Poll: ok lets put a number to this....

[ecoho]

i want to see how many PS3 players have actually had problems with skyrim(ie lag so bad you cant play and game breaking glitches) because i havent had any problems with it(40+hours in and neither have any of my friends.

 

[Pearwood]

I have but only since the last patch. And I don't get affected by the slowdown after playing for a long time, might be cause I tend to play for an hour or two at a time though. It's the autosave bug I've started getting.

 

[RedEyesBlackGamer]

IGN already did this. Thousands of people voted, it came out to 36% had severe lag.

I have recently crested 100 hours. No. It seriously irritates me bookshelves are bugged and my game has froze 2-3 times and yesterday, I saw a horse frozen in mid air in running position beside the road and my cursor didn't acknowledge his existence. However, before patch 1.1 and 1.2, I only had the game freeze on me once and noticed nothing else.

Out of curiosity I tried to use a carriage last night when I was overburdened and it wouldn't let me. I told the driver where I wanted to go, sat in the back and nothing happened. When I pushed X again my guy got off the back. Is that a bug or intentional? I know you can't fast travel while overburdened (I don't use fast travel anyways) but a carriage?

Yeah, I tried. Reloaded saves and such. I ended up just buying a horse instead. Wasn't sure if it was a bug or intended because of it.

Can we actually talk about the game instead of this crap.

I play skyrim on the PS3, I ran into the lag issue, deleted my game data, reinstalled it, and it works fine, and it will continue to be until it happens again, and then I'll do the same thing until I've finished this awesome game.

End of story, case close, im off to PLAY Skyrim instead of bitching about it, because these things happen. PS3's memory is shit, Bethesda's not to blame, not a lot anyone can do about it.

Being forced to constantly delete your character isn't a big deal? And this is squarely on Bethesda.

Nope, I still have my save data from the lag issue, and I'm still playing it.

You don't have to start all over again, all you need to do is go to you're game data, and delete, and reinstall the game again. This clears the cache (of world data such as object placement, dead bodies ect), that free's the memory, that stops it from affecting the framerate. All of this, and you're precious saves are still intact, ready to be played once you've reinstalled it.


It's not entirely Bethesda's fault, how can you create a seamless dynamic world on a console with such a low amount of RAM.

It can't be fixed, only optimised better, which Bethesda are working on in the patches.

 

[Whateveralot]

No and I have it on PC.

I have encountered 0 bugs so far (or things I experienced as bugs). Just some glitching physical objects, sometimes. And strange dragon flightpaths (they get hooked behind rocks and trees sometimes when they want to dive down). But that's all.

hey your more then welcome to talk about the game im just tired of hearing about a problem that effect the minority every single time i talk about the game.

 

[Moonlight Butterfly]

I'm 230 hours in on PC and I have had no big problems. I had one where a quest item stayed in my inventory but that's hardly earth shattering.

 

[kyogen]

I've run into bugs on my PS3 version, but they're not game-breaking. Mostly, they are minor annoyances or even worthy of a good chuckle.

Resetting the world didn't work for me. And sorry that I misunderstood you. I still fully blame Bethesda. They have known about this problem for 5 years.
