"dear" bethesda" i am very annoyed !!!!

Skyrim is an amazing game, i played it 100 of hours but now i lose the fun completly

after update 1.9 the game freeze and freeze and freeze again and again and again.

i NEVER have problems with freezing before 1.9 - ok maybe 3-4 times, not more.

some days i have 10 freeze in one hour

i read all tipps and tricks how to handle the problem. than, two weeks ago i deinstall

the game and all updates and add ons. reinstall all.. works, no freeze. Fine i can play.

since 2-3 days the freezing problem starts again

example from today:

30 minutes ago i load my save. beeing in falkreach. 2 minutes later a dragon will arrive.

i kill him. i travel to whiterun - dragon attack, so i have to kill again...

than i travel to dawnstar - oh look an beautifull dragon... i′am pissed off...so i reload my save

so start agin at falkreach.. sure with dragon - kill

i travel to whiterun - yes, dragon.. i kill again..

travel to dawnstar, again dragon.. ok i kill him also.. 1 minute later in dawnstar the next

dragon will arrived okay i will kill him too...........

and then ????? hmmmmm ??? yes DEAR Bethesda FREEZE !!!

an now ?? reload again.. and then again dragon dragon dragon dragon and freeze ??

and reload and reload save again again again ?? setup autosave at all possible position ??

disregarding from to much dragon again and again its not longer funny playing

AH !! ok i can deinstall again.. yes sure.. BUT on PS3 i can only download an bought content

2 or 3 times (not sure) - after this i have to pay for it AGAIN ?

So Betheda tell me what can i do ??? you like to transfer me money on my bank account

so i can buy the 3 addons again, maybe over again, for next 3 or 10 times de-/install ??? hmmm ??

or is it possible, that you support again for an correct working and PAID game by your customer

after stop working on Skyrim ???

Maybe for someone it sounds funny and little extrem to hear my complaint, but for me

its an shame to give out an content with so extrem bugs and say "Even though we’re moving on..."

Now i am nosy for an answer by admin of bethesda

Skyrim is at this time unplayable

"Thanks" Sixxx

* hope you understand my problems and my english words

you realize the more you fast travel, the more likely you get Dragon Attacks...? just saying...

anyways...

have you tried starting a new character? It sounds like the issue may be save game bloating....

thanks bunny for answering

aaah okay so i have to run over map if i dont want to have dragon again and again ?

is this an bug or intendet

no dont try an new character at this time. and if the save game is corrupt, i dont think i

start again - i am not the type of player who start playing with new character. if i play,

i play only one char - i dont like to start again by zero

ok. if the save i corrupt - why works it after reinstall the game and addons ? must

the problems start directly again after using my save and not weeks later ?!

hmm i have some old save on the PS3plus space - maybe i can test with it an have

an look what happend

> setup autosave at all possible position ?? <

You have always all autosaves on ????

btw as i can see you have problem with this particular dragon chasing, but you have played for about 100 hours.

I mean how many times have you reinstalled the game after this particularly dragon problem ????

And yes it can be sometimes that the install files on your disk, or even the DLC's get corrupt.

It happens to us too at least once if more, you know.

But again, i must know some more info's about your problem.

How much space have you left on your HDD ???

How you did the installation procedure ???

Have you all the time the autosaves on ???

Do you play connected to the net, or maybe downloading at the same time ???

How many hours do you play straight ???

Do you make new save slots or overriding the old ones ???

How many saves have you in your inventory ???

What's about the lag ???

And last but not least, you see you have problems especially at Falkreath.

Why you don't do another quest or travel in some different place, so only for change too see what happens ????

Why you do the same think with the dragons again and again...

Are you not curious, to see if your game freezes in a different place ???

You should experiment a little more you know my friend !!!!

