The title says it all folks,

First, When is the next patch coming out?

Last, What is the aim of these patches?

It might seem obvious however I'd like to hear a Bethesda rep post about the companion system (mindless auto-attack), bugs/bugs/broken quests,
and other slew of major complaints on this board.

Thanks
