 what the title says, has anyone here a problem with the minimap, i played for 5 hours ,2 weeks ago and still today the image retention from the minimap can be viewed (it is not a burn in) , the point is that it is fading real slow. has anyone here a problem with the minimap too?
it is not the tv's fault as in all other games i cannot get image retention.
bad syntax , i know but i am lazy now

Nope. I have sidebar burn-in from too many 4:3 shows and games but nothing from playing DragonAge -- and I played it pretty much straight through.

sidebar burn in?  i am sorry dude!!!

I have both types of burn. It's the danger of having a 3 year old plasma TV. After watching hours of British Comedy and other classic 4:3 ratio gems, when a white screen comes up (intro screen to DA:O), I can see Sidebar Burn, Character Ring & Map Ring burn from DA:O (as it is the only game I've been playing for 3months). I'm surprised to see there is not a few other burns, but hey. I can still watch everything on it, and the burns not that bad unless the screen in majorly white.

this sucks, i just bought my HDTV 3 weeks ago. why do YOU watch 4/3 ratio? did not you know that this causes problems?

anyway my image retention is gone at 98%, aiam only seeing it cause i know ehre to look in a distance 5 cm from the tv, i am going to continue my ferelden adventure now.

If you bought your TV 3 weeks ago most new Plasmas have a "game mode". This mode shifts the pixels slightly so that burn in is prevented. Not sure if that would help with sidebar burn-in but it should definitely help for gaming. What sucks is that companies tend to use their own buzz words for this mode so you'll probably have to dig through the manual to figure out what "game mode" is.

I've played many many hours with no problems but I play in game mode and use the anti retention every hour or so to prevent burn in .

dude you are lucky! i played 3 hours and while the old IR had gone a new one frm the minimap again happened...

this is silly!!!!!

please make the hud transparent, this is silly! cannot enjoy my favorite game!!!!

[Riverg420]

Try useing your scrolling bar on a regular basis if you havent already .

[ScraplandIRL]

Yeah I use pixel shift, game mode and scrolling bar to avoid burn in on my Samsung 50" plasma.



There are a few games where I notice burn in can persist more than others. Borderlands is also a pain for it due to the bright white weapon hud etc...



I wish ALL games would allow you to change the opacity of the HUD in order to help combat this but alas no...

[ioannisdenton]

well do you ScraplandIRL have any heavy IR with dragon age? i want to play this game for hours but i get heavy IR and i am a bit afraid of burn in. my tv has everytime pixel woobling on, but the damn minimap is stronger that that. haha

ioannisdenton : if you read your TV manuel, it states not to use your plasma tv for more than 60 minutes straight for the first 15 hours, to prevent burn-in.



the real problem though, is why the hell you bought a plasma TV to game on ??

[ioannisdenton]

i am more than 300+ hours , plasmas are fine for gaming, the only game that gives me IR is dragon age...
