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.

Just wanna let you know that there’s a lot of people reacting in a bad way to this problem from being very impatient. I assume it will go away as soon as the problem is fixed. I was very angry at first and took my heat out on a lot of people. I kind of regret it now.. now that I cooled off, you can be sure to see me in the future as a supporting long term fan

Thanks for that Inferntality, I know it’s maddening. Loading and login screens are pretty triggering. I appreciate your understanding here.

Are you guys and EA aware of the Friend Pass feature not working properly? The web site that is supposed to give us the codes is not working and the in-game links are not working aswell

Yes I believe Mike commented on that. Mixed results on that page right now.

I appreciate you checking in with us. As an Xbox user it's frustrating to know the demo is entirely dysfunctional on my system. It's getting late so it's hard to know if we should just give up at this point so it's good to know people are still working on it. I seriously hope yall stick with this project and make it functional, I've been a long term Bioware fan but I'm feeling really burned with how Andromeda was handled.

I love the game yall are creating and hope it makes it beyond this.

I hear you and appreciate your patience Nac.

it appears as if there is a minor issue on the actual demo page of the anthem website? attempting to view it just shows me only the footer of the page -- also, despite being told when the page was functioning that I have been given access on my EA account to the VIP demo via a friend referral, I still cannot seem to even make it past the login screen, telling me that I don't have access.

I was getting that myself earlier. My guess would be the load on EA help and EA.com right now is pretty high. I was able to load the pages eventually. Sorry I don’t have more info.

You know what would be nice? Being able to complete an expedition without it getting hung up at a freaking loading screen... or logging in.. in trying to join a friend.. some decent bug fixes for a near two month old build would be nice.. its totally souring my taste of the game so far

Yes infinite loading screens is I believe something the team is still looking into.

Think that one can be fixed by Customer Experience, they should be able to correct and update Xbox account associations.

I will take that as a we have no idea. I dont feel very much like a vip today.

More than likely that’s me coming across as having no idea, which is partially true. The team working into this is far better at this than I am, I just didn’t want to leave y’all high and dry when I said I wouldn’t. Just reinforcing that we know about the problems and frustrations and we’re doing what we can to address both.

Hey, the latest news is that PC is supposed to be able to play now, but I'm getting an infinite looping loading screen -> splash screens and cannot connect to live serivces error. Is there a way to fix this?

I believe infinite load screens is still something we’re looking into. I know some folks have had success waiting on loading screens. But I can’t speak to your specifics.

Wait! Before you go! When the "connecting to online servers" disappears on Xbox, do we need to restart the app, or is it still doing work in the background!

If you haven’t received an error message And it’s hanging/not loading my guess is that it’s probably worth a restart at that point, but that’s just a guess. Not sure Purp.

Just give us an eta on xbox. Should I even bother trying tonight? If you guys think the xbox issue is not going to be fixed tonight please tell us so we are not sitting here all night twiddling our thumbs.

I can’t say I have an eta Ryan, I’m sorry about that. Some of these live emerging issues aren’t something that we can estimate until we know for sure. Sorry I don’t have more on that.

Hey everybody, I just wanted to pop in during the thick of it and say sorry to those who haven’t been able to get in yet. We know many of you pre-ordered, took off work, or made plans with friends to play today and that time is valuable to you. We’re doing what we can, and our priority right now is to get everybody in.

Our Live team has been digging into it all day and will continue to do so. We’ve made progress but we know there are still issues and we’re still looking into them. I don’t have much more info, but felt it important to check in. Thanks for your patience so far.

Please make sure that you’re following the latest tweets from Mike Gamble for updates on issues (...

Looks like your game doesn't work with multiple videocard in a PC. I've went through a lot of hoops trying to be able to start the demo and was only able to after I disabled the rest of my videocards excluding the main one. Can you pass that to your technical department so me and other people with multiple videocard wouldn't need to disable them to play Anthem?

Will do Naurloss, we typically have SLI running here onsite with our test kits and it’s works ok. You may want to hit up EA Help for some tech support.

Camden, are you playing today? Do you want to squad up when the demo is live?

Hey! I hope I get a chance to. I’ll probably try to hop on random groups or play with my wife and some of my raiding buddies. But maybe I’ll see you in there?

Hey /r/AnthemTheGame,

The Demo is one day out (woot!) and we wanted to give everyone a central place to give their feedback for the demo specifically! This will allow the devs to more easily see and respond to your feedback and ensure that all answers regarding feedback on the demo can be easily seen by the community!

Also, in case you missed it, IGN streamed the Demo earlier today if you wanted to take a look at it before diving in! The thread for that is RIGHT HERE

As the Demo contains some important story beats, we've decided that its around that time to start to enforce our spoiler guidelines that we mentioned we established in our last ...

Thanks for this thread. As more folks play and hopefully filter into this thread I would LOVE if folks could get me feedback on some specific areas that my team is focused on:

  • Javelins (animations, “feel”, traversal).
  • Gear (cooldowns, balance, damage, usefulness).
  • Creatures (AI, “feel”, challenge).
  • Flight controls (specifically PC but console is helpful too).
  • Difficulty (damage, did you feel like you had to use a good mix of offensive/defensive strategy, challenge).
  • Weapons (favorite, least favorite, recoil, damage, etc).

Thank you!

That my good sir, is the real question! I can't decide between Interceptor and storm. I have always been an AoE caster player at heart no matter the game: WoW, Neverwinter, Elder Scrolls, you name it. But the Interceptor looks so flashy and cool, and I love the get in and get the hell out look of the play style. Send help, my mind is on overload lol.

So I’m actually going through a similar identity crisis. See I ALWAYS play the tank. WoW, Rift, Guild Wars, Division, Dragon Age, pffft you name it.

But that Interceptor... hoooooly sh*t.

I will say I feel like the team really captured the “all-powerful-wizard” power fantasy with the Storm. If that’s your normal go-to, you won’t be disappointed this time.

Holy crap... you responded, even though the answer is slightly disappointing.

I don’t think I have ever seen this before. Usually every response is specifically focused on PR. If it isn’t for the best, nothing is said. But you actually responded, even knowing that the answer isn’t something we may not be pleased with.

Listen, u/BioCamden, THIS is how you keep a healthy community. THIS is how you make a game. Not picking and choosing the parts that only benefit sales of the game, but telling us EXACTLY what the game entails so that we can make a justified purchase.

I despise EA. They’ve let me down far too many times with disdainful predatory practices and games of poor quality. They’ve single handedly killed Star Wars gaming.

I was interested in Anthem the moment I was aware of it, but of course, I saw the EA icon and immediately tagged out. However, BioWare is an integral part of my childhood. In an effort to at least st...

NexusPatriot, thank you so much. I hope that I can fill those big shoes you’ve laid out for me haha. I certainly will try. Saving this comment because at some point in the future I may want to look back and be reinvigorated or remind myself why I’m here. This is why. Thank you again.
