I think I can guess the reason that they seem to be a little quieter than usual.  It shouldn't be considered that strange, that they are likely doing their jobs and then spending some time with their families for Christmas, which is two days away.  The last post they made in here was 8 days ago and in the PC Community concerns thread, 12 days ago.  Again, they aren't ignoring us.

 

Totally agree with you. I'm sure they work as they can on the patch, but they are workers, not slaves. It's logic, even if the game is sometimes buggy as hell, that they have a real life after the work and no 24/24 disponibility.

Everything here - everything - is system agnostic. It's not random crashes, it's not system-specific issues, graphic card issues, or down to personal preferences: every one of these is a bug, a glitch, and plain something not working in every game. Including yours.

 

This list alone is appalling, and we're not even getting into the per-customer issues of not being able to get the game to start or get it past a menu. 

 

Yup, YOUR game is bugged, too. Bugged to hell and back.

 

Yes, there are worse games, but that doesn't stop this game, right now, being more buggy than it should be and Bioware being way quieter than they should be.

 

I'm pretty sure DAO and DA2's bug lists at release were just as long, and Skyrim's bug list was longer.  This is nothing new or unprecedented.

So what ? Will you finally tell us what do you want to point out with that observation ? I still dont understand what you do here, if not troll everyone here who wait for a patch or for a temporary solution. Maybe you just want to tell us the awesome story of bugs in videogames' history ? Make a top 30 based on a bug importance scale ?

It's not in order, but here's a good video that talks about bugs and glitches in all sorts of games.  Fun ones too, like bricking cartages, stuff ruining save files and even ruining emulators:

Is there no more fix for the PS3 version?

[killtrocity]

Archie you dont speak for me

I love dragon age but the port to 360
Is not acceptable. Im not some loud minority.

Take my challenge -find a friend that has a 360. Play up to the hinterlands and compare your experience with dragon age origins and dai on your system

Seriously. Nobody has any right to dismiss the last gen issues until they've played the game on last gen. And it's obvious who hasn't, because the level of cognitive dissonance required for a person to play the last gen version and still write off the issues plaguing it, is astronomical

[killtrocity]

I'm pretty sure DAO and DA2's bug lists at release were just as long, and Skyrim's bug list was longer.  This is nothing new or unprecedented.

Skyrim's was longer, yes. But the ratio of game-breaking to amusing was much lower. In over 200 hours with Skyrim, I crashed once and had zero corrupted saves. There were a few unfinishable sidequests, and some oddities with freezing scripted events, all of which affected gameplay, but I was still able to play.  In 70 hours with DA:I, I've had four crashes and one corrupted save. And I'm one of the lucky ones, because some are unable to play at all due to the disc read error and persistent crashes.

I'm LOVING this game, but the last gen version was either:

1) Not beta tested or optimized AT ALL, or
2) Should not have been released in the first place due to system limitations

In either case, the ball is in Bioware's court, and up to this point they've chose to run out the clock

Agreed.  I don't think it's right for anyone to dismiss anyone else's issues here.

 

Edit: Not everyone can afford a PS4 or an XBox One or a computer upgrade, and it's more than fair if they ask for the same fixes as well.    

 

It isn't a Misery Contest, and that's getting a little old.  Many of us are having varying degrees of trouble, regardless of platform.  It looks like we all get patches mostly at the same time (sorry Xbone users that they delayed that) regardless of platform.  For the Xbone users, I hope they also get rolled into the next patches right along with the rest, without experiencing the same delay as they did for Patch 2.  

 

Doesn't this "Them vs Us"  "My Problem > Than Yours" bickering ever get tiresome?

Did you just suggest to a bunch of gamers that something isn't a contest?

In all seriousness, I agree with you.

Waw, what an argument... If it's less worst, you say that we can't criticize anything... are you serious ? xD If your recent-model car encounters a lot of technical issues, I'm curious to know how you would react if your mecanician tell you "don't complain and continue to use this car as it is, mister, it's still better than a Lada".

Clearly, all platforms have major issues. I am currently playing the PC-version of the game with my boyfriend. It looks better than the Xbox360-version, and it has music, banter and the dialouge wheel highlights, which is great because the lack of that keeps ruining my experience of the game on my console. But that doesn't mean there aren't crashes, the game suddenly freezing and other things that's annoying. The PC-version's companion AI is.... welll, it is way worse than on the Xbox. We have Solas and Sera running towards enemies as if they think they're melee-fighters. And Bull just stood there in the fire-wall I cast until he died. We turned off friendly fire after that.

