I'm reading at EuroGamer and I see this ?http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-06-08-skyrim-1-6-update-goes-live-on-xbox-360?
But not for PC? Have we not been beta testing this for a while now?

Perhaps I missed out on the announcement that all Skyrim patches will come out on Xbox 360 1 month before PC and PS3.
It's scary that this would not surprise me, "he he".

Now some people have said to me that those very few selected people playing on Xbox 360 needed this patch in order to beta test Dawnguard, but how would that make sense for the rest of the players on Xbox 360 that isn't beta testing Dawnguard, to recieve a patch that isn't complete, that could cause broken saves?! I don't think so! This patch has to be complete.

So I have no idea why this patch didn't get released for PC that have the most beta testers of them all, is just [censored] up.

Pc players get the exact same thing except for one bug fix tha has to do with the right bumper. It is not like the xbox players are gettin something better than the PC players (in regards to this specific update)

The only difference is one has the word beta on it : /

In fact PC players got it much earlier than xbox players... So what is the problem?

You lost me. PC players has not gotten the patch yet, it's still in beta and you should know there is risks by playing a beta patch.
So if we get back on track, this is about a finished patch for Xbox 360 that isn't out on PC yet, why is it not out on PC yet when the fixes is the same?

It is just as finished on PC as on 360. If you are worried about risks... Then back up your saves before you get it.

It's not finished on PC when I have to sign up for beta on PC to recieve the patch.

"signing up" involves toggling a little switch in steam.

One that you can toggle back off if you end up not liking it :/

I'm just here to confirm dramatic performance loss again. I've reverted to 1.5.26, played for an hour or so, and the game performs perfectly. Things I've noticed with 1.6.87/1.6.89 performance wise:

- Got a huge negative impact on FPS in the starter dungeon. Lost measurable 12-15 FPS and sometimes up to 30 FPS, when looking into direction of the mama bear, I recal having similar issues in Oblivion, getting FPS drops when looking in certain directions.
- Massive delay in scripts, up to a point were scripts weren't performing anylonger. Script based follower hotkeys in my mod weren't responding. Follower commands weren't responding. Bandits in the wilds just standing around doing nothing. Conversations and scenes got delayed in some cases around Riverwood.
- Animations were laggy to a point were actors, when not having them in my eyesight, just interrupted their animation and once I turned to them, they just stood there doing nothing.
- Lots of glitches related to actors stuck inside certain furnitures.
- Game was often going into slow motion, just to go back to normal speed and then slow motion again. Felt totally unnatural and almost like the game was crashing every moment. Which fortunately it never did.

If this is going to stay like that for the next update, I'm in big trouble. Game felt horrible with that BETA patch.

Now some people have said to me that those very few selected people playing on Xbox 360 needed this patch in order to beta test Dawnguard, but how would that make sense for the rest of the players on Xbox 360 that isn't beta testing Dawnguard, to recieve a patch that isn't complete, that could cause broken saves?!

Read above! And as I said, it's still in beta so PC has not yet recieved a complete patch that is finished.

Thus the point about making backups and turning off the beta if it ends up not working.

Plus, the example you provided me is someone using mods... Which commonly do not work well with updates.

But whatever, if the thought of copying a save into a different folder for five minutes horrifies you, I am not forcing you to do it.

The fact still remains that PC players have had access to horse combat for longer than Xbox players.

I don't care about horse combat. I just asked why Bethesda release a finished patch for Xbox 360 while the same patch for PC isn't finished.
You can't answer this, I get that. But stop messing around with anything you can think of that has nothing to do with my question in the first place.

: / I didn't realise one word was reason to get into such a fuss...

I think i will just let this thread cool off...

The most annoying thing about this update is the fix for the "burnt" vampire face doesn't work anymore, so my character is stuck with what looks like a bunch of dirt on her face till further notice.

Found a small glitch. Unlocking a Falmer chest unlocks it fine, but then boots you out of the chest once it's unlocked, so you have to activate it again to go back into it to grab whatever items are inside.

That's nothing new.
