------------------------------------------------


It's new content for those specified platforms.

We're not getting into the specifics of what content is being released right now, but we are working on bringing content to PS3 and PC. It'll be content that's not already on those platforms.

To be clear, the tweet means there is new content for PS3 and PC users.

Mounted combat came within a title update. This is more than a title update.

No, not yet. But it is add-on content.
It has been http://www.bethblog.com/2012/08/02/dawnguard-ps3-update/ that the PS3 version will be delayed a bit as they are still working to ensure acceptable performance on the platform.


Gstaff, on 30 August 2012 - 06:52 PM, said:

Earlier in the month, we provided an update on Dawnguard's status for PS3.

It's been a few weeks, and we wanted to make sure everyone knows where we're at with Dawnguard. Skyrim is a massive and dynamic game that requires a lot of resources, and things get much more complex when you're talking about sizable content like Dawnguard. We have tried a number of things, but none of them solve the issue enough to make Dawnguard good for everyone. The PS3 is a powerful system, and we're http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1413248-ps3-release-for-dawnguard-thread-23/# to deliver the content you guys want. Dawnguard is obviously not the only DLC we’ve been working on either, so the issues of adding content get even more complicated. This is not a problem we’re positive we can solve, but we are working together with Sony to try to bring you this content.

We wish we had a more definitive answer right now. We understand the frustration when the same content is not available on all platforms. When we have an update, we will certainly let you know. We deeply appreciate all the time and support you have given us, and we’ll keep doing our best to return that.

Additional information from Pete Hines in response to Dawnguard:

"Yes, it’s just doesn’t perform well in all scenarios. Some folks would be fine, some would not.”

One of Bethesda’s top PR execs, Pete Hines, (who holds the position of VP of PR and marketing), tweeted to a question that concerned the release date, saying, “No, we will not release it if we can’t get the performance to an ‘acceptable’ standard. Our stance on this has not changed.”

According to Gstaff http://www.bethblog.com/2012/10/04/hearthfire-available-on-steam/comment-page-1/#comment-278242:

Friday, October 5, 2012 at 10:57 am:

We haven’t given up. We’re still working to see what’s possible.

Sunday, October 7, 2012 at 10:15 pm:

Our team is still working to make PS3 content available on PS and doing everything possible to make it a possibility.

The only news as usuall is Xbox news. I wish Bethesda would get their finger out and give some solid information.

If wishes were ponies... mounted combat wouldn't be glitchy...

What's the Vegas odds that the 360 gets DLC #4 before the PS3 gets their first one?

Vegas wouldn't take the odds, it's practically a dead cert!

That's if you can get into Vegas due to bugs and glitches and useless engine :biggrin:

Personally, as an Xbox user I feel guilty everytime I purchase a DLC, because Bethesda have just royally screwed you PS3 guys so badly. It's beyond a joke now, it's utterly appalling. In my opinion Bethesda have a cheek to expect you guys to even pay for the past 2 DLCs, if Dragonborn comes out on time for you, then fair enough but you guys deserve a serious ass kissing for being as patient as you have waiting for this, those of you who have actually stuck with Beth.

Are we talking New Vegas odds? How was the DLC distributed among the systems for that game? My guess is it'll be worse than New Vegas odds. Lol

Ass kicking? No. The DLC we've been waiting for yes. Beth needs the ass kicking and I've just put my boots on!

Just out of curiosity how much of a bung do you all think M$ gave Beth to further tarnish their reputation on PS3?

I'm surpised I've stuck around for as long as I have, my vote is..we make it to thread 51 and beyond. my head is held low..casue I have no light above me so it's hard to see the keyboard. I'd hope so.....I really...really want a crossbow and like three homes one shall be my hideout, one shall be stoage and third will be my home away from solitude.

They're making progress? Really? The only progress they're making is in alienating and frustrating PS3 users.

If they had made any kind of significant progress then they'd have information to share.
How many times have we been told "when there's information to share we'll be sure to let you guys know"?
Do we have any information? No. Ergo no progress. That's how I see it at least.

New Vegas took months for them to fix, less time than this. About 8 months I think.
Then they bolted on half baked bits to that engine and made Skyrim. Hence the further delays.

By fix I mean 'make it so you could go into New Vegas itself', the game's still riddled with bugs and crashes.

I'm sorry....but i honestly dont believe Bethesda is an EVIL company that is just trying stick it to the PS3 community. They have better things to do like Make money. Do you HONESTLY think that they are doing this to us on PURPOSE?? I'm sorry....but these are nothing more than Conspiracy theories...which i have always thought are nothing but trash.

I'm with this guy.

I expect some serious compensation for this crap. I would BARELY consider paying $15 for both Dawnguard and Hearthfire.
