the only bug that i have had (other than my dog randomly hovering every now and again) is one which randomly gave me unlimited magic. it would be awesome except im roleplaying a nord nomad barbarian and magic doesnt really fit into it.
Skyrim Patch Makes Dragons Fly Backwards

Well, I'd say it's a GoTY because people really, really enjoy it. I mean, look at how many people have mentioned bugs, glitches, issues and then just kept playing anyway because they're having so much fun.blizzaradragon said:
Me, I've had a couple of freezes, and that's been about it. That said, it's only been about 80 hours, so I'm not sure you'd count that as an "extended period of time" considering how much longer others have played for. Longest I've done in one stretch would be about 12 hours, no issues.
The short version is that the game is so damn good that problems are, for the majority of people, forgivable.
How is a mythical creature with so much skill that it can fly backwards a bug? The only thing that would make it better is if the dragon could deliver all the best lines by Liam Neeson in Taken.
I love how Bethesda continously get away with releasing such broken games. How on earth are you supposed to be immersed in this fantasy world if every 5 seconds a mammoth falls out of the sky or a dragon starts doing the funky chicken?

All jokes aside though, I really do feel bad for laughing at Bethesda whenever they try to patch a game. Especially as I know how hard it is to code even tiny little programs.
Oh good sir, you have made me laugh today, I congratulate you.
Yeah i'm still getting the lag problem, it's fucking annoying.
Dragons are too weak IMO. I've seen one get distracted and try desperately to kill a frost troll. They need a physical attack that doesn't require them to land. The breath and jaw snapping needs a major strength boost. I only play on Very Hard (Master) as the game was meant to be played.
Either Im the luckiest sonofabitch or I just dont notice these bugs or hell any bugs in Bethesda games...
I am playing 360 tho so(?).... About the most the new patch did was break my bookshelves...Oh and the whole woodcutters hands becoming logs or having firewood stuck to them..but thats always around.

Okay, I got everything else done and I'll call mother in a hour or so. But first what do I sacrifice to Loki?GonzoGamer said:

You really shouldn't skimp on important details.
OT: So no one is going to bring up that the dragons breathe fire out their asses when they fly backwards? PS3 it only does fire shitting dragons.
Nobody really seems surprised. It's Bethesda, guys. I think the reason nobody calls them out on their buggy mess everytime is because we've started to expect this sort of crap from them and for some reason people are ok with it.
Personally i haven't bought the game due to my massive back log of games and finals coming up, but i doubt i'd have bought it on release date anyways for this exact reason. I mean, i wasn't expecting them to make matters worse, but i was expecting quite the stew of bugs and glitches.
All i really wanna say to those who thought otherwise is:

Bethesda: Quality...Assurance?
Yeah and you know those texture problems the Xbox 360 was having? Well I didn't actually have those until after the patch.
As cool as the dragons flying is I think I know who caused this, It might be Bethesda's new intern Glitch Gremlin (i would put a scrambled version of the name that is also ironic but i am not that creative.) You have to remember when Bethesda fights the war on glitches they fight a hydra so when they stop one glitch 2 new ones replace it.
(Xbox) I have a recurring issue where, when I go to use a dragon shout, it doesn't do anything. I'll mash the button and everything, and I'll even check to make sure I have one equipped. I do. Strangely, the options in the shout menu are all greyed out. I go to select a different one, to see what's wrong, where it tells me that I "can't change shouts when one is being used". Yeah, it gets annoying when I really need to use one of the shouts.
Arg been playing offline for weeks got home last nite started in offline mode I thought somehow I now have broken game and new patch character dead on ground wont move even if I reload to before he died buttons not working moused screwed up fast travel not working cant buy seller or kill anything am o do something at work today damn auto freeking downloads looks like will have to get a mode to fix things but not a mode person try to keep things as they were meant to be not a forums person but in one patch they have ruined it and looks like evetyone else too port work bethesda
Sorry about that.Al-Bundy-da-G said:
It depends on the platform but yes a 360 player can offer up the soul of a PC gamer and a PC gamer can offer up the soul of a 360 gamer.
The PS3 sacrifice isn't quite so easy; it has to be a virgin rabbit born in a month with an "R" in it and it has to be bled on an altar made out of a ps3 running Linux. Anoint the game disc with the blood of the rabbit (banishing pentagram) and you should be good to go.
Sure it's a bit more complicated but we are talking about a Bethesda game on the PS3...needs a little extra help.
It's why I don't have Skyrim: I'm a ps3 owner.
I don't actually. Although I did buy it eventually, I did so perhaps 12-18 months after it was released. How bad was it?doggie015 said:
