Ok, this forum has really become nothing but a pit of anger and bitterness about the current lag issue on the ps3. So, rather then just [censored]ing about it some more, lets get some hard numbers as to how many people are experiencing this issue and when it starts. This will both demonstrate that it is a real problem, and give the devs important information about it. So, if you have suffered from this problem, post here with the following:

Number of hours you've played:
When the problem started (estimated):
Size of your save game:
To what degree the problem is manifesting, (ie slight slowdown in large cities to complete slide show at all times):


Mine,

Hours played: 40
Problem started: About 20
Save game: 7mb
Degree of problem: Moderate. Can become very choppy in large cities and densely populated areas, but usually alright in smaller places. Occasional spikes regardless.

45 hours
38 hours
12mb
Constant slowdowns in every part of the map after an hour of play. 10-15FPS with constant stuttering. Apart from small indoor locations.

This will not be in any way representative of the ACTUAL percentage of people affected. Obviously only people with a problem with the game will be visiting this forum, so it won't be in any way a fair reflection.

I'm in about 40 hours
6mb almost 7mb save size
Problem started this morning.
Game is really just unplayable. 8 minute load times when ever I enter a building or cave. Frame rate is so slow it takes a good 1/2 minute just to turn the character around or open a menu. I love this game but wow, this really svcks now I have to wait for a patch. Hope these guys get on this patch. If you don't care about the PS platform don't make games for it and I'll buy it on PC. But if you're going to make games for it, and problems happen, FIX IT.

Let's try to keep it in this one, please

Number of hours you've played: 95

When the problem started (estimated): 30 hours (6mb)

Size of your save game: was 11 now 10 for some reason

To what degree the problem is manifesting, (ie slight slowdown in large cities to complete slide show at all times): cities, open environments, more than 6 npcs.

Ps3 is 9 months old, no problems with batman/lbp2/saintsrow3/mw3/bf3/uc3 etc.

About 30-40 hours in.

size=6+mb

The low frame rate occurs usually exploring in the open world and in major cities like Whiterun, Riften, etc.

I agree, we don't need two of these threads, the other one is updated a lot.
