I m sure that all of you have felt this...how can I say this...''faceplam'' We have been TKO once more by Bethesda concerning the PS3 (lag, lag,lag,lag,lag,bugs,bugs,bugs,bugs,bugs, sound bugs, sound bugs..)
What a shame, and I was finally going to try an Elder Scrolls game. If they don't fix this game, I'm probably not going to buy another Bethesda anything, whether they're the developer or publisher, or whatever. Heck, I was already on the fence after New Vegas.
yes im probably not going to ever buy another bethesda game or even if they just partialy work on some one elses game not gonna happen i have a feeling most people think the same
Im just wondering if the issues stem from the size of the save file or the ammount of time spent on the game per session. If its the ammount of time spent then i wont mind as much.
Do you have solid data that it's a tiny minority? Cite your source.
And on the flip, do you have solid data that they aren't? Cite your source.
I was one of the "lucky" people with FO3, and now I guess Skyrim, that didn't experience one glitch (other than some random freezes) that anyone was/is talking about. Now, logically thinking, I can't for one second blame this on "luck." I'm thinking it's more like Mister Ped said above, that it's more likely about how long your session is than anything else. I'm a busy person, and so far my longest "marathon" of Skyrim was for 4hrs on release night. Maybe some of you experiencing these horrible lag issues and such need to give your console a rest every few hours?

This is just conjecture but it appears as though it's some type of memory leak problem and an excessive amount of data is being written/attempting to be written. This is causing save files to become overly large as well as consuming all the RAM the PS3 has. If you only play for a couple hours at a time it's likely that you'll be flushing the RAM before the buffer fills so you won't experience this problem as much or as often. I've actually disabled all the Autosave options but I only have about an hour of game time in since doing that so it's too early to report whether that improved performance or not.

No, I don't. That's why I didn't come on and claim that either a large minority or a large majority are having problems. What is obvious is that there is some type of issue causing a serious framerate/stutter problem but it's clear by the evidence of some people having it and some people not that we do not yet know what is the culprit that's initiating this.
