Alright, so I thought I would contribute something productive to these forums in the midst of all the flaming towards Bethesda going on. Believe me, I would like to rage just the same, as I am NOT happy at all with Bethesda. Instead I decided to be constructive and start this, in hopes they actually look at it and address the new and old issues in the next patch. Post replies with any bugs/glitches you are experiencing and I will update the list accordingly. (be warned there may be slight spoilers on this list)



FREQUENTLY REPORTED BUGS

- Frame rate / performance issues still remain, takes longer to start happening than pre patch

- Shouts stop working, and upon trying to switch to a different one game tells player they are already shouting.

- Textures STILL not fully loading from time to time

- Magic resistance seems to have no effect anymore (mage type NPC's and dragon breaths damage not being mitigated)

- Poison resistance also has no effect anymore (now getting poisoned as vampire)

- Going to assume disease resist also has no effect anymore *need to confirm*

- Bookshelves broken, can not take books off them

- Armor stands STILL not displaying armor properly

- Issues with placing and removing weapons from weapon racks and cases.

- Getting a LOT of reports of overall decrease in graphics. Now I haven't noticed myself, but I'm seeing a lot of reports of it, so I figured it should go on here.

- Dragons fly backwards on occasion

- Shouts causing frame rate issues and brief lock ups (namely ice from)

- Problems finishing quests in the thieves guild if you misplace the armor before having tonilia upgrade it

- Auto saves created at the beginning sequence of the game STILL not labeled AUTO SAVE, causing people to mistakenly overwrite their gamesaves

- Players unable to start the quest (Reunification of Skyrim - regain winterhold hold) when speaking to the npc she does not start the quest and the cursor stays above her head as if you still need to talk to her to start the quest

- Learning Shouts out of order is causing them to bug out for some people.

- Game wide quest problems when getting quest items "too early"

- Sometimes when you load a save inside the whiterun house, ALL furniture dissapears

- Many Different quest items not being properly removed from inventory after completing quests (Rjorn's Drum, Pantea's Flute, an Orichalcum Ore, and the Glenmoril Witches heads, Finns Lute - just to name a few.

- Can't complete the Thane of Riften misc quest. The misc quest states I need to speak to the Jarl, but the Jarl has no dialog option for completing the quest. I was getting the dialog option to complete prior to buying a house in Riften. When I bought the house, the option disappeared.

- NUMEROUS problems with the Blood on Ice quest.

- Dark Brotherhood quest - dark brother hood forever. - if you walk up to the mother while ciciro is there he will talk over top of her making it impossible to hear whats going on.

- I finished the Loud and Clear perfectly, got the key, all items from the safe, and ONLY burned 3 bee nests, yet I CANNOT access Dampened Spirits at all. I am told to talk to Maven, but she's nowhere to be found. Now, I cannot progress through the Thieves Guild missions.

- Frequent Crashes on autosaves

- Traversing through doorways spawns character a significant distance farther in than normal (For Whiterun examples, behind Belethors counter, the fireplace in the Bannered Mare, or at the alchemy lab in Arcadia.

- Red Eagle quest - After taking the sword, unlocking the cave and killing Red Eagle and collecting the now changed Bane sword, when I went back to the Briarheart who had the sword.. he mysteriously spawned 2 more Red Fury swords.. minor... but odd

- On the final Larceny item for the Thieves Guild, I looted both Eyes of the Falmer (left and right) off Mercer Frey, but neither triggered the task to sell it to Delvyn. When I go to him, there's no conversation option to sell it to him, and they are both regular items I can drop, sell, or store instead of one being a quest item

- College of Winterhold quest: Staff of Magnus/Enter Labyrinthian - the ghosts that are supposed to stand near the entrance never appear, therefore, I cannot get in

I managed to take all the books, however they also remained on the shelf, so it appears like there are now 2 copies , one in my inventory and one on the shelf
You can no longer activate the bookshelf or read or remove books.

