  1. DAO Ultimate Edition DLC Issue


    On Xbox 360, I loved how my purchased Base Game version of DAO could be augmented by having purchased the Ultimate Edition and Install the DLC from Disc 2 Directly into the 360 Hard Drive so I can play the entire DAO saga digitally. When DAO was announced
    for Xbox One AND would allow for the Ultimate Edition to be open to BC, I was excited, because I thought I could have the same experience on my One. Note I said "thought" because apparently when I've tried to install the DLC from Disc 2 not only does it not
    reflect installations on the 360's "shell" operating system it also presents Disc 2 as if it were Disc one, rather than how Disc 2 was presented on 360 where it was a simple installation program. Whenever I've tried the solutions listed in other posts to install
    the DLC, the solution appears to require that I have Disc 2 of Ultimate Edition in my One at all times when playing for the DLC to display and be accessed. For someone like me who doesn't focus on one game from start to finish, but rather goes from one game
    to another and back, I feel that it would be an unfair compromise to either just play my desired way on 360 or leaving Disc 2 In to play if I want to play on One. Disc 2 was intended as a DLC Installation Disc. End of Story. While I can understand the need
    for EA and Microsoft to have the BC DRM, I feel that either requiring what was only an installation Disc remain in the drive when it should not need to or re-buying DLC I already own are not viable solutions to this issue. Therefore, if anyone knows of a way
    where all the DLC from Disc 2 be installed and then I can play without Disc 2 being in the drive, please provide a clear, detailed, step-by-step resolution. If this solution is not currently feasible, then I am strongly requesting to the point of rattling
    a sabre that Microsoft and/or EA patch DAO's BC version so that Disc 2 can be processed and presented EXACTLY the way it was on 360 and just install the DLC Contents to the Hard Drive without need for Disc 2 to be in the drive, please

    Disc 2 is just an installation Disc. Don't DRM a game to make a Disc be required to play something when it originally did not have that function in a previous console iteration in the Microsoft Family if you're making it available for the newest member...
    Thank you.

    :)

    Dragon Age Origins or Dagon Age 2?

    The general consensus I see is that Dragon Age: Origins is much better than DA2. I have only played DAO, not DA2 or even any of DAO's DLCs. It's very good and I recommend it, specially if you can find the Ultimate Edition for cheap since that even comes with a hefty expansion (Awakening) and the DLCs.

    Ultimate edition not working?

    downloaded DAO from backwards compatibility but it's making me repurchase the awakening DLC and content. I have the ultimate edition disk; is there something I need to do for the console to recognize I already own these? Really don't want to buy for a second
    time.

    Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion 5th Anniversary Edition

    Nice deal ... but would be more nice if all DLC's were included like DAO Ultimate ed. IMO.

    Dragon Age: Awakening for the Xbox Slim

    I have Dragon Age Awakening and an XBox Slim. It definitely works on it. Try re-downloading the DLC or reinstalling it if you have the Ultimate Edition. You may need to delete the Awakening file first.

    Settings->System->Storage->Hard Drive->Games and Apps->Dragon Age Origins->DAO: Awakening

    if i buy and disc xbox game i already have on digital, will i keep my same data on the disc?

    You can just buy the DLC from the store. That won't turn it into the Ultimate edition though. The only way for it to be the Ultimate Edition is to buy the Ultimate edition.

    Thoughts or reviews on new DLC?

    Thanks for all the sharing. The dlcs for DAO were really short, I hope this one would be a little longer. Just finished the new dlc for Fallout New Vegas and it took me ~15 hrs.

    I bought all the DAO dlcs at day 1 but all the Fallout 3 dlcs with a discount. This time I guess I'll just do the opposite for DA2 and FNV.

    Multiple disc games

    [quote user="Smiling Cat"]

    Doesn't Forza 4 have multiple discs, but only requires one in the tray? Haven't played it personally. Being a first party title makes sense they would know how to do it...[/quote]

    It has nothing to do with 1st party, 2nd party, etc. FM4's disc two is not a game disc, it's additional content only. It's pretty much equal to DLC, except it was originally delivered on a disc rather than over an internet connection. The same goes for DAO
    Ultimate Edition.
