[Attention] "Bug" list for the PS3

Post » Sun May 20, 2012 10:48 am

These are some of the bugs I'm having.

- Arn't able to turn in some miscelleneous quest items if I've already found them before recieving the quest, I.E. the books for the college, and the intstruments for the bards, and then if I am able to turn in, I will still have the item and the character will still talk to me like I haven't done the quest.

- Game will freeze randomly during load screens, Have had this problem playing for only 5 minutes to several hours.

- killing a dragon and not absorbing it's soul....i think it's more funny than a problem, I'm sure I currently have enough to finish activating the rest if the words in the game.

- Will come across a dragon flying in place, after hitting it with a bunch of arrows will flail about in all sorts of directions before dissapearing in the distance.

- I also have a problem with quest cursors showing up.

Thats all I can think of right now.

I also have a problem with putting weapons and armor on the stands in the houses, they seem to only work in the house in windhelm, in the others the mannequins will just dissapear if I put armor on it and I can't even interact with the weapon stands.

I am doing the Imperial Civil War quests, I am on The Battle for Fort Amol. At first when I got to the quest marker to meet the dudes invading the fort, they weren't there but it completed that step in the quest. So I figured well what the heck I can solo these punks anyway. When I get to the fort there isn't a living soul around and my kill meter is at 100% still. But with no one around I can't continue the quest line. Glad I saved it before I started.

So I delete the Skyrim game data from my PlayStation and re-install it and do the update. This time when I try the quest the dudes I'm supposed to meet are there and we go let loose on this fort. Things are going good, I'm getting my kills in. Down to 5% and no more enemies spawn.... So I still cannot complete this quest. So now I'm loading my save again before I started the quest and going to do something else until they hopefully fix it.

I really enjoy this game and don't want to have to return it, if that's even an option. I doubt Gamestop will be very apt to do that, especially since I got the CE.

My issue is a bit different. I am american and speak English. I am also living in Madrid Spain. My PS3 is configured in English. When I tried to install the game... it installed in FRENCH! I have tried 4 different discs on 3 different machines and if my PS3 is set to any other language then it correctly installs that language version of the game. However all discs I have tried to install in ENGLISH actually install in FRENCH. As I am living in Europe I am unable to purchase a game from the US or the UK! I currently CAN NOT buy the game in a language (ENGLISH) that I can play!!!

Ebay may deliver to you.

Same exact thing happened to me, except that there was no way to know where to meet the other imperials. Went to the fort and no one was there, but now it says I failed to meet with the legion members that were going to attack the fort and still shows 100% to be killed (PS3, level 47) Unfortunately I ignored the issue for awhile and kept doing other quest (I'm married to a wife that hates games and need to take advantage of playing when I can). Went back to the fort and its still the same situation. It really svcks that this is happening on a main quest.

Exact same thing is happening to me to. It also happened with Fort Dunstad, but I was able to use Season Unending in the Main Quest to bypass it. Can't do that agin for Fort Amol. This is really frustrating :-(

Last night I spent a perk on Augment Flame 1, in the destruction tree, but it did not increase the damage of my Fire spells at all. I ended up loading the game a few times for various reasons, but they still did comparable damage to my Frost spells.
Today, all of a sudden, Augment Flame HAS applied, but not to everything.

Fireball 50 (up from 40)
Firebolt 31 (up from 25)
Flames 10 (up from 8)
Flame Cloak 8 (No Change)
Fire Rune 50 (No Change)



A discussion of Destruction with a fellow wizard indicates Shock (and presumably frost) have the same experience.
The cloak, rune, and wall spells in the Destruciton School are not affected by that perk. Bummer, I know

Cannot finish thieves guild questline because there is no dialogue option to receive my new guildmaster's armor. She just asks for my old thieves armor to upgrade which I sold so I no longer am able to give her. Please patch this ASAP. Over 40 people have posted on the main topic about this bug.

