Hearthfire PS3 (DLC Issues)

Post » Thu Nov 15, 2012 9:05 pm

Ok online use has nothing to do with it? Then how about you disconnect your online network and see if you can purchase ANY dlcs and then come talk to me because developers have to sinc add ons with 360 or Ps3 for gamers to be able to purchase them and some systems are easier to do that than others.
So your PS3 is hard to code for comment was debunked so you came up with something equaly rediculous!? Good job moving the goal posts.

The internet is the same wherever you are. The only diferences you will see are your connection speed which has little to do with your console and quite a lot to do with your service.
So can we get hearthfire for free? You know the people that have been patiently waiting for any news on dawnguard for the past two months. It's only five bucks, and I'm sure it would be a drop in the bucket, considering however much money microsoft gave you to make Dawnguard an exclusive. That would bring me back.
No stop asking. Beth will not give PS3 players something for free that 360 players were expected to pay for.

You're giving the wrong answer, he mentioned Skyrim sold more on the Xbox than the PS3, and he's right, just over double. I'm going to hazard a guess that the problem is to do with the memory issue again, the PS3's memory isn't as flexible as the Xbox's and all this additional content +new models/animations/voice. I bet it's a nightmare to try and get it working when it's struggling with the vanilla experience.
Then maybe they should have opened the instructions that came with their DEV consoles and read them? They have had 7 years to learn how to code. They failed. At this point it is clear they didn't really try. Nor do they intend to do more than the base needs to make a port work.

The only thing Bethesda done wrong was re-use the gamebryo engine, the PS3 can't handle it due to Sony's hardware limitations.

My guess is that Dawnguard and Hearthfire will both be free on PS3 should they actually see the light of day. It would make sense for Bethesda to do this to say "Sorry" to the PS3 fans it has so far let down. Now keep in mind Bethesda never said it won't be released ..... they are not positive that Dawnguard and Hearthfire will see the light of day, that doesn't mean it isn't possible.

In all fairness though you can't lay 100% of the blame on Bethesda. It's partially Sony's fauly for having a difficult system to code for. If Sony/s system wasn't so hard to code for I can damn well tell you that the DLC will be released.

If both become free for the PS3 users there will be riots.

I agree the DLC should not be free on the ps3 it is unfair for Xbox and PC gamers.

Not really. I'm just wondering why there is so many topics since not many people bought Skyrim on the PS3 compared to the 360.

People with complaints are always the ones who shout loudest. It's always been that way. The people who are happy are often happy to not say anything at all. Plus, let's face it, what kind of war would erupt if 360 players started posting "thanks for 30 day exclusives and making DLC work properly for us" threads? I could see the PS3 community getting seriously riled up about it.

The PS3 players have a genuine gripe and want to vent and be heard, so we'll get a tonne of these topics. That's life and that's why we have mods to deal with it.

I only believe Hearthfire should be free to PS3 users if they can't get Dawnguard to work on PS3.

I agree. At most if they do get Dawnguard to work it should have a discount. That would be a good way to say "We messed up, sorry for the wait."

Awww, I'm sure somebody cares about you, even if y'all are the redheaded step-children of the ES fanbase.

To be honest, you screwed yourself over when you bought a George Foreman grill and expected it to play games.

Hahah hah hah - That grill plays every other game I own (85 at last count) just fine thanks.

Oh and it has an internal PSU as well, footwarmers went out with the C64 don't ya know. ;)

Ps3 isn't getting any DLC. Bethesda is inept at programming games, and xbox easy enough for them to code for.

Fixed that for you. Stop laying blame on the PS3. The specs have been known for 7 years. Beth chose to fail at coding for the PS3. Then lied about the ammount of time they spent doing the coding. Changing how you lay the blame is just going to continue to get debunked. 100% of it belongs in the lap of the devloper.

Honestly, I've lost all interest in dawnguard, I couldn't care less if it's released or not as I won't be buying it.
But, I hope that hearthfire is released on ps3.I think building ur own house is a great addition, just curious to see if u can base the design on certain things, eg build a house that the dwemer would have build etc.

From what I've read: no. There is a small house and a large addition to the house. Course the information I've read may be inacurate.

I'd really love to have Hearthfire on PS3, I'd love to have a pad for my Dragonborn. It would be awesome.


This is just a guess but... I'm guessing that Bethesda wil screw over PS3 users, again, with DLC. Hearthfire will be released for 360 and like Dawnguard, Bethesda will say nothing for a long time and then say that it can't be done, or that they're trying very hard. They announce new DLC, Hearthfire, for 360 again-which of course will probably never find it's way on to PS3 if we still haven't seen dawnguard months after it's initial release and have recieved inconclusive bad news regarding if it has any future on PS3 or not.

