Tons of people have lost faith in this team and you havent communicated any information since the half assed loot patch.

We're here, just hard at work. I'm putting together the patch notes for the next update that contains a lot of fixes to issues being reported.

I'm also putting together a livestream for this Wednesday. Time isn't final yet, but we're aiming for 3pm CT.

This game is made by a different company and published by a different company. How on earth would it work the same way?

...in Anthem's case - there's NO way of making anyone a leader currently. Disband and reinvite.

It is, however, a very valid Quality of Life thing that would help a lot of people. Wrote it down to be sent through for future consideration.

When are we going to hear a response on Anthem damaging and/or bricking consoles?

We are aware of the issue and the team are actively looking into it, we will make a thread on the issue or respond further when we're able to do so.

Is it possible to upgrade standard to LoD through Origin? I have standard and premiere currently and am only given the option to purchase another entire copy of LoD.

I don't actually need premiere at the moment.

Could this be of any help to you possibly?

Who do I contact for account support? Just signed on and I'm back to level one from a 488. Everything Legendary and Masterwork gone. Can't access forge like day one

Sorry to hear about that Peashooter, if you've tried to log back in again and it's still the same - head on over to this link and have a chat with our support team.

Judging by your past reddit comments I think you're on PS4, so that link is for that platform - if you're on a different platform press 'go back' and alter the structure a little :)

16 channels for music is a lot!

I don't really know the nitty gritty of how this engine works, but could you offload music to a prerender, and then play it back on one channel as a submix? Maybe do a similar thing with the sound effects from ally javelins?

I dunno, sound in games is a foreign art to me, I come from a music production and radio production background, with a little film work, so I am sure you guys have considered all this stuff.

Still, I have spent more than a reasonable amount of time watching videos like this, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zF_jcrTCMsA

Not a terrible idea if the music was static, but it's actually completely dynamically controlled by the game, based on who you're fighting, who's targeting you, how many enemies, and what you are doing in combat, ie. headshot!

please fix the audio issue, as soon as i installed the game opened it, the audio on headphone mode on my asus strix raid dlx sound card is distorted, alot quieter and echoes. its horrible. even reinstalled windows to check and as soon as i installed and opened the game it happened again. changes the game makes to sound are permanent and couldnt resolve it anyhow

Couple things to try: - ensure all audio output devices are set to the same sample rate and bit depth (16/48 ideally) - turn off ALL 'enhancements' on your sound card (these vary by manufacturer but can cause issues) - try analog/wired solutions instead of USB/Bluetooth, they have also been causing issues.

Let me know!

Whoa - you may be on to something here. We will dig, thanks!

I was referring to the timed event like 'there will be giants'. I think you answered it. Would be nice for that news screen to give some news like that instead of website links. IMO. Thanks !

In that case yep, often found under Challenges > Combat - that news screen often showcases those events too (when they are happening) :)

Enjoy Freelancer!

Is there a way to upgrade crafting material to the next tier ie. 10x Uncommon >> 1x Rare?
If not do we know if that's something we can expect in the near-ish future?

No current functionality to allow for that aside from purchasing them via coin or farming, however, will forward the suggestion through to the team :)

A "great resource" would have been just to put markers in the game, but ok.

There's always room for improvement, and when it comes to waypoints, markers, and icons on the maps - they are being sent through to the team and they've acknowledged it too :)

How do we know when the freeplay events are happening? Are there dates ?

If you're referring to the world events, there isn't anything in the game that tells you where they are - they do happen randomly and pop up on the map when you're in close vicinity to them.

There are some great resources that can help you find them though such as this and ...

What happened to removing whites and greens from the lv 30 drop table that was supposed to be part of the inscription update

Rather than opting to delay that update we had decided to put it out without the changes made to whites and greens as they needed more testing.

I'm on Xbox One.

I had to resize my screen in the settings to fit my tv. Thanks for including that. But whenever I boot up the game, the screen is un-resized. If I go into Settings, it corrects itself. Like as soon as it's on "Settings", it fixes and I don't have to go to the actual setting.

Just wasn't sure if anyone was aware of the issue.

Understood Moak0, will forward this through to the team.

A whopping 3 questions answered. Great idea.

These threads exist as a community initiative to allow for other players to help each other out and get the most repeated questions answered without having individual threads about them on the subreddit. I'm just putting in some answers on my own volition as I have tried to do in nearly every "Ask Your Questions" megathread these past few weeks :)

Will forward this feedback through to the team, it's a fair bit better than the beta movement - still open for improvement though!

Whilst the team are aware of the requests for this and are still looking into possibilities around this, this is a feature that isn't currently within Anthem. Sorry Freelancer.

Understood, will write the feedback down and send it through :)
