" is only a customer that takes care of what he buys...

Coming back to our issue Ryan did you have any other update? Another day passed and no fix is available... Root cause was finally identified? We can have a due date for releasing the fix?

Regards

Forgive me if the question appears illogical but changing the console language set may help? Is it worth of an attempt or is completely useless.

Thanks.