Talking about AI. I usually level only my own character manually, and let all the companions auto-level. When I made an archer, I had to buy a respec for Varric, cause instead of uping his Bianca skill, he had been uping dual yield. Go figure that one out... O.o

Oh dear... It is funny in a sort of horrible kind of way...

Wow.  How the...what the...oh man.  

 

This is just weird and as Fae said, sadly funny.

 

You know, Cameron Lee talked a lot about Bianca (the weapon) during development.  To the point that he mentioned it in every Varric-based interview for awhile there.  Now, while I know he was dropping some cagey hints, he did mention the words "Varric's crossbow" a lot.  It got a little old.    I know Cameron Lee isn't the end-all-be-all guy, but you'd figure that the devs would make sure Varric's auto-level AI was programmed in for archery.  My guess is that since dual-wield is the first tree that comes up (you have to scroll to get to the others,) it defaults to that.  

 

Once again, my deep and abiding hatred of companion auto-leveling in BioWare games are justified.  It's been true since I played Baldur's Gate and all these years later, the auto-leveling system is still terrible.

My point is that it's not worth being "appalled" about, or acting like BioWare's relative quiet between patches is some grievous offense.  I'm allowed to speak my opinion, this thread doesn't just belong to the complainers and BioWare haters.

Oh hadn't you heard? This and the PC Community Concerns threads are only for the pure of heart who see Bioware for what it truly is. Anyone who says something remotely positive about Bioware or DA is immediately ostracized.

Nah, it's not such a big issue really, cause there are infinite respecs for around 380 ingame gold, so no worries there. It just stroke me as incredibly funny, since I had already tried out the other classes, including a dual yield rogue and that had never happened before. Code works in mysterious ways...

Dragon Age Origins is the best game of all Dragon Age. Now I'm waiting to be flamed and ostracized :>

[Sartoz]

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

Really?

I happened to be in the Chamtry, standing two feet in front of the war room door and the Resource Monitor shows me a 40-45% cpu usage. The scene is rendered 'cause it's only the bloody door in front of me. The scene is me and the door.

 

You are saying that re-rendering the rendered scene is good code? You are saying that rendering a static scene (ie: door and the Inquisitor's back) is good code that takes up to 45% CPU from my 6 cores? If you believe that I have a bridge in Alaska to sell to you.

 

BTW, I've programmed in assembler for mainframe comps as a "toddler". I just may know a thing or two.... not much.. but a thing or two.

DAO is good. The characters are 3D and the banter is magnetic.I also like DA2, except for the re-used caverns.

 

Of the two, story wise, DAO wins.

First of all, I would like you to quote the part of my post where I say you can't criticize anything. I can't remember writing any such thing.

 

Second - for those who are experiencing game-breaking bugs, I share your hope that they'll be patched out ASAP. But harping on about broken arms on a skeletal rig, lack of spell queuing, and lack of tactics options as "game breaking bugs" is, to use your car simile, the equivalent of buying a Bugatti Veyron and claiming it's worse than a Lada since it's got horrible gas mileage.

 

DA:I is miles better than I ever dared hope it would be, after the disaster that was DA2. Do some people have serious issues? Sure. But the vitriol aimed at Bioware in here is about as balanced as a mental patient on meth.

 

And for the guy who pointed out that I used two other EA titles as examples of horrible launces - yes: EA is the devil, and will probably morph into Skynet at some point in the future. Also, cause disastrous global warming, and kill all firstborn children. Bioware, however, managed to exceed my (admittedly low) expectations with DA:I, though - and I doubt that a few posts pointing out that DA:I is, overall, a good and (relatively) stable game will harm your chances of getting your bugs fixed.

Just no... Perhaps for you DAI is a Bugatti Vayron that (relatively) don't crash, but for some others people, mostly the one here, it's more like a lada with half a motor, a missing tire, and when you're turning left, you're just hoping not going right and crash...

 

We're happy for you if your expectation was so low that this unfinished PC product satisfy you, but some of us were apparently waiting for more : like completely mouse+kb integrated UI? you know, something we got even on DA2...

 

And as the last patch was a huge failure with the hotfix needed, and the corrections not really satisfying, personnaly I can understand the snarky remarks on this forum...

 

JPR out!
