Has the bolded part below actually been confirmed by Bioware or did the author just assume it to be possible?

The customized save games can be automatically imported to your Xbox One, PS4, or PC via Origin — or downloaded and transferred via USB, if your console is offline.

Seems like they just assumed. An oft-repeated rumour, but one which is thus far unsubstantiated.

I don't believe Bioware has ever mentioned that officially.  All they've said on the subject is in regards to connecting to the Keep through the internet.

Ready or not, here come more #dragonagekeep invites!

[Fernando Melo]

More Keep invites are being sent out - be sure to check those Inbox & spam folders.  Good luck.

 

Edit:  ...or, what Roxy Ferret said.

i know who will not get ME

[Fernando Melo]

All done with this wave of invites - hopefully that got to some of you.  Better luck on next one to the rest.

 

Also, just to help with some common questions/conversations, in no particular order:

 

- DA Keep will launch before DAI.  Sometimes we will figuratively say 'month' or 'months' but at the end of the day, there is no exact date yet.  We have our target obviously which is in that timeframe, but the real date will be determined as we get closer to that target.  It will depend on many things including how our beta testing is going, and how/when in the DAI communications plan is the right time to talk about it, and ultimately how soon before DAI to open the doors to all.  Believe me, once we have a date locked we will definitely make that known.

 

- DA Keep is alive and well.  We've been letting in beta users since late Dec.  Purposefully, the numbers were very small to begin with.  That helped us ensure even bare basics like beta login and feedback mechanisms (critical for a successful beta) were all in place and working as intended.  The lower numbers also meant it was easier to collect more qualitative/verbose feedback on features, and react early enough to that.  As we get closer to launch, we can now let in more and more users with each wave.  Ultimately, as we get ready to open doors to all, we'll shift more into load testing where we will be letting in the largest waves of users.  

 

- Why do I still not have an invite?  I wish it was possible to just let everyone in, as it is awesome to see so many of you genuinely interested in participating.  But a few logistical reasons: 1) We don't select by date applied - so applying on day 1 does not guarantee you're first in.  2) Depending on what they are looking to test on any given wave, the team will select applicants that match that criteria (that could everything from level of experience with previous games, to what you wrote in your app).  3) From that group, the team then randomly picks out a rough target number of users for the wave.  Again, depends on what they want to test, and accounts for enough % of folks that may not respond in time. 4) Odds.  Even as we're adding more beta users and increasing the size of each wave, we continue to get more beta applications - so I would guesstimate that we are probably around 3-5% ratio of beta users to applicants.  This will continue to get better over time as we add more and more users, but that is a big factor in why so many have not yet received an invite - reality is that the majority have not, sadly.  Not yet anyway. 

 

- DA Keep does not use any files whatsoever.  There's no import (although we are still continuing to look at this, the priority remains with getting the rest in place and solid), and there is no file based export.  That means you don't copy any files around, or use a USB or anything like that.  You login to DAI, opt to sync from Keep and DAI grabs the data it needs, and you're done (you can actually logoff/disconnect at that point if you want, and can play rest of DAI with no further Keep logins needed until you want to start another game and import a new world in).

 

- "Lots"™ of choices.  Mark mentioned in an interview that there are over 300 so far, which is accurate, and we continue to add more at the request of the beta users so far.  Obviously (I think), not everything will be reflected in DAI.  The purpose of Keep is to capture your world as faithfully as we can for future use.  Before we launch we'll reveal more info on Keep, and as part of that I'd like to get you a better idea of what you can expect.  

 

 

(semi-legaleeze) Make a note of the time and date of this post - this info is correct as of 'right now'.  Plans do change though, and we may need to revise those statements over time, but for now that is where we are at. (/semi-legaleeze) 

[Amy326]

I got in to the Keep! Yay! So happy! Just letting all of you know that it is possible and it can happen to you! Just be patient and keep hope!

[Warden_of_all]

Thanks for the info. We really appreciate it.

[Stormy]

[CENIC]

I hope I get in soon so if there is anything I would have to request to be added to reflect my choices across my three worldstates I have the option to do that before launch
That's my biggest fear, really - that because I didn't get in on time, my personal worldstates will suffer for it.

(I take Dragon Age very seriously)

Congrats!

 

Before today, I think I'd seen maybe one or two "I got into Keep" posts. Today, I've seen half a dozen already.

 

Maybe they're ramping it up a bit?

So there will be less and less sad pandas as times gets closer to launch

[Tielis]

Will we be able to use the Keep to create save files to import into Dragon Age 2 in order to fix the Zevran romance bug?

No, as Fernando said it doesn't make files. It is also not for DA2, it is for inquisition, and later games.

[Tielis]

Yay.

[Amy326]

Congrats to everyone who made it in! I am very excited about getting in as well! Hopefully they can get the rest of everyone in soon! I have been waiting as long as everyone else and made it it is not impossible for you all. Keep hope!

[ArtemisMoons]

I always figured that some people just weren't saying they got in to avoid "WHAT IS IT LIKE?! DID X MATTER? OMG TELL ME EVERYTHING?". lol. 

But congrats to those who did get in, especially you Rogue (since I can see that you got in. haha)~

Thanks lol. I know I may seem a bit repetitive but I see people on here getting so down and feeling left out and it makes me sad because I felt the same way. I want them to know that it is possible and if someone like me got in they can too. That's all. I didn't want to seem annoying or anything. Sorry if I came off that way. :3

The way i think of it is, while it would be awesome to be able to be in the beta (and to be able to see the progress in the keep as it is developed), it would be equally as awesome to use the keep for the first time when its released. Because even though I really want to get my hands on it and start playing around with the world states, I know that its not finished yet, so i guess I might not be satisfied with my experience of it. Being able to use the keep once its released will probably be a better experience for me than being in the beta because I would know that the devs were confident that the keep was pretty much finished and ready for use, even with a few bugs that might have been missed.

So I guess what I'm trying to say is, even though I didn't get into the beta I'm happy that the devs have put forth the time, resources, and effort to make the keep, and can't wait to make my world state.
