alanschu Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 That's good. I have only once played through the DLC. (and only once through the main game anyways, and it was sans DLC). Although not everyone will have the DLC.
Monte Carlo Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 I've got Alistair in the Warden's Armour, Sten in the Juggernaut Armour and my character in the Dragon Armour and Bergen's Honour helm. I'm wondering if I'll find better armour anyplace else in the game. Am now level 14.
Monte Carlo Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 (edited) Strange bug - reloaded game (was logged in) and my Bergen's honour helm was gone, as was Morrigan's staff. However, there was a fresh tome of frozen waste (cheers! +3 STR) and the game told me that i'd finished the soldier's peak quest - a definite DLC bug i suspect. EDIT: So I re-loaded an old save, luckily DA does loads of saves for you, about one or two rooms previously and everything was restored. Edited November 14, 2009 by Monte Carlo
HoonDing Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 I finally made it to the Brazilian Forest. Also, maybe PC shouldn't have slept with Alistair. He became sappy overnight. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Hurlshort Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 I'm in the dwarven legion armor myself, Sten in the Dragon Armor, Alistair in something I can't remember, and I've got Leliana in Drake leathers.

Guest Slinky Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 There seem to be some bugs in DLC's, the guy who shows up at the campsite and gives the wardens keep quest suddenly came back there with an amnesia. I had done the quest already but he didn't think so and gave the option to buy and download the quest. Otherwise it worked, I just had to ignore him at the camp. But DA is really bug free concidering how big it is. I didn't have a single other quest bug and I had just and only one crash to desktop.

Same here. I have not encountered any bugs so far *knock on wood*, and only one odd crash, then I remembered to update my Nvidia drivers and all is well.

Humanoid Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 A bug that hits me a few times every play session is during movement, the game may abruptly switch to a different party member. Initially I thought it might have just been me fat-fingering something but I'd say not because the originally selected character would just continue running in the original direction and get split from the party (most usually sprinting into a wall or a rock or somesuch). This tends to happen when I move with the mouse instead of the keyboard, although I haven't specifically tried to reproduce it. L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G
Monte Carlo Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 I've had one CTD and the weird thingie described above. I agree it's very stable, I just make lots of saves in case a game gets corrupted.
HoonDing Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 (edited) It happened to me a few times that upon selecting a character after I had positioned him/her somewhere away from an enemy, the character would teleport right next to the enemy. Not fun when you're trying to kill a dragon. That said, I hope someone will make a mod that removes or changes the underwear armor female Dalish elves are wearing. It looks ridiculous.

Seriously, how often are you running around in underwear..... actually don't answer that. I don't want to know.

Gromnir Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 part of the issue with identifying bugs in da is that we don't know the rules. a majority o' the bugs in d&d crpgs is almost always related to incorrect implementation o' rulez. with da we don't know if something seeming wacky is broken on purpose or by accident. dagger damage is confirmed busted by bio, but am not sure if some o' the bows is working right as different bows is resulting in very odd damages. HA! Good Fun!

TheHarlequin Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 DA is not 'bug free'. It is however fairly well polished but certainly some areas clearly need work. What bugs would those be? Didn't we just discuss load/save bug issues 3 or 4 posts up? Path finding can be a bit buggy from time to time. Party AI not firing And folks are talking about CTD as well from time to time. Those are bugs, because its MOSTLY stable/polished does not = bug free. I love how one peep above says I've not encounted any bugs then in the next breath contrdicts themsevles and talks about CTD issues. Then its not bug free is it? Hint; NO modern game is 'bug free'. Stating so is pure ignorance.

Monte Carlo Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 ^ That's me, and if I'm honest your snarkiness is starting to grate. Had you considered that, prior to that original post, I had no issues with bugs (I didn't). The CTD was about five minutes before I posted that comment. Check it out, I am not a Bio fanboy by any stretch of the imagination but I do call it as I see it.
Guest Slinky Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 Hint; NO modern game is 'bug free'. Stating so is pure ignorance. Did you really take my post like that? I even told that I had one quest bug in the same post Chill out man.

Volourn Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 "Hint; NO modern game is 'bug free'. Stating so is pure ignorance. " HINT: NO game EVER, modern or otherwise, is bug free. That said, stating this concept repaedtly mainly in your alme attempt to continue bashing BIO like bugs ar eunique to them is hilariously entertaining. Let's put it this way for ya, DA is relkatively bug free compared to most otehr games including other BIO ones. Happy now? Grom is right, though, as it's not exactly to tell DA rule systems stuff is bugged or working as is since nobody but BIO knows how they are supposed to work 100%.

Raithe Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 So is that the gamer geek version of a zen koan? "If you don't notice a bug in a game and play on, does it count as a bug?" "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
Whipporwill Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 "The exception proves the rule" is one of those phrases that lots of people use without understanding it. What it means is that the existence of a general rule can be inferred by the existence of a specific exception to it. E.g. the description of the Warduck class says that the Warduck can invoke the "Be Awesome" power once per day. The descriptions of the Magic Rabbit and Sneakweasel classes don't mention the Be Awesome power. Since the exception proves the rule, the general rule must be that these other classes cannot use Be Awesome, and the kid wanting his Sneakweasel to Be Awesome like a Warduck needs to STFU.
