I've just bought this game today, and have already encountered two very annoying bugs.
First, I bought a PC retail copy on DVD because I didn't want to spend hours trying to download a 10GB game. When I tried to install the game from DVD, Origin installed just fine, but whenever I tried to install the game itself it would abort after about 2 minutes with an unspecified error. I tried clearing temp files, restarting, etc, but I couldn't get the game to install from the DVD. I eventually gave up and downloaded the game through Origin and it installed just fine, 3 hours and 10GB later...
Second, the game is having problem playing audio through my headphones on my laptop. I get audio through my headphones in the menu and the intro movie, but as soon as the playable part of the game starts, my headphones stop playing audio, and it comes out through my laptop speakers instead. Unplugging my headphones and plugging them back in will get me sound through my headphones for 1 second, then it switches back to the laptop speakers.
My headphones are set as default in my audio drivers. I can play other games, watch movies, youtube videos, play music, etc, with my headphones with no problems. I've tried playing for a while, saving, quitting the game and restarting. Once again, audio plays fine through my headphones in the menu, but as soon as I click to start the game my headphones go dead and the sound comes out through my laptop speakers instead. This makes this game more or less useless to me, I'm trying to play in an area where others don't want to overhear me playing, plus my laptop speakers are horrible.
My laptop is a HP Envy dv6