Not too far into the game yet so I haven't experience lag or quest issues but I have started noticing problems with textures not scaling properly, especially noticeable at the Shrine of Azura.

Text on my sdtv is blurry and unreadable....also when ever i receive something as a reward I cannot see what it is because the screen is zoomed in too much would be nice if I could adjust the screen size.

The mission "Forbidden Legend" is bugged. I went into Folgunthur with the Ivory Claw and cleared it. After a while i activated Forbidden Legend but when i got to the part where it says "Read Daynas Valen's notes" it won't advance from there after i read the journal. So i am stuck with this mission on my list and no way to further the mission.

The red eagle quest is repeatable I think (is this a bug?). I say I think because I didn't follow through the second time. I put red eagles sword into the slot and left it. I already have one red eagles bane and didn't want to carry two due to weight.

Oh wait.....I play on the 360 but I assume this is a ps3 issue as well considering its the same game.

yeah, that happened to me. stay away from the red eagle books you find. for me it seems to activate once again after reading the book.

I noticed that after completing the civil war (Imperial Side) any time I visit Whiterun, Hadvar is there and he follows me around with his weapon drawn, no dialogue options, otherwise acting like a follower, but when I leave Whiterun he stays there. Thought it was a one time thing though he finds me again any time I go there lol.

I'm afraid the blurry text on SDTV is not a bug, it's to be expected. Sony didn't prioritize optimizing the picture quality on SDTV at all, so it's bad. I'm surprised you haven't noticed this on other games. I suggest investing on a HDMI capable display device.

300 hours in here, 12mb save & patch 1.3.

Some of the larger issues I've encountered:
- Sluggish framerate/lag after some travel (of course)
- Really poor quality textures after patch 1.2.. not limited to any specific area and even the loading screen objects look terrible at times - really ruins the atmosphere. I really hope this is fixed in 1.4 as it's worse then the lag IMO since that can fixed by reloading skyrim..
- Occasional freeze whilst loading a new area.
- Sometimes parts of landscape or walls will disappear when viewed at a certain angle.
- I have fallen through the floor on a number of occasions.
- NPC's can get permanently stuck waist high in the ground.. the stable owner at whiterun has been buried in the same spot for the past 150 hrs of gameplay. He even survived the stormcloak takeover of whiterun lol..
- "Blood on the Ice" quest is broken for me. Seems I went into hjerim too early and was doomed from that point.. I could not interact with the dead body at all.. fumbled my way through a few more objectives and ended up accusing the jarl's mage.. Now when I speak to him in jail he tells me to patrol the streets at night etc, however as soon as a step away the objective "patrol the streets" instantly completes and gives me a new one - "catch the killer". The killer is running around like a loony outside towards hjerim, it's impossible to kill him and I'm stuck with the strange amulet.

- oh and of course all the mannequins in the game are useless because they vanish when equipped, however weapon racks work fine for me.

Oh good. A bug list section! Here goes:

1) The Axe of Whiterun has problems with the weapon rack (weapon mounts) in homes. If you put it on any of the mounts or racks, it won't show up correctly at all.
2) [Spoiler] The Dragonbane sword (found in Sky Haven Temple) tends to "turn off" weapon racks. If I put it on a mount or a rack and then remove it, I can't put anything else there.
3) I've had the game freezes in menu screens and during auto-saves but the work around (freeing up space and turning off auto-saves) fixed all of that. I did, however, have it freeze on me mid gameplay.
4) [Spoiler] In the College of Winterhold missions, when Ancano flips out and I'm told to fight the 10 Ice Wraiths ("Magical Anomalies" as they're called during the quest), the game just sent me back to the XMB without warning.

I'll post more as I remember/encounter them.
This is, in no way, a knock on the game. Just a bug list. I've put in 80+ hours and will most likely continue to do so. You make this gamer/game dev proud to be a part (and fan) of this industry. Well done, Bethesda. Well done.

Yah, if someone sells it, it should never give them the option to upgrade. They sold it.
