What? All the .cas-files are still there - I double-checked that. I believe all the meshes and textures are compressed inside the 21 cas-files.

 

I don't remember what my free space was before the patch, so I can't check myself, but I think everything's still there.

However, the patch includes a "cas_01.cas"-file weighing in at 229,151 KB, compared to the original "cas_01.cas" at 1,151,591 KB.

 

We might be on to something here.

So I tried to downgrade the game by right-clicking the whole Origin folder, choosing Properties, Previous Version, and restoring a backup from a few hours ago. It seems to have worked as Origin has tried to patch the game again. Buuut. If I refuse to patch and disable auto-patching, the game won't start. If I set Origin to Offline, it will ask me to login to re-validate the game. If I go online again, I get an error message that Origin could not connect to the server.

No matter what I do the game is completely broken for me because either the patch will make it freeze or Origin won't let me play it.

EA, ORIGIN SUCKS REALLY REALLY REALLY HARD. Why can't I simply choose not to update my game???

 

all i can say is that i am able to play the game from origin, without even having to go offline, without the patch. however, i never patched it in the first place.

 

so the problem must be that some files are left behind or something like that ... maybe something in the registries or whatever.

Oh boy.  Some poor schmuck on reddit got REALLY bad luck.  i4JE0OE.png

 

Seems like the game is not taking into account many settings as that hair has been consolified to shiny plastic, eyes are missing the shine, and the face complexity slider has jump to the right end.

 

I don't think you could even create this old grandma at the character creator, so at least its unique now! :D

@fingerboxes.  My point was there are good reasons why some of us won't go the controller route.  You made it sound like we were just being silly because we wouldn't switch.  I never said that keyboard/mouse was the defining attribute for a PC game.  I used to have both a joystick and wheel system setup many, many moons ago.  It took awhile to get used to the keyboard and mouse combo, instead of just the straight keyboard/joystick or wheel.  None of those were painful to use for me and the controllers are.  Of course I was much younger and the "twitch" factor on most of those games was way lower.  I preordered DA:I for both my husband and myself and he won't even bother trying it with all the issues.  So that cash is probably going to be wasted.  If they can't get the problems under control and FIX the crappy k/m interface, then I'm not sure I'm going to bother finishing.  I've got 2500+ hours in Skyrim and can just wander back over there and add more. Or Fallout, or....choices, lots of choices.  I WANT to love this game.  I WANT to finish it.  My threshold for bs in games gets lower as I get older and I'm just hoping DA:I doesn't reach it before they fix it to the point where I'm happy to play it.

And how about them mobile phones? I remember when the tac2 was all the rage, and there sure is merit for m+kb in many type of games, including da:o, but not having a controller plugged to your pc is seriously just silly. 

 

I have no controller pluged into my PC. Why should I? I prefer playing with kb+m. If you're fine with a controller than use it. It's your decision to do so - not mine.

People complain that the patch is taking too long to come out. Then when it does come out, they complain that it didn't get enough QA and some new things are broken.

 

This forum really is an utter cesspool. I don't blame devs at all for avoiding this place like the plague. If it were up to me, I'd burn it to the ground.

 While i can understand and respect the point you are trying to make here, there is one major thing you neglect to mention and that is that the graphics bug the patch intruduced for PC is obvius and can be seen in matter of seconds after you start the game, so unless noebody tested the patch on settings higher than medium(or even low), this bug should be noticable in few minutes of testing to anyone that played the game on high/ultra settings before and thats not to much to ask right that such major easely identifable things dont make it past QA.

Is there any time frame for the XBone patch is as soon as possible mean sometime later today or a couple more days? It just seems odd that the XBone patch is the only left out right now.

Oh this is classic it's our fault that bioware didn't properly test this patch because we made demands of them and so they couldn't be bothered to do their jobs. I'm sorry but that's garbage at my job I don't get to blame the customer if I screw up because the rushing me it's my job to be able to overcome the fact that the rushing me and provide them with the desired service. Work the same way when I was in the military we didn't get to tell drill sergeant oh man we messed this up because you were rushing is drill this is your fault.

Mistakes happen things go wrong with patches all the time and that's okay as long as they're working to fix it but to try to pass the blame off on the people that were requesting in the past in the first place is BS.

Holy butt cockles, I had to sign in just to reply to this.  First off they did do testing on the patch it would not have been released otherwise.  I for one have no issues, no graphics degredation no crashes.  If it works on their pc and works on mine the problem is usually the customers pc.  It can be any number of things. When a new patch comes out for any game you always make sure you have the latest graphics driver and sound drivers.  Aside from that make sure you have the latest .net installed with patches, this is important because the code in the game is done with libraries from .net and others.  A company cannot account for everyones pc and the drivers and other software they have that may conflict with the game. Thats on you to keep your pc straight.

Seriously, texture is poor, and grass is horrible.
 
Please, fix quickly :( :( :(

I didn't think much of the patch since there were so many fixes the game needed. Actions speak louder than words.

 

Guess Bioware didn't disappoint, they're still on a downward spiral.

 

Congrats on that "Game of the Year" Award...

I actually thought that scar was a mistake to begin with. So, thanks Bioware!

 

Her hair shines now and grass appears ugly though...

I'm having the same problem.

I'm trying to repair the game and I'll see if it works.

It's possible the update changed the .exe file , and you'd need the old .exe file for the game to launch.

If you have a hard copy of the game and install offline you should be ok... but if you bought the digital version from Origin, then no - it will install with the new patch

 

:crying:

 

 

I doubt it, but I'm trying it right now just to make sure I've exhausted all avenues.

 

Good luck :( I tried a system restore. Was a no go.

Ah the classic if I don't have a problem, no one else does excuse.

 

Wonder why that never works...?

Agreed - Mike Laidlaw even admitted several weeks ago (November 18th) that this was a bug and said it would be fixed in the next patch - i.e. this one.

"Tactical view force-centering when switching party members is a bug and will be addressed in the next patch. Continuing to monitor feedback."

So BioWare, was 3 weeks not enough time to include a relatively simple, yet incredibly important bug-fix like this?

Wow I had not seen this before I thought this was just another backwards design decision. I guess that's what happens when I need 9% of communication between us and bioware is over either Twitter or reddit as opposed to official sites like I don't know the forums.

Then we have a misunderstanding. I was responding to people who fixate on the idea that using a controller makes you somehow not a 'PC gamer'.
 

 

I have no controller pluged into my PC. Why should I? I prefer playing with kb+m. If you're fine with a controller than use it. It's your decision to do so - not mine.

Yes, it is. It is also a fact that most games on PC *do not* support controllers, even when they are 'just console ports'. This is very limiting, and I was very happy that DA:I has good controller support (though it could be better, for example, non-xinput controls should still function when a controller is used, but they don't. This locks people who have controllers with extra buttons from using those buttons, for example for quicksave\quickload).
