Skyrim Patch Notes Released

> Fixed rare issue where dragons would not attack

"Rare" issue, really? Not "every second dragon"?

Also, I don't see anything in there about the horribly buggy menus in the PC version. Can we please have a fix for the menus? I mean, I love the game and I'm really enjoying it, but the general interface has serious issues.

Well that's good that corpses are going to be cleaned up properly. There's a dragon corpse that's glitching all over the place at the College. And at the same place, Erandur's body is still where the Eye of Magnus was and no one has even bothered to clean him up.

There is this one quest related glitch that's bugging me too. It's that one small quest with Breylna Maryon of the College of Winterhold where she tests her spells on you. Ever since she cast the first one, the quest never updated on the spell wearing off. I'd like to complete the quest and marry her, but the game won't let me. Can that be fixed? Or would I have to start a new game or load a much older file?

WHAT ABOUT MY WIFE????

I got married told her I wanted her to live at my place in whiterun and then fast travel to my home, poof no wife, go to her "original home" no wife, I got married, we were suposed to be together forever, thats what the dude in orange said....

FIX THAT BUG

early ps3 patch feedback is showing something awry with elemental resistances.

They appear to either no longer function or in some cases actually functioning in reverse (ie: a 40% fire resist will see you TAKE +40 fire damage).

Source is the Bethsoft forums.

Sounds pretty bad... :/

Personally I find it a pity that the dragons not attacking was a bug. It was kind of cool to see one flying around and attacking something else instead of me.....

Ok ok, i was being lazy and was hoping that something else would smack the dragon for me. But I seriously thought that it was the result of the dragon A.I chosing the next victim other than the player

How about the part where it won't let me buy the house in windhelm? That's a bit of a problem.

I want that house so badly.
Also the glitch where weapon racks don't work, pisses me off big time.
Best part about TES games, house decoration!

Was hoping for the 3rd person view fix.
Ever since becoming a werewolf, whenever I'm playing in 3rd person without a weapon equipped the camera's incredibly zoomed in and my Khajit takes up over half of the screen :s
(PS3 btw)

As for bugs, I was ranging this mammoth once from a rocky hillside.
It walked around the hill to find a way to get to me and well... It somehow found a manageable slope, walked up, then started floating away into the sky following the angle of the slope.
After a couple yards the anti-gravity stopped and it fell to its death XD

But yeah, would love to see the lag fixed as well.

So apparently, according the the Bethesda forums, the new patch breaks elemental resistances. At least for the PS3 and 360 version.

Not really sure how you'd mess up something like this, but I'm probably going to avoid this patch for now just in case.

Hidden text in patch notes-

- Broke resistances so they no longer work.
- Increased frequency of glitch where weapon racks and bookshelves don't work.
- Added backwards flight for dragons.
- Increased incidence of texture bug on Xbox 360.

Honestly Bethesda, how could you not know that the patch was this buggy? Please tell me your not this unprofessional and sloppy.

And, on the 360, creates hideous z-fighting with water and terrain that wasn't there before.

"Rare" glitch with the dragon souls? "Rare"? It's happened to me 3 times in 20 hours!

 

[MarsProbe]

Does it fix the bug where after you complete the Markarth conspiracy quest it's impossible to lose your bounty?
I can't go to jail to repay my debt to society, I can't pay the fine, I'm a criminal for life!

I don't know if this is the same situation, but after completing the jail escape, although I was able to walk around the city, if I headed into Understone Keep I would get as far as the bottom of the steps leading up to the Jarl and the whole keep would turn on me.

However, after I kept away from the city for a while, I re-entered the keep and was able to to talk to the Jarl again.

What a forgiving bunch. Considering I'd killed countless guards, including those in Cidhna Mine and similarly cleared out that Temple of Dibella, they were surprisingly lenient.

Ok... so they fixed the rare issues, what about the not-so-rare issues that the other 99% of us seem to be having?
