It's still a minority when held against the people who actually like the feature. People who like it are far less inclined to say something than people who don't.

That's just simple high-school level Psychology. If a majority of the people actually didn't like it, then the Forums would be awash with new, temporary accounts from people who would come here, give their two cents about how crappy it is, and then leave again.

But the advice I read earlier still makes very good sense.

If the attacks ruin the DLC that much, simply delete it and play vanilla Skyrim. No one would look at you twice for taking that route, and it's probably send a stronger message as well.

But as I've said before, I'm not going to seriously argue the point. It's your game, do what you do. The advantage to playing a single player game vs. a multiplayer game is that the only idiot I have to deal with is myself.

Everyday, more and more people that haven't been here before are coming to the forums to join these topics. I'm wondering how much more will join before people start realizing that this problem will not be within a minority of players any longer.

You're straw-manning - the poll on here clearly demonstrates most people want the feature but do not like the way it's working.

And on what basis are you claiming it's only a problem if masses of people sign up on this particular forum to moan about it? We've already seen a couple of new people, which is pretty unusual and hasn't happened with loads of other known problems regular people have moaned about.



If the game you just bought is ruining your game, just don't play the game you just bought. Great advice there chief.

Because game companies cater to the majority, not the minority.

That's why there are Beta tests.

That doesn't mean anything. It's the same people posting over and over...

So the beta testers...who tested for ONE week were able to find every single bug in the DLC before it released?

Compared to the same three people defending this feature.

Two weeks, and yeah, or at least a vast majority of them. Had you seen the Big Report Index, you would know how much work we put in to get as many bugs and glitches found so that they can be fixed in turn by the Devs.

Congratulations, you still could not have found every single bug, especially the rare bugs. Seeing as the "majority" has had no issue with the attacks, it stands to reason that a bug may be behind the repeated attacks causing the ghost towns. Not everyone could get this bug, not even all characters could get this bug. If it is indeed a bug, then why shouldn't it be fixed simply because you didn't have it?

Dear lord, you people are still going on about this?

Have you considered maybe writing to Bethesda instead of fighting amongst yourselves? The latter accomplishes next to nothing, really...

Not necessary. The forums are are decent indicator of feedback. I agree that arguing is pointless, but the poll we had yesterday was quite helpful. 90+ people wanting it fixed and 22 people wanting the feature left alone. That's saving Beth a lot of trouble figuring out whether people like their stuff or not.

The people who want it left alone is claiming that everyone else is a vocal minority, I find that quite amusing.

IT's not a bug though. so we didn't report it. The DLC was written that way, and frankly in the Beta test, no one had a problem with the frequency of the attacks.

I know Beth folks derp around on the forums here and there, but I guess I just expected this to be laid to rest by now.

I just spent 3 hours fast traveling city to city, town to town and have had 0 attacks. It obviously happens, Im not arguing that. My question is how this game mechanic functions. How can some people have endless attacks that are unavoidable and some of us cant even instigate an attack? Is there something some players are doing in game that somehow conflicts with the game's random attack generation pattern? After a few days of this being out and all the playtime across everyone's consoles it would be logical that the rate of these attacks would show a uniform rate instead of this wildly different experience. I have yet to have a wild werewolf encounter for that matter. i walk almost everywhere aside from trying to provoke a vamp attack, and nothing.

apparently this isn't the case: "Well many Beta Testers have been complaining since the Beta so maybe before buying everyone should have waited for them to "warn" you all. But it doesnt matter because NONE of you would have listened anyways so therefore trying to botch the sales is not going to stop the next guy from getting it either"
Also it's your assumption that the majority of people like it, when the fact is no one knows how many like it or don't
A two week beta is a very short time to see the ramifications of a longer term problem....the possible depopulation of cities/towns

I'm on 360 and was just about to get it today after being paid. Luckily I read the Kotaku review and while I wasn't about to let most of the nonsense the reviewer wrote put me off purchase, it did link to the many threads on here about this issue. Hence I shall not be purchasing today or any day until this feature is fixed. So the warning does kinda work. Thanks!
