Expansions announced yet?

Post » Sun Jun 10, 2012 1:16 am

I have said the sane thing in threads like this at different points.
Well, that's pretty much the definition of trolling though. It's really not an opinion at all. He wasn't even asking anyone's opinion about if they wanted expansions. Just asked if they were announced. The answer is no. Thread pretty much over. Deciding to come into the thread to discuss shortcomings of the game has nothing at all to do with the topic.

He think they should fix the bugs before they add in an expansion, he really did not go overboard and blow what he was feeling out of proportion, he made a simple statement regarding his opinion on what should be done. I feel the same way like I said before I feel the same way and I have mentioned that in my last post, I think its wise to let your opinion be heard otherwise the devs might overlook the glaring bugs in this game in favor of expansion packs that could be even more bug ridden. Trolling in my opinion is if your being offensive or intensively annoying on purpose and his post did not strike ne as one such post.

Theyve been more tight lipped than a 40 year old virgin about the DLC....a hint would be nice, SOMETHING, I knew about fallouts expansions MONTHS ahead, this though, is ridiculous.

what do you think the expansions will cover?
Hopefully Akavir since it was a hot topic for the blades and a book or two ingame. Besides, it's the Blades and Dragon homeland. I'm also hoping for Hermaeus Mora or Hircine's realm. Revisiting Morrowing would also be neat.

I do have to say that if you consider that beating the game is too fast, than honestly, you reall have not played. There is so much more than the main quest, caves to explore, bandit bounties to collect, ect ect ect. I always sit down figuring that Im going to get a certain thing done and the next thing I know, I'm svcked into another quest that is conviently along the way. Don't just play the game to grind through and to beat it, play the game that took them oh what, about 4 to 5 years to develop and create?

As for expansions, I do hope that they would open up some more various landscape, maybe Elsyier(hope I spelt that right). Also, I personally think it'd be kinda cool if they could make a feature in the house where you can loot the dragon head and mount it on your wall in your house over your fire place, or at least do it w/ the animals that you hunt. I would like to see them bring back the spell making concept, that was a very nice touch. And while I'm being oh so demanding, maybe allow all 3 maps to become linked, morrowind, oblivion, and skyrim, now that'd make it really interesting.

That's just not true. and i'm not assuming. if he wants dlc that means he's gotten past the MQ.
Few other copies? so you're telling me only 5 copies work? No. not true. i've never had a game or quest breaking glitch. and RAD's Ps3 copy works fine. like 30 of my buddies including my girlfriend bought the game across all platforms and all of them work and they even glitch them. like getting out of the map to Cyrodill etc.

just because you and your friends haven't experienced them doesn't mean there not there. why do you think Bethesda is releasing a patch for it? are they fixing something that works fine or are they bug fixing. think of it logically; they are bug fixing they are fixing bugs that have been in the game the blood on the ice quest wont be complete able after a certain point. the quest for the unusual stones wont be completable after diplomatic immunity and they are fixing the save issue ps3 has causing lag spikes. these are some of the glitches that are in the game no game is with out glitch

they will not release a DLC till they are happy with the game and move on chances are they already have a team going ahead and a team fixing the bugs

My copy works. and so do alot of Skyrim game copy's. and the OP's so stop trollin.

He isn't trolling though.. Because every PS3 copy is a broken copy.. That makes it like 20% of all copies of Skyrim are broken..

I'm guessing the DLC, will include the area, where you walk under a bridge, then walk about 10 feet, then you cannot go any further, yet you see the path way continue on, and head down a hill.

Not sure where i was, but it screamed add on area.

FPS players....exploration and dialogue (story) is boring...etc. But they will move on soon and the real community will assemble ...and then the mods! And expansions! Yes it will only get better.
I've player 80+ hours and barely scratched the surface of the game.

LOLs I have played every TES ever made logged thousands of hours, I see a ton of bugs, issues, lazy script, flaws in skyrim. How am I not real community? Is real only the "OMG it's flawless the bugs and errors were intended until they fix it then we will stop saying it was intended and flawless crowd"? Is saying 10/10 with game breaking issues real? I am of a sudden at a loss.

And yeah until they fix things like crashes, quest breaking, rendering issues, etc etc etc any expanding would only add to the problems. Go back in forum history after every patch and before any patch there was a guy/gal just like you saying blah blah they are just picky/whining/FPS playing/cat hating/n00bishly silly/too old, until the next patch came out fixing the issues talked about then it's on to doing it all over before the next patch.

I'm not sure why wanting it to work well is bad or means we don't want to play or love the game? it would seem to me that taking the time to come here asking for it to work better shows we want to play?

Nope they need to fix the main game before they break a expansion.

Agreed, I can't even finish my game.

