Do you have this for the PC? I have the 360 version and I think it would play better on a console (as Gears did). Still, maybe with a better UI and a gamepad this would be better on PC. Either way, this is good news for ME PC users.

The game played fine on PC. Those links arnt loading for me. What are some of the key fixes/changes?

FINALLY!!!! What has it been 2 months, when they promised it at launch.

Bringing down the sky is a pretty sweet quest. Adds like a good 90 minutes of gameplay too. I wish alot more of the sidequests had been like that D:

Update 1.01

* added some infrastructure support for additional downloadable content
* updated the image of the Batarian race in the codex
* fixed an issue where the center channel for hardware audio wouldn't play correctly sometimes
* fixed an issue where the hardware mouse pointer would disappear when first selected
* fixed an issue where Shepard did not auto-crouch when entering cover in some places
* fixed a tool-tip indicating a game restart is needed before enabling hardware or software audio if the option was changed
* fixed an issue where ambient conversation would not be heard from rear speakers sometimes
* fixed a text string to make it clearer on how to exit a vehicle
* fixed a text string so the tool top for dragging the map is clearer in French languages builds

Mass Effect Configuration Utility

* fixed a crash running on certain multi-core AMD systems
* fixed an issue where video RAM was not being reported properly on certain cards

Seems like they haven't fixed Garuss low rez face. The website is taking is a beating the forum and every else is down. Damn even my download has stopped.
EDIT: This patch seems to ****s up more things than it's fixes. The lava on Therum and gas vents are completly black. And more objects in the game are low rez as well. I am starting to think that Bioware don't test their games well, the Garuss and Lava glitch are so obvious

Seems like they haven't fixed Garuss low rez face.

So I wasn't the only one who noticed, thats good news

I'll have to play this later.

All I can say is... finally! I was starting to worry whether or not this DLC would ever come.

Anyone have the bug where it doesnt cool down at all after you overload a weapon? I have to save then load it again to get it back to normal, quite annoying but I have finshed the game now so it wouldnt matter that much now.

Nice game though.

I had that bug. In fact, I had to beat you-know-who in the end using only my force powers and rifle-butts. Took over half an hour. Could be one of the reasons I have such a underwhelming opinion of the game.

I just recently ran into the same issue, kinda annoying especially if it happens mid fight. But I've also had randomly shit like elevator not moving and thus freezing me, along with a host of other glitches. I've learned to basically use F6 whenever possible to save myself from frustration.

 

[ktimekiller]

this game has far too many bugs, and not enough fixes for them

 

[Blackthorn]

Well since downloading this patch audio has totally ****ed up. Eeeuuuurgh...

lolipops had it all the time. But the game has quick save so all is well.
Also my version was borrowed from the internet for an indefinite amount of time, so that might
have have something to do with it.

Take off hardware sound in your settings. This patch messes around with you setting, and for some reason activates hardware sound, when it's broken.

I liked it. It still was littered with bugs that made the game before really annoying (voices not coming on, forcing me to use subtitles for instance), but I didn't get the overheat bug, and the story--for a side-quest--was actually pretty decent.
