Having a locked system with no modding support = better chance to push extra DLC at players.

Personally i dont mind the mouse and keyboard settings. Ive played around with keybindings and made it work. However the hold to fire feature is difficult to maintain on the PC while also trying to use hotkeyed abilities AND move around. Graphics seems very glitchy in areas even with drivers (gtx 980 x2 SLI). Wielding a melee knight enchanter on field while attempting to move is a chore.

Everything else is superb though, im loving the game so much. :)

FIX for those wanting the ability to zoom out further:  http://forum.cheaten...5563701#5563701

 

Apparently zoom is stored as a byte code and can be "cheated" to let you zoom out further..

 

Heads up Bioware.. if the guys at the CE forums can "fix" the zoom issue it should be a no brainer for the people who actually coded the game.

 

Are there any instructions for normal people to achieve this zoom hack?

I'd strongly advise you against using any third party application with this game, unless you want to be banned.
And frankly, if your game doesn't crash for now, you'll get a chance to experience a notorious CTD error yourself.
Yet this is only an advice, you're free to buy it and actually try it yourself.

Just WOW!

 

PLEASE, Bioware, tell me that the patch will change the tac camera to this:

With this camera and the mouse to move around, the game would be thousandfold better. Finally I could play it.

I believe console players have just as many problems as pc players, except CTDs. As a bonus, they have issues with all existing dlcs and game installation.

Though majority of negative feedbacks comes from CTDs, no doubt about it.

Say what?! I have no knowledge of how the zoom was achieved, so I asked. Was not aware that it requires 3rd party software.

I'm also very curious to know how I'm going to get banned fromm playing a single-player game that I bought and installed on my PC. Gosh, I hope no-one noticed that I was snooping around in the install folder the other day...last thing I want is to get in trouble with the Game Police!

It does not. Thousands of people are using the trainers to enhance their gaming experience with things like having more inventory, and more crafting items without having to use the silly Ping stuff. You know, the stuff that would normally have mods created by now in DA:O or DA2.

So basically script writers managed to do in 1 week, what Bioware refuses to comment or address, cause it's too difficult.....Amazing just amazing.....

I don't even know what to say anymore.....it's like they don't care at all....

Man, this is both exciting and depressing at the same time. Exciting because it shows the engine can be improved, depressing that modders can't work their magic. I've sidelined the game for now, waiting on a mythical PC patch that adjusts controls to something more fun, knowing that if this was a Bethesda game there would already be 3 or 4 mods out correcting the issues I have.

I think I might give cheat engines a try when I get home from thanksgiving holiday.

maybe they work on other things for the first patch too? maybe this tweek will cause problems in closed quarters or other areas (like borders of maps)? they never said it would be to difficult, again this drama

I think the biggest issue would be framerate drop with the camera being that high up. But I have not tried the trainer so I don't know what effect it has on framerates. 

 

However, if one is building a Tactical RPG, then these are some of the things one needs to keep in mind when creating the engine, and considering gameplay. 

 

Of course, if one's focus is to create a pseudo third person action MMO...then concerns for level of zoom in early development are minimal.

You know nothing shudsnMD Snow.  Theres been trainers available for DA:I since day one, you can change everything from the default camera zoom, to inquisition points, to perks, to inventory space, to god mode, to many other variables without affecting the .exe, trainers basically change the memory addresses the game loads in real time, there is no tampering, there is no "hacking", the idea that a trainer or cheatengine could get you banned is ridiculous.

This! This is what i want! Someone tell me how i can have this!

Just wait 6 months for EA to release the DLC pack for 10 dollars!

I'm so frustrated right now with the video game business :(

I happily played through DA 2 and ME 3 many times when all the naysayers including my brother were incredibly angry, because I enjoyed the gameplay of them so much. This time its my brother happily playing through the game on Xbox while I twiddle my thumbs figuratively and literally (when attempting to play).


I'm so confused about the "Made by PC gamer" video. It's downright bizarre they blatantly lied to everyone. That cute woman talking about shaking at Pax seemed so sincere and passionate I ate it all up.

Some general functions that would be very desirable to have in order to view a game as designed/optimized for PC rather than a console port:

 

 

- Ability to fully customize the UI+keybinds, including direct binding of mouse buttons and either extra rows of hotkeys or the ability to keybind spells and abilities directly from the ability tree screen.

 

- Full control of camera movement, including whether or not a key should be held down to move the camera.

 

- Smooth camera zoom (not stepwise) that goes all the way into first-person view and out to at least 3x as far away as the current max zoom.

 

- Inventory that displays items as icons in a grid with info+selection on mouseover+click, rather than the current scroll-based one where you only overview a handful of items at once and the centered one is selected. Makes it much harder than necessary to quickly overview and select what you want, not to mention that you can't sort items at all now except for moving some to valuables.

 

- Individual naming of save files rather than automatic area name + timestamp. I can't think of many games (if any at all) that won't let you name your saves that didn't have its design originate on consoles.

 

- Walk/run toggle. Been mentioned many times already and just seems like an oversight.

 

- Sheathe/draw weapon toggle rather than automated on attack/leaving combat like now.

 

- Mod support, mod support, mod support.

 

 

Addendums:

 

- Facial designs from the character creator exportable as files or simply like the code system in ME2 and 3 (though I realize the latter might be more challenging with the CC having so many grid-based options rather than only sliders)

This is the single best screenshot I've ever seen of DA:I.

 

This zoom and better controls would actually make this game go from "okay" to "great".

