Those of us who bought points ahead of time basically paid $5 for what is effectively a preorder. I don't know about where you guys all live, but my local Starbucks charges more than that for half of the drinks on their menu. And I'll probably get more lasting enjoyment out of RtO than out of a given single latté.

(Come to think of it, Starbucks could be considered sort of the coffee equivalent of Darkspawn. They infect an area, spreading rapidly... ahem. I digress.)

I mean, let's keep a little perspective: $5 isn't the end of the world. If you'd paid $500 to preorder some new device that got delayed, I could understand some outrage. But they've been pretty up-front with us now about what happened, why the delay, and what they're doing to address that in the future.

So sit back and relax, maybe with a caffeinated drink of some form from your local Omnipresent Overpriced Possibly-Evil Coffee Chain. We've voiced our concerns, they've owned up to the mistake and told us how they intend to address it. I'm fairly sure they'll get it out as soon as they can; it's not like they /don't/ want people buying it. :)


I try and stay away from Starbucks after seeing the effects of an accidently spilled regular cup of their coffee actually peel paint off a garage shop floor. Perfer Dunkin myself. Posted Image


But that's where all the flavor comes from!

Seriously though, if i need coffee (or pastries that aren't built from stone) I hit up Dunkin, if I need a latte I hit up Starbucks. Don't get a latte from Dunkin. Trust me.

And so Mechnic...you think that you will NEVER EVER be able to spend those points that it? That Bioware is a highway robber and that ..you're just out of luck??

Come on use your common sense.


You have the same armour so lets have
 some juggernaut enjoyment. Posted Image We can throw the differences aside and satisfy each other in an more intimate way. You do look very nice in that armour Posted Image  Me thinks that us as a team can wipe out the darkspawn and finish this game completely....never having to return to Ostegar!!! Posted Image


Well you know...my husband isn't known to like to share..you might have to ask him :D


Hold-on aren't you an "freed" woman? Why do you have to ask your husbands permission? Your posts in this forum do not show that you are controlled by your husband...on the contrary you seem to be very independant. So let's not put the blame on your husband but focus on what you are representing and what you are wishing for. You have been very assertive in your comments but yet you are very drawn back when someone calls you on it. So that tells me that you are very conservitve but want to explore different things and you are afraid of the response you would get from your peers. You should really listen to your inner self and go with that because that is basically what we are all built in our genes to do.


Ahh I'm caught :D  You've figured me out.  lol

So basically, you're saying that PC users have to wait further for RTO? We get 4 days of absolutely no communication, and then a big wall of text about the 360 (whose players are ALREADY enjoying the DLC we didn't even SEE), and no mention how when the hell we'll get the content many of us already paid for due to your misleading communication?
Paint me EXTREMELY disappointed.

Just release this damn DLC and do away with it. We all know that the PC one is ready to ship, and has been for days. PC users take a backseat to console users too often already.


If this is true, then I don't know why everyone who plays PC version isn't angry.


Because they might be required to turn in their Bioware fan club card. Posted Image

Keep up the good work Bioware.

I hope it comes out within the next few days. I'd like to finally finish my first play through of DA before Mass Effect 2 comes out. I know how slow M$ certification team is...so it could be another two weeks waiting.

Right now, I'm currently crippled as all my specilization classes are locked unfortunately. Its somewhat game breaking for me, especially for my Ranger. Which sucks really bad without the pets lol.


Deuce have you checked the tech forums for 360 users,  I think there might be some help there while you are waiting for the official bug fix to happen. :)

Technically I prolly am as well or fangirl if you so perfer Since I've enjoyed every Bioware game from BG on with the exception of Jade Empire. Still though when they drop the ball like they did with this I don't find fault in calling them on it.

I mean I saw a lot of butt kissing on the first few pages and it just bothered me so much I just skipped like 20 pages.


So after 4 days of silence a few folks ( me included) were made happy by the announcement....in order to express that happiness ..we said "thank you"....thats considered butt kissing?

So in your way of life you never, ever, ever say thank you to anyone for fear of being seen as a butt kisser?

