PS3 Release for Dawnguard, DLC etc... #36 : V - Skyrim

» Sun Nov 18, 2012 4:53 pm

Bethesda already said you will either get the entire DG DLC or nothing at all. They are not going to give you just pieces of the DLC and that goes for all of Skyrims DLC'S.

well they said that ps3 is getting ton of atention, This time I will not be so trustworth, I don't think some one can have something against it ....

It's been a week now with nothing new, nothing, Gstaff, Bethblog, the Devs and Tweet Hines have all gone mysteriously quiet again - I'm losing my patience

» Sun Nov 18, 2012 12:17 pm

Skyrim is soon (very very soon to speak Bethesdianese) going to be of absolutely no more interest to me. I mean there are so many good games coming (and have come) that without some new areas and quests the game will no longer be able to draw me back again. Beth has missed two great chances, November 11 and Thanksgiving (important for the US sales I imagine). The only thing we get is "We're working on it" and "Coming coon", but we've heard that till our ears bleed. No promises, just empty phrases.

With Dishonored, the Mass Effect Trilogy, Lego LOTR and Dragon Age 3 lining up, Skyrim will be passed down the line for me and put into my "Never to played again" drawer.

EDIT: I realised that Thanksgving isn't until next week, but since nothing has been announced by Beth yet, a release before Thanksgiving seems unlikely.

I got a game line up of my own right now, Halo 4, then next year Lighting returns, and Naruto ultimate ninja storm 3. In the gap between all those I got my retro library to work through.

I also hope that when/if Dawnguard is released on PS3 that they will have added an option in the menu where you an choose to not have vampire attacks.

I'm looking forward to Dragon Age 3! The other games in your line up I'm not so interested in. Dishonored is 'meh' in my opinion. I'm just going to put Skyrim into my 'To hard, will play in the future if the DLC and other problems get sorted' pile. I'm stoked about The Elder Scrolls Online though and going to buy a PC to play the fudge out of that game!

I have full confidence that Beth will deliver flawless content for the ps3 on dec 4.

Current consoles are garbage to began with ps3 included, You can drop a ps3 or 360 from 5ft up if the machine its the ground in the right spot, guess what its next stop will be your garbage can.

And that can't happen to a 2k pc because they are so much tougher?

My thoughts exactly.

The only two logical explanations are this:

1. An attempt to keep stringing people along to keep them interested and help them ignore the crappy support they've received on their console

or

2. It really is that close, but they don't want to commit to a specific date yet because it would upset the Xbox execs, someway somehow....

I don't think there is any NDA or gag order in place between MS and Bethesda. If there was they sure as hell wouldn't have said they had technical problems they aren't sure they could overcome. Makes them look as stupid as can be, I mean you gotta be completely moronic as a development team to get to June 2012 and THEN realize there are technical issues with the product you sold.

So I think if there was a non-disclosure in place they would just say 'we can not comment' or something, we wouldn't have heard anything about their technical issues.

I think it is really about #1, at first with all these tweets I was excited, but another week and just useless non-information posts from Gstaff and more silence from the rest of Bugsoftworks makes me think this is just some prep for black friday sales or something.

Like with the wait (for what ended up being 1.4) Beth just went complete quiet without giving a damn about how their customers were treated in the time period.

I have full confidence that Beth will deliver flawless content for the ps3 on dec 4.

wow. can you share please?

So bottom line I think is we were all like a dying man in the desert, desperate for anything to quench our thirst.. Bethesda collectively opened their car window and urinated in a dusty dry ditch on the roadside, we all scrambled to the ditch and now are just left with a bad taste in our mouth and STILL very subpar experience with this company.

I don't remeber any of the DLC for Oblivion or Fallout 3 breaking games for me. Then again I bought the GOTY Edition for Oblivion, but I bought all the DLC for Fallout 3. I had no issues besides the occational Freezes. My brother had an issue with Mothership Zeta where it would freeze everytime he tried to load but deleting the game data and redownloading the expansion cleared it up. I have 100% Trophies on FO3, and probably would have the same on Oblivion if they had added Trophies. Only issue I ran into on Oblivion besides the occational freezing is one of my many times through it the Orc fell off the Bridge in Skingrad and I couldn't buy the house but's hardley a game breaker.

Fallout New Vegas I never made it to the end of the regular game. It would freeze on me every 5 min at the point I was at and after about an hour and a half of getting nothing accomplished I put it in it's case and never touched it again. Never bought any expasion packs for that game so I can't comment on them.

As far as us only getting Dragonborn, I think that loading into a new area will help the RAM, the Main game of Skyrim is already taxing the RAM of the PS3, Adding in Dawnguard and Herthfire will make it worse. With Dragonborn they have the ability to unload the main game information out of the RAM to help ease the game performance.

JMO

you seriously had almost no issues with fallout 3 dlc's because almost everyone I know who has tried to platinum that game ragequit due to fps below 15 at least half the time and freezes every 5-10 minutes.

Because Bethesda doesn't believe in cool weaponry outside of the Bow, Sword, Mace, Dagger, and Axe realm.

Nope. Had some freezes but that's it. My PSN name is Letherface if you want to check I have 100%. I had the plat before the DLC came out. Don't think you need to beat the DLC to get the platinum trophy.

I know it's a long time coming, but we'll update you guys when we're ready. Prior to that, I wouldn't expect a peppering of hints & updates.

» Sun Nov 18, 2012 10:21 pm

Do you foresee us PS3 owners having some DLC before the end of the year?

» Sun Nov 18, 2012 7:16 pm

Please, at least, see if you can give them an explanation as to why they were left in the dark for so long

» Sun Nov 18, 2012 6:27 pm

How long will it take to get ready and is there any sort of time frame you could so kindly give us?

» Sun Nov 18, 2012 1:29 pm

If you have nothing to report please just tweet that once a week or something, it'll at least reassure people here that they aren't being ignored, it can just be as simple as:
Friday: No new progress made on PS3 DLC. or Friday: Progress made, will update you when it's been tested out.
