This is AMAZING!
Hey Jar. Any updates? I'm anxious to get back to actually playing.
lol. Yeah I thought I responded, sorry.
From Live Ops QA:
They aren't blocked. They can still complete the challenges by looking at the Challenge instead of the Journal and entering the Tomb when the Challenge itself appears complete. They will just see "Explore Tomb of ____" in the tracker on the top regardless of their Completion status for the Challenge.
The AR panel when they attempt to enter the tomb will also show the accurate status of the challenge and anything else they need to complete to be able to enter the Tomb.
Let me know if that works!
Read moreGreat, and you even seem like a cool guy. But it feels pretty awful to pre order Legion of Dawn, only to be shown I have to choose between actually playing early or getting access to my rewards despite paying for both. Just because I play on Xbox and not the PC Third Reich.
I try really hard not to join hate trains in games, but this stunt left an incredibly bad taste in my mouth.
Ah. That makes sense. That stuff is so far outside the average devs control - I wish I could do more to help!
Also, just so you know, turning sound ducking off in windows fixed most audio issues
Thank you, that's good to know.
So far the Path of exile devs have been a gold standard in the industry for me when it comes to engagement with the community. Be it in terms of transparency, response times or whatever you may think of.
Seeing how you, and all the other bioware devs, handle the launch and responses i'd say you are WELL up there and i love how engaging you guys and how appreciative of the feedback the community is giving.
Hats off to you guys.
Thanks!

Hey whoa now, I am a console gamer :)
we didn't see/couldn't anticipate
A lot of the things are hard to miss...That's part of the problem. Rare bugs, weird clunky things happen...but a lot of these tiny QoL things add up. It just makes it seem like no one tested the product.
We definitely tested. A lot.
We are only a few hundred people, so a lot of this stuff just doesn't happen inside our network, at a repro rate where we can catch it. Sucks but it's true.
Sorry just saw this.
Little concerned about this --

Listing day one patch as the 'fix' date for my problem. Don't want to have to wait a week for a game I've purchased three times over + a sub service just to play it on the actual release.
https://gyazo.com/3af5c9e5c2768b4490419e11152b1b8e
There we go. I have it completed.
Thank you! They are looking at specific accounts that have been affected - the patch note is for people to know it's a solved problem AFTER that point. We are for sure trying to fix affected folks NOW.
Thanks! And thanks for working on a wonderful game and being transparent with us!
Thanks for your patience!
I’ve got a jar of Bioware! I’ve got a jar of Bioware! *thump*
ha!
Jer, what happened to fixing framerate on Xb1x? I'm still dipping to like 20 just like in the demo.
We haven't heard to many reports specific to XB1X - can you send me your gamertag etc? Can you test at 1080p and see if that improves it?
Is there anything else running in the background, have you tried rebooting (I know sounds stupid, just trying to rule out stuff).
I just want to throw in my support. I'm experiencing several of the issues reported here, but I can still play. I do really hope the load time issues get fixed. Even understanding that it would be extremely difficult, I hope your team can find a way to reduce the number of load screens. This is really the thing that kills the experience for me. I still love the game and I will still be dumping hours into it. I am VERY excited for the day 1 patch, but I have to admit that it will decide if I keep playing or not.
Once again, thank you and your team for all your hard work. I believe this can be a great game, it's really close already. (Also buff ranger, not bc he needs it... I just play ranger)
Awesome - again not sure how much the loads are improved but there is a chorus of people noting this as a serious issue for them, so you can bet we will look at ways to reduce them entirely and speed them up.
Why pay for Q/A when we can charge 60 bucks for you guys to do it for us!! The future is now!
I think the answer is both unfortunately. The key thing is how fast we respond to you - and how patient you are willing to be with us as we work to make it better.
Thanks! And thanks for working on a wonderful game and being transparent with us!
Thanks!
FYI, Setting SSAO to "HBAO FULL" has a gigantic performance impact for some reason. /u/BiowareJer
You guys should really set a warning on that one. Drops my 2080ti about 45 fps in fort tarsis from 100.
Hahaha, I actually don't even know what that is. I will however, pass it on to the right people!
I might be just applying my own work standards. I actually hate how low "OK, let's push it to prod" has fallen these days. And I truly believe that this more than anything nullifies all the "heart and soul" so oftenly mentioned by dev-related people. Plus, getting older kind of taught me to give much more focus to the final result rather than to amount of effort.
It's sad that so many talented people are given such poor management/corporate constraints that they are forced to put their name on a product this... underwhelming. I hope you all are doing fine, but I really can't say "good job".
Hey that's fair. We agree with you that the constraints are difficult and sometimes unfair in this industry and day and age :)
I appreciate the support and good wishes.
/u/BioWareJer can you please also try to fix mine? I am stuck at the same mission but for me it is the sarcophugas within the Tomb of Yvenia that does not have any interaction button. Already completed the challenges and the three other tombs were fine.
My origin ID is: Stormi_Fireblade
I've been troubleshooting for more than four hours now, several re-installs, three chats with EA Support Members that couldn't help. Incredibly frustrating by now. I just need to have the "Explore Tomb of Yvenia" part checked but I cannot interact with the sarcophugas.
EDIT: Here are screenshots:

I'll add your ID to the slack channel, they are looking server side at solutions!
I, for one, really appreciate the hard work. It shows. The game is beautiful, plays well, and is a joy to play. Obviously, it has it's problems, but that's to be expected. I love that you guys are taking the time to communicate and work with us. Makes me really glad I bought into the game.
Thank you!
Everybody over at Bioware is my hero! I love what you guys are doing, both the game and the public relations, keep it up!
Thank you!
I am running off an HDD, I use my smaller SSD to host my OS and a few key programs i use daily. And while I know an SSD would absolutely help me out, I just don't have funds to invest in one. I love the game to bits, don't get me wrong, I just hate having to wait a little longer to be able to load within a reasonable time, or to play missions solo in order to get the story content and dialogue, as well as an understanding of an objective.
That is totally fair. I hope the day 1 patch resolves this for you!