How odd. :)

You realize there's an off topic forum for that sort of thing. Come to think of it, I think a mod mentioned that to you already a couple times.

*facepalm*

Hypocrisy.  Hypocrisy!
It could only be ironic if it she claimed you were posting off-topic humor when you hadn't been but she was in that exact post (doing so humorously, that is.)
It's hypocrisy when someone accuses you of doing something you yourself do.

I'm stuck in pedantic mode!  I think I need one of your, ahem (promise someone I wouldn't use that word anymore), Eggo's?

Well some folks operate like that yes. :)   Personally I tend to read forums and reviews before I buy.  Screenshots, gameplay videos ..yup I do all that, before I commit my cash. :)   I STILL haven't bought the points necessary for RTO.  hehe  and even when its released I am going to wait a day to see what happens.

I don't like jumping the gun, unless I am absolutely positive...I am doing the right thing. :)

Merin...I think possibly you need to realize that vocabulary isn't important to some folks, they don't look things up when mystified about the meaning of a word.    They go on through life that way..happily unaware. :)

Generally I am the same, but I liked this game enough I broke a promise I made taht I would not buy points for anything and threw down 20 dollars for points in November. I had the extra money and just said **** it and it has not bothered me :)

There you go again Feraele blindly defending an entity that you have never really experienced any "closeness" with. Just think about that for a second. You jumped in and defended a company that has screwed you over and even though you got ****ed there was no satisfaction you still want to  make excuses for them !! Please just LOOK at what has happened and try to accept that people have legitment complaints. Get off your high horse and out of your Juggernaut armour and start looking at the real concerns of most people. Why...can a game update be so fooked up  when the programmers have the original software and they are supposed to be professionals. Why? can anyone tell us why?
They the so-called professionals can't figure out their own program? What is wrong with this picture? Are they all "up in the night"? Can I get some more conjecture on this?

kinda reminds me of the old everquest days.. back in the 90s...still 12 years later they still cant make a game without all the mess ups.. actully its gotten alot worse over that past couple years..i have seen games taken off the market because they were so terrible with bugs and unfinished content. .... i just wish and hope that maybe one day after many years, i have waited for a awsome game such as this to come out...but without all the BS and broken promises...........and btw... EA is top of the list of unfinished games.

While I won't go in depth about the fanboys part (I think I covered it in quite an extensive way, anyway), I have to admit I was suprised too.
RtO is a simple matter of additional content. New cutscenes, New terrain, new speech, new items, but unless i'm horribly mistaken, it doesn't really tamper with the engine of the game. Again, unless i'm horribly mistaken, given the time, the resources and the talent, it's just a matter of adding new assets into the game via the toolset.

So, what can have gone so horribly wrong? How could an update made entirely of " new assets" and with no change in the engine go THIS MUCH wrong?
This is honestly a question I'd like to see answered. And no, I'm not holding my breath for it, but paint my curiosity piqued.


PS: Actyually the top of the list of infinished games and random messups is activision, not EA. EA has given up the seat of the evil overlord of gaming to them quite a while ago, and they did up the quality of their offerings quite radically.

Being a long time gamer and having been in a few closed betas along the way...bugs happen *s**t* happens..thats life.

They are taking steps to remedy what happened...as for "blindly defending".  

I know exactly what I am doing...I think, I reason...my solution is this:  don't get your knickers in a twist, its not worth it.   There are far more important and sad things that happen in life than a 5 dollar dlc.

As for horses I don't own one, but I would love to. :P

How do you know they can't figure out their own program.  Were you there....do you know that for a fact?  Nope and neither do I.   I read what they have to say when ..they have information to give, and am at this point willing to give the benefit of the doubt.

I do  not tend to go on forums and flame the hell out of everyone just because I didn't get my toy the day I wanted it.  Not my style..and to be honest ..its pretty silly.

I am here because I am interested ..in what people have to say, and what the developpers (when they have time) have to say...and most of all because I DO want to play RTO :)
And...here's my favorite saying:

"When life tosses you a lemon..make lemonade"  :P
