anyone have a idea or new about the next patch,
i got piss evrytime i cant get a dragon soul from a drong or when i get with bugs on quest ( i hate to use Console Commmands to fix it )

I feel lucky as I haven't come across a single bug yet....

The amount of "new patch" threads popping up lately has increased. It's a sure sign that the community is beginning to feel uneasy with all these delay and the silence.

Take note, Bethesda, take note...

yeah i hope they say something soon, i love the game but fixing quest with Console Commmands bc i start it in a dif way or the item is bug is a paid, but what piss me more if the respaw dragon on word walls that dont give you soul make the game inmersion die since you dont absorve the souls

That can't be fun

I didn't understand a word of that sentence =)

Anyway, I've only encountered one bug so far, which was Erandur losing all the nice gear I had given him. Kind of annoying, but could happen to anyone I guess. I cut his wages for a few weeks, and didn't let him have any mead.

I'm so fine with them taking their time to fix what needs to be fixed. Everything is interconnected and when you touch one area, it affects another. The patch should fix things...not break more. Be patient and we'll have a better patch.

"I find myself getting jolly angry when I fail to absorb a soul upon successfully slaying a dragon and also when I experience game errors on quests".

Yet another pointless thread requesting unknowable information that will be locked.

You know what needs patched? All those rivers that are rebels and run south to north. Really immersion-breaking for me.

The weapon glitches continue to annoy me, and are easy fixes. Most glaring is skyforge daggers and their un-upgradability, and the broken top teir nightengale blade. I am sure there are many more.

I find that hard to believe considering the staggering amount of bugs involved with quests alone. If you've played Skyrim for a few hours you've encountered bugs whether you realized it or not.

Then there are the sad people who actually lie about encountering bugs because of being a really devoted fan.

touch wood i havent had any problems yet. BUT i feel for you guys that do suffer...
i just get nervous each time bethesda release a patch incase it creates new bugs

Yeah, the silence is a very bad sign ... no comments from Beth at all this year.

Panic ? Nothing constructive to say ? Do they know what they are doing/should be doing ?

PS. With all these bugs, the worst GOTY I have ever played ... makes the VGA awards a total joke.

There is little reason for that. Some people just get away bug free. I didn't really encounter any bugs until I got some mods just recently.






All year...? 12 days.

There are also those that thought to themselves "I can deal with the bugs, the alternative is not playing the game, if some would rather do that, they can be my guest"

However some bugs are annoying but in such a big game they are unavoidable... afterall a game is not seeking to become an image of perfection... but more a better avenue of making money and entertaining people than working in an office.

Yes they should or could be improved, but honestly? look at the REAL world... people shouldn't starve... pirates shouldn't kidnap people, and governments shouldn't impose.... but that's just a few real issues to focus one's criticism


EDIT:- Ash87's post above mine... is so true, pointing out that this year has been around for the grand total of 12 days... and considering the "WHAT WE ARE WORKING ON" thread was last updated on the 3rd of january!.... that's really not that long... people shouldn't get their virtual panties in a bunch

We are all playing the same game here.

Everybody has the same quests glitching out under certain circumstances.
Everybody has Conjuration summons failing with spell absorption.
Everybody has their Heavy Armor +Unarmed Damage perk broken.
Everybody has the dual wielding Werewolf bug.
Everybody has Dragon Priests locking up and doing nothing.
Everybody has dead Khajiits still moving their tails.

If you've played Skyrim and honestly claim to have not encountered any bugs they you are probably not even out of the tutorial area.

mrbigglesworth... has a self portrait that applies to his scrutiny.... brilliant

BUT sorry to dig buddy, really (seriously)

I just get irritated with the right or left wing response...

