Good to known. Now we just confirmation of a pc patch. Loving Skyrim but broken quest, unremovable quest items and the game randomly closing itself does take the shine off slightly.
New Skyrim Patch Will Fix "Long-Term Play" Problems
- Thread starter Mike Kayatta
- Start date
Been playing around 89 hours and I still haven't had any messed up textures after installing it to my harddrive or experienced any kind of lag on the 360. Found a bugged side-quest and a bugged miscellaneous objective and that's about it.
Same here. I don't understand how the problem is not consistent. At one time the frame rate dropped but I still believe it was due to too many hours played and poor ventilation. As soon as I placed my PS3 on the table where it can breathe, the game went back to normal.amaranth_dru said:
It is a shame if other people are having major problems and can't play though.
No, it's not. Nothing is overheating. My computer only crashes when playing Skyrim.The Lugz said:
You know the following two things:Satsuki666 said:
1. Skyrim is on a different engine than Fallout 3.
and
2. New Vegas was made by Obsidian, not Bethesda.
Right?
The issue may have existed on both engines, but that doesn't mean it's caused by the same thing and can be fixed the same way.
That's odd, my entire family installed Skyrim to their xbox 360 hard drive, and I don't think any of us have had any scaling issues. It's good to hear that this patch will be out soon though ( now I'm worried this will happen to me 
)
OT: I'm not sure if the giant blasting you to the moon is a glitch, but I hope they never change that. Seriously, its just hilarious!

Actually...shrekfan246 said:
1.No, it's not. It's still Gamebryo. Whatever you want to call it, it's the same damn engine, with slight updates.
2.The engine was still the same.
Yes...it could be fixed the same way. MAKE A NEW FUCKING ENGINE. GAMEBRYO IS A PIECE OF SHIT.
ehm...
That is all.
I've been playing mucho hours on the 360 and haven't had any real major issues, particularly of a technical nature. There's been the odd corpse freak out or extended bullettime when doing a special melee finisher, but nothing that's really been major at all.
The biggest and most damaging glitch I have personally come across is that my status with Markarth seems to be bugged and I can't apply to be a Thane after being offered once and saying I'd come back later to accept the title (the Jarl said I needed to buy a house first and I hadn't even checked what the price of one there was before he made the offer).
Not saying that the problems noted in the news story don't exist, but I just wanted to throw my own personal experiewnce out there as a counterpoint. Clearly some people are having some rather major issues, but not everyone is experiencing anything game breaking at all. If you're on the fence as fas as getting the game for fear of mass glitches and bugs ruining the experience, don't be.

I'm not going to dignify you with a proper response because, based on your other posts in this thread, nothing will make you believe Skyrim doesn't run on the Gamebryo engine. So all I'll say is that if it is the "same damn engine", it's had a lot more than "slight updates" because it's vastly superior to Morrowind/Oblivion/Fallout 3/Fallout New Vegas, no matter what common bugs the games might share.erztez said:
And fair enough, I didn't know Bethesda did the bug testing for it.Irridium said:
My friend who plays on the PS3 got hit with that whole lag problem when he was playing, which was a real bummer. Strangely though, he's reported that once he got past about 11 MB for a saved game, the lag practically disappeared. It's so odd that it might just be some rare exception of him having good luck, but I figured I might as well give those poor souls who are affected by the PS3 a possible solution.
Thankfully, I didn't instal Skyrim to my 360, so I don't have to worry about the texture scaling issues.

Skyrim runs on a slightly updated gamebryo engine they called the creation engine.shrekfan246 said:
It's still the same engine, hence why we still see the same bugs that we saw in the other games.
Though the updated version is vastly superior to the normal gamebryo.
