Does Dragon Age Origins Require Internet?

Does Dragon Age ORigins require internet to INSTALL if you buy the CDs? My computers internet driver is F***** and i cant connect to the internet, but would like to buy this game.Does Dragon Age Origins Require Internet?
More and more games are requiring some kind of online activation in order to install or play a game.



The short answer is that you can install the base game.



The long answer is that if you attempt to use any of the official DLC add ons, including any bonus item codes that are available, sometimes in the retail packaging, then the game will constantly "phone home" to the EA Games Dragon Age servers.



This made me nuts. Not because the internet was not working on my system, but because the EA Dragon Age servers were having communication problems. It coughed out an error every 3 -5 minutes of game play which I had to click on to acknowlege... in the middle of a fight, when I was exploring, when I exited the inventory.... all the time.



This might happen if you install patches as well - not sure about that.



My recommendation is to buy the game - it is an excellent game and I believe that the developers have a gem here but for EA's game breaking DRM policy - but install a cracked .exe to run it.



This is what I did after EA support could not help me fix the connection errors and I've not had a problem with the game since. But then the cracked .exe file prevents it from phoning home.Does Dragon Age Origins Require Internet?
I don't think so. BTW I play this on my bro's ps3 and it's SOOO FUN!!

Whats the best class to be in dragon age origins?

i would like some of your opinions of the best best class to be in dragon age origins. and also what background and talents/ abilities they have.Whats the best class to be in dragon age origins?
I prefer rogue-Duelist or mage-Arcane Warrior.



Rogue is a damage dealing pro, and using the dual weapon skill tree becomes the most dangerous thing in battle, especially if you unlock the Duelist and Assassin specializations. As a rogue, I follow the tank around and attack whatever he is distracting, or anyone who goes after the mages. At higher levels, go right after elite/boss enemies and tear them apart while the tank keeps all the other enemies off your back. Put all your attribute points into Cunning since the Duelist gets to use Cunning to determine damage. Only use enough points in strength to get into good leather armor, and use a decent pair of weapons.



Mage, with the Arcane Warrior specialization is the best of warrior and mage combined. You get to use your magic skill to satisfy the strength requirement of armor and weapons and can still cast spells. Use Spirit Healer as the second spec to be a good backup healer to Wynne. At the top of the Arcane specialization, this is a very hard to kill character that's fun to play. Put all your attribute points into Magic until towards the end of the game when you put a few into Willpower. Wear less armor than the tank until higher levels.
I like human mage because you can just do the one sub class thing forgot what it is but it basically makes you a hand to hand fighter which is Bad *** cause you can still throw fire balls

But than again i like being a rouge and just being a archer using warriors as defenseWhats the best class to be in dragon age origins?
i personally like the Rogue (you can become a Bard!)

IDK the difference.... plz tell me!!What is the difference between dragon age origins and dragon age origins: awakening?
Awakening is an expansion, so it's shorter. You will need Origins to play, you can also import your original character from that game in to the expansion.



Major differences are:

No romance

New companions

New specializations and skills

Runecrafting and armor runes

New conversation system

You are the Warden Commander and have your own Keep and lands to ruleWhat is the difference between dragon age origins and dragon age origins: awakening?
Awakening is an expansion. Although I do not believe it is required, It is highly recommended that you have the original game in order to get the full experience.What is the difference between dragon age origins and dragon age origins: awakening?

It's a point and click game. You can pause to plan out your strategy and move your character around. After that you are just clicking on attack or spell icons to execute them.

  • Is dragon age origins better than dragon age 2?

    I think Origins is better as there is much more variaty in how you can play:you can go to many other city's in origins in 2 you can only go in one city and in 2 you can't change your party members armor in origins you can. OPINONS!!

    thanks.Is dragon age origins better than dragon age 2?
    I have to say that i still prefer Origins. The companions in DA2 was too shallow, Varric was the only one i felt lived up to the expectations. The fact that you couldn't change the armor on your party members was a bit annoying.The fact that you couldn't talk to your team mates while on quest was a bit stupid. And the game mechanics and interface (skills, attributes, etc...) was bit too simplified for my taste. The story was still good, i found it compelling and interesting. But i missed the sum up of the consequences of your actions at the end of the game which was in the end of both Origins and awakening.



    I dont understand why they changed things that was good to begin with. Don't get me wrong, DA2 is a good game but not as good as Origins. So if they are to make a DA3 i hope they base it more on Origins, I wish to see more of the Grey Wardens (preferably being one) I would like it if they combined the two stories, taking the hero of Ferelden into the mess which the champion of Kirkwall started.Is dragon age origins better than dragon age 2?
    i would say that they both have there moments i enjoy the gameplay of the 2nd one better but i enjoy the items and options menu but i would say that the 2nd one seems to be shorter then the1st one and to bring up the issue on thee party members i like changing the armor but i guess its simpliar then it was in origins and i did enjoy the massive map options you could go to and im sure there will be more DLC to be released to have the stroy and possible more party members