It's not actually workable yet aside from doing once-off screenshots like that.

True they didn't, but if you read Allan's posts from the dev team here, you would have realised that to the dev team the game is peachy, they don't' see ANY problem with PC controls or cameras....which is sad by itself. Which means as well that we probably will never see any patches correcting this. It's also been 2 weeks now with no information on what are they going to fix in patches. Unity had 2 patches first 2 weeks, Far Cry as well.

And I am sorry but this game is so broken on PC, with so many bugs without counting the UI/control/camera that if it was actually made by PC programmers they should have seen months ago they would need patches. And started working back then.So there is no excuse for not having COUPLE of patches by now not to mention 1.

Give us more longer hair options to all female character. Then i would be satisfied. Because right now i like one of all the hairstyles that exist. And i am thinking of doing all the races with different playthrough. Boring then to just use one hairstyle. Please. With best regard.

 

I think if there's one thing that spoils the look of your characters is the hair - visually its the worse aspect I've seen in the game. Fortunately I can run the game with most settings on Ultra, so thankfully don't get the plastic Lego hair  :D

 

I don't know what the devs/artists were thinking, from memory its not much better than DA:O and we're talking 2009 tech. While I realise being fully armored usually means wearing a Helmet, most people I know prefer opting to switch this off. I often choose to play female characters which makes this doubly sad - since it makes me want to play with the helmet on!  Then again you cant avoid seeing the ugly hair, as cutscenes display helmet off.. :lol:

 

Yeah needs a revamp and more choices of hair of course but only when that gets fixed. haha  :P

Easy now,

 

What would happen if the rush a patch and one of the files messes up everything. I had it with Sacred 2.  One file had the wrong name, so the european game could not be patched. You had to go into the folder, to remove a character in a name, or replace the file.  Meanwhile the company filed for bankrupcy.

I absolutely recognize the concerns of this community.

 

Recognizing it is not the same as acknowledging it. 69 pages of recognizing is not validation. You mentioned in an earlier post that your communication with people will amount to patches. You do not want to make statements than might be unreliable given the information you deal with is in flux. [This is different than being an outright liar - and I think the adults here are honest enough to recognize that difference.] You state that patches come out when they come out. In effect: this is a STFU communications policy you are touting in a situation where the next act of communication may be in months, years or never. And that has made me angry when I read it.

 

What you say next makes me angrier because it defends the developers as human beings but not the customers, to whom there is a legal, ethical and moral contract to deliver service. [communicated as STFU]

I am also asking that people please respect the developers who work for this company and understand that there are right and wrong ways to interact with your fellow human beings.

 

Followed by code: keep the noise to a dull roar (restricted to within) in this internal Bioware walled in forum. Is this the respect? Is it respectful not to tell my friends what a clusterfuk this is and to avoid it. How about my friends in the game industry and the media? Am I being emotional? I rather think the facts are what speak for themselves; and they suggest to me the avenue of respect is a two-way street built on communications. The long-time (long-suffering) participants here have my deepest respect. I cannot say I am impressed with the lack of dialoue by Bioware/devs/you/and nobody.

 

We are not animals to be looted.

 

Are you going to equate this video:

with respect to the developers? I wonder what you would think if these people actually told the truth? Would they get the STFU memo?  I mean it is clear to me that someone needs to lose their job as a consequence. But are consequences disrespectful?

 

Absolutely you have a right to voice concerns to the company as a customer, and there are a number of channels through which you can do that.

 

But heaven forbid voicing any complaint (it's not a concern - it is real time) to a friend at the Financial Times of London, to give him or her or them the scoop going on within this walled forum. Heaven forbid contact consumer groups and the media (hey, it is Christmas!) and provide them the scoop going on here. Heaven forbid saving someone the anguish being expressed here by ACTUAL CUSTOMERS. How about the Better Business Bureau? People would be interested because Bioware has displayed a disrespectful behaviour to human beings who have paid money for a product they have not received.... were duped into purchasing... are being cajoled to hang on and not return with all the vain flimsy promises that come without any kind of detail [Note the difference between your response here and the response I commend your co-worker, Allan, for making.]

 

Now you may or may not be speaking for the company. I have no idea who you are officially.  You never deigned us worthy enough of an introduction. But you are certainly lifting a curtain on an internal company culture of values, in my honest opinion. 

 

However, any sort of concerted campaign or call to arms that could result in the harassment of anyone (whether it's a dev or member of the public) is not appropriate. These aren't monsters or unfeeling automatons you are dealing with -- they are people, same as you. Going after someone's personal Twitter (or other) account is not the best or most appropriate way to voice these concerns.

 

You have to ask yourself: why has it come to that? Is this forum filled with nothing but haters?

I think the vast majority of people here feel otherwise about themselves. Not all of them hate you/Bioware. In fact, it takes a certain amount of patience and love to bring up the points that a great many have taken the time to detail. But they should... STFU apparently.

 

I know I am well behind in reading this forum and the STFU communications policy may have changed over the last 24 hours leading into the Long Weekend Thanksgiving (irony!) holiday. There are 30 more pages for me "to listen to" and I am doing it on my own time. Still I wanted, out of a sense of friendly guidance, point out what could be done and the consequences of what has been done. Like many here, I am hoping the information I share will lead to a better reaction in the future.

Ranting is ok, but overdoing it is counterproductive. They know what is going on.

 

Little we can do from our side but keep on posting errors.

 

We might get a merrit badge for pioneering.
