The lock decision you took was wrong from the begining..I dont think that more then 10 people were discussing the whole pirate sybject,so unless you wanted us to shut our mouths about the RtO delay you should warn/ban the guys that were breaking the rules.By closing it you shuted the mouths of those that truly wanted to discuss the matter of the delay and not of the pirated client of RtO

I'm not "shutting the mouth" of anyone. Your being here is proof of that. I closed the thread since warnings don't seem to last longer than the page they're on -- and the people who do continue to break forum rules by discussing pirated software will indeed be banned. In this case it's a situation of one bad apple spoiling the barrel. As it is, you're free to continue discussing the delay, aren't you?

If people do continue to break the rules  then temporaly ban them.im pretty sure after the ban is lift they wont do it again.Ok i have to admit the phrase "shutting our mouths" is wrong but i cant understand what the lock will provide?What will prevent the people who broke the rules in the other thread break them in that one too?

You will keep locking threads until they get bored,or you will finaly ban them from doing it?Anyway im not a bioware hater or something.I enjoyed playing any bioware game and i understand that you guys doing your best about fixing all the games bugs and make happy your customers.

The only negative thing that bioware have in my opinion is their forum decision/managment



Maybe the temporary ban function is buggy? Or not yet discovered cause it seems like things only get discovered an hour before it's supposed to be used/available.

The DLC is 1hr played by first timer and 15 minutes played by developers as stated in a post long time ago. Or you can think of it this way. Warden's keep was $7, they priced RTO at $5 to reflect "value for money" so it probably plays around the length of warden's keep.


To be fair, as I recall it the dev said he "could" do it in 15 minutes and was guessing at an hour for first-time players. Could be longer, or it could be shorter than that. I don't really think a dev who is used to doing speed-runs to check playability or whatever is the most reliable when it comes to play-time for most people because most people aren't going to do a play-through like a dev would I wouldn't imagine. No offense meant to any of the devs, of course.

I will wait until it's release. Wouldn't be looking at any P copy of it at all. I don't like P's never have and never will.
But an interesting note for some of you maybe. I use to have a hacker, a bonefided Hacker help me with my mod all the time.


My name is P and I do not like you either :P

I am suprised this has not been locked yet since it is nothing but a snide remark in a long line of them made by the OP. 
Warlord seems to want it locked as well. I see he is continuing his crusade of how the mods do everything wrong and are horribly unrespectfull people even after several times being told this is not the place and where to take his grievances too. (hint hint warlord its not here and like I said you are not solving anything you are as much of the problem as those you attack)  You have been assualting them for days now and claim they are partaking in some sort of facist sensoring of these forums yet if that was true you yourself would have been banned and all your posts deleted.
The attacks, slander, snide and sarcastic remarks do nothing but get yet another thread locked.  It is astounding to see those that are most against threads getting locked are mostly the ones that contribute to that making it happen.
Non of these things will get BW to release RtO faster or be more willing to talk with the community.

RESPECT it is a two way street. You do not deserve it if you are not willing to give it.


Do note that there is no "Tone" in internet forums and often snide-ness is in the eye of the beholder.

I was wondering why I couldn't even go back to Lothering I'm a good guy no? Shouldn't I be able to go to Lothering after it was attacked and see if anyone lives? .-. Mayhaps an Addon to rush to lothering to help save one or two children maybe? see it burning with a dead man crawling away from a burning hut?

If they really delayed it to add more content then it's rather smart as a business decision. But what are the chances content is being added?



Zero? The DLC is done. People are playing it. It's completed. They're not going to waste man-hours adding arbitrary content when they don't have to. Bioware is sitting on it for a reason, likely a marketing one. They need to launch RoT when it's going to be most profitable.


Then they probably deemed the added profits to be worth the people screaming murder over the delay. Lets hope they are right.

There are already reviews on return to ostagar and seems like people like it more than warden's keep. So that's one good news for us people waiting :P

OMG Duncan's weapons. My rogue just did a little dance.

That would have been 2-3 weeks ago.  Seriously, Bioware is not going to make more money having held the release into January.  To have missed the holiday season window means they've missed out on people having more time to play due to do being on holiday.  Whatever is holding up the release this isn't about them holding it back to make more money.

It came from the other thread where a player said that it showed and he bought it but was not completed when he tried to download it.

After all the fuss that's been going on over them delaying it (yet again) I don't see it getting released without an announcement or any mention at all. Most likely a bug unfortunately.

maybe that is from when they originally were going to post and then held off and somehow it got through? It has to be some kind of error otherwise it wouldn't have locked up for him. Or is that one of the bogus copies maybe being passed????

Sloth of Doom also pointed out that a few people had the DLC showing as "available" since the 5th just like that in the pic BUT they could not get it as well.

It's only a vague long shot assumption but I personally believe that BioWare had no part in the delay other than being forced to fulfill some contract clause with console manufacturers. (hope it doesn't sound too much like Miss Teen 2007 South Carolina)

And I don't think the guy lost his points but they've been actually associated with the DLC and it will begin d/l immediately after it is released and he's logged with game client.

I'm going to have to go with Kepha on this. The holiday season is "the season" to make a lot of money for game content. This isn't like an iPhone, a Modern Warfare game or something that will stir up hype to get people lining up around corners, this is downloadable content for a niche RPG gaming community. Whatever the delay is, it has to be something that is so bad that they couldn't do the "well, we'll patch it afterward" routine.

Do not buy! Log off then try again after a few minutes.

I would probably not buy it. There is always a chance that buying it now won't get the right stuff associated with your account so that you can get it later.
