Two observations:

1) No mention of the random loading bug in Unreal Engine that causes loading times to be 10x longer than it should be.



Use MassAffinity. Problem solved.

It dynamically sets ME2 to one core and then back.

I for one would like to thank Bioware for releasing a patch. I'm a single core user and I appreciate any sort of support. I'm glad they realise they are folks who love the game who don't have fancy rigs. The only real issue I've had is the video stuttering/freezing on loading screens, and it'll be nice to play the game with all of it's content intact as opposed to green screens.



Mass Effect to infinity and beyond!

Nothing in there about the floating to the ceiling bug.  Unless I missing it.

There are more pressing matters than Eyefinity support.

I might be crazy but I almost feel as if ME2 has been getting stealth patches.



The collision detection issues ("character hovering in mid-air") seem to have decreased, and even the center audio issues seem to have gone away.

What about fixes for levitating on boxes and not being able to get off or getting stuck in walls? What about freezing fixes? What about fixes for when a husk punches you and Shep gets stuck facing to the left so that the aiming cursor does not match up with his gun? Most of the "fixes" in the patch aren't even common problems.


Not common problems? And the guy above you that said "useless due to minor fixs?" Pffft. Widescreen -- that's important. And, just because you aren't experiencing crashing doesn't meant it's not common. It's all too common for a lot of ME/ME2 PC customers. Anything that says "crash fix" in it is always the most important for any program on a computer. Once that stops -- then make it pretty.

For some reason in both games if I use a 7800 GT card I can run the game (but then most of my newer games won't run). If I use my GT220 card I get random -- no rhyme-or-reason crashes in both games.

I've been having some luck with 186.34 drivers on my 220 -- but, it still crashes my computer. And, I know way too many people running single processors that are lower than 3.0 Ghz on cards that are the 4XXX series. And they never even knew Mass Effect had a Tech Support forum =P

These crashes have to stop. Especially since we pay for a game that EA says "we are just paying to play not to own" like some weird off-line MMO. Fine, stonewall honest people -- because copyrights and protections never hurt pirates (they bypass them and can actually play) -- but at least let me (and other paying customers) play the game that I dropped money into without having to save every minute and having a heart-attack every time my computer shuts-off. I guess I'm saying thank-you -- but don't sign-off on that just yet =P

Looks like it's at least another month until I can finish the game, then... hey, BioWare, I'd really appreciate it if you fixed your journal/codex/scripting/quest completion bugs for once in a game. Just once.

I love how some people are trashing bioware because of some of these bugs. It is damn hard for a QA team to find every problem. Just consider ourselves lucky that Bioware is the type of developer that cares enough to release patches. I may be biased since I've not had a single issue with the game except one random crash in three playthroughs. However I have no doubt that any issue that some experience will be corrected.

Aside the Single Core CPU problems, the Journal bug regarding Ish on Omega (does not complete) or the Sniper Zoom when using abilities outside of zoom and the infamous "oh hey, let's walk on air through the level" bug, it's stable and the ability and airwalk bug are avoidable.



Abilities & Sniper Zoom, don't use them with Sniper Rifle equipped.

Airwalk, avoid the rail of stairs.

I do use MassAffinity. It doesn't mean I should have to.

I never had the ish bug it worked fine for me or the sniper zoom one. It appears that the bugs seem to be limited to a certain brand or type of video card or just completely random. However IMO despite the few bugs the game has it is still a great game IMO.

I hear ya, I use to say the same thing back in the day when Mass Effect 1 ran on a vastly inferior machine of mine (wait 'till you upgrade or switch-out your set-up and it runs worse -- it'll boggle the mind). Then I waited a year for one patch -- and another for the final -- only to never have the problem of erroneous crashes fixed.

Something in the Mass Effect series just causes horrible incompatibilty in a lot of systems. I figure maybe when the QA team tests these games they test it on a completely "empty" machine. That's just an assumption -- but, I'm not buying a computer that only has Mass Effect and ME2 installed on it =P too expensive. Though, I love these games and do fantisize about it =D

But more then that assumption I'm a firm beleiver it's the DRM. Any kind of SecruRom causes problems with multiple programs (that's not an assumption. It almost acts like a virus -- telling your computer what to do, and it installs to your system32 directory) -- making it impossible to locked down the conflicting software. Like I said, I can't just have a clean hardrive save XP and Mass Effect. I.E. an old game called Arcanum. They never could get it to stop crashing on a customer's PC until the final patch that remove the SecuRom and it's "checks" from the game and your computer. I don't blame the developers. I'll leave it at that.

Well, besides the blatant floating Shepherd. The loss of all achievements. The buggy IFF/Reaper quests that has caused my game to as of yet recover. It is a good game, but cmon what kind of QA dept do they have? Couple fresh students recenlty graduated from VGU(Video Game University) that can't beleive they get paid to play videogames.

What about the crashing many have reported on 64-bit win 7? There were a couple of threads on the issue and I am sure there are a number of us with high capacity machines on which the game keeps crashing. Can we expect this issue to be resolved in the patch?

The patch is definitely welcome news and I look forward to downloading it so I that I can finally play this game.



I realize that the box says that those playing on single core machines are below the minimum specifications. But if anything, it shows that single core computers aren't as outdated as you might think. Lots of us are still holding on to them, and may not necessarily have any extra cash lying around to get a new PC, and notably, a lot of single core users are what made ME1 so successful in the first place. It's something to think about as Bioware devs begin working on the next installment in this trilogy.

I have purchased the game but have yet to play it due to the FOV issues presented with Eyefinity causing the 2D menus to become huge and off the screen. This was a similar issue in Dragon Age and they patched it relatively quickly. I am disappointed that I still cannot play this game properly, will the Eyefinity patch be separate or will we have to wait even longer for this easy fix?