I'm very angry and disappointed with Bethesda. Bethesda asks for patience, but they don't deserve it anymore. They've screwed PS3 players over, and we've always been loyal despite the ridiculous amount of bugs in the games they release. Dirty business practices like exclusivity deals, intentional delays(not putting a strong team together to handle the PS3 issues and the deal with microsoft seems pretty deliberate to me), Inconclusive news(I'd rather just been given bad news than no news) All of this... is not a way Bethesda should treat their fans.

If PS3 users are never going to see any DLC, just say so Bethesda. Say that you've let us all down, say that you did it intentionally because you're in bed with Microsoft... And exclusivity DLC deals are a dirty business practice that puts the guys and gals at Beth in the same league with Electronic Arts.

So should I just trade in my copy of Skyrim now or what? I've already played through twice and if there is no more content coming my way I think I might as well get rid of this game even though I love playing it.

No Dawnguard, No Hearthfire, (Tonnes of bugs on the regular game though)... No reason for me to keep playing games made by Bethesda.

So all you other PS3 users: Don't get your hopes up.

uh sorry I was woozy while reading this but did you say "Don't get your hopes up" yeah there are massive problems with the PS3 Skyrim version plus they are also adding content at the same time so it's very challenging to do sorry it's GAME OVER for the PS3 on Skyrim it's September 1st already and people are either moving on which they should be doing or keep on complaining on the lack of pvssyr between Bethesda, Sony, and the fans of Skyrim

How does that makes sense? Discounted prices and even free DLC wouldn't make sense. If Beth is worried about losing the profits from not getting the DLC on the PS3, why would they give it away? Plus, there are a few more reasons why discounts and special offers are an absurd idea but I've been over this so many times I'm bored of it.

Always makes me chuckle that whenever there is a problem, the immediate reaction is 'you're trying to screw me over!!!', it's never 'aww damn, that's a shame but I understand'. To paraphrase a good friend of mine "Conspiracies, Conspiracies everywhere...".

Sometimes y'know, developers can just be having problems and aren't spending all their waking hours talking about it because they don't want to mislead anyone or get their hopes up when they don't have any concrete answers for you. I still think this whole farce is bogus, but I understand that this job isn't easy, especially not one as open as an ES game.

As it happens, I think the most likely outcome of this is going to be that PS3 don't get the DLC, (whether that is just Dawnguard or all of it remains to be seen) and instead Betehsda will work on remastering the game as it were, fix everything and get it all ready and working for the inevitable GotY edition instead.

So basicly screw PS3 and never do any work on it?

Wow i'm wonder if i should waste my live argueing with all you Xbox [bleep}s or just say "[bleep] all of you, xbox, pc, and Bethseda :swear: "



I"m going with the later
[bleep] all of you, xbox users, pc users, and bethseda. :swear:

Where exactly did I say anything even remotely like 'screw PS3'. Look around this forum a bit, I've posted a couple of times today that even though I don't like the PS3, I think it's BS what they've done, I've even said it here in the post you quoted, although I will admit, when I talked about this farce being bogus, you may have misunderstood, thought I was talking about the ranting when I was referring to Bethesda's handling of this mess.

Even if such is the case, I have said nothing that even hints at saying they shouldn't work on the PS3 version. I suggest that infact there is no conspiracy to screw over the PS3, and that they are infact genuinely working hard and having difficulties, and I siggest that I believe a possible outcome is going to be that they don't work with getting the DLC out now, rather they work hard at fixing all the problems, then just release it all for PS3 users in a GotY edition that is sure to be out about this time next year. At no point did I say they SHOULD do this, I just suggest I think it's what is going to happen.

Please, in the future, keep your indignation in check. I know you're PO'd, and I sympathize, I truly do. I may hate the PS3, but I don't by proxy wish that PS3 players are all going to burn in the deepest pits of hell listening to Justin Bieber on repeat whilst the rest of us lord over you with our delightful Skyrim DLC. I love Bethesda and I love Skyrim, I want everyone to be playing it and enjoying everything it has to offer regardless of platform of choice, and, even though i admittedly do love Bethesda, I'm not going to blithely sit here and say they haven't screwed up, because they have, but I'm also not going to sit here and agree with a group of upset gamers when they declare that this is a giant conspiracy aimed at anyone not smart enough to play on 360 and is part of some overall plot to takedown Sony forever.

Seriously dude, I get you're angry, I don't really blame you, but before launch a tirade against another member of these boards, try and get your facts straight, you're not really winning anybody over by blithely lashing out.
