Hey Maclimes or anyone really, do you have a source for this? I've never heard of it before.
Maybe some developer clarification *sacrifices puppies to the BioWare Gods*
I have looked and looked, and can't find it. Clearly, I have lost my mind. Removed that line from the OP. Sorry about that, guys.
The whole "companions disappear while mounted" thing is apparently a product of my fevered brain. My apologies.
This is awesome, thanks a whole bunch.
It might be worth adding that the release date is the 7th for US but it's the 10th for the UK, NZ and AUS.
people down here get pretty angry at game stores when they show up on our 7th and they can't have the game.
Yeah that's very true and I think the release date in mainland Europe is the 9th of October (actually I thought that was the Aussie date too but guess not 
). I still sigh every time the trailers say fall 2014 because it's fall down here in Aus right now. A small language thing I know but it's true for a whole hemisphere ya know 
Edit: the official site says October 9th for Australia and October 10th for New Zealand... I don't understand why they'd be a day apart but apparently we are.

Enh it's alright. You've written down a bucket load of information for us to read and know what's right. This thread does deserve a sticky.
I think I read somewhere yesterday that the devs confirmed the red halla is actually meant to be a red hart, instead. If anyone can confirm this the first post should be updated.

Interesting. I always thought it was October 7 for the US and October 9 here in Europe AND the rest of the World. Well October 7 to October 10: 4 Days full of "Release Day Server Emergency Maintenance" Messages all over the Place. Will be a funny week then.
Well I hope not but its still EA we are talking about. But seriously: 3 Different Release Dates could mean (If they do it right): Less People = Less (possible) Server Crashes = Less Problems on the specific Release Day while Downloading all that GB's of Data.
We will see the truth on October 9

I sent a polite PM to Alan asking about a sticky for the thread. Dont know whether he received it or not.
Glad the companions dont vanish when mounted. It would interfere with the realism
Just a correction about something you mention (This is from twitter):
@Mike_Laidlaw @BioMarkDarrah Hi! Why Red Halla from DLC looks like a brown moose / reindeer? Can you tell me? Please.
@IlidanDA @Wild_Morrigan @BioMarkDarrah It’s supposed to be called a Red Hart, not a Halla. I’ll get origin folks to fix it.
@Mike_Laidlaw @Wild_Morrigan @BioMarkDarrah Now it makes sense. Thanks! "Red Hart Halla" - name from Origin
Its a shame that the companions dissapear, but I'll probably still use a mount from time to time. Just as long as I won't miss out on too much banter, I'll be fine with it.

Thanks for that. That's what I was thinking of.

It haven't been confirmed that they do. OP even removed it from his posts.
Although, I expect them to do so for various technically reasons.

Ah okay!
Anyone else think this should be pinned?
I think it should be pinned.
I do not have twitter account, can someone ask the developers whether there will be dual wielding warriors, or strength based rogues with dual swords ? (brofist)

They're not answering those questions yet.
They are in Alpha, why shouldn't they ? They said the are in a middle of cutting some content, so they should have nailed down the gameplay and only polish till the release. They obviously know all the combat styles, they even know all the skills and talents, but the silence on their part means there is no dual swords warriors and they are afraid to say it.

Maybe because of attitudes like this! If they tell people everything they want to know then it's going to open the floodgates for more questions.
Just because the devs don't feel like telling you something does not mean that it's not in the game, it just means wait and see.

Actually you can not be more far from truth. I asked around 6-7 twitter qustions. Three got answered with yes, three were not at all. Those which are positive obviously are in the game, those which were ignored were not part of the game. The questions they ignored were about Nevarra, Free Marches, whether there will be 8 different voices, and about dual wielding warriors. Strange coincidence.

I think we should drop this stupid tangent, the devs do what they want when they want. They don't adhere to our whims.
Now, let's sacrifice puppies for a sticky!

Indeed, because the devs see every Tweet someone throws at them.
Also, two of those questions have already been answered previously. They might feel it to be a waste of time to answer those questions.
But clearly developers give out every possible tidbit of information before the game launches. I am going to assume that if they don't say who the main antagonist is, that there actually is none.
Hey gang! There's a number of unsourced facts in the original post. I know they're accurate, but I can't find all the sources. If anyone can locate where some of this stuff was announced/talked about, I'd really appreciate it! Thanks!
The 'will DAI require permanent internet connection' was resolved in this thread:
http://forum.bioware...play/?bioware=1
Linked that one already.
Also Bond and your clone Kam. This is a thread to provide info about what we already know along with links to where it was said. Not to talk about Dual Weilding and what the developers choose to say. We don't want this thread to de-rail and be locked as it is a very useful one.
