Here's the current list of the most reported and known issues affecting some players:

  3. An infinite loading screen when launching the game or entering an expedition.
  4. Inability to get past the Anthem title screen.
  5. Inability to access their Anthem VIP demo friends codes.

Resolved or Improved:

  1. Some Xbox One players are unable to access the Anthem VIP demo.

We will continue to update this thread with new information as it becomes available. Thank you for your patience.

Hey u/BenIrvo u/BioCamden
Should we expect improved performance in the full version or is this final?

There have been some optimizations since, I don’t have a good way to quantify that for you unfortunately...

Yesterday was rocky. The first day of our VIP demo weekend did not go exactly as we planned, and I want to share what happened.

We’ve been testing the entire game and platform for several months, but there were a few things we missed; real-world play frequently leads to unexpected issues. Before I share details on this and what we’re still facing, I want to dispel one comment we’ve seen: that we under-planned for server capacity. To ensure stability, we intended to manage our servers to match the player population as it grew. Overall, we had excess capacity prepared for population increases, and continue to do so. That said, what’s important is that all parts of the game work as designed to meet players’ needs, and that did not happen in the opening hours.

While there are a number of issues we dealt with yesterday, the three primary areas were:

  1. Platform connections – this was caused by the spike in players entering the game when we opened...

Dude , I just gotta say kudos for staying positive and giving feedback and such where you can. Despite the split between the community on their emotional states towards this demo, deep down everyone is still excited for this game (otherwise they wouldn't be here). So, thanks for doing what you can.

Thank you Eternio.

happened to some of us on PS4 that in the middle of the game all a sudden audio will be gone, including in game audio, chat audio, outside of game console audio

i have a 20+ mins of footage of dead silence

please take note of this, it could become something devastating later

We have multiple reports of this, we haven't been able repro on the main game build. Will keep testing.

No one else seems to be reporting this issue, but all of my cousins pc audio (discord, game, everything) cuts out as soon as she connects to EA servers. Reinstalled the game, changed countless settings in every related app, restarted pc. Nothing works. Very well cant play a game without hearing the game or your team.

I'm just about to go to sleep, but send me your full pc specs with soundcard, steps taken etc. and I'll have a look tomorrow!

Awesome. And what a fast reply holy cow! As a funny note, has anyone in the office played Halo Online? I think the banshee controls are spot on for PC flight. I don't know if that's useful information to reference but I thought it worth a mention. Best of luck over there!

Not sure! I haven't personally but it's always good to have reference of things people like.

Not sure if this helps or is already know , but the issues with the infinite loading screen for me are only on the initial attempt to join a mission/Freeplay/stronghold. After relaunching, Everything loads fine after until I’m back at Fort Tarsis. Hope this helps narrow down the issue!

Thank you Khaprel, any info helps!

Hey! Wanted to give my word about flight controls. I see most of the other PC users are also echoing my thoughts so that is a bit of a comfort.

 

I found that turning can be very disorienting since your camera doesn't automatically center quickly like it does in most other games, or on console with a joystick. Because the camera doesn't auto-center quickly, I have to manually drag my cursor back to center in order to slow my turn rate enough to go the direction I want. Could "flight auto-center speed" be a possible option? It might give people some more control. I hope this helps!

Yeah we've been discussing the auto-centering a lot. We'll continue to review demo feedback for PC flight controls as it comes it. Thank you for adding your thoughts Joe.

I was in fine, but it seemed like the loading bugs exponentially got worse. I could log in and play, then.. got a loading screen, fine, played for another hour, and then was hit with "Connection Problem" windows about 5 times before it forcefully disconnected me at the end of a mission. Now, trying to log in grants me a "Connection Issue: Internal Error" bug every time.

Running a GTX2080, 24GB DDR4, and a 6700K @ 4.0 ghz

... still one helluva game. Im excited, and glad we're seeing these issues now and not at launch. Your team is wonderful and I have high hopes for Anthem!

Awesome thanks for the follow-up, also great specs ;). There was a bunch of the internal errors going on about the same time you reported this. Hoping to clear this up.

Is it known that some of us just aren't getting the option to pick another javelin?

Yes, had this one myself unfortunately.
