bug, glitches and other annoyances....

Post » Wed May 16, 2012 5:16 pm

Am I the only person on the planet that is NOT flipping out over bugs and glitches?

I have spent over 90 hours in the game - including an 18 hour long solid play session - and have only had my 360 freeze twice (and that was when I pressed my Guide button to answer an incoming message). I have witnessed some things that were laughable (a dead horse fell out of the sky in front of me), ifrustrated (my character getting stuck in a wall) and confusing (having items in my inventory disappear).

Why is it that people always whine - "I had to reload an older save point and I lost all of my play time". Here's a solution: save manually more often, thus your last save point won't be that far back. The obvious answer to that from most whineasses is "Why should I have to save more often??? Bethesda should fix the problem, not release the game buggy", and the like. Well, because the world (or Bethesda) doesn't owe you a damn thing.

Bethesda - thank you. You have given me a game that has truly surpassed all of my expectations. I will gladly deal with bugs and glitches (and their ridiculously small part of the universe and real life), in exchange for an escape from reality filled with so many wonderful things.

Anyone who wants to flame me, go ahead...obviously you'll have plenty of time to do so, since your game is soooo unplayable...

...but, do me a favor - make sure in your comments that you use some semblance of punctuation and decent grammar...or is your inability to spell a bug/glitch you picked up in school?

I'm freaking out because my game runs like crap and is not enjoyable and i am playing on the 360, whenever there are npc's on the screen it stutters and skips and it is the most annoying thing in the world because nothing fixes it and the game runs fine if there are no npc's on screen, it seems i am the only person in the world who has this damn problem and my xbox is brand new, and i am not happy right now.

Good to see another person understand that a game on this scale is impossible to test 100% for bug's.

I bought a new car once that was the biggest piece of crap I have ever owned. It was a new car but it was broken. Maybe your xbox isn't performing up to snuff due to a manufacturers defect. I've always found that if you (or any other solo person) seems to be the only one with the problem, it's more than likely not your game disc or the game itself. That's when you need to start thinking outside the box

See that would make sense if it caused problems with all my games but it's only causing problems with Skyrim....

I had game lock up 5/6 times now - always when I enter a dungeon - starts loading then just locks up - well over 100hours playtime - so 5/6 times is low - I am using a new slim xbox - No lock ups on any other games - I also spotted many creatures (supposedly land based) dropped from sky sometimes landing on ground ^^ alive !!! other times dropping through floor ;)