I guess they were trying to fix the book glitch

Bump with updates

here my request list for stuff that still needs patching (with links to my original posts)

- Weapon switching times 3x slower on ps3 than on PC

-My horse 'Frost' keeps detecting me when I'm sneaking
http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1296447-my-horse-frost-keeps-detecting-me-when-im-sneaking/

- Darkbrother hood armor - tumblerbane gloves - for me when equipped my hands are floating on the model. [img]http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b122/micronink/game%20stuff/photo.jpg[/img]

-lighting in the game seems to have gotten darker for some reason. even during the day when I'm on shadow mere my toon looks solid black

-Darkbrother hood quest - kill the chef - if you murder him while he's sleeping without talking to him sometimes he will immediately glitch under the bed. making it impossible to drag his body.

-Darkbrother hood quest - dark brother hood forever. - if you walk up to the mother while ciciro is there he will talk over top of her making it impossible to hear whats going on. Also if you have subtitles on depending how close the jester is to the coffin his subtitles will display instead of the mothers.

-World events with dragons - sometimes you'll be fighting a dragon, have it almost killed and it just flies away too fast for you to run / ride to catch up to it.

-game still freezes for me at times. just bought this 2 days ago haven't gotten that far yet. Saved game size is only 5 megs.

-over all graphics are noticeably lowered in resolution than before when I first started playing 2 days ago. - This actually really makes it tough for me at times since i'm color blind and since lowering the gfx the world lighting seems to be affected also, so some areas its hard for me to make out what is what. so i just run around with my night vision power (cat race) on most of the time and constantly use the shout that shows life aura of enemies in red.

-lock picking - not sure if this is a glitch or not but on chest, if you fail then try again the lock changes. Don't think this should happen. why should the location of the sweet spot change every time you fail? makes it impossible to open stuff at times. also sometimes after a success I noticed skill points don't go up even if the lock is above your skill level.

-was having a problem with the start button not working at first. but it seems that once i did a new save with patch, not auto save. turned game off reset PS3 and then loaded the save has fixed the problem of journal not working.

- still occasionally get an invisible head when equipping the Arch mage robes and Mask of Morokei

Great work at compiling the list of issue that we are all experiencing.

Hopefully we will see a response from them soon enough.

I got a letter off of a courier in Whiterun, and it seems he's stuck there now. They normally walk off but he just stood there. I waited for an hour near him and he changed position slightly but still wouldn't move around. Went in my house, slept till next day and he was still there.

Will check if he's still there tonight when I get on the PS3 and will let you guys know probably tomorrow. Hopefully this doesn't affect recieving letters from couriers.

Is follower leveling still broken?

-Frame rate / performance issues still remain, takes longer to start happening than pre patch +1 for me too.It's the most crucial for me.

Great, keep them coming guys. Even if you see your bug on the list, still feel free to report it here to [hopefully] let bethesda see the extent of users effected by bugs

For the most part, I haven't encountered any new problems since the patch. Lag is much better, but not fixed. There are still major problems that need to be addressed, however:

- Game still freezes for me whenever an enemy conjures a frost atronach
- Cragslane cavern. If you've cleared it before taking the skooma quest in Riften, the quest becomes impossible.
- Ragnvald. When I first entered, the skulls were already showing in place on the sarcophogus. I recovered both keys from the gaurdians, placed them in the slots, and nothing happened. I can't get the Word, so I can't get any new Word locations from Arngeir. The dialogue option doesn't even appear.
- Game still occasionally freezes when entering new area or (once) while trying to save.
- This may not be a glitch. I'm 80 hours into the game and have encountered only one random dragon attack. I fought the scripted dragon outside Whiterun, and another on a Word quest from High Hrothgar, but only one attack other than these. So now I have several Words, but no souls to unlock them.
- Pathfinding for companions still svcks.
- After the patch, a lot of new areas showed up on my map as "discovered" though I'v never been to them.

