An update or a post as to what is going on with the DLC right before they left work would have been nice.

Kill the emissary!

The Title Update has been removed by Microsoft. If anyone was worried about playing their copy of Dragon Age: Origins on their Xbox 360 whle this was present, you no longer need to worry.

We are still working on a fix the the issue introduced to those who did install the Title Update.

We are checking all versions of Return to Ostagar to ensure that there are no outstanding issues or the possibility of introducing new ones. Currently, we do not have an eta for the release of Return ot Ostagar on any platform.

When I have more details or information, I will let you know.

For the person that wanted the last update. Chris posted this like 10 hours ago if you missed it.

Well the wait is getting kind of ridiculous.

[lisakover]

Don't get upset over the wait the DLC is only 15-20 minutes long on Nightmare and thats if you read all the 3 codexes (there is a 4th but its just credits...)



King Cailins armour seems perfect for a strength rogue but for everyone else its lacking, the sword and shield however are fantastic and will boost sword and shield dps.



But overall the DLC is very lacking in substance, but at least it doesn't leave dangling plot threads like the whole Warden's Keep Avernus thing.

[OH-UP-THIS!]

And I presume you could put the DLC out harder faster better? be MY guest.

People put out Modules for NWN1/2 faster than this with more depth.

However I'm just saying overall the DLC is lacking and not worth getting worked up about, it wont radically change how you play your game except getting some early loot for a S&S/Rogue character.

Lol? Point out a spoiler in that, really please do, the only spoiler would be about getting the armour and weapons which is on the DLC description.

I havent played RTO yet, but there are no spoilers in lisakover's statement. It tells you already that you get all that stuff. Unless you want to consider the 15-20 minutes long the spoiler.

Ooh nothing like civility.

[Damus5]

its alright sA1nt, basically, Chris has updated saying that they are still working on fixing the bug, but are pretty sure that they have eliminated the possibility of there being any other bugs in the dlc. that helpful

Nothing much but waiting. RTO is delayed again due to bugs on Xbox.

guys, seriously give bioware a break, do you have any idea how difficult it would be to release a product on three separate platforms simultaneously...

Do they deserve a break? Chris Priestley posted immediately that the PC version will be coming out shortly on January 13, 2010 after the xbox version went live unexpectedly but decided to yanked it yet again for the third time after finding out new issues ergo the PC version (windows) is ready and is just waiting there lying cozy until xbox (windows) is certified for simultaneous release.

No they definitely don't. The whole "oh programming is so hard" B.S. excuse no longer flies here. Not after they release a patch to fix achievements and break not only the ones that weren't broken but breaks the specializations in the process. Then they don't even have the courtesy to post it in the 360 tech support boards? Nice customer service there Bioware. Hope you are enjoying my money more than I could have you know BUYING A GAME THAT WORKS!!!!!! ONE THAT THE PEOPLE WHO MADE IT GAVE A RAT'S ASS ABOUT!!!!!

Dude, calm down.  The game as a whole works, im still playing Dragon Age just fine, albeit without the dlc, but oh well, they pulled it down fast so they could minimize the damage.  Im not gonna stop enjoying this game thats, in my opinion, amazing over a dlc that is buggy and they just want to fix said bug and fix any other  problems that may arise.  Or would you rather them to have just left the dlc out there, ruin everyone's games and just not care?

[A2iztD sA1nt]

Thank you! I thought I was losing it for a minute. Much appreciated Alaskan and Damus .



. . . Not quite sure what the exact problem is, but seriously. I have enjoyed the hell out of this game, but maybe it's not BioWare's fault? They came out with the game, yes, but in the end. . .who is it that updates the systems the game is played on? Microsoft does XBox, Sony PS. It was sketchy from the beginning, and the other DL's came out okay. We're anticipating the next expansion, and RTO is so short from what I've glanced at the posts here. So why not just rush it and get it over with? Like Alastair, raised by dogs, pack of wild dogs. Who had a strange fondness for cheese. . . .or so I'm told. ^.^ Lol, sorry, I'm going. Thanks again guys!