Read my previous post and chillax. or move on

You guys and your negativity (albeit truthful to an extent) focus on the bad rather than the good...

its still the first game where I have fought a cool looking dragon... and im sure it won't be the last... don't like it? play something else and let us enjoy the game
or at least offer CONSTRUCTIVE criticism

but yes there are bugs and radon isn't working... so screw it... turn a blind eye or ruin your own experience with your own scrutiny

(Those that get away bug free, are those that choose to accept & ignore them
just like the smarter than me folk choose not to argue in futility with folk like yours truly)

"The only fool greater than the fool who thinks they are right, is the one who argues with them" ah nuts... that's me then =/

No, they just won the Bethesda lottery... Bugs now being manifested in corrupted save-games, or observed in-game, now that they realize they are not actual features of the game.

To the poster above:
We don't focus on the bad, it is just more prevalent, and the whole reason we are here, looking for help... as opposed to not being here, not looking for help...

We wouldn't be here looking for help, if there was nothing wrong. Complain to the creators of the bugs, for ruining your forum experience. If they made it less buggy, there would be less of us here complaining. Don't shoot the messengers... Glad you haven't found any bugs, or you don't care about your bugs. So then why do you care about us, caring about our bugs so much? Perhaps if you spent more time playing, you would see our complaints less. (We didn't invite you here to read our posts. You did that of your own free will... Why do you like to torment yourself? Are you a masochist?)

greatly pleased that someone with some semblance of balanced argument decided to take notice of my post... thank you.. and I don't exactly know why I torment myself, perhaps I am a masochist. I simply feel compelled (if but a bit unbalanced to dig at negative commentators - which in a less tormented frame of mind I would simply view with an open-unaffected mind

I agree that the more i go on the forums, the less i enjoy the game... the more i play... the more i like the game.

Undoubtedly there are bugs that would benefit from a good fixing, and I run into them frequently and they are annoying and can be gamebreaking. But I found once I ignored them or was forced to play differently to avoid them ruining my immersion.. I found I got more enjoyment out of the game... I am simply offering that thought to others (while sometimes getting annoyed with blunt and stubborn comments that are devoid of any balanced reasoning.

But I hoped by posting that simply readers - non commenting viewers may have the same feeling about the game when they read stuff like this... My comments are to draw attention away from the bad parts... and focus on the good, or teaching those not set in mind. By no means do I intend to totally discredit the nay sayers, just to point out that folk need not be one or the other... but a balance of the two.

I offer a thought that you can look past faults by avoiding the common psychologically human thought process of what could be "better than" as opposed to "it is what it is - for now" although I would promote improvements and discussion/ suggestion of improvements in any form be it game or life, I demote the sole focus on the negative (which for me 1 of millions of unique skyrimmers, was subtly ruining my thoughts on the game and my faith in bethesda) why? because they are valid points, but can be avoided if you so choose

thank you for replying, and or reading this post JD_Mortal

EDIT:- looking past faults doesn't solve them, but it does allow you to still enjoy a great game when neither dev nor modder manages to fix them

Congratulations on giving yet another really devoted fan reponse to a thread giving negative feedback on Skyrim.

"DONT LIEK IT DONT PLAY IT LULZ", If your post is only going to amount to that at least only post that so people wont waste their time reading your garbage.

over 180 hours in and haven't had any issues that drove me crazy. No major bugs that I've noticed. Sorry but I just haven't seen it in my play through. Overall it's been very smooth. I've gotten stuck in terrain a couple of times and seen a few graphical glitches and occasionally an NPC will do something weird after dying but that stuff is typical of Bethesda's games and certainly doesn't have an impact on my overall experience. These games are so huge I never expect them to be perfect anyway.

Must not know about geography IRL then. The Mississippi runs North to South, But yes it is strange, The Colorado River runs South to North...lol

Not a devoted fan,
the game has gamebreaking/ immersion breaking/ rpg style ignoring features

I am just pointing out you need not be so bias and accept that your 100+ hours of gameplay was spent on more than just realising the game is not to your taste

my high hopes have not been met, though despite that fact, (under a different title) it would be an acceptable game that has some elements of fun.?

I just dislike the bias comments... and from time to time I must speak in deaf ears to make myself feel better =D just like I eat when i'm hungry or laugh when I find something funny

The Nile River begs to differ with you. It breaks the immersion of Egypt.

In a world with dragons, and magic, why not rivers that run south to north?
