I haven't had any problems tonight.

im bout to find out. Hopefully it didn't break anything. Since unlike the PC crowd.....i had been having a relatively good experience during my trial on xb1x. Ppl talking about a million load screens...and long 7 minute load screens, game crashes etc...is totally not what i've seen on xbox.
No player drops/dc, or no trouble completing strongholds after player drops/dc ?
If someone leaves the Stronghold there's no one to replace them because quickplay is disabled. No problems means no one has left.
Everything, including components and abilities can drop at Legendary.
Upped to GM1 forgot to do that.
Wait what....you have to do a mission to get the LoD items?
I do think the masterwork gearing is compelling and would be more compelling with some big event or dungeon... One could even say raid, to do.
I think the issue some people might have is that the loot that is the most build defining are components. Which have no cosmetic value at all.
I still really enjoy the core gameplay. I still go "Damn that was cool" when I'm in combat with a titan and I pull off some sick aerial maneuver to maximize damage output on weak points, all while dodging attacks. It really is a feeling like no other. Kinda like how Sea of Thieves doesn't have an equal when it comes to water physics and how that plays into sailing.
More bugs being reintroduced from the Day 8 patch does really suck though. Hopefully Bioware can just keep communicating and pushing out fixes.
I'm most certainly not buying the game right now. I'll wait out this month of premier and really see where the games at. I'm already intrigued at the potential of the game, don't fuck it up.

as a programmer, looking at the bug list in reddit is a nightmare, i don't think they have a QA system in place, they just literally made changes and launch it to production hoping it fixes things
Yeah the lack of any real visual/cosmetic variety in any part of the game besides the paint jobs/materials is what has me so disappointed.
Components and Abilities have 0 visual variance for obvious reasons and take up most of your gear slots.
No armor drops until they add the vanity stronghold stuff later.
Even Legendary guns are just base guns with a nicer skin and bonus abilities.
If even one of these things were tweaked to give me some meaningful visual variety with loot I would be happy.
There should never be a loot game where you don't run into instances where you see someone else wearing/using something cool looking
that piques your interest. That is just such a core element of loot games to me, going back decades to the first time I saw something like a Lavis Cannon in PSO.
Missed this earlier, sorry. You claim them from the Vanity store itself. Under the Reward Tab.
Had a guy leave after the second chest of Tyrant Mine. The rest of us stayed and finished it faster on GM1 than I've ever done before, even with a full squad. Got 3 MW's from it.
I'm sure these issues were placed in a JIRA backlog somewhere... Probably titled "Future Sprints" or "Someday..."
Which is fine. But if everyone leaves but you or you and another the outcome isn't typically that generous. The intended behavior is to fill the spots, which was removed because they messed something up (again).
Yes it's stupid. You have to do a mission for Prospero and unlock his store. I had to go on the Anthem subreddit to find a link to EA's help page stating that the items don't unlock until the 22nd. What's also stupid are the items are only good around level 7-9... Something that you can get to extremely fast in these ten hours. I had to stop playing so I can get to enjoy the weapons.
Yeah, this is definitely my biggest gripe with the loot. It's like if in Diablo your build was comprised mostly of rings / gems.
They had 7 years to make this, and people were expecting a patch they shit out in 7 days to work out? I got finger wagged for questioning whether they'd ever had a real human being test their game (happy/"critical" path critical bugs, the terrible UX of their menus, the overall wretchedness of fort Tarsis, etc) as if these issues are something we should expect out of a goddamn $60 game.
I wonder how big their backlog is. How many issues are going to be NFA- We have no resources to fix. What a mess.
Well there's $20 extra down the drain...man I feel like such a dope for pre ordering this and esp. that edition.

wasn't it reported that another team would be handling after launch support?
Man I'm about to give up for a while on this one. This just runs like total shit on my PC. I can't even play this fucking thing in 1080p without major stutters and it looks terrible. Destiny 2 runs perfectly on my rig so it should be capable of handing this. The frequent loading and load times in general are incredibly annoying. Super long cutscenes with a story that seriously feels phoned in. I'm watching some cutscene right now and there's a ton of gunshots going off in the background for no reason lol. I can't tell if it's a bug or part of the game. This shit just seems very sloppy and buggy and it sucks because there's a lot of things I really think could be good. I'm sorry to dog pile on it but it's been a long time since I've had such a negative first impression about a game I thought I'd really like.
looks like another farming method found or was this intended

Someone needs to call Bioware out on the Legion of Dawn bullshit. The fact that your content is good for around level 7-9 and doesn't unlock until the 22nd. Who's played this game more than two hours and isn't at that point already? I'm level nine already. At least scale it to your level.
Honestly that's better than just nerfing everything else. I'm glad they've incentivized completion of their toughest content, even if it nukes the longevity of the endgame. Better that than having chest farming or respawn cheesing as the best methods.
Performance was better. Most noticeably in Fort Tarsis but freeplay felt a lot more solid too. The shorter loads (respawning, getting tethered in mission, forge, etc.) seemed faster. I timed loading into the game and loading into freeplay which seem to be the longest but infrequent loads, and those were the same as before the day one patch.
Also one of the Legion of Dawn items is locked to the ranger only... Damn this is by far the worst upgraded edition I've ever purchased.
I'm avoiding the broken strongholds by simply uninstalling the game. That patch fucked my frame rate to hell and I'm not having any fun anyway. Better luck next time, Bioware, if you don't get PapEA'd. This industry needs to learn how to make games again, because this "oops we fucked it up entirely and somehow forgot to make an actual game over the past six years and hundred million dollars but we promise it'll be fine someday" shit just doesn't work for me.
The Warframe dev's are masters at fixing spaghetti codes. I am not a programmer but fixing 1 bug and cause 3 other to pop up can mean stuff are being piled on top of each other like janga bricks.
This is definitely not something you want to unearth 1 day before you have to "launch" the game...
I'd say that's a lot better than just having everyone ignore bosses. Getting a guaranteed masterwork is good motivation.
Whatever was in the new patch on PC has made the game completely unplayable for me. Previously it ran kinda poor (40-70 fps) but it worked. Now it stutters excessively every second. It's completely unworkable. It's so bad that I thought something was wrong with my PC so I loaded up some other games and they all worked normally.
Anyone else have this? GTX 1060

yup,but is it what they have intended? or is it a bug, so it will be fixed later, they haven't said anything yet
I've had entire groups leave pre-patch. The slots were never filled.
So just to be clear, the day one patch for Xbox kills HDR? Oh Brother. Any chance they fix it by Fri, I mean come on.
Hopefully it'll stay this way until I reach endgame. So many meta have come and gone while I'm leveling to reach endgame.
Then that's an issue. I've always had them filled because that's what quickplay does.
HDR is one of the minor problems they have at the moment i think.
I've had a relatively smooth experience on XB1. A couple crashes to menu, couple infinite load glitches. Had to install an update midway through. I'm enjoying it well enough for now. We'll see.
If you're playing on PC and have access to LoD through that edition you should be able to redeem it now. I was able to on the 15th.
You don't have to play any missions to redeem them or access the store. Just go into the map/menu and selected featured tab. You should then be able to open the store by doing as the prompt says at the bottom. On PC that is to press and hold ESC. After that you can go to rewards and redeem them.
