Dawnguard Rushed.......

Post » Mon Nov 19, 2012 5:00 pm

i dont feel they rushed it however there is a plethora of oversights such as no ancient falmer helmet or ancient falmer weapons that falmer paladin whom i forgot his name looks rather odd with a modern elven weapon that he would have had to leave the vale and risk being killed by some nord to get. and lets not forget the vampire attacks on the cities that eventually leave a city lifeless i get the feeling they didnt think they thought that one through well enough. and last but not least the lack of any updated beast race vampire models.

0.5GB for 1600MS isn't really moneys worth.
Your seem a bit unhappy. Wait- it's because you're trying to sound like a hardass, if you don't think the content is worth the MSP, then don't buy it.

Oh! and just to think.. when it comes to PC, it's quite well possible that the cut content will be coming out as a modification. :biggrin:

Since when does file size have anything to do with getting your money's worth?

IIRC, Minecrft is 145 MB and costs 1600 MS, just saying. Also, I think Shivering Isles was only .3 GB bigger than Dawnguard, but I can't check right now.

-Add Wild Vampire Lords to replace Master Vampires at high levels.
-Add Ancient Falmer Helm and Weapons
-Add a Special Questline about the Snow Elves that can be done via the Snow Elf you meet in Dawnguard.
-Add Daedric Crossbows, and bolts, that can only be gained via Dremoras. Also, a small chance that a Summoned Dremora Lord will have a Daedric Crossbow.
-Remake Revered Dragons (I think they look ugly and extremely creepy)
-Fix Glitches.

Agreed! I want uber enemies that top-tier level 81 players struggle with. I don't care if it's inconsistent with the lore, just give me at least one challenge worth bragging about.

Fight 3 Legendary Dragons all at one time on Master than tell me that Bethesda didn't gave ye' a challenge worth bragging about....

Do yu think Bethesda should stop rushing their games to meet their original appointed deadline and stop "cutting content" or do you prefer how they have been doing it so far? Edit: Also tell me what you would change to make the dlc more fun for everyone??

I was more than happy with Skyrim considering I have been playing it since release, and Dawnguard is even more to my liking since they added so many of the little finds and quests that I like to find when exploring, as well as all the new areas and things and more obvious things to do. The DLC did not feel rushed to me, neither did I think it anything to do with anything cut from the main game. As all the complaints have already made obvious, Dawnguard is a different sort of experience to the main game, and definitely more for the experienced players. Would be nice to get less glitches, but games this big and complex are bound to have them these days, and I am used to it. I would rather have the game and have the glitches fixed later than wait an extra four odd years while they beta test the thing to find all the glitches possible.

I feel the same, like only 3 enemies at a time in the Soul Cairn, although from all the lag I've got from the DLC recently I don't think the Xbox could handle more than 10 at a time.

I was really expecting a seen right out of Dawn of the dead or Army of darkness where your just hacking and fighting wave after wave of undead. Throw in a couple uber boss enemies to lead the undead army and BAM instant panic, but instead I walk through the Soul carin like I owned the place. :down: But the Soul carin wasn't the only spot that gave me that empty feeling, there where several other places that could have used a couple more NPC's to face.
Another thing that's started to bug me is the vampire side, as you go through you face the DG but you also face groups of vampires :blink: To me this is very silly, it would be like doing the DG side and having to fend off both vampires and other DG members, why is it then as a vampire you are not only facing the DG but also other vampires all dressed in the same vampire armor that your wearing and all the members of Horkon's court? :blink:

Everything with Bethesda is rushed to do back room dealings with console companies wanting it out sooner for their specific console.

Cutting content?

Only things they cut were the ancient falmer helm and castle upgrades which they really didnt since fort dawnguard upgrades little by little when you do the quests and Castle Volkihar, you can open the path to the garden, can't really do much to fix up a fancy castle which already looks better than all the other player homes.

They gave us everything they promised, people ASSUMED werebear and spears and what not were gonna come with it.

People might take you more seriously if you stop contradicting yourself in the same post.

I don't think Daedra should have crossbows.

Its mainly a Dwarven, and Imperial thing.

Copiers gonna copy. The Imperials copied the Dwarven's crossbows. And it bound to happen during or after the Oblivion crisis cause a Dremora could've picked up a Crossbow from a dead Imperial and be all like "We should make these!"

I disagree with altering the revered dragon and the daedric crossbow, the dwarven corssbow is, and should remain the strongest because the crossbow is the most advanced weapon in tamriel so makes sense that the dwarven crossbow is strongest and anything more powerful than what the dwarven crossbow already is would be stupid (correct me if i'm wrong but doesn't the dwarven crossbow do more damage than the dragonbone bow)

You're right. The Enhanced Dwarven Crossbow is stronger than a Dragonbone Bow, which is stronger than a Daedric Bow.

There is really no point in adding a Daedric Crossbow.

Everything they've put out in recent memory has been a rushed, buggy mess.

Ambitious games? Sure
Quality? ...kinda
Attention to detail and stable games? [censored] no.
