Actually, people criticized it enough after the demo that they had to come assure us that those weren't even player animations.

It was always something specific to the spellbinders, and it's still in the game.
 
But these aren't issues that affect all or even the majority of players.

I don't doubt the obscene stuttering that some people are experiencing (we have videos of it), but I personally have no real performance complaints, and aside from various crashes and a few freezes over all that time, the game hasn't displayed any serious technical flaws (except that one time they turned all the shaders to crap for a couple days).

There are certainly any number of bugs in the game, but it's not right to imply that it's unplayable for everyone (though I'm not sure we have any idea of who has the potential to be affected).

 

 

I have see that, but I think they are the wizards you can fight in Hinterlands or on the Venatori's side. I don't remember to have seen that in the side of the Inquisition. Even if it was the case, the trailers are sometimes made with elements which aren't related with the game. For example, there is a trailer which show the Mage-Inquisitor fighting Erimond (the Tevinter mage of Adamant). However, in the game, It's Clarel who fight Erimond before the falling into the fade. That's why I usually don't make quick conclusion after seeing trailers.

 

To be perfectly honest I could not care less about the book animation. I have mentioned it to place in time and space armours that were cut from SinglePlayer. Now they are in MultiPlayer. This is the problem. Unique armours lost to the world of microtransactions and grind.

Meanwhile, Patch 2 continues to work incredibly well on Xbox One. Rock solid during gameplay with improved sound presence, as well as smoother cutscenes. No broken quests, no crashes, nothing at all "broken". Only mild audio delay here and there (jumping and map functions) and some occasional texture pop-in.

 

Maybe they should have delayed Patch 2 like they did for the XBone.

This! People blaming Bioware for their CPU's or GPU's overheating...

 

Good to see there's still people left in BSN with working brain.

Actually, you are both wrong

Basically this game has bugs in it's coding that is misallocating system resources, cpu/gpu ram, pagefile and vram. Which results in crashes, lag, CTD's etc due to high usage spikes across storage and processing media.

 

Too bad its working on my 4 years old Computer without lags and/or freezing.

 

Damn thats probably hurts you dude :/

You're just telling us that you have no problem, that you can play the game flawlessly and you're not actually playing it, prefering coming here to taunt people with problem?

 

You're not just mean, but a douchebag too : please go away, you're helping nothing here, just adding some benzin on the fire...

 

JPR out!

This is a good point. It shows how poorly optimized the game is.

 

check out the ppl's specs here. There are some monsterous rigs overheating, freezing, CTDs, black screen.. No one is saying it's a bad game. DAI is a great game... when you can run it.

Hardware isn't enough. Software also factors into it, and until people provide more information to help Bioware narrow down the root cause of these issues we will be waiting a long time before we can see substantive improvements to performance and stability.

I'm adding more benzin on fire so they can burn more quickly and painless.

I agree. The faster they can solve the issues, the better but the part that explaining the coding mess in that thread is what worries me.

monsterous rigs? Then do not buy a new GPU/CPU every year. Thats why I keep saying "my 4 years old computer" because most

young people loves to spend cash for a "cool looking" computer and then whining about every game.

 

Stick with old stuff: play normally, play forever. No less, no extreme.

don't get me wrong, I'm playing the game on my 7670 without problems but other computer we use at home has R9 270x and stutters like hell. It's not the ppl to blame here, companies release minimum requirements before their games and it's sort of a guarantee that if you are above these reqs, you will be fine.

 

Devs should fix it, not the ppl who likes to upgrade their system.

Yes some sofware can possibly affect the game : I personnaly launch always the game from origin after disabling it for the game.. I removed too RAPTR from AMD... This one is really bad for the game stability...

 

But hardware is a serious problem too : I have an AMD graphic card, and with the latest drivers, I really saw a huge improvement...

 

I changed too my HD, which was a old 500gb Seagate for a 1to WD blue with 64mo cache, and it has improved too my stability...

 

Now I have an occasionnal CTD after hours of game (memory leak, bad game cache refresh? idk) : I'm pretty happy but feel sorry for the others...

