Yes we do have Javelin specific components for all Javelins :D

Thank you so much for your response. Tell Mike we thank him also. We love you guys, continue your hard work!

If it is at all possible, leave the frame rate uncapped so we can manually change our ps4s to 1080p. Then down the road you guys can add an official option in game. Please don’t capcthe frame rate. Thanks again! /u/biocamden

Thanks Gstone! Not sure if you already saw this but Mike did have a tweet about this one:

Any update on rubberbanding and lag issues like this?

Latest I have from (https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion/ANTHEM-VIP-Demo-Latest-Updates/td-p/7377294):

  • Rubber-banding during free roam and/or missions. - Mitigated (details below)

  • Potential User Workarounds & Details: Rubber Banding: We identified problems in our infrastructure that were causing some rubber banding. We have already made changes to our back end to improve the performance and will continue to do so over the weekend.

Hey are you aware that the respawning system is bugged? It'll countdown at the bottom of the screen, but you're stuck there until someone revives you. Also, in areas where you can't respawn, can we please get some kind of spectator camera?

Good feedback on the death screen stuff. Not sure what we'll be able to do here but we've heard a lot of feedback about it.

Correct!

u/Darokaz, u/BioCamden - I apologize if tagging you in a post is inappropriate, but in yesterday's thread, any kind of feedback on actual gameplay was more or less instantly buried.

  • Fort Tarsis: A minimap would be extremely helpful, both to help with flipping back and forth to the full map and the fact that the full map is a bit cluttered and (to me) was still easy to get turned around on.

  • Fort Tarsis: Many people have commented on the walk speed feeling slow. While I think it could be sped up a tad, and I do like that it feels much less powerful and swift than piloting our Javelin exosuits, the main problem to me is that the footstep sound effect is completely out of synch with the movement. It sounds like we're shuffling quickly instead of striding, or that we're supposed to be running/jogging while our movement speed seems indicative of a walk.

  • Exosuit Movement: I've piloted th...

No worries Pendrych I understand. I went ahead and grabbed all of this and threw it in an email to myself to parse through with the team. Thank you for taking the time to write this up.

Some points I can speak to:

  • For inscriptions for other Javelins on items, this is actually a string/icon bug. So if it says "Ranger Grenade" it is actually giving bonuses to Storm/Interceptor/Colossus Q or LB/L1. It just is confusing in this build.
  • We have since added more UI elements you may have seen in the latest Dev stream (team UI and team compass to indicate where they are). Not sure about a mini-map but I'm sure it's being discussed.
  • The 0% bonus to inscriptions is also a bug and not intended, these also should be giving various number bonuses but showing as 0% in the forge.

You've got some excellent points. I hope you enoyed playing!

This is awesome. Almost regret picking the Storm first. (Almost. Not quite. The Storm is amazing.) But I can't wait to try out the Interceptor when the full game gets released.

Currently sitting at work and hating that I won't get home in time to play more of the demo before it closes. You guys have been great at staying active with the community. That alone is 80% of the reason I got hyped for Anthem.

No ragrats. And thanks for the kind words.

I must go. My people need me.

This is awesome, love to see some really strong interceptor play.

Insider tip, the Interceptor ultimate leaves a lingering DoT attack (in the form of the Interceptor’s projection continuing to attack) on any creatures you hit. So in many cases the most effective overall DPS is to actually attack as many different enemies as you can. Obviously continuing to attack the same target still does tons of damage but it can be awesome to “share the love” haha.

you know... i was looking forward to playing colossus but once i did...i felt like a glass cannon rather than a tank.

he does STUPID damage but the lack of overshield means i get shredded... not being able to fire and use abilities with your shield active means i have to expose myself to get off an ability. iono i wanted to love this class but i keep getting rekt.

One thing you may have noticed is that once you start getting Colossus specific components they have MUCH more armor and shields than the universal components. This is an attempt to combat this exact problem. We are certainly looking at other ideas though. Thank you for the feedback.

Ok you're right, not the way to talk even if frustrated.

Thanks for the quick reply and it's obvious everyone's working on it overtime.

It's upsetting feeling like something shouldn't be pushed forward if it's not ready to deliver on certain promises. Regardless, not much can be done beyond what is.

*** Also for people having infinite loading issues: deleting the profile data in app storage and restarting seems to fix it. ***

Now how do I get the friend invite to work if I've linked my EA account... Maybe it's been resolved but I can't find the solution anywhere.

Edit: Disregard. The link worked. Thanks for being timely and responsive, and continuing the hard work.

Thanks Bill, I appreciate your reply and thank you. I’m really glad that you were able to get around some of the loading issues.

For the friend invite problems are you just not seeing the links show up on this page?

https://www.ea.com/games/anthem/anthem-demos/refer-a-friend

And you’ve logged into the same account that you’ve got linked? I would double check that too. If you need help verifying that your EA account is linked you can reach out to Customer Experience and they should be able to switch them if needed (...

Hey Valyris I’m not sure if we’re able to do anything like that. We are going to be granting a unique vinyl to everybody who was impacted this weekend. We’ll continue to try and fix these problems so people can get in and play. Thanks

u/biocamden hey man! Games great but idk if anyone's said this but I just ran into a glitch where enemies were invisible/ghosts. I'm not sure if the person I was with was dealing with the same issue (he was a rando) but it seemed like it bc we both were just kinda shooting and throwing attacks out randomly. We did manage to kill one (health and ammo dropped) so I'm not sure what was going on. Also super minor but some subtitles from a mission I left were stuck on the screen until I left tarsis. Overall though I'm having a ton of fun with the game. Thank you!

Thanks for the report KingNothing. I’ve seen something similar to this. I worked around it by dying a few times and then eventually they all loaded in properly.

Thanks for that answer /u/BioCamden, really hoping for 60 FPS on the PS4 pro!

But regarding the current demo build, is that unlocked frames at the moment? Is this how the game will be upon release or will it be locked down to 30fps?

Seems as certain points when the frames aren’t dropping, there above 30 and would just like to know if that was intended or not.

I’m unfortunately not sure vb0b0. I believe it’s unlocked atm, not sure about launch.

@BioCamden - thanks for taking to the time to come back to me, appreciated. I replied below to this post with the solution my son and I identified. Turns out must have been registration of the key on EA.COM to Anthem server backlog or something. AS you see my son noticed my key has not been claimed, despite my Origin App showed I had the demo, downloaded and could run it. I reclaimed the key, it registered and thus solved the issue. PS: All on the one and only account I have :)

Oh that’s awesome, glad you were able to get that working. Have fun Gkaruk

I really want to enjoy Anthem but it’s hard to get past the frame rate and performance issues I am experiencing on the Xbox One. Granted it is the base model but that doesn’t mean I should have a sub 30 FPS experience. I turned off motion blur and chromatic aberration too. It seems I am not alone and that other Xbox owners of various models experience this.

I guess my comment here is to make you aware of the issue and secondly, I want to ask if there are any plans to address or fix this issue for launch or once it launches?

Hey Platysaur, thanks for the report. We are definitely aware of the problem and will be looking into this ASAP.

Hey Bill, while I understand that you lost a bunch of time this weekend and you were hoping to play, it’s really not cool to talk to people like that.

This game has been in development for 7 years, hardly a “quick cash grab” my friend. Sorry for your problems.
