EDIT 2: Added some missing notes -

  • Armor bar segments now represent 200 armor instead of the previous 100 to improve readability at high armor values. This is a visual change only.
  • The option to quickplay strongholds was removed with the integration of the new Start of Expedition screen. This will be coming back in a future update. NOTE: this was disabled because it was putting players into story content they hadn't yet completed, such as the Heart of Rage.

EDIT: The Patch is now live!

If any of the devs are like your cats, then maybe go with the above suggestion and feed them coffee.

Hey man thanks for clarifying. I realize some people don't get the answer they like but I appreciate you posting here. I sure hope Atmos makes it in sometime, and if you are ever able to share news on that many of us will be checking into it.

Thanks, and enjoying Anthem using Windows Sonic for now. Appreciate your time.

Cool, thanks!

I know you're a busy guy, just pinging you as this is a huge issue effecting my buddy. He practically cannot play unless I'm on to be leader to access missions.

All I know is that it's a known issue, and being looked at. Sorry for the hassle, I know it sucks!

Any luck with this? :)

Yep, but I'm not sure what the communication plan is. I'll defer to them :)

Logitech speakers plugged into the motherboard I'm currently using headphones. I've called EA support been through a whole slew of workarounds and still no sound... I'm a little sad about it.

Cool - what kind of headphones? Wired? Can you screenshot me the output settings for both your speakers and headphones from the windows system panel?

  1. Click Start , and then click Control Panel.
  2. In Control Panel, click Hardware and Sound.
  3. Under Sound, click Manage audio devices.
  4. Should be able to see what's going on per device by opening each one

I'm hoping this might get some attention, even though a minority case, so pining u/biocamden -

I have a very low bandwidth connection when playing at home. Thankfully, mission and gameplay-wise, Anthem does well with this.

The problem, however, is with some loading screens, particularly when starting up the game, and when going from mission completion into the rewards gallery. My loading screen slowly hums along until 70% or so (during which time my bandwidth is pegged at ~80kB/s - slow, I know). When reaching that roughly 70% mark, I'm often kicked back to the "frostbite engine" game startup screen with an "Error loading pilot data". And then when trying to get back into the game, this same kick-out happens two to three more times, then I'm finally able to load into Tarsis.

Note - this issue does not occur at all when playing from a higher bandwidth connection.

Do you know if these day-one load screen updates have optimiz...

Unfortunately Ardram I don’t, that’s not really work my team (combat / creatures) has done so I am unfamiliar any potential bugs there.
