I noticed a few odd frame drops in the tutorial. They occurred for no apparent reason; I could be standing in an empty hallway, and the frame rate would drop to 35 until I left. I really began to suspect that something was up during the first boss fight. I don't think I saw 60fps that whole time. Then I woke up in Haven and looked at the door, only to find that my frame rate had crashed hard. It was at this point that I had to put it down. This game is not playable near 30fps. It feels terrible.
Just to provide some perspective, I've been playing at the games recommended settings. I don't know what exactly goes in to designing an "Auto Detect" setting for PC games, but I've always suspected that they tend to underestimate your hardware. I even changed it to the "High" preset (which is lower than the automatic settings). This changed nothing.
I'm saying all of this because I want to add my situation to this thread, so that maybe it will get some much needed attention.
I personally think it is a little early to say that I'm disappointed in Bioware. I know that sometimes this kind of stuff can be hard to avoid. However, I am disappointed in the lack of real acknowledgement from Bioware/EA. I'm disappointed in the fact we have yet to receive any sort of estimate as to when this will be resolved (as far as I know). I'm angry at the Dragon Age Twitter account for the constant hype updates. Perhaps that is irrational, but at this point I feel like they are taunting me, and all of the other unfortunate users who are not able to enjoy this thing that they paid good money for.
