Should I download 1.3 or stick with 1.1 for now?

I am very hesitant to download 1.3, since from what i've heard, it just fixes what 1.2 broke. Apart from the the random misc quest glitch, and projectile, and floating glitches, i haven't really had any major ones, but the more i play it just seems i'm getting more and more lag. At first it was just in towns like Markarth and Rivten, but now it happens outside of towns when i'm just questing/wandering etc. I know people keep saying that Beth is not gonna fix the lag until 2012 but the update info reads "Genereal stability improvements" Is it me or does that mean a smoother running game? Anybody still have 1.1, and has encountered more gamebreaking or minor quest glitches farther into the game? Sure would like to know, so i could save me the hassle and just download 1.3 right now....Oh and just so anyone doesn't spoil anything for me, I've only been to Whiterun, Markarth, Windhelm, and Rivten.

No 1.3 will not fix lag or freezing. If you have avoided patch 1.2 then you don't need to download 1.3 as it fixes patch 1.2. You are very lucky. Unfortunatly the lag is most likely going to get worse before it gets better. Any problems come to the technical issues forum.

Coming from patch 1.2, I like 1.3. The lag is reduced and I haven't had a crash yet. on the PS3 btw.

But maybe if you haven't d/l'ed 1.2 you may not want to.
