u/BioCamden I believe I’ve found a cause of 95% loading. My total freezing occurred directly after I tried to replay a mission grouped with my friend in squad. Keep trying to make a separate post but it’s being deleted.

My EA account is Maniacal_Ginger if you would like to take a look at its state / account details.

In a nutshell: playing fine , I complete all missions on my own> squad up and play dungeon fine, > attempt to assist friend with mission and suddenly I can’t log in for the rest of the demo. Definitely seems a big coincidence. I’d wager good money this is one cause of 95% freezing!!

I went from being able to play fairly reliably to not at all. I suspect something altered my account state so it couldn’t reload into a new expedition. Can you please confirm you’ve seen this :)

Unfortunately the poorly optimized PC performance goes beyond the flight controls and UI.

Also in regards to this article https://www.pcgamer.com/anthem-performance-and-settings/ . This sucks because I'm not the only one experience this so it isn't just related to my hardware which doesn't struggle to play other open world games like Destiny 2, the Witcher, The Division at max settings with at the lowest 60 fps. I had high hopes for Anthem because I am getting quite bored with Destiny 2 but if the game isn't optimized as it should be there's no real point in purch...

u/BioCamden the game (when I was able to play) looked, felt and sounded fantastic! My wife and daughter all pre-ordered and we are all super hyped!

I have just one suggestion; private Freeplay.

It is so hard to get a squad coordinated irl and the squad slots in an expedition fill up immediately in a public space, so private Freeplay is basically necessary to allow your mates to join you in a session in progress.

Cheers and keep up the great work!

Is there any news from you guys about improved performance? I would love to hear that this is all going to be a distant memory for the open beta and full release.

Can you kick it over to the designers to better optimize the game for PC? The game is poorly optimized which makes it seem like PC was an afterthought when developing the game.

It would be cool if you could use a pistol while using the shield. Maybe a component that lets you do this?

I’m bad at all this, but res is short for resurrect like repair ur teammates right? Because if so, I wasn’t able to repair ever when in my ult as an interceptor. I hope this becomes available during full release, that would make an interceptor so much more valuable to a team!

So when I'm playing Storm and receive loot that buffs an aspect of a Ranger, I can swap to Ranger to take advantage of that? I was under the impression that loot wasn't shared between Javelins. (Guess I'm not clear on how inventory works yet.)

Just an update on the demo. My daughter and I ran all the missions and stronghold together. We had a blast! The loading problems aside, (we were able to work around those with the exit and reload trick), the gameplay was super fun and we are looking forward to next weekend's demo! Love your passion for the game and support for the community! We definitely created some memorable experiences with more to come, I'm sure!

You bet! Would love to continue giving feedback however I can.

I’m also a solutions engineer for a DB company. Would love to better understand how your data flows, post launch.

We helped Pokémon Go launch and it’s doing quite well now, so I always like to ask companies about the games I like to play.

Anything that can make things go faster only helps us all in the community!

Take care and here’s to a great launch.

As a suggestion, I think the Colossus should also get to res while still holding the shield, would make him pretty good to have around.

I thought this was removed in the most recent build. Is this something we can expect at launch?

What’s the point of universal? Wouldn’t it be the obvious choice to pick the specific component?

Where did those 9.5s come from? Outrageous!

You, Ben, Mike, and all the others being so responsive inspires a lot of confidence that you guys care and will fix things - so we all appreciate it.

I do have a question are we maybe going to see an update for the demo integrating fixes for some of the issues we encountered this weekend? I know patching the client means you have to go through PlayStation Store and Xbox Store validation, which i don't imagine is cheap for the 24 hour validation.

u/BioCamden btw. Thanks for the javelins and listening to all the feedback. I know Anthem is going to get there!

I will be back for next weekend but I do hope we get an updated demo download too if some of these are version 0.0.0 related.

How the hell is it "super risky". You're flat out invincible. That's the literal opposite of risk. What a ridiculous mechanic, this needs to be removed before release.

How do you play Interceptor? She’s fast but Spark Dash and Detonating Strike aren’t doing much damage for me. I’m also lacking a way to knock flying enemies out of the air.

You're invincible when using any ult, so I wouln't worry about it being unsafe with the interceptor.

As an inteceptor main right now I treat ult as either massive crowd control, single target burst or the big "oh shit I'm about to die" button.