 

I hope it can help!

 

JPR out!

I also have R9 270 overclocked version in my computer, and everything else 3-4 years old parts. Works like a charm

 

thanks for honest comment

I'm running either vanilla or patch 1 (I don't know how to find out and can't remember) as it's the only stable release for me thus far. I tried patch 2 for a bit without any issues, but after hearing of problems didn't want to risk it so I reverted until they fix it entirely. 

 

I know that origin in game seemed to have a negative effect on my performance, shutting that off seemed to help. I've heard of some people experiencing problems with EVGA Precision X and the overlay. I personally could never get the overlay to work, but I don't really see any issues running Prec X with my fan profiles. The latest nVidia drivers (344.75 I think) oddly enough introduced stuttering/lag for me. 344.65 seems to be the most stable for my card at the moment when playing this game (Geforce GTX 660 2gb SC). 

 

I've only CTD'd about 3 times, maybe 4, but I think 3 over 5 playthroughs and 170ish hours. None of them have had any error messages either, so I'm not sure what the cause of it was exactly. 

 

The reason I mentioned software being a big issue is that someone mentioned earlier that he and his buddy had the exact same rigs, and one could play the game flawlessly the other is riddled with issues.

My low end system handles it as well. But, "..misallocating system resources, cpu/gpu ram, pagefile and vram.." is a valid point that can play havok with other PC gear.

 

For the fun, I fired up the Resource Monitor tool (Win 7) to see what was going on. I'm in Haven and I stopped walking to do this experiment. The RM tool shows that DAI has 32 threads and uses up 40-45% of my CPU (I have six cores). so, I then went back to the game and I hit the PAUSE key, switched back to the RM tool and the game still used 45-50% cpu....the game was put on PAUSE!!

 

So, while you and I can play the game, I can see why it won't on other gear.

Windows 7's Resource Monitor tool confirms the saw tooth graphs

Hi there, I am having a problem patching DAI through Origin. I have used the technical forum and EA, to no avail. Basically it tells me to update the game when I am online in Origin. If I click on the update button nothing happens, it won't respond at all. Apparently other pele are also having the problem. I can play the game offline, but I would like to update the game sometime. Just to confirm, I have been in touch with technical support. - they were not particularly helpful. Has anyone else had this problem.
Thanks

I put off installing the patches & hotfix on my W8.1, Intel i5-3320, 12GB, Intel HD Graphics 4000 system until I had a chance to clone my PC and test the patches to make sure they wouldn't cripple my game, since (not unreasonably I think) I'd rather have an unpatched game that actually runs - albeit on the lowest graphics settings - than a patched game that doesn't. Happily, the game still runs fine on my sub-prime system after upgrading. :)

I ran resource monitor once or twice as well and did notice that CPU usage on my system was highest when in the Main Menu, lol.  Seems counter-intuitive at best.

 

So far the game is running quite fine for me with no crashes and only one instance of the game going into slow motion for me, not stuttering but actual slow motion.  Other than that, seems to work reasonable given my aged GTX 580.

Why would pausing make a difference?  The game's still rendering while on pause.

Are you sure you do not have a graphics card other than Intel HD 4000? As far as I know it usually comes with a dynamic switchable graphics.

Do you a favor and go out more please, it's not that hard to check the technical forum :

 

Even PS4 users have troubles, like this one :

Or PS3 and XBOX360 users : http://forum.bioware...x-these-issues/

 

Denying other people problem will not help anyone, just your ego.

Even EA technical support staff don't ignore those people, fans should take example on them.

Stop ignoring other people pain, just becaue you're too lazy by staying here and make conclusion only on testemonie on this topic and go into a pointless argument "you're wrong and I'm right".

Dude their not ignoring their probally on vacation due to the Holidays ugh but still they at least someone to do a QUICK HOTFIX to make the game more stable for low end and high end PC's.

Read me again, I was not talking about Bioware staff but people here on this topic and I even quoted one of them. :rolleyes:
