When I try to play freeplay, the game shuts down completely and I have to restart it. I can only do stronghold runs and I suck at them because when I shoot with my gun longer than about 2 seconds, my screen spasms out and flips around everywhere until I stop shooting and then I'm always looking up straight at the sky. It's hella annoying and renders me useless in fights. Anyone else experiencing these problems? I crashed in freeplay on Friday. A session on Saturday went without incidents. And the screen shaking uncontrollably when shooting? Ye, I got that one too.

+1 having the freeplay issues here. I could never start it. A loading screen --- some sounds as the progress bar fills --- a server error loading me back to my javelin and resetting me back to my spawning point at the fort. Had tried for 5-6 times, I think. Could olny play the mission.

It's hella annoying and renders me useless in fights. Anyone else experiencing these problems? Crazy screen shakes on me too, what is helping me a lot (but not always, depends on fire rate of a gun) is shooting in like half a second bursts - which means that my damage is lower than it could be but at least I can shoot, eh... :-D And the screen shaking uncontrollably when shooting? Ye, I got that one too. Well, I'm glad I am not alone. When the forums did not respond to my issue I thought maybe it had to be a weird mix of game and computer... but wasn't sure why that'd be the case. --- Now that the demo is over though, my final thoughts are: I played 5 hours out of 10 and got a bit bored. I could've played more but didn't. The fighting was fun (minus the screen spasm glitches), but I don't think it justifies the camp claiming it's good. Mainly, I feel like there's something missing. I felt no drive to really explore this jungle puzzle of a world because why? Fort Tarsis and its inhabitants lack meaning, background and purpose? I dunno. I just can't get into a world that has a random rundown fort on a random dangerous world with more random machines hellbent on destroying whatever comes out of it. I need BioWare to give it substance and give me reason to care. Trailers piping duty and bravery and gameplay with cool metal suits that go a step above pew pewing doesn't cut it. Where did these people come from? Why are they fighting? Why does Fort Tarsis exist? Why does this thing mentioned as "Anthem" exist and why is it so hard to understand? Alas, I liked Matthias- he, or they, were cool and gave me hope that there may be interesting dialogue and real story. But, I still ended up not caring because I couldn't see who he/they were interacting with (me). I need a CHARACTER, not a suit. So, at the moment would I buy Anthem? No way. Are there major improvements BioWare needs to make before I'd consider buying it? Definitely.

The mistake in the Origin client launch time had to be corrected literally in the last day before launch 😂
People have been talking about it for several weeks, prepared for that hour and BAM "sorry, it's like 15+ hours later". Off to a great start before even starting 😁
I really wished the game was launching as Origin claimed. With my schedule I could start play it 15+ hours later anyway and hoped that all initial server queues, crashes and hot fixes will be mostly solved. But I guess I now will witness all that "fun" first hand.

Regarding screen shakes: In yesterday's Twitch livestream they showed added option for adjustment of an amount of screen/camera shakes, or as they (Ben Irving) said "the amount of game immersion"... Yay!

But I guess I now will witness all that "fun" first hand. I gotta say that I was really confused when people were talking during yesterday's livestream about starting playing a game today, since my Origin was always showing Feb 15, 4PM CET. I'm probably one of those few which actually felt relieved when Chad said that it was indeed Friday Feb 15th the whole time.

Yay! That guy has some weird concept of game immersion 😑 Or I just don't feel it's the same thing. Immersion is personal, but I would prefer a detailed living world with dynamic...everything plus well crafted lore, quests and NPCs. Definitely not feeling immersed when my screen tries to give me a headache. Why not sell Anthem periferals that bite, shock, burn and slap the player too? 😂

Gotta make up for the lack of combat audio feedback with something! If screen shakes, you did something right! Or you're about to die...

Yay! That's the first thing I'll shut off (or at least as low as possible). "Game immersion" shouldn't give me flashbacks to concussion-induced vertigo.

Xbox trial. Stuck? Solution: Hard restart Xbox (hold X down to shut-down & restart. Open EA Access app - right bumper to 'Games'. Stick down to 'Game Trials'. It's there.

Working fine so far. Got through the initial tutorials and am back at Tarsis. Even accepted a daily, a weekly and a monthly quest/challenge. The game doesn't run much smoother than the demo so far (PC). Maybe 5-6 FPS extra in the tutorial missions at the same settings unless I imagine it. Need to get in the open world and check more. Tarsis is better though, like 10 FPS better.
P.S. The Tarsis "sprint" mode is nothing more than a F placebo. I need moar speed! It better increase after the next tutorials.

Should be showing in Play First Trials if you have Origin Access Basic, but I only see Battlefield V and FIFA. Update if any other PC players are curious. The trial was eventually posted. I downloaded and played the opening missions with no issue. Although...the Legion of Dawn helmet was equipped in the second opening mission...before you have access to the forge...and I didnt buy anything yet that should give me Legion of Dawn Equipment. Anyways, I should get back to working remotely...

So far so good. Also flight/swim controls I have found to be good at default settings so far. They are set way lower than what I had to use in demo.

I was seeing a lot of problems on Xbox yesterday. - Dropping out of game regularly due to Server connection. - Dropping out of game due to "unable to update pilot info", then loss of server connection, happening during conversations in Tarsis. - Startup scenario does not have a save point before the end, so if the server drops, you have to do the whole thing over. - Most of the problems with missions still there, most annoying was extreme rubber-banding at times (Javelin launch pad i.e). - very Long load times.

That can't be stressed how much better it is to see. Very colorful, think the world of Pandora at night from Avatar.
