Forums like DA:O PC Tech Support are now read-only history, with Answer HQ being the new provision.

I am not averse to change when it's an improvement.  But I don't think this is.  Do you?

What's the difference? The old forums didn't help and if the new Hq doesn't help then it's no better and no worse. Find something better to do with your time than take pot shots at Ea. Surprised?

Will Bioware staff be answering and helping the game owners that have problems?

EA tech support is probably one of the worst I have ever dealt with.

Answer HQ is pretty much similar to the old Self Help forums here from what I have seen, it just feels like it's more jumbled together rather than distinct.

Yes.  I actually found it to be quite good.  I helped a fair bit myself, and when I had questions to ask 9/10 got answered.  Although unlike many people, I could actually be bothered to read stickies and threads labelled "READ FIRST".

Unlikely, as even the previous version was for user-to-user support.  If you wanted to talk to staff, you had to log in and talk to one of EA's "online advisors".  Not sure if that has changed too.

Close.  There was a time when Lucasarts was even worse.  I haven't bought a Star Wars game since.

Basically, yeah.  It looks and feels not as useful.  Basic and accessible?  Maybe.  Technical and useful?  Not so much.
