Why is the A.I. so static and boring?

Can you give me some more specifics? Everything I’ve seen today on streams has looked ok. Any specific creatures? What were they doing?

I finally got in touch with chat after waiting for 90+ minutes and then....

Guess I'll just give up for today, hopefully it will be fixed tomorrow been wanting to play for a long time :)

Ugh I’m sorry dnb not sure what happened there. We’re still working through these. I hope we’ll have ironed these out by tomorrow too.

Thanks for the reply, this is a complete guess on my part as I am by no means a game dev or anything of the sort, but I imagine it is loading the games assets in and toward the end of that load it looks at your graphics settings to tailor the last piece toward your settings. I would guess that at this last bit it pulls the graphics settings and at the same time pulls the audio settings. Probably wrong, but that's how I imagine it working lol

I think it's actually storing that stuff in origin, and then pulls all the settings (probably after the boot level) so I think that's probably spot on!

This is the problem I have had for 9 hours. At first, I got the typical choose your gender looping bug, now I have this. It's server side, /u/BioCamden. I can log into my friend's account on my PC and play, no problem. When he tries my account from his PC, he gets the same looping issue. Something in my cloud save data is corrupted.

Thank you for the additional info here vanilla, I’m sorry this is happening in yours. We are looking into it now.

That sucks. A lot of times folks forget there are people on the other end of their complaints. All the work is appreciated.

Thanks! There are a ton of us who would help but have no idea how, so best we can do is hope the people who know their stuff have the time to right the situation :)

They are all good people, working their butts off right meow.

It's been 9 hours and PC players cannot start a mission in-game. We load 95% and just stay there.

Yes the infinite loading is a known issue. I’m sorry this is occurring so frequently asdfholioo. We’re working on it now.

I'm on ps4, I noticed quite a few times with talking to some characters like zoe it sounds like they are talking through a can, same thing for the main character when talking to said person. Almost echoes a bit. Is really annoying.

Logged it. Will be fixed!

I can log in but i almost want to throw up when I play. The motion blur is so bad i cant even call it motion blur. Its like im seeing stuff in slow motion (like the old windows cursor that replicates itself on movement).

I gonna try to press forward and not look at the screen because its instant vomit material.

May want to adjust several of the graphics settings options as some of them seemed to indirectly improve this for me.

Best.

So, SO cool.

After everything that I've seen and heard of this game - and it is an utterly gorgeous game - the sound artists have done an unbelievable job; you da true MVPs.

Thank you!

yeah I've been trying to do this since it released earlier today. Restarted PC, tried different video drivers, repaired game, restarted router, still happening 100% of the time. Cycle goes as:

  • Bioware logo
  • Connecting to online services
  • Loading to 95%
  • Connection Problem: Unknown Error
  • Loading screen again
  • Error retrieving Anthem live service data
  • Loading to 95%

sometimes it crashes on the loading too, without showing the message. If it doesn't crash, it gets to a point where it just stops on "Connecting to Online Services"

System is a GTX1050, 8gb DDR4 and Nvidia drivers are 471.71. Played the closed alpha, it ran perfectly fine.

Thank you for the detailed info Ivnna, looks like the team just updated on this specific error internally. So yes they are aware. Seriously thanks again.

Infinite load screen (the one that gets stuck at 90%) is different from loading screen loop. People with the loading screen loop are unable to even enter the game. The game connects, goes into loading screen, loads 5% then instantly jumps to 100, and flashes a Connection Problem notice (error retrieving anthem online service data) and then restarts, over and over again. So far all of the people having this problem haven't even been able to get past that screen. Multiple videos and gifs of the issue were posted but not a single post/tweet acknowledging it.

Ok I just saw an update in the channel for this one and yes they’re seeing this widespread and looking into it now. Specifically the “Error retrieving Anthem live service data”. Thank you for your persistence on this one and addition info.

Hey u/biocamden would you mind getting back to me whenever y'all have information about the bug with leveling up? I'm having an issue with experience not leveling my character when I get back to fort Tarsis. As such I can't unlock another javelin

Is this happening after multiple missions or expeditions?

I've had the same issue. The friends I gave codes to can play, but not me. I looked at a lot of their responses to people's issues on various social channels and I haven't seen this one brought up as something they are aware of.

u/BioCamden Anything on this?

As far as I know yes this is part of the access and code problems we’re looking into for folks.

Can you say anything to the issue of Having access to the VIP demo(the site indicating its attached to my origin, and being able to download the game) Where it will display saying we do not have access to the VIP demo? This is also affecting the friend codes we shared.

Yes that is something that we’re actively looking into. Don’t have a fix at the moment.

I'm getting a VIP error while in game, but the website says I have access, my friend who I gave a code to can play, and if I try to redeem a code it says I already have access... but the game kicks me out saying I don't.

Anything I can try?

I sent a DM on twitter hours ago and haven't heard anything back, and have an open case through support as well but nothing yet... missed it when the 60+ min wait on live chat timed out and been waiting over an hour again :(

Double check the login and force close the application and restart. Not sure outside of that if there is anything you can do. But I know many others are having this problem too. We’re looking on our side.

I'm getting into a loop of "Connection Problem - Unknown Error", "Error retrieving Anthem live service data" and the 95% loading glitch. Been going for 9 hours now, 5 hours in the start menu alone. Any tips or updates on this? Please, I'm desperate, all my friends are playing and I've been trying the whole day and I don't know what to do, it's so frustrating.

If you’re on PC try killing the process from task manager and restarting origin. Not sure if that will fix but some folks have mentioned some success. This is something we’re still looking into.

Can you please comment on the resetting load screen loop as seen here? Or at least that say if its known and being looked into please? No one has acknowledged that this is a different issue from the other infinite loading screen issue yet and it seems to be affecting a large amount of people. Thank you.

I’m sorry Okbye, I am not sure if they are the same root cause as the infinite looping or not. They might be. I’ll pass it on to the internal channel.

Probably would have taken longer to find if we weren’t all stuck at login. Still cool though!

That is very very true. Thanks for your patience, it's basically defcon 1 over here. Massive amounts folks not going home to their families tonight in order to fix these issues.

The problem I'm noticing is that the audio settings are loaded after a little ways into the loading screen. So when I first launch the game the audio starts at 100% blasting my ears in my headset, and then about 40% into loading it jumps down to the % I have it set to in game.

Edit: Ok after testing multiple times, it is actually 100% audio levels until around 75-80% of the loading bar then instantly drops down to the % I have it set to.

Unfortunately I think it's loading your profile and then adjusting. I can look into it, and maybe just default to 50 on PC. I'll look into it for sure.
