Too bad they never reveal anything and can't give straight answers to simple questions.

That's a skill they've been honing since the beginning of TES.

1600 MS points is a bit too steep of a price especially in Canada. For $19.99 + tax (Ontario is 13%) we only get 1400 MS pts which is bogus... So I have to go out and pay for a 2400 MS pts card. We don't get 1600 like you Americans do. Hopefully I get into the beta.

I'm sorry, but I have a feeling you are lieing. Something in your post feels off

For a second there I thought you were gonna write "It helps that I'm Canadian: that means I'm used to disappointment."
I was gonna lose my [censored] laughing.

FU longknife :stare:

How much content is Dawnguard going to contain? Because if it's like a proper expansion then I suppose you can justify a bit extra. Kinda suchs about how they sell MS points for you D:

Something you all have to remember is that this isnt a atta'boy or thankyou, the bata (and the gaming industry) is a bissness. The math works out right too, they said that less than 1% of the applacants made it in, so figure about 600-1000 people were given codes (out of that is about 25% of people that would accualy be helpful as a bata tester, and there is no way of knowing who those people would be, dispite when they got onto this fourm). Also figure about 80% of the people that are going to play (aka buy) the DLC (on xbox) probaly applyed for the bata. Sence the people that got into the bata are getting it for free, they couldnt give alot more bata codes, that would eat into the profits of the project, and would be unfair for us the players to ask them to do, they simpaly just worked too hard and long on it to give it out for free. That being said, i wouldnt mind a pre-relase, paid-into access to the bata in a few days or a week or so... hint hint, wink wink, cough cough, nudge nudge......

Same, the other gaming websites I joined, tend to have a lot of people who bash Bethesda's games...and I can't really talk to them since Elder Scrolls and Fallout tend to be games I like to talk about

I have noticed this and don;t understand, I love Bethesda games :<

In the words of "Lord Sheogorath: Time for a celebration... Beta codes for everyone! Wait, Scratch that. Beta codes for no one. That can be just as much of a celebration, if you don't like Betas. True?" (Copyed from his Cheese for Everyone speech)

Y'know, a lot of bugs ain't a good sign- more to fix, which takes longer

» Sat Jun 16, 2012 5:56 am

Thank talos :smile:

Makes me feel better, admittedly...

so I wonder what kind of interesting bugs people will run into.

Too be fair quite the opposite, There were bound to be a lot, hence the beta. The more that are reported the less people will have to deal with when it comes out, I'd rather wait an extra 2 weeks after the 26th for a better release than one riddles with bugs

They stated before that they want to make "meaty" DLC, IIRC also stated they would be Shivering Isle sized expansions, however; Known features of DG right now include a crafting update, new perks, and of course the story. :tongue:

Or you could go and stroke a bunny rabbit,... or pick flowers or just do something less angry and ragefilled? :biggrin:

or just listen to this for the past 5-7 hours Like I have been: http://www.rainymood.com/
