The huge number of times I have heard banter among most of my party members tells me that something is very, very wrong with Vivienne in particular.  In several hours of play, in multiple locations and party configurations, I have heard her banter maybe 2-3 times.  The other party members won't go more than 5-10 minutes without saying something.

Hold on a second, THERE IS INTERACTIVE BANTER!?

I haven't had a single instance of this in my 90 hours of gameplay. How often does it happen? Do you have to do something special to trigger it?

I got one (the only one ever) where, during banter, Vivienne was berating Cole and I had the option to pick a side on a popup radial menu.  After 100+ hours.  Unfortunately I was running and jumping up a mountain at the time and somehow the conversation ended before I could weigh in.

How would you know if it exists? People are really...really adamant about what they do and do not know concerning a company they have no access to. The fact that they didn't have a fix 10 days ago hardly means there isn't one now.

Do you see the date? Do you also see that he never references if they have a fix, just that it's not in the first patch?

[AgenTBC]

Huh.  I didn't know there was interactive banter.  I haven't seen any in 150+ hours of play with basically every companion except Dorian.

 

I assume it's pretty rare.

[AgenTBC]

(On the other hand when it comes to non-interactive banter my party won't shut up sometimes.)

[Jurus]

Is this actually a serious question?

 

The date doesn't matter. It was explicitly stated there won't be a fix in the first patch. They couldn't even reproduce it, let alone test it. It simply can't be done in just a week's time.

 

As for the "never references if they have a fix", I don't know about you, but I assumed they didn't because of the "WE DO NOT HAVE A RELIABLE REPRO OR A FIX":

I was about to just fly through my first playthrough and do my completionist game when this was fixed, but now, before I got to the PoNR, I changed my audio settings from "headphones" to "night" and kind of toggle through everything but "headphones" and they started gabbing. Bull and Dorian seem to be having convo that they should've had in the beginning of the game so everyone has a lot of catching up to do! That and fast traveling through the war room worked like a charm.

[iheartbob]

Fast traveling through the war room helps me some, but I've noticed it's very hit or miss for the most part.

 

I will sometimes get several banters in an hour. And then other times I get maybe one in several hours.

I have also had Varic Solas banter repeat itself like 6-7 times saying the same thing. About the the Reception in Val, "They never seen Elves that where not serving them, or drawves for that matter" Yes yes, it was intresting the first 2 times you said it now stop talking about it.

[CrabbyCrackers]

i had viv and dorian repeat themselves if they were in the part together, i could never have them in same party or she will talk about how cory is a magister.

[ROBOWAR]

So in other words there not going to fix anything  and where all just crazy  and bugs are a figment of our imagination.?

[Shimmer_Gloom]

Just gunna pop in again to say I've had a huge improvement (playing on 360) by disconnecting from xbox live. Had to manually disconnect from wifi in the network menu.

I'm getting a banter every ten or so minutes! It's great! Hopefully this stays that way throughout. My previous playthrough had hardly any banters and not a single 'interactive' banter in the entire 76 hour run.

We will see. And hopefully there is communication on this issue soon.

[rpgfan321]

So go offline makes the banter to fire more frequently? I wonder if that will work on the PC... Hmmm......

[Shimmer_Gloom]

Been playing for about 4 hours now and get banter every ten minutes or so. It's changed the game dramatically lol.

PC is a totally different platform though. But it's worth a try!

[john-in-france]

General party banter seems to fire when I enter a new area, but I swop my party composition often. I think there is a bug on the party banter/convos though....they are happily talking about Blackwall and Josephine, but have never mentioned Cullen and Quizzy, nor has the convo where Dorian is supposed to say something. I was expecting Varric at least to say something...

 

144 hours in, and almost ready to go to the Arbor Wilds, so it is not due to lack of time/areas in game.

 

Reminds me of the Hawke/Fenris romance party banter bug in Legacy.

I have tried and worked for me

[Kinsz]

Frosbite engine is evil , kill it ..with fire preferably

[Rasp_]

I don't know if this has been noticed already, but I seem to have more banter in the Storm Coast and Forbidden Oasis, compared to other areas. I had almost nil banter at the Emerald Graves and Exalted plains for example. It happens more frequently if I have Dorian and Varric in the same party, or Varric with Cassandra. Sera also talks a bit, but its not nearly as often. I will give it a shot offline, but I can't see how that would make a difference tbh.

I get some here and there but most of the time there is silence... I only started looking into this forum again after I finished my fist play-through (to avoid spoilers and all that) and, I did find it odd that everyone where so quiet but I decided to finish the game first (130hrs or so) and look for issues later... after seeing this topic and other comments I see that I missed quite a lot of banter...

 

Now I decided that, instead of playing again and wonder if this/there is were I am losing banter...I will wait for a fix for this issue and other ones first

[SilentK]

I have tried and worked for me

I will give that a try as well. Keeping all fingers crossed!

Seconding this - I tried this last night, putting Origin in offline mode, and it seemed to have worked for me. At least, I got probably ten to 15 or so instances of banter over the course of 4 hours. Seems pretty good.

[Kinsz]

Wow that offline mode stuff actually works , i have had 5 banters in crestwood in less than an hour , even 3 way banters and  i didnt even use the war table to travel or read my codex or whatever else that was recommended.

I tried this a while ago. Never worked.

[Shadowwisher]

mine comes and goes still in bouts, i kinda got used to it. it has increased as i do more playthoughs. although i do wonder if the banters are suppose to have any sort of order to them, like they did in DA2
