1.07 PATCH | When?
Yeah, because some of us are still waiting for other things to show up. :eahigh_file:
Forum Discussion
I almost can't tell how disappointed I am with the 1.06 patch.
They almost only fixed cosmetics. There is only one bug fix that is needful for me.
But although the patch log speaks of improved performance and stabilty I have massive performance/stability issues since 1.06.
In my 200 hours gameplay before 1.06 I had a fps range between 50 and 60. Now it is between 23 (!!!) and 60. What the ****.
With every patch they put more cosmetics in it but also more problems.
I won't wait another month.
If they don't come up with real fixes or at least some more communication about it, I'll jsut delete the game and maybe give it a try in 1 or 2 years.
In one of the tweets announcing 1.06 one of the devs said they are going right into 1.07 - so i am hoping its out in the next 2 weeks as opposed to a month like the last one..
...I have said this a number of times, but man - this game could have been sooo good at launch and received much better reviews if EA just gave/let Bioware have 2-3 extra months of dev time. There would have been none of the bad press about the lip syncing/animations and they could have effectively released as 1.07 being 1.00 if you get my drift... \
While some people may not really care - there was an article i read today saying Mass Effect is on hiatus - meaning no sequel to this or a new ME game for quite a while, beyond the normal 2-4 year or so dev time... This is directly related to poor sales which is directly related to poor reviews which is a direct result of bugs/issues which is directly related to EA being greedy and not giving Bioware enough time...This sux so bad as ME is seriously one of my favourite game series ever, and it seems EA has totally messed this up...
I hope the talk of Hiatus is wrong or blown out of proportion - i hope there will be another ME in 2-3 years (even if they chill back on the open world/scope and go back to a more focused (but still non-linear) style like ME2)
Back on track ... I think/hope patch 1.07 will be out in about 2 weeks...
(I freaking love ME:A - Just not how EA has handled the situation)
@nickc2496 I read about the hiatus too. And I totally agree with you that BioWare should have had more time. The poor reviews are not all fair in my opinion and there is a lot of hate going on I can't understand even though I went through disappintment and frustration with the game. It's a good game and I enjoyed it, but there is still need to fix a lot of things. Especially quests. I mean whats the point in a game if you can't do quests and story?
Its a nice plus to have good animation, new skins and clothes, but I want a game I can complete to 100%!
Well the reason I am so disappointed right now is that I really enjoyed Andromeda. I was looking forward to start a new playhtrough with the new patch, but every patch just brings more issues for me.
There are so many quests that sill can't be completed and even reports that the fixed quests (Nomad shield for example) are not being completed after the patch.
I just don't want to look forward to a new patch every month just to see that they still don't get it.

That article: http://www.pcgamer.com/report-mass-effect-on-hiatus-bioware-montreal-transitioning-to-a-support-studio/
The word "hiatus" does scare me a bit and definitely disappoints me. It seems as if they are re-allocating employees from Bioware Montreal to work on Star Wars Battlefront 2. I think this will definitely impact any DLC coming out this year, but hopefully the staff that remains will still be working on patching the game.
Even with the luke warm reception MEA received at launch, I can't imagine them completely abandoning the ME universe. I really love MEA, and I agree that if they had taken (or been allowed to take) another 2 or 3 months before launch, MEA would have gotten a better reception.
