Well as soon as I loaded up my save I was in a bookshelf inventory screen for some reason. It was the bugged bookshelf in my house in Whiterun that "ate" some of my books. And so I was finally able to recover those books from my bookshelf. (Even though I was nowhere near my house.)

I just received update 1.6 on my 360. Its going to take a bit of getting used to but it does make me want to do less fast traveling and more horseback across the map. Thanks again Bethesda for another nice addition to gameplay keep it comeing please! Still a little bummed to hear that other 360 players have received beta codes and I've not. Cant wait to see what Dawnguard brings to the table. STOKED!!!! BTW had a little lag when sprinting on foot i had this problem once befor and had to delete the corrupted file and start over after the 1.4 patch released. I guess i will have to do it again.

The respawn bug people how is it do enemies seem to respawn?

How about the plants for me they have not respawned either. I am hoping 1.6 addresses this as well, as it might be the respawn timer might be glitched.

This update would have been perfect if there was mounted magic combat. Magic is easier than archery, so that can't be the issue.

I know I was watching my friend just riding around shooting things, while I am still on foot :mad:

Where did you hear that? I'm 99.9% sure that is false.

I'm actually surprised how good mounted combat is i though it would be clunky, it's actually very fluid, Oh does anyone else notice the game looks graphically better on xbox now, or is it just me?

I've noticed a lot more Dragons after 1.6.. had 4 encounters in less than 30mins yesterday afternoon and 3 more when I played last night. Wouldn't be so bad, but I'm walking everywhere.. and the 1 really noticeable thing after 1.6 is that for about 10mins after loading a save game is that game crawls, stutters and the textures don't load.. lots of greyish blobs around towns and such.. eventually it seems to correct itself but still annoying. Oh and I always clear my cache before playing Skyrim.

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.

He answered that question for you three times. You are just not getting it.

Mounted combat is really fun with Shadowmere, and a bow. Go to a little outpost of bandits, they shoot the horse mostly, allows for easy archery training.

It might be my imagination, but I think they nerfed dragons. I had 2 regular green dragons attack me @ Western watchtower just outside of Whiterun. Usually, at my current level 57, it takes atleast 3-5 hits with my current sword. This time around I one hit both of them. Sword dmg is the same. Not sure could be all in my head.

I SAW BATS. Coming out of some cave, as soon as the loading screen finished and I saw the outside world, a flurry of bats flew past me! I ended up loading that twice and it happened both times!

I've also noticed that the map close-ups are a lot more close-up. And it seems that the perspecitve of the topography has improved. I saw High Hrothgar the Throat of the World and thought for the first time, "Whoa! Look at the size of that thing!" I had never noticed it really at all while looking at the map before.

The game definitely runs much smoother. I just wish i wasn't in the middle of the Thieves Guild quest line because it jacked some stuff up. The only thing i really dislike is in the mounted combat if I use a bow the arrow hits at least a foot past my cursor.

Nope.. I'm fine. You know, if Bethesda would like literally release the beta codes at like 12:01 AM that'd be nice..

So I take it that "nerf" means make the dragons weaker? I had the opposite impression yesterday while playing the first dragon we have to kill. This one killed five guards during the combat!!! It generally kills one, sometimes none, appart from the two burnt bodies that are already on the field... Oh that makes me remember: there was only one burnt body near the tower.

My character wasn't different of the others I played that dragon with before: same level (1) same weapons (ordinary, not improved bow), the guards had the same equipment than before and Irileth used a bit more her magic (shock spell). I liked it very much; it looked, and still looks, a lot more realistic.

I'm not using any fantasy mods adding this or that to dragons or to gameplay.

I fought 2 Ancient Dragons from the back of my horse and beat them easily enough, I also feel like Dragons are a bit weaker to be honest.
