Hello everyone, I'm not even sure if this is even a glitch, but for the first 5 hours or so every loading screen came up with a model and some text about the game. In the last 5 hours or so loading screens seem to be coming up blank, with just the smoke effect more and more often. It doesn't seem to effect loading times and I haven't had any freezes yet. It's not really a big deal for me but I am a little concerned with the increased frequency, it's up to around 50% now.

Also I've noticed a lot of wonky physics with the dragons, weird hovering and flight patterns and a few times it seams they were supposed to land yet continued to fly only to be pull backwards through the air rather quickly to land. Again this isn't much of an issue because I am a melee character and just try to stay alive until the dragon decides to land, but I can see this being a pain if I was using a ranged character.

I'm just wondering if this has happened to anyone else.

The loading screens with just the smoke has happened to me, several times. I never thought much of it. I figured that there are only a certain number of hints they could possibly give in the area. I've seen so many hints just repeating themselves, not that it is a bad thing really. But the loading screen still shows my level bar. So yea. Don't know if that is bad or not.
Yea, I just encountered some strange stuff today with the dragons. One dragon that flew over me when I was running around near Whiterun, it ended up flying around a bit, went THROUGH a mountain and then came back towards me. I think it would of just flown away as well (which I am guessing is possible, part of their AI) but I managed to hit it with a fireball as it was passing by causing it to get aggressive. But then it starts flying around in circles in a small circumference, slowly dropping altitude. By the time it reached the ground I had gotten it down to half health, and then some mammoths nearby came and helped :S

Ya that is what I was thinking, now that you mention it I'm not sure if my level bar is showing up when it is blank I'll check next time I play. I'm not to concerned about it yet as it doesn't seem to be effecting loading times or causing freezes, as long as that is still the case I don't mind it at all. Anyway it is good to know I'm not the only one.

Edit: Do your load screens seem to be area dependent, and give hints relating to your area? Mine all seamed to be generic.

Most of the time they are area dependent. Like I would get some useless fact about the Draugr when I enter a dungeon. Though sometimes verses of certain "well known" books appear. Or some information about the High king with a cool helmet. Once I had a hint about dragons, can't remember what it was exactly, but the item that appeared next to it was some wicked looking dragon helmet (actually made me decide to spend time smithing. I think they are generally generic though, I don't think it is that much of an issue, that is to say I don't think it means that your game is screwing up or anything.
