Larian Studios Forums Divinity 2 - Ego Draconis (English) Technical problems XBOX 360 Divinity 2 Bugs ruin the game.

I have been trying to play this game for days now, but I cant seem to keep going....

Issue #1 - Severe Frame rate issues. Gets to the point I have to leave certain area's and never come back!

Issue #2 - Dialogue is missing from the game. For instance the 5 statues in one of the flying fortress side missions, Only one of the statues spoke I sat for 5 hours trying to get the right combo from absolutely NO HELP!!!!.

Issue #3 - Characters not loading. In the same Flying fortress stated in issue #2. Went into the portal to find a failing autosave menu appear, then onto an invisible person talking to me. later on to the game freezing from some stupid reason.

Issue #4 - Waypoint Shrines not working. This one pissed me the most off! went to battle tower to turn in my final quests for my people. Throne room Shrine DOESNT WORK!!!! WTF!!! How am I suppose to get out of the battle tower.

Issue #5 - Obviously the save/load glitch! lame as hell!.

Issue #6 - Invisible me after returning from dragon form. I stay invisible for quite some time. Not a HUGE thing but annoying.

Honestly This game's storyline COULD! be great. But all the bugs to this game make this an epic fail. I give a 1 (Fart sound) out of 10. I have also tried installing the game and uninstalling the game to every issue reported above(except #5). I think they rushed the game way to fast to come out with Dragon age. Which this game could be much better than that game IF! there were bugs fixed, Or If the developers came out with a patch to fix this garbage.

OH! and for the people who say it's because of my xbox, My xbox is fairly new and it plays every game but this Flawless.

I am wondering if there is anyone out there with the same problems that I had?

Very strange!!

I haven't had none of these bugs had on my xbox-version!!
I buy it 23e of novembre 2009 in Belgium shop. Are you from US?

Have something going wrong with the last new xbox-versions the publisher('s) makes???

But @ DBS I MOMO :
Issue #2: isn't a bug!!
It's for sure one of the good challeging puzzles in D II !! Because the most puzzles are not very difficult or even easy to solve (for me). But yeah, I have in the past making few other challeging puzzle games like Riven from the Mist-set .

Do you read the book that lay down near the first statue you met? Very important information it gives you!!! Think logical! Write all hints the statues give on paper and ... success!!

Yea I am from the US, I got the game When it came out here on the 5th of Jan. ? I think.

I thought it was a bug since one statue talked, plus the invisible people didn't help with me thinking the puzzle was bugged. And when I went through the first time there wasnt a book by the first statue. I know because I spent several hours searching and trying to figure it out. IDK.

But I went through a second time and it loaded just fine??? F*ing Weird if you ask me. But I do love this game, wish I wasnt getting the short end of the stick on it tho.

I havent played an rpg as fun since oblivion. And I think we can all agree that a good RPG is hard to come by. But thanks for the reply.

I also haven't had any of these issues. I have the US Gamestop Pre-order Edition.

I've had all of these and more. The statue glitch is really pissing me off, for me NONE of them have any dialogue. I've reloaded 3 different saves and it happens every time. So my Achievement score is screwed up forever now because I can't get the 99 points for completing the game due to these damn glitches. PLAY TEST YOUR GAMES.

The only one I've ran into so far and it's in my opinion the worst is the save/load problem, it's worse then most because somehow it will even roll back the save file multiple times so that instead of being lvl 13 on the save, I become lvl 9, the only way around this one I've found is to restart the game completely which is an extreme inconvinience. As for all the others, problems you talked about DBS I didn't have a single one of them I'm sorry to say, did you check the disk for any scratches at all, I know char. loading is caused by that sometimes

Sorry, I'm not sure the xbox-version of the US is totally the same as in Europe, but strange and sadly that so many from US have problems with the xbox-version!!

I afraid the publishers do something wrong???

There was only 1 kind of a frustrating bug in my version, but simply to solve on my own (never ending loadingscreen after dialog with Rhode and with Arthur Gremory) via SKIP dialog

But all the bugs I read about the xbox-version now...? Woow... very sadly!

One thing I know for sure: In Keara's Fortress with the 5 statues there is a Note (sorry, NOT a book! - I was using a wrong word!), it names "Note" and in that Note is written:
The note, written in a shaky hand, contains but a few words:
"I solved it and still I cannot pass! They lied to me! They lied!"

I have had the same problems too, especially that damn save/load glitch (go to xbox dashboard and start the game and hit continue) and the statue glitch... I looked up the statue names:
Fire-room Statue left: Havoc
Fire-room Statue right: Mayhem
Flower-room Statue left: Waste
Flower-room Statue right: Chaos
Alone-standing Statue: Devastation

Same problems on my U.S. version -
on my second play through even more fun -the exits started disapearing everytime I loaded a game and I started losing game saves as well - the game is completely unplayable at this point. I started playing consol games in the first place because of crap like this lol. These bugs combined with the horrible ending has means this is my first and last purchase from Larian. Time to sell back my copy and buy some expansions for Dragon Age.

Ive noticed a few glitches, falling through the ground a couple times and sometimes when i load a save the graphics dont render. But aside from that its all been good. Havent had any of the statue glitches though.

yeah the same thing happened to me but i am in a cave and cant leave the area, cant talk to any1/interact with anything and when i try and jump in lava to die nothing happens. When i use the teleport thingy to battle tower i just fall under the map completely apart from in throne room im slightly under the map and can only go into the masters chamber where my screen goes red and misty and i still cant interact with anything. please help.

P.S. mine is the xbox version and im from the UK

ok itsbeen 6 months now, are they fixed??

A patch is expected around October (before or about the release of FoV / DKS).

That said, playing the US Xbox release I didn't have any frame rate issues, problems with invisible characters (NPCs or the main character) or trouble with teleporter shrines. The missing text with Keara's statues can be found in the forum, or walkthough, etc (annoying, but easily worked around).
I've also fallen through the ground a couple times when Rush Attacking; periodic saves make that easy to recover from, and in one case I could run in the downhill direction, and popped back up above ground.

There was a patch to fix the potential problem in the US release reloading a save that have been overwritten, though it was simple enough to avoid or work around the issue if you knew about it.

I own the PC version and many of the bugs mentioned here are also found in the PC version.

A Good game, A fun Game, A great Idea and story line. Could have been the game of the year, had it not been released with all the issues.

While I am happy that Larian is working on the issues, with proper testing, most of these isuues could have been avoided before going out the door. I would have easily paid 50 US for this game had it not had all the bugs. Instead of the 29.00 US I paid for it.

Most games today have a lack of proper testing before release. This is normally done because of time and/or buget constraints.

Consider the following: Xbox is a generalized system. Its not varied like a lot of PC systems are. There is absolutly no valid excuse for bugs in the Xbox version.