However, I've had no problems with textures, or shadows. My bookcases work fine. I fought a fire-using opponent last night, used a potion of fire-resistance and it seemed to work fine. I can still buy and sell, still drop things (not sure if they remain there permanently, though.) My save games are remaining at about 9.7 to 9.8 mb. Overall, I'm happy with the patch, I just wish they had fixed more. The broken quests are particularly irritating. I'd start a new game, but I've invested 80 hours in this thing, and I don't want to think that time was wasted.

Oh ok. I thought you were just supposed to post new ones lol. Well, I haven't been able to play too much since the patch, but i'm pretty sure magic resistance is messed up. I fought a Dwemer Centurion and it's breath attack just dropped me in seconds. Before the patch Centurion's breath wasn't much of a threat to me.

I'm going to put tags on this list for the issues that a lot of people are having, so they can see whats most important.

Ahh I see. Good idea.

Okay these are my problems:
- I still get frame rate drops now and then...
- Textures sometimes don't load properly (happens every time with my Vokun mask)...
- Shouts cause FRAME RATE DROPS EVERYTIME (really annoying).
- I have to press X multiple times in order to talk to NPCs.
- Tolfdir doesn't sell me alteration spells above Novice Level... (And I'm like 50 in Alteration)...

Just managed to get on the game for 5mins (after a ton of ear-ache caused by a wailing wench) and the courier is gone now. Sorry for the premature report. Probably just a minor glitch rather than a bug.

-severe lag if dragon flies behind a mountain
-you cannot go to jail in markarth after completing the "No one escapes cidhna mine" quest, nor pay off your bounty forcing me to kill all of the guards
-companions side quests are still bugged, i CANNOT complete the Animal Extermination quest "clear out Greenspring Hollow" cause i've already killed the sabre cat adventuring
-the "marked for death" shout didn't work a couple of times on a dragon that was airborne and on the ground
-hits don't register even though i hear them connecting

-Still impossible to marry Lydia

there still something wrong with the memory handling, last nite i left my home in riften and headed up the road to the pawn shop to get rid of some dragon scales. i sold all i could untill the shop owner only had 57 coins left. then i fast travelled to a mission. right away i get into a fight with some mages. long story short, half way through the fight a dragon shows up and swoops down and takes my last bit of health and i die.
i didnt save and dont have any auto save on, so i load up my last save, back at my riften home again, and i go back to sell my dragon scales in the pawn shop, only thing, the shop keeper still only has 57 coins.

memory isnt being reset properly after you load up a save after dying, iv read about others having this problem even before the patch too. stuff like that shouldnt happen, and thats why we still get lag after 4 or 5 hours since the patch, not handling the memory properly....., thats just one way it manifests

You can't activate a new stone on ps3 post patch. the stone doesn't ask you if you want to it just lights up and the old stone stays active.

I've noticed this as well....in a different way. For example: I'll use a potion to try and heal myself,change weapons whatever. If i die and reload when I open the menu to use that same potion , it's already selected. The potion menu should open at the top on a reload, or be where I saved it last at least. It shouldn't remember what i was doing when i died and carry that info over to a reload.

Also ... again weapon racks are glitchy and not working in my game.

--I'm noticing that sometimes sound effects are not consistent, sometimes when I attack someone or I'm attacked, there's no sound at all or if I shoot an arrow no sound either. This was before the patch. Does not seem to be combat related only.

--The dark brotherhood cowl does not show a face mask, only seems to work for females (Astrid or Initiate) but doesn't show up for males. There's a regular version and a maskless version, and they both have no mask and look the same.

yeah, i get u... and i wonder if this sort of thing happens on the pc or 360, if not, then it could be something contributing to the ps3 issues. how can they let something so basic slip through, i wonder what else under the bonnet like this is going on that isnt so easily noticeable.

I am vampire and I got poisoned
