Patch 1.6 on Xbox 360... : V - Skyrim

» Fri Jun 08, 2012 4:25 pm

Just loaded my game for the first time after updating and it seems like it is giving me all the hints and tutorial messages all over again. Kind of interesting.

Wait what? The patch is only for the 360?.. Um why is that?

It costs four hundred thousand dollars to release an update for twelve seconds. My guess is the PS3 will follow soon, it's just a bit of a hassle pushing out a patch for consoles.

Eh... do I want that? I'm getting confused now. I have a 34mb download that I've been skipping.... I don't really care about mounted combat.... are there quest fixes there that I need? I've been reading too much and now I don't know what I want/need...

I assume you wont want the dawnguard DLC cos you will need the update for it.

This finally gives me a certified reason to keep my horse instead of killing him

Does anyone have an issue of Crashing on the Xbox 360 with the 1.6 update?

I downloaded this today and loaded my last save (sat on shadowmere) an after 2 mins after killing one person via mounted combat the game crashed the xbox out. I've tried this twice & the same thing happened.

Note: Other xbox games play fine

Atomic nirnroots??? What atomic nirnroots?

These are the plants, after harvesting, which still give off their glow (a glitch fixed with 1.6).

Anybody got a changelog?

Also, my companions questline was already broke from 1.5, they wouldnt ever give me the cure quest. But I do not mind since I am roleplaying a werewolf.

Could someone describe the glitch so that I can avoid activatin it on future playthroughs?

Thanks for the link. Definitely won't be updating.
Darn, I was really looking forward to mounted combat!

Ok and thank you thingy_person for the quick answer

I'm 99% sure this is legit...

Judging from what Arthmoor says, the script fires at the beginning of the game, so there is no escape. As of yet, we don't know what it mucks up exactly aside from taking of loads of script processing time, but it can't do the companions any good.

guess they are getting ready for dawnguard. In quest stats they already have Dawnguard Quests Completed added.

Oh, I don't know where any of those are. I don't usually bother picking up nirnroots, because I have to dismount. Unless it's one of those annoying ones like in Morthal by the Jarl's place. The ringing gives me a headache.

To prepare for the Dawnguard beta.

It has been on the PC for quite a while now, if I'm not mistaken.

I understood thingy's reasoning better. Patches IMHO should always be released at same time. Microsoft paid for timed dlc exclusivity so that's appropriate. Not patches tho beta or not.

» Fri Jun 08, 2012 10:43 pm

Beta

Ahhh. Okay.

» Sat Jun 09, 2012 4:46 am

I'm playing a pure mage so it's a bit of a miss for me. I wish I could at least reactivate my Vampire's Sight without dismounting.

» Sat Jun 09, 2012 1:07 am

microsoft has got exclusive rights to the game so it is being released on 360 1 month before the other platforms.

New question:

I'm signed on to Live but my husband isn't. Is he getting the benefits of the patches I download to the game...? I'm pretty sure the answer is no but I just wanted to check.

» Fri Jun 08, 2012 6:13 pm

Is it out on Ps3?

» Sat Jun 09, 2012 1:44 am

I have been experiancing the same problem as "Eufion". Every time i play i get about 3 minutes playtime and then it crashes the xbox. By crashing im saying that it freezes the entire xbox instantly!

Anyone know how to avoid this? Wil they patch this soon?
