You'll only get that from reviewers until the 18th. EA Access is Xbox One only.

Oh shit,thats right lol...oh well,if its good on the X1,should be great on PS4 as well right..? right..?

 

[jesu]

Had to make room on my hard drive, think I might just make it.
Now I'm trying to plow through DAII before I try it.

 

[adj_noun]

It's live.

I'm downloading now.

 

[Iced_Eagle]

It's live.

I'm downloading now.

Live as in playable?!

My god I'm going to have a long night... And by long I mean exactly 6 hours long.

Already had it pre-ordered so it will be great to get some early play time with it.

 

[Boudica]

I think playing 6 hours and then having to wait would drive me crazier than just waiting.

Oh I'm spreading that time out lol An hour a day till launch is fine by me.

 

[Tovarisc]

Someone better to stream it then! :b

 

[Revas]

Thanks for the heads up, need these 41 gbs to fly by.

I have a 3 day drill weekend incoming; I'm going to deplete those six hours tonight in all likelihood. Will likely stream.


Edit: Playable @ 13% oh yeah

 

[RoboPlato]

I hate all of you that get to play this early.

 

[Ploid 3.0]

Yes guys spread it out, savor it. If you find yourself lolygagging cut it off pronto. You are researchers, explore for the world.

 

[shinobi602]

I'm not stepping foot in this here thread after this lol.

I don't wanna know nothin!

 

[TheLegendary]

Great service and great opportunity for EA to sell me the game. With everything else coming out I wasnt considering DA but the trial may convince me otherwise.

 

[Reluctant-Hero]

Is there any way start a remote download?

 

[golem]

Oh man kind of tempted to sign up.

EA must have some confidence in their developers.. now I see why Ubisoft doesnt have a similar program.

 

[boredofcanada]

how far into the game does this take place? I'm a little iffy about playing content twice tbh.

I think it just starts at the beginning, right?

 

[Reluctant-Hero]

From the very beginning through the first area,

the Hinterlands

Locked into 1st zone [Hinterlands] + MP.

 

[Mine01]

Man is there any info on the framerate/resolution between versions? (old/current gen, one/ps4) this might be the game that pushes me to current gen.

1080p on PS4, 900p on XBO
30fps on both

Nothing known about PS3/360 yet although Shinobi has been told it runs better than DAO and 2 on those platforms.

Then just play it once, it saves your progress.

 

[Basketball]

Just finished up doing the Keep

never played any DA games only the Demo of 2

anyway pretty excited to play DA I early

 

[Korosenai]

Can I play the 6 hour trial without buying the game? Not sure if I want it yet, but I'd gladly drop $5 to play it and see if it's worth it.

 

[PhatSaqs]

ok 4.99 spent. Downloading.

 

[Dawg]

I'm not stepping foot in this here thread after this lol.

I don't wanna know nothin!

isn't that a double negative

Shinobi wants to know everything!

 

[LegalEagleMike]

so can the OT go up tomorrow or do we still have to wait for "official" release?

 

[lostcauz]

Yep, you don't need to buy it to play the trial.

 

[HeisenbergLannister]

Time to sign up for a month.

Have to download the system update first. Awesome.

Pretty cool, any word on the framerate? any huge dips? just saw the ign review and oh my, looks awesome.

 

[Noobcraft]

I'll probably try this out. I've never played a Dragon Age game before (just the demo of 2) so this should be interesting.

 

[sam777]

Starts from the beginning and your save carries over, so you won't be playing anything twice.

 

[Tovarisc]

We shall wait afaik as official release isn't before Tuesday. This is basically pre-release demo.

I wonder how well new OT rules will work in future when this kind stuff, along with Day 0 Editions, will become more common.

 

[Karak]

Access continues to be justify its existence and be amazing.

Just don't pull the rug out from under everyone's feet and we'll be good.

Hell its already paid for itself for me.

 

[Hugstable]

PS4 impressions please,you lucky bastards ...framerate,graphics,etc etc ,the usual lol...

Ps4 doesn't have EA Acess haha.. so excited to hear impressions of thos game overall, it looked amazing in everything I've seen so far.

 

[Xando]

Xbone downloads games in standby like ps4, right?

 

[adj_noun]

Xbone downloads games in standby like ps4, right?

Yes. That's how I'm doing it.

 

[Xando]

Yes. That's how I'm doing it.

Good, then i'll be able to play when i wake up tomorrow.

 

[orangecoke]

Shouldn't be any major spoilers - that's why it was capped at the Hinterlands area

 

[SmoothRunningGun]

Awesome. Gotta destiny tonight, but I'll go ahead and download it.

 

[jbug617]

EA Access just tweeted that the trial is live.

 

[VaultBoy101]

How big is the download? Seriously considering a one-month EA Access purchase just to get a taste. With the added bonus that the full game would already be installed (I assume) when I get my disc copy on Tuesday.

~40gb

 

[Ibuki]

If we don't delete the trial will we have to still install the game from scratch when it comes out?

 

[Haklong]

Playing and broadcasting now.

Anyone start the trial who had already purchased and pre-loaded the game?

That's my situation, and it seems to be downloading the entire game all over again.

It let me right in after a short update.

Hmm. Not me. I guess I'll give it a whirl tomorrow. :/

 

[RoKKeR]

40GB... fuck! Time to break out the external HDD.

Also this will be my first time playing Dragon Age... ever.

Downloading the full game for a 6 hour trial :/ This gen needs (way) more than 500GB hard drives.

41.64 GB for the record.

 

[MaddenNFL64]

It is the full game, gated by EA access with a 6 hour time limit. So when the game is officially out, and you buy it, you start off where you left off.

Shiiiiiiit. Is there any way to initiate a remote download? I'm at the gym and want this ready for later tonight.
