This topic is for logging glitching issues you have come across in the game so we can streamline it and give Bioware the info they need to get the first patch rolling.  Please refrain from flaming etc and put any technical detail/ character path you can in here to speed up the process.  Also please (if possible I know there may be a ton) if another has referenced the same glitch please post the glitch # and add any variations you had (if applicable) or simply the glitch # so they can see how many are having the same issue.

Glitch #1: Human rogue Noble origin.  System crashes after Duncan takes you to the first town.  Game completes cinematic dialogue with the king and you are told to walk about the camp.  The moment normal gameplay resumes the screen blacks out and requires a system restart.  Game crashes within moments of loading the save game at that point. 

Testing done: uninstalled and reinstalled graphic drivers and DirectX.   Also tried with new character & increased graphics and system crashes at same location (no crashes before this point).  Tried system on Oblivion, World of Warcraft and Doom3 to test if it was a graphics issue and no crashes located at max graphics load for those games.

No problems for me same situation. Could you list your hardware specifics?

[Brygard2009]

Charactor Generator:

When you adjust the cheek bones width and then select the beards hair it reset the value of the cheeks making them so bony.



Even if you adjust the checks it will always reset when you select a beard to bony state look at pic.





I gave up and made a non bearded char that's on my avatar.

[JackDresden]

@Devanshyr the fact remains not everyone has a crash at that point so in order for your info to be helpful they need at least details of your hardware,os & drivers.

I'll add them as soon as I get home (at work atm lol).  I have ATI graphics card and crossfire ed setup however I only have 1 video card running atm in case it was an issue with crossfire.

[OneEyeRed]

Running an Ati HD 3870 and have had intermittent black screen issues causing a hard boot to restart system. Now after the cut scene in ostragar, I go straight to black screen and have to hard reboot. Other threads with other folks having same issue in same area.

[Gidzen]

What I've seen so far as glitches was my Rogue elf character lost 3 points on the cunning attribute after 10 mins of play? (way before leveling up). It may be related to equiping a ring, i just didn't notice...(was still getting use to the menu inventory system)

For some reason it hated my initial specs posting so I'll add them here:

I'm experiencing random freezes when talking to NPCs. I can launch the task manager, but can't interact with it, so I have to hit the almighty reset switch. Doing this will then cause my internal card reader to no longer be recognized by Windows, and subsequent attempts to launch DAO (via Steam) will immediately result in a BSOD. I have to actually power off the system, then things are back to normal...up until the next time I experience a random freeze. Because of the involvement with the card reader, I thought it might be bad hardware, but no other game causes this behavior (Crysis, Aion, WoW, Bioshock, HL2, The Witcher to name a few examples), and when the device is properly recognized, it works just fine.

My system specs should be more than adequate for this game, so I'm pretty sure it's not that:

ya i got a recommand specs... and i keep crashing when i am in battle for a while in redcliff...

[Bhouse563]

On the 360 version, Mage origin: When in dialog with the rage demon in the fade "Mouse" stood next to me as he was supposed to but then his bear form appeared inside my character while he still stood next to me. Also, at the end of the fight my character was still under the DoT "Flame Burst" cast by the rage demon and remained on fire until I gained control of him again (about 5 minutes of cut scenes later).

[SkiTheMadRussian]

I've been scouring the boards for others with the same problem as me and it looks like its a major issues for a lot of folks. We're getting black screen freezes around the Ostagard area, seemingly at random. The crash always requires a reboot and does not give an error, just a black screen, as if the monitor goes into PowerSave mode.

AMD Phenom Black Edition 9850 Quad Core
Crossfire Radeon HD 4850
Vista 32

I've seen a pretty wide range of specs for people who had this issue, mostly ATI but a few Nvidia and Intel too. The game always runs at 100% CPU usage, too, so it could be causing overheat issues.

[Togashi Mitsu]

My bonus item from the pre-purchase, more specifically, the experience boosting ring, is not functioning properly. It has no stats on it and is not giving me and increased xp.

[Quaxo]

Bugs I've encountered:

Game randomly crashes:
About 20% of the time when I open the inventory screen.
About 20% of the time when a cutscene starts.

Other than that, no crashing.

Downloadable content:
"The Stone Prisoner", downloading as I write this, is currently 183% downloaded... and still going........
-=EDIT=- Ok, Stone Prisoner finally finished when it reached 200%.

When I hit level 4 I got 0 attribute points. I pressed C to open the character screen, clicked level up, clicked next without applying any attribute points (to see if I was getting a skill point or a spell point), clicked previous to return to the attribute screen, clicked the reset button on the attribute screen by accident and saw that my available attribute points said 0.

[vowtoo]

360 issues

maping ablility tutorial freeze after first level up in game, 3 consecutive times at the same point

[Blips]

for the PC anyways:



The male city elf origin played the "cook" cutscene twice. The second time the friendly elf was invisible.



If a party member dies, and there is a frost weapon spell active, you will need to reset the spell - it wont apply to the party member once he is revived.

On the quest "Pearls Before Swine", I've gone to the Pearl, ran the mercs off. Journal says it's completed and I should return to Kylon and tell him the news. On the journey back, ran into Kylon again. We all get jumped and he and all of the guards were killed, but my party still survived. I continue travelling back, and Kylon is still in the marketplace, but tells me I should go to the Pearl and get rid of the mercs, which I've already done.

I can't complete this quest, it can't be deleted, and I can't move on with that part of the story.

-=EDIT=-
Had to go back to a previous save and do it again. If Kylon survives the ambush, he gives you your reward there. If he doesn't survive, the above happens and you can't complete the quest.

Glitch or cheat:
You can get unlimited 50 xp as far I can tell by unlocking the treasure room each time you zone to first floor and back to second floor all the time in Redcliffe castle.

[Zapaann]

I wanted to offer a potential source of problems with online issues that I think everyone overlooks.... Flash settings. Especially if you use the same PC to browse the internet with, that you game on. It can be tricky for some to find because it is on Macromedia website. If your setting is like most, to allow 3rd party to load software onto your PC, you may want to visit the Flash Player Settings control panel (located on Macromedia website; I used search engine to find the page quickly, then bookmarked it). Upon visiting the settings, one of the tabs ("Website Privacy Settings") will show the junk you may have clogging up/interfering with your internet access performance. I deleted all the 3rd party junk and my PC (& mac) ran a bit faster with online activities. good luck

1. Bad textures

2. Frame-Buffer Effect inconsistencies

Random crashes, just as it sounds. Can happen anywhere at anytime, though usually when interacting with an NPC or object in the world.



Windows Vista Ultimate X64

Asus P6T motherboard, Intel X58 chipset

Intel Core i7 940 2.9GHz

2x2GB Twin DDR3 sticks(4GB total)

GeForce 9800GX2(Doesn't seem to make a difference between playing with multi-GPU on or off)



It's the Digital Deluxe Edition of Dragon Age, if that helps.

[Nithrakis Arcanius]

I was experiencing random crashes while running EVGA precision, which overlays a fps counter. Those of you are experiencing crashes...are you running fraps or another other tool that shows a FPS overlay? Try closing those programs if you are experiencing problems.

It seems to have worked for me. I don't think I've experienced a crash without EVGA precision running and crashed quite a bit with it running.

It's just a guess but it worked for me.
