 I think it will be pashed back to be Set on those Con as a PC user my self will we get the game befor them?

[Herr Uhl]

Are you saying that you think it will be released on PC before consoles? Considering the development of DAO I highly doubt it.

[fchopin]

I think there will be very little difference in the beginning as they will probably make the games compatible with the 360.

Inb4 port

Awful console ports may actually not be an issue with next-gen consoles. Current word is that the next Playstation is simply an average gaming PC shoved in a fancy box, it's using a seemingly normal AMD APU. They wouldn't be sending a system like that to developers if it didn't represent the final product, technically.

AMD should be providing the chip for the next Xbox as well, and many people are expecting a console from Valve, also just a typical PC in a fancy box.

Thats ONE issue of ports, the other being s***ty UI/controls, like the "awesome button!" in ME3 that does like half the things in the game.

Just a another reason for developers to be even more lazier with their ports. As long as they can chuck out even remotely working product they seem to be happy.
It might make some more willing to do PC port but I doubt the quality will improve, just the opposite.

If Valve makes a console they're definitely going to be providing access to fan made mods. I wonder if that would ever change Microsoft and Sony's minds on the subject.

For the OP: No. I can pretty much guarantee 100% if the game is delayed to coincide with a next gen console release, it will be delayed for PC as well. Its probably more accurate that the development schedule will be lengthened.

As for ports, there are NUMEROUS games that are so badly ported that I either don't buy them at all or I wait until they are $5 bucks on a Steam super sale. For me a bad port is a messed up interface mostly and lack of much needed options. Field of View being the most notable. If a developer doesn't include a field of view configuration toggle, it means they don't care much about the PC market. Not being able to have user configurable keys, not recognizing that a mouse can have more than 2 buttons... those kinds of things. I also consider certain types of games to be "console" games. Most people know them as button mashers. Generally I stay clear of those too.

What I want to know is will there be save imports for Dragon Age 3 for consoles and if so how will it be handled.

[Robhuzz]

Crappy ports go further than bad graphics though. Highly annoying UI, controls and FOV come to mind.

[MichaelStuart]

As long as it has controller support, I will be happy with the PC version.

[Atakuma]

It's going to be a simultaneous release. There is no point in giving anyone platform an early release.

It's not even average. I did a small test with Intel HD 4000 (just wanted to see how it runs it, I was rather surprised) did a much better job than my PS3 in ME3 demo.

I'm a PC gamer though and would never switch to console gaming. The PS3 is fine Blu-Ray player though. The current gen is really over. Nothing has really happened in ages when it comes to graphics in games and the hardware is limiting the gameplay too (mainly thanks to ridiculously low amount of ram).

The next Playstation's development kits are reportedly using an AMD A10 APU, which is significantly faster than the Intel 4000, even without the chip-focused optimization that will happen.

Congratulations, you were the first to ask that inevitable and needless question to that post.  I guess the other 9000 times it was asked in response to other identicle posts didn't beat that dead horse sufficiently eh?  Theres still a bit of squishy flesh to pulverize somewhere I bet.  The beating shall go on until there is not a single atom of solid dead horse remaining.

Bioware has traditionally put more emphasis on the PC versions, especialy with the DA franchise because the RPG genre usually handle better with a keyboard mouse than a controller. So I'm not realy concerned by the risk of a console port, since it will probably be the other way around. I would like it, if for once, Bioware will finaly put a controller support.

As for release date. That depends on the console companies. If Microsoft is willing to pay for a 30 day exlucive, I'm sure EA/Bioware will be happy to oblige. But I don't know how likely that is: DA3 will probably selll 3-4 million copies, which is great. But I don't think anyone will consider it a "console seller" (A game you will buy a console for).
Ofcourse it realy depends on how awesome DA3 will look with the new engine. My bet: extemely!

Hope this turns out to be the case. If so, sounds like great news for the prospect of PC versions being better optimized in the future and games which are better able to make use of modern CPUs, more persistent data, etc.

Valve console? Do want. Valve aren't saints but I'd rather much buy their stuff than something Microsoft/Sony/Nintendo would make.

Yeah, I'm more looking forward to the improvement in the AI, level layouts, and camera options in the next gen ports.  Or at least the potential for them.  Eye candy can be nice though.

I disagree, mostly because I find keyboard and mouse slow and uncomfortably to use.

I really have no idea what this means, however I'll take a guess... whatever platforms DA3 is released on, they will all be released simultaneously. Hopefully we might even get it on the same day in the UK! (wishful thinking...)
