    PC DAO player are now able to dowload the most recent update to DAO and it is the biggest update.

    Console players will be able to update their DAO game in the near future, coming soon, as soon as Sony and $Soft certify the console patch.

    Yeppie for console players as it fixes many of the bugs that the PC players had fixes from Bioware or work arounds developed by other players.

    Has anyone updated their game to the newest patch on PC or XBox 360?

    Sony is going the conserative route again taking longer to certify the patch. Last time Microsoft beat Sony to the punch their release had to be pulled and retested. Yet it was still released before Sony.

    I'm just hoping for a release some times by next week. It would be nice if the release was tomorrow or first thing Saturday morning. One can only hope!

    So are you experiencing crashing like every other PC gamer who has downloaded the new patch? I know noticed that most of the people who have been complaining have high end systems.

    After downloading the newest patch for DAO on the PS3 I did some testing last night to see what was improved for game play and general bug issues I previously experienced.

    First, I no longer have to pause the game and un-pause the game to remove the floating integers on top of the characters.
    Second, the damage from a dagger increased from 10.8 to 12.5 with STR at 12 and DEX at 17.
    Third, graphics – I’m not sure if this was improved or not but the game looks a little better now on my PS3.
    Forth, the PS3 was previously known for the game slowing down for no reason and sometimes freezing out of no where. Last night my game did not slow down. In fact it played smoother than it ever has.

    So far I like the newest patch for DAO. It fixed my biggest complaint with the game and made game play more enjoyable, which is a BIG bonus. There are a few more bugs out there I’m sure but the majority of them that was upsetting me are now fixed.

    The one bug I know that I would like to see fixed in their next patch would be the crossbow and bow DEX bug. On the PS3 and Xbox 360 these two weapons are not properly calculating DEX to increase the damage.

    Thank you Bioware for this patch. Because you patch DAO to my expectations you will have one PS3 DA2 purchase.
