if this is what a small dlc can cause, god knows what problems dragon age: awakening is going to be like- i doubt that will come out till next year[/quote]

I put my money on it coming out on time actually. The only reason the full game got delayed so much was because EA/Bioware had a hard on for a simultaneous release and as far as I'm aware the expansion was made by most of the guys who worked on the original. Generally you don't put a retail release date out without expecting to hit pretty damn close.

it would be be awesome if it came out on release date, dont get me wrong theres been a lot of games in the past 12 months that has had a retail release date and its slips by six months or so

That was not my experience. It all seems to work fine as you play, but when you restart the Xbox, the specilizations are all locked again. If you unlock it in any other playthrough, it is unlocked. I have just been going to other saved games, unlocking, and then returning to this save. It has not been an issue, but that is just for me. This happens every time you restart -  you just cannot "add" a specialization at levls 7 and 14...I have had no problems with saves other than that. To be clear, I got the update, but did not download RTO...Again, this is only for me.

I'm not sure if anyone at Bioware, Edge of Reality, or EA is aware of
this bug, but after I downloaded the title update for the Xbox 360
version around 1:00 AM on 01-13-10, all of the tactics presets don't
work.







Here's what happened.  I returned to camp, noticed that Morrigan, Sten,
Dog, and Shale all leveled, and proceeded to level up each character. 
Well, they all received a new tactics slot, and since I use the tactics
presets (Scrapper, Archer, etc.) I went to look at what tactic filled
the new tactic slot.  Everything was fine until I changed the tactics
preset to see what my new options were.  When I changed to a new tactics
preset (from Scrapper to Defender, etc.) all of the tactic slots became
empty, even the preset I just came from was empty when I returned
to it.  However, the Custom preset still has all the tactic slot from filled accept the new one.







I have not left camp or entered any battles, so I don't know if the
tactics presets still work even though all the tactic slots appear empty,
or if my companions will just stand there and do nothing.







Considering the title update was ONLY supposed to fix the DLC
achievement glitch, I'm wondering how this happened and what else may
have been broken by this title update?

Siiiiiiggggghhhhh...



The anticipation for the PC version is killing me! As good as the game was, and as much as I am waiting to buy EVERYTHING they make as an addon for DAO (within reason), teasing us like this is CRUEL.



Tell you what: Don't ever notify us of a release date again. Just go to your cubes, lock yourselves in, and code. Debug, debug, debug, and when you guys are really ready, just let us know. If home made cookies will help, let me know, I am willing to help in any way I can.



I hate you right now, but I love you when you deliver me good games... Just go do it!

I got the update AND RtO, I didn't have any problems. RtO was a little short, but I didn't expect much for $5. I'm hoping Awakening is closer to the length of a full game and actually comes out as scheduled.

All I can say is that I wish everybody good luck, I hope players don't have restart their characters. delelopers can fix their issues, and then we can all get together and start world peace.

wait until you power off and restart DAO and level up... I thought mine was ok too initially, then I leveled up and noticed all my specs locked.

To those wondering how there can be so many bugs... because even one misspelled line of code, or one tiny unforeseen resource conflict, can FUBAR the entire thing. And *finding* tiny bugs like that can be literally finding a one line needle-like error in a 10k line haystack.

Sorry folks. Until we get the information straight for all versions, I am not going to piece-meal out bits and bots. I know you are all waiting on updates for all 3 platforms and when I can confirm things for you, I will.

It seems to infuriate some of you that I post here without giving you details, and I am sorry for that too. I want you to know that we have not forgotten about you or these issues. We are working on things and will update you as soon as we have details. While it is not yet enough information, I believe it is better to know we are still listening and working  rather than being ignored and left in the dark.



:devil:


Chris I thank you for what information you can give us.  Even if it's just a bit or bot now and then.

As I said, given what's going on (and whatever disclosure agreements you're bound by), I don't think anyone can ask more than that.

Now excuse me, it was a choice between whether to start a playthrough of Crysis or Dragon Age tonight, and I figure I'll wait until the DLC comes out before starting Dragon Age again B)

ya know, i downloaded everything already. ah well. the way i see it, i'm digging the game, and if something craps ups and i gotta start over, oh well. you guys just keep doing your best; that's all i ask or expect of anyone, and you really do some amazing work (the codex alone has held my interest for hours...am i the only one who reads all of this excellent material?).


No, I found that the "30 minute" Warden's Keep content took me MUCH longer than that, because I read each codex entry as I received it. The only problem I had with this was the way the characters seemed surprised by details that were already revealed in codex content I'd just read. It would be nice if their reactions changed based on whether the user had clicked (and assumingly read) the codex contet, thus knowing what to expect, or if the user skipped the codex entry item/note or chose to pick up the codex item but never opened and read it and then acted surprised.

But that is a minor complaint that I'm sure will be adressed, if not in DA:O, in some future BioWare game.

At risk of being called a fanboy, (and while I have my favorites and others that I have some issues with) I've never played a BioWare game I didn't like at least a little.

My character is level 20, nothing to unlock, unless you're telling me that the specs I already put points into aren't going to work.

Whew.  Thanks for the quick reply.  If thats the case then no biggie really.  As long as that save isn't corrupted than its just more annoying than anything.  Damn!  Last night i saved over my Dalish Camp file right before I unlock my AW.  Oh well.    

Guess I'll go start up another Origin before I get back to my AW.

Sure, Im in the IT biz too, I can understand that mistakes happen, but that is why we have System test, system integration tests, etc etc etc... guess they cut some corners when releasing this DLC. Quality should never be compromised in any delivery.

It's good to have some words from you Chris, still I think that you guys should have made the things clearer from a beginning. At least it's good to know that you are not giving any new dates, so that means that probably you guys now are fully dedicated to work with an internal schedule rather  than one made public...

Addicted2Anime your tactics issue is on the PC as well (an old problem), not a problem at all, just reselect tactics preset once they are in your party and everything is fine... about 3 seconds of inconvenience.