So I'm trolling because my copy of skyrim is almost unplayable you think the OP's game is not glitched a bit even though he didnt say one thing about that and almost every person who plays skyrim has had a quest breaking quest Stop assuming. and it's called a joke.

I was definately dissappointed that my first play through had a few quest's glitch on me but when you look at it from an outside perspective, I did over 300 quest's and only 4 or 5 glitched on me, that's about as close to perfection as you can expect from a game as massive and in depth as this. Calling it unplayable is a stretch, annoying, yes, dissappointing maybe. BUT the fun in this game is replaying it, for a 2nd, or 3rd time and still finding new things to discover, and after a 2nd or 3rd playthrough you can avoid almost all the bugs you came across in your first play through.

Id rather have to much to do and have some glitches, rather than having a smaller less expansive game with almost no problems.

Patch 1.4 fixes some not all game breaking issues I kind of think the failure/crash to/at load issue would be game breaking. Given the fact Beth paid staff to make a patch (not even the first) would tend to suggest 1. You got lucky and just because your is not broken doesn't mean others aren't. Or 2. A lot of people are just not playing it right/picky/whiners/stupid/unable to tell the game is about a blank screen. Or is it 3. Beth just likes to make patches.

ive played trough multiple times wanna see long download arena 6million square kilometers of map
but yeah felt like i got through the mainquest too easily under 50 hours and most of the guilds are mere 10 hours of playtime

MQ 50 hours......which is longer than most sp games in itself.
Guild quest lines 10 hours each.......so two of them gives you the sp experience some other games do.

I just don't get the complaining.

Why should fixing bugs not be at the forefront of an expansion topic. A patch is adding to the game. It's fixing what was poorly done or broken.

So you have never veered slightly off topic, ever, good for you. No there is nothing wrong voicing your opinion as long as its civil.

dont you think if they where announced they would be the talk of the forums already?
Nope, I didn't think so at least. Reading this forum for the first time in a few months the date on the sticky topics are not even for this year and since the game already came out I wondered if the devs just moved on to making a new game already.
Kind of glad someone started a topic about this since I held off on buying Skyrim because of the mentioned DLC before the games release. I'm kind of hoping it'll come on a phsyical disk like Oblivions or Morrowinds expansions had, some news about it would be awesome so I can figure out if I should just buy the game already which I've really wanted to do.

Why shouldn't they be? Because every third thread in this forum eventually ends up talking about bug this or bug that. As someone with almost 4k posts, I'm shocked you're not aware of the bug sub-forum. Maybe voice bug concerns there where it's supposed to be? lol.

Here, i'll help ya out. :)

I am very well aware of them I frequent them often. Thanks for the gesture of good will.

I just think its worth noting to those that think expansions should cone first that bugs and glitches should be fixed and patched first. There is only a few post in various threads regarding bugs they are worth mentioning if they pertain in some way to the topic, as ling as its constructive and the as long as the person posting does not go over the deep end being rude.

You and me obviously have different views on what is and isn't appropriate regarding what type of post should go in a thread.

ok i didnt feel like going cave diving through the forum archives so I'll ask has there been any news on skyrim expansions i know bethesda dropped earlier expansions within a couple months so any news

They're still working on getting the patches nailed down... why would they do anything with expansions yet?

That being said, I'd imagine that there's a healthy contingent of the developement team dedicated/charged with creating the first expansion to Skyrim. And lets all remember, Bethesda said that with this game they are wanting to add onto the game with expansions closer in nature to Shivering Isles than say... Deepscorn Hollow or The Knights of the Nine. Apparently, when they say they want an expansion, they are shooting big (which is good for us)!!!

But frankly, as much as I love Bethesda, they really need to get their patches spot on before they ever think about releasing an expansion.

Well they have just released a patch...and intend releasing more...as well as tools to allow us to alter the game in any way we like...even build a new game. I dont know what more you can want. I have 90 hours up and no problems. I read loads of post from people saying they have hundreds of hours up and no problems.
But most of all...remember...this is a computer game....a program in a computer. Reflect on that. I bet you can see loads of glitches in any game (or program) you choose to scrutinise with your critical eye; in the real world too. Living and playing life and compouter games requires a little cooperation with things...and in computer games a suspension of the overly critical attitude you seem to have.
None of those who enjoy the game are saying it's perfect...the modding community will have lots of scope to improve almost every aspect of the game; but Bethesda have produced one of the finest games ever...(but not perfect).
I'm awed and grateful to them.
What pisses me off most of all is the graceless spoilt brat attitude of entitlement that comes across is so many negative posts on this forum...
(I am not necessarily including you in that assessment)

Bethesda got their retaliation in early..."let me guess...someone stole your sweetroll"