GOOD LUCK ANYWAY...

not Corrupt, "Save Game Bloating" is caused when you have played a single character for a long time. with every save the save file gets larger, and after it reaches a certain size it gets weird glitches and freezees/crashes alot.

and I think the "higher chance of Dragons on fast travel" was intended during development

Hey Mark

uuuh lot of Question, lot of Answers

Yes and no ! i use all autosave at the time i have the freezemarathon, cause i dont want to lose to much

play time. means i dont want to lose 1 hour playing after last save. after new setup Skyrim i only use autosave by sleeping

now with freezing i also use autosave by traveling.

i reinstall Skyrim only one time - after update 1.9 and starting freezing.

courious: after update 1.9 i dont have so much dragon fights. for me it looks like the 1.9 change this.

ok, the massive dragon presence today (4 Dragons at 5 minutes) maybe is an exclusion by travelling

the same places again.

before update 1.9 the dragons appears extrem often

So: i only reinstall the Game and addons one time.

problem on PS3 is that i can not download content endless. so i have to use is spare or i have to pay

for it again

Hm, think the Disc is form first release in Germany - October 2011

Maybe its time for the Legendary Version with all Addons - endless using

1 left ps3 disc space is 18GB (disc with 150GB)

2 hope i understand. insert disc and the installation begin automatically (after reinstall, then i download Addons again and install them by click and say "install")

- then games starts and download and install the update.

3 no autosave is not on all the time (look answer above)

4 PS3 is allways "online" by Wlan. Sometimes i play connectet to the PS3 network, sometimes it is not connectet.

- yes, sometime i will download (but on desktop computer) but today with freeze i am connected to PS3 Network but no downloading

5 today only 10 minutes - after this i lost my happiness and write to this board

- some days i play 3-4 or 5 hours without any problems or only one freeze

6 this is different. bevor reinstall i have some old saves and some fresh saves. normaly i overwrite the last one or two saves

- i also have create some new saves and delete the old once

7 at this time, after reinstall i only have 2 normal saves (unfortunately both at falkreath - dont know why)

- and 2-3 autosaves (falkreath and dawnstar - with two dragons )

- some old saves on usb sticks and ps3plus online

8 before uninstall i have lot of lag. it wasn′t possible to move from time to time. after reinstall i only have lag

- one time for a few minutes (days ago) so i can say, no lag

oh i dont have any quest for now. i try to do some thinks for me ant this time like buy some stuff for alchemie.

so i travel arround. i start again at falkreath cause my last save start there and i travel to whiterun and dawnstar

to see what happend again. after writing to the forum i have load save and travel back to home - and now game is on

pause, cause i answer you

Sure But the game has freeze at different places. so its annoying for me that this will happend after update 1.9

before 1.9 i only have an handfull freeze since i start the game the first time. thats the reason why i deinstall and install

again, and now its start again to freeze - not so often as before the uninstall, but at this time much more than ahead

the update to 1.9 - a few weeks after reinstall it works fine, no freeze - but the last 3 days it begins

ah ok, so i misunderstand, sorry

my save is now at 12 MB - and if this is to large for playing the game normal - than for me this is an bug...

Skyrim is an very extensiv game, with quest, stuff, NPCs, places, map etc. So it have to work with any

save equal what size - only my opinion - if not, it is n bug not an feature

12MB? yep, you are suffering from Save Game bloating. I start suffering symptoms of it after the 9MB mark.

I am not surprised since you said you have played it for Hundreds of Hours and have only played one character.

there is no way to fix a bloated save. your only option to fix those issues is to start a new character.

oh my Gosh !!! give me a moment...

So what i would do, hmm lets see...

[ First of all 18GB left is crap, for skyrim anyway, because the last 18GB from any HDD are very slow, so you have no performance gain from that.

So i would delete some stuff that i not use, or transfer them to another disk (movies, songs, etc. etc.)

(and if a say some stuff i mean your HDD should have at least 50GB left.) ]

So after that my friend you should do some backup - saves from your skyrim game.

Then i would do ASAP a Restore file system, and a Rebuild database as you can see here: http://www.semperthree.com/ps3recoverymenu.html

[ So as for the install part, i would suggest first install your game from your disc w/o connection so no 1.9 patch yet.

At the beginning of the game you choose settings and disable all auto-saves (all of them...)

Play for a while with a new character and after you do the "Unbound" quest quit. (so now all the install data from the disk have been written to your HDD.

After that go online and update the game to the 1.9 patch. And then you can download your DLC's as well.

So now you can load your backup saves that you have made earlier and play... ]

AND WE PLAY WITH AUTO-SAVES OFF (ALL OF THEM)*, AND WITHOUT CONNECTION

AND WE DON'T OVERRIDE SAVES EITHER

* I think you can save manually lol

Good luck buddy...
