Here's an idea:

We all go on Twitter and keep asking about it at least once a day until they finally say SOMETHING.

Let's do it.

I'm upset by the fact they aren't giving any communication what-so-ever, even though the limit is over and they have no reason to delay for the pc/ps3 after patch 1.7 comes out.

You're saying that developers finish the DLC and then the marketing department decides to just sit on it? I really don't think so. It doesn't make any business sense to put off making money. And how could the 1.6 patch be a problem but the 1.7 patch not be?

It wasn't just the PS3 that was buggy, my Xbox version started off fine then went to hell in a hand basket after consecutive updates, so much so that I gave up playing after 1.3 I think, I decided to try playing again when 1.5 came out and it worked pretty well 'till 1.6 which turned it into a crashing, freezing nightmare! So much so I bought it on PC where I finally got to see the great game it is, and should be on all platforms. All I can say is I'm glad I didn't buy it on PS3 as you guys got hit the hardest all round.

Bethesda make some really great games, no other developers come close to them in what they try to achieve, lately though they are making really bad decisions regarding the state of games they're releasing and the way in which they're treating their fan base. I'll certainly not be pre-ordering the next game they release, I'll be sifting through their forums for problems before making a decision.

Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying. Dawnguard's been done for a long time now. Hell, the only reason people haven't used the xbox version on the PC is because converting the ddx files to dds would take ages. They've been sitting on it due to the timed exclusivity deal.

Yeah, a kickstarter project with the core Beth devs would be an awesome thing indeed. Imagine if all they had to do was just make the game, without impediment from all the corporate garbage, and they could feed it directly to the fans who love them so much. Imagine if they could return to the ethic that was responsible for Daggerfall and Morrowind, where the focus was on outlandish adventures, deep character development and world interaction...And not on marginalizing capital, keeping investors in power, and streamlining everything for the market.

Oh well. While we're on topic though, have you guys seen the new Wasteland 2 screens?

I can't [censored] wait.

Off to Twitter, fellow keyboard warriors!

I agree, also we spam their facebook wall.

Right so now we're NOT getting Dawnguard!!! WTF is this sh*t for real?!?!

I would throw money at that like there was no tomorrow.

I know. Can't wait.

You really think Beth would do this an alienate the PS3/PC players, thus losing money?

Not a chance. You guys will get it eventually

What is that? RTS?

I meant the kickstarter idea.

They don't have any reason to delay it now except for patch 1.7, which if they got their stuff together they would have had it out today.

It's the getting it "eventually" part after waiting 30 days already that's the problem.

It's like the first couple Fallout games. I know there was a Wasteland 1, but this looks more like them.

It's fully possible that the 30 day exclusivity deal includes the 30th day, in which case we might get news tomorrow. However if that's not the case, I'd chalk it up to marketers overthinking things and being idiots as usual.

I get that, but the guy seemed to be fearing never getting it.

Oh I wasn't trying to imply that there were no bugs on the other versions, just stating the well known fact that the PS3 version is the absolute worst.


The Dawnguard DLC has been done for the 360 for a long time now, yes. But it still doesn't make sense to sit on DLC that can make you money and the exclusivity deal is up today. At least today an announcement about it should have been made. Instead we were essentially told it's not coming to other platforms even if they didn't directly say that. But then why state there is a 30 exclusivity deal if it's not coming to other platforms, and why then delay the release with not even so much as a hint about a release?

Well this tweet makes it sound a lot like we won't! https://twitter.com/DCDeacon/status/228527108681502720

Just keep tweeting on Pete Hines' wall. He'll cave eventually.

A new cRPG powered by some of the minds who basically started it all.

Check it out, read up on it a little. This is basically what Fallout was supposed to be, but never was because the publishers didn't want to green light it. Through kickstarter they've been able to get the project going though, over a decade after everyone thought it was a dead franchise.

Basically, they're my heroes.

The way bethesda develops their DLC, the 360 and PC versions are pretty much identical with the exception of the ddx/s files and the .nifs being slightly different. Bethesda obviously has the tools for converting these that the public doesn't. The PC version was pretty much done at the same time as the 360 version. I know little about the PS3 version though.
