| Interesting. EA has been marketing this game in several odd ways. Nevertheless, From what I have seen of the game's previews, Bioware has done a nice job adding new features without dumbing the game down (I'm looking at your Mass Effect 2) |

| Here's to hoping the entire debacle with the Mass Effect 2 extras for pre-ordering and needing an EA and Mass Effect account don't plague this game as well. I was lucky to have researched everything before inputting my codes for ME2, but others weren't. |

Anyone know if they are doing a ME2 style play the demo (which is the tutorial and intro parts) and then save so if you buy DA2 you don't need to replay the same section?
Cause frankly, that is one of the smartest ideas for demos. I absolutely love the fact it does that. Sure, I had beaten ME2 already before I got the demo (just wanted a look) but if they do it with DA, I'll be very happy. |

| Same here. I have both 360 and PS3 so I will download it for both systems. Do you think it will count as 2 or just one? |
|
Forum Posts: 2808 | Comment #21 by Worhammer Friday, February 18, 2011 @ 09:01:22 AM | |
| @19 & 20 - It might only count as one, unless you set up a new account for each console. Who knows, though, it's worth a shot anyway. I don't doubt that it'll get a million downloads between the various consoles. |

Even if the demo doesn't reach 1 million downloads i'm sure they will give us the 2 extra items for free anyways. They aren't just gonna hold back content and/or charge us for it when they've already offered it to us for free.
Either way, I cant wait to try the demo. I'm getting bulletstorm the same day but I'll be trying out DA:2 first. |

Just got my 1750 in Origins and I'm stoked to play this game... The only downside is I like to wait for all the dlc to come out before I start playing games like this. I'll have to wait awhile for this game but the good news is its almost time for me to tap into Fallout New Vegas and Mass Effect 2...

| Funny how all these devs are adding "incentives" to entice you to play their games. It's like they're saying, "Do this, or Try this and you get this free!" Word to the wise.......you're really paying for it...you just don't realize it because of the masked word FREE. |

Forum Posts: 88 | Comment #41 by ScuzzyBunny FTN Friday, February 18, 2011 @ 05:16:41 PM | |
| To clarify on the EA account, it all depends on what you registered on the EA site (EA registers an email address, and you link that to either a 360, PS3, or PC account...or all). If you registered different tags to different emails, you can re-download and it will count numerous times. Like others said, most companies (like DICE) will give the promo stuff for free if the requirements aren't hit, but it is EA, and I will admit I was shocked to see "free" and "EA" together...will it happen again? Hope so...they are saving all that cash on servers and EA Elite 11 support now!! |

| Im going to have so much free stuff when i play this game. I already have the dead space 2 code. I got a code for a belt (something about penny arcade) Also got the free upgrade at game, and aparently they are also giving me something for preordering at game. Some Shield that lets me regenerate my HP. This is defo the way to go to get me excited about a game ^.^ |

@3 - We don't know, as it's not out yet.
@20 - Should count as two, as they're different accounts, being PS3 and 360.
@23 - This is EA. They don't get anything like as much hate as Activision, but they're just as ruthless. |

| First off don't get me wrong if you slapped Bioware's name on a pair of adult diapers id buy them and they would probably be great but is anyone else really annoyed that there is no collectors edition(and i dont mean the signature edition)? I mean on these epic rpg's they all need to have one. |

There's a third unlock now... quoted from : http://dragonage.bioware.com/da2/home/
"We challenged our fans to download the Dragon Age 2 demo one million times. This was a big challenge, but our fans exceeded the goal! The Call to Arms has been won and the 2 in game tomes have been unlocked.
Now a New Challenge has appeared. The third and most powerful tome is waiting to be unlocked. To unlock the tome “Of Things Not Lost” visit the Dragon Age Facebook Page and share that days post. If each post from now to March 4, 2011 is shared and reaches 1,000,000 Impressions the day it is posted the tome will unlock." |
