Morning all, diving back in today with the Tomb in my rear-view. Hoping the final 6-8 hours of the game are actually fun again now!

Oh nice, so this is even less a problem as it was before
Ran the Tyran Mine from start to finish 3 times, not getting quest completion.... anybody has a work around ?
Frostbite is awful, but it's not like these problems (long load times, texture stream issues) haven't been present in each of BioWare's UE3 games as well.
The movement in Fort Tarsis is so comically awful that it makes me wonder if they just ported over the movement from, say, Mirror's Edge and took away the run and jump buttons. I mean, if there's anything Frostbite is supposed to be good at, isn't it first person movement?
Maybe it's meant to be like this? Like it'll actually count when the assignments gets assigned. Otherwise everyone will be done with everything and the way will just be always open for them. Thank you lads for your patience and info
The only bad challenge is the Yvenia one. Do you just fly around to look for chests? I only found two so far, this shit isn't easy to see thanks to the low FoV. Also what are collectibles? The stuff you see on the walls sometimes where you have to press X?
Edit: Ok I found multiple videos on YT showing the locations. All good.

Copllectibles are lore entry. Check near the tomb entrance there's a lot of them. For the chest, the chest from world event also count so make sure you're the one opening those.
why does it not credit others? it would be like Destiny awarding only the player who opens the chest first at Public Events l
I'm guessing because you can't play Freeplay without grouping up online (even if they're on the other side of the map, which they usually are). Dumb design.
Eh I doubt it's been in full production for more than 2 years or so, since ME:A's release. Destiny, Division, Warframe all had tons of growing pains -- this is the price of BioWare coming to the party five years late.
I was expecting this (they suggested as much in a previous tweet), but it's a little disappointing to be confirmed. Hopefully they add performance options for Pro/X in the future, because the demo for me was really solid performance wise.
Happy enough with a smooth 30, but I'd have liked the opportunity to unlock the framerate.
You get the rewards from opening the chest, it just doesn't credit you for the quest if you're not the one doing the opening. Pretty sure I read this is fixed in the real day 1 (22nd) patch.
I had this happen too. Also a weird thing where you reload but you are still shooting and then it actual reloads and you still hear the shooting sound.
ME:A was made by a totally different studio. This games been in production since 2012, and Dragon Age: Inquisiton was released in 2014 so even if you assume the entire studio was working on that it's still over 4 years of work here.
I just finished the tomb quest. I could immediately entered 2 of the 4 tombs because I've completed the tasks.
Man, If the loading screens are the same on the 22nd this game will have lots of unhappy people
Yes, I know. It just seems like it's not even there compared to the demo. It's likely just a perception issue in Tarsis, since in the demo I was barely able to stay at even 50fps there.
There are changing it in the full release to count for everyone in a group. However, if you really want to cheese it solo, here's the really easy way to do it (this is going to work on GM3 as well until they nerf it)...
As soon as you leave Tarsis, go directly to the right. Drop off the side and keep going along the top of the lower portion of the right wall. There is always a chest just sitting there. Until others start catching on anyway.

Talked myself out of it last night, but going from 10 hour trial to buying a month of premiere, I've just got to have more despite the myriad issues. Telling myself it's worth a few quid a day (even if progress won't carry over to ps4 where I'm playing).
I'll watch it, and I'll likely agree with most of what he says, even if I'm not nearly as angered by it. And I'll still be playing long after he's had all his clicks and offering his opinion on the next game.
Lots of that seems spot-on and fair, but I think the voice acting, characters and how they deliver, in the context of a multiplayer loot game, is good to decent. They don't lack a spark of life for me, they seem every bit as alive as any game I've played recently - and animation absolutely does bring life to them, they've believable and natural, despite not being ultra-realistic... it's odd, it somehow helps them leapfrog the uncanny valley for me. But then if you're only 8 hours in and if you've been interacting with the characters between missions, that's early days.
He's not at all, but to be fair I only really got the idea that he was championing the game's monetisation model vs predatory stuff he'd experienced in games like The Division.
He didn't have much negative to say about Apex, but we'll never know. As it is, the game is in a state where nobody should be reviewing it too positively, despite how much fun it can be at times. He's got plenty to work with when it comes to being able to tear the game to shreds if he wants to, and as we know, there's very little middle ground when it comes to what works for him and his audience.

100% it'll be there. It's not a bug, it's the engine unfortunately
Anyone who plays on PC with mouse & keyboard and also has access to a joypad tell me if they have a massive discrepancy between the two in terms of movement in Tarsis? With mouse it's horrible, slow, jerky, but on joypad it's definitely smoother and acceptable. Just want to know if others can reproduce that before I make a bug report.
whoa, that's incredible. Is it real, it looks too good.Now look at this wicked cosplay!!
No.
Ugh. I know direct comparison is generally in poor taste, but how does Destiny manage to respawn you seamlessly and close to the area where you died when you're out in patrol? Frostbite was a mistake.

I tried the closed beta with mouse and keyboard, flying and swimming was horrible. With the pad on the full game I have no problem.
yeah i'm starting to get annoyed with the loading haha. died doing a world event solo and it took a minute for the load and i ended up nowhere near the event.
there are so many things i like about this game but like others have said some of this shit will start to get annoying

I wrote all that on Day 1, which was... Thursday night to Friday?
Faye, Haluk, and Dax are pretty good, thought the latter doesn't get a ton to do. Characters outside of that drop down in to that weird spot I talk about in the impressions. Somewhat similar to Bethesda NPCs. Like, the difference between Owen and Faye, or say... Zoe is night and day.
The Division 2 will do well. It's delivering more of what people loved. You'll see.
It is a real cosplay mate. Look:

Huh? The Division has legitimately one of the mildest monetization models in the industry. It's barely there, it's cosmetic only and the game showers you with tons and tons of ingame cosmetics + premium currency to buy the premium ones.
You're right. But they're probably talking about how The Division has lootbox, while Anthem has not.
Some people apparently had a glitch where it didn't track shit you'd done prior to unlocking the quest. For others (like me) the quest came up and the thing was 90% complete already.
