Dawnguard Beta - Thread #22 : V - Skyrim

» Sat Jun 16, 2012 6:01 am

So guys, do you think Dawnguard is going to be Archery based, and do you think the other DLC will focus on the certain weapon types?

Could be, I mean considering the new vamp skills and no doubt you'll be going up against V-Lords, it will be pretty dangerous to engage in close quarter combat

Everyone is so determined to get a code, but do half of you actually intend on reporting bugs? i've seen it way to often that people want to get in a beta just to play it sooner than everyone else and they don't care about reporting bugs or any issues in the gameplay. I have been in 8 beta testings and would generally report no less than 10 issues a day. Beta testers shouldn't think that they are there just to play the game and see if they encounter a bug. A good beta tester should go in and try to break the game. When I'm in a beta test, I have a pen and paper beside me at all time to record everything about the bug/glitch/exploit. It's about making something awesome even better. Please, if you get into the beta testing, don't waste all of your time playing the game. Looks for issues, dig for them, do skill/spell combinations that you normally wouldn't do. TRY to break the game and report it.

I totally disagree i have tested many beta's and in my personal opinion the best way to find a bug or glitch is to play it as you normally would but just pay more attention to things around you that you normally wouldn't.

i beta tested gears of war using that technique and the amount of bugs and faults that would just pop up was amazing whereas if i was looking for these things i know for a fact i would never have noticed them so it's better not to force them but to let them flow into your beta.

but i do agree that all those that signed up with no intention of reporting bugs or faults should seriously think again because at the end of a day you still have to pay for the game but with your feedback and knowledge so that you make the game better for those eager fans awaiting it on it's release date where they expect it to be perfect.

Wow when I got off it was thread #15. Man these threads fly by.

I don't think it will be archery based, but archery will probably get the most new things, mainly becasue they only have bows and thats it right now.

I wouldn't normally get this dlc except that it is made for me if it does focus on archery. I love. to play as a vamp archer and contracting the disease is harder than you think as an argonian

3 Hours, 77 health potions, and 4 vampire dens later, my bosmer still isn't infected /:

My only complaint. Why no jyggalag shrine

Exactly, I literally stood still and just let her go at me and guess what? I probably waited like 5 hours in-game.

Too bad you can't ask someone to give it to you like in OB

» Fri Jun 15, 2012 6:31 pm

Oh noooo
I'm an idiot i signed the beta than made a bethesda forum account. Starting to hope I have a slim slim chance still. I was going to bug report the crap out of it.

I had a friend who had that problem. (nord)
Luckily I got it on the third drain health spell the first one cast. (dunmer)

Because the Greymarch ended and it is now only Sheogorath. Jeez, pay attention.

» Fri Jun 15, 2012 6:42 pm

It's probably going to be out tomorrow. Anyone want to bet on the hour the e-mails go out? I'm going with 12 PM.

Jyggalag is still alive and kicking. I do say however that Jyggalag (as far as we know) is not a part of this DLC and such should not be discussed here.