"I don't blame him solely. Well... maybe I do. But that's because it was his name on the post that told me it was safe to assume that RtO would be available in a matter of hours. Sucks to be the spokesperson, but most spokespersons understand the levity of their job and take precautions, rather than throwing out information into the wind that could result in people feeling ripped-of"

This statement pretty much points the finger at him. And basically says he just kinda felt like telling us something so just threw it out there without actually being told that it was ok to give us the info. 

Douche. At least if you are going to try and backtrack on what you said make some effort to get rid of your earlier posts. 

Read that statement of mine that I quoted. The statement points the finger at him for what? What am I accusing Chris of? For making a post that he did, in fact, make?
Troll somebody else please. I haven't blamed Chris for anything that he isn't ABSOLUTELY guilty of.
Not in any of my posts, all of which I stand by, and all of which you've taken way too seriously and yet, still don't seen to comprehend.

Chris made a post on the 13th that directly resulted in me placing trust in a product that turned out to be a bust. Is it his fault solely? No, afterall he didn't make the product. BUT: Do I want him to address the problems? Yes.


^^^ That's for you. My way of saying goodbye. And I like how you make double posts to censor your words only to then spout out more profanities. You seem like you're very level-headed indeed.

Yes so you are blaming him directly for a post he would have been told was ok to put out. I am sure he isn't all powerful over what does and does not happen in DA. Someone would have realised that MS leaked the update and the DLC and alarm bells would have been going off that PC users were going to be even more annoyed. 

At that point he obviously decided without talking to anyone that it would be fine to say pc users could have the dlc as well 

Your original post and even your 2nd post make no reference to Bioware being to blame. You blame Chris. Which I keep saying is idiotic - because, funnily enough, it is. The majority of his statements would be reviewed by others before being posted, and he would be told what he can and cannot say. 

it wasn't until after I had a go at you that you started saying that you simply expected him to address the problems. Perhaps he is in his boss' ear every five minutes about the general whinging. Perhaps his boss told him to **** off because he was getting on his boss' nerves.

If they can't give us some kind of worthwhile update that they have made progress on the fix what is the point of him sending us updates every hour like most of you seem to want. Have they acknowledged the problem? Yes they have. DO they have a fix? Obviously not. What more can he do? Keep popping up every hour and saying, "We are working on it. We are at line 67 of the 32 million lines of code" perhaps?

I am level headed. However,  when it comes to people like you blaming a person for the information he was given authority to release; which turned out to be wrong - then I get annoyed. And oooh..profanities. Wash your eyes out with soap if you need to. 

I never said he didn't make the post. But is it fair to lay the blame for that post at his feet, as an employee of Bioware? I think not. All you really need to do is really be specific about where you are pointing the blame because in your posts you cannot decide whether it his fault or Biowares.

It is a bit hard to enjoy a game when a big part of it has been taken away. Why play when you can't even specialize in anything?
I'm quite annoyed at this point. I really don't blame him for being pissed off. I share his anger.

Good news! If you clear the cache on the 360, any specializations you unlock will remain unlocked. This is because Microsoft has removed the title update from LIVE. The catch is you have to unlock them again.

To clear your Xbox 360 cache:

- On the Dashboard, go to System Settings
- Select Memory
- Highlight your storage device and press Y for Device Options
- Select Clear Cache (if you don't have that option, press X, X, LB, RB, X, X)
- Say Yes when asked if you want to perform maintenance on your Xbox

This clears all title updates from your system. It will not delete your saves or DLC.

If you have old saves, load them back up and unlock those hard-to-get specializations, like Champion or Blood Mage or Arcane Warrior by replaying those sections. If you don't have any old saves, well, at least anything new you unlock will stay that way.

Chuck 'Walker Texas Ranger' Norris has got that permanantly locked. Bioware is currently trying to contact him that why it taking so long.

You can if you load up a prior save where you hadn't bought the book yet, and buy it again.

Trust me, I just went through reunlocked all the specializations I lost to the update.
