Fixed issue with placing books on bookshelves inside player purchased homes.Fixed magic resistances not calculating properly.Fixed Radiant Story incorrectly filling certain roles.Optimize performance for Core 2 Duo CPUs (PC).

Here is the list of what fixes are included, and unless specified, the fix covers the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 version: Where does that leave players now? The Skyrim 1.3 update has been released by Bethesda and is currently up on Steam and Xbox Live, and as of this writing, is "in the hands of Sony" for the PS3 version. Bethesda Vice President of PR and Marketing Pete Hines emphatically denied the claim by Sawyer, and instead offered players "workarounds" for the issue at hand. Joshua Sawyer, Project Director on Fallout: New Vegas, spoke out and said that Bethesda should have been aware of the issue on the PS3 version because it has been present for awhile, and was definitely an issue on Fallout: New Vegas. Gamers playing as Bretons suddenly found themselves with all the negative aspects of a High Elf, but without the extra magic to offset it. Unfortunately, the 1.2 patch brought more problems than fixes, especially for the PS3, where players noticed that while the patch did alleviate some of the problems surrounding the saved files, the problem still existed, resulting in game freezes and crashes.Īmong other issues with 1.2, the "addition" of backward flying dragons and the complete removal of magical resistances stand out. For Xbox players, the graphical troubles have seemed to subside for the most part. The 1.2 patch was supposed to bring more stability to the long-term prospects of playing Skyrim on the PS3, as well as correcting a host of graphical glitches (among other issues) in all versions of the game. Then again, things didn't turn out so well the last time Skyrim got updated.

A new patch released today promises to address many of the game's issues. It is quite simply a fantastic game, garnering public praise and great reviews and even a Game of the Year honor at the 2011 Spike Video Game Awards.Īt the same time, Skyrim is being drug through the mud due to technical problems with the retail release and subsequently patched versions of the game, mainly dealing with texture issues in the Xbox 360 version and large saved game files on the PlayStation 3. There is not much left to say about The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim that has not already been said.
