1.2 got me laughing : V - Skyrim

» Mon Dec 12, 2011 2:01 am

Literally just last night I made myself a set of full Dragonplate and a set of full Ancient Nordic armour, both of which have 40% magic resist (to go with my 25% resist from the Lord Stone and 50% Nord Frost resist)... good timing!

I'm sure it'll get fixed soon, but for the first time ever I'm glad I came to work instead of playing Skyrim! Has anyone found this problem on the PC version?

PC patch isn't out yet so hard to tell.

» Mon Dec 12, 2011 4:25 am

Still haven't fixed the biggest issue of quest bugs.
I can't progress in either the main story or the war story

» Mon Dec 12, 2011 8:22 am

Yikes. And considering the way Bethesda works, we'll be left like this for 3-4 weeks.

» Mon Dec 12, 2011 11:29 am

FUUUUUUUU-

I literally finished downloading the patch as I entered this thread...

» Mon Dec 12, 2011 2:58 am

well just read that this bug is in the 360 patch as well. My Breton Battlemage is going to be screwed

woohoo! Win for the Not-Jumping-On-The-Update-Bandwagon!
I tend to wait for patches to be out a week or so before downloading just for this type of thing.

EDIT: Huh. That didn't work out as planned.

Anyway that's pretty funny stuff, hope to test it when i get home from work.

This is bad. Bad, bad and bad. Beth need to get their act together or these forums are going to go ballistic. Looks like my Alteration perks just became meaningless! :facepalm:

» Mon Dec 12, 2011 1:49 am

Was just about to plug my network cable into the 360 when thought I'll check forum first, see what is happening...

Lady Nocturnal is looking down on me. :bowdown:

For this I have turned off my auo updates on steam. but imagine the debarkle that will arrise when the PC patch comes out.

» Mon Dec 12, 2011 11:20 am

I never thought I would be on the verge of complete rage on these forums but this is the last straw!

» Mon Dec 12, 2011 8:01 am

If there's really such big bugs in the new patch, I bet it's a matter of time before Bethesda goes on E-bay: 'WTB regression tests'.

Seriously, bad bad Bethesda (IF true). If a patch takes money and time to release on Xbox, at least make sure it's properly tested for regression.

Btw, this is coming from someone who hasn't complained at all about existing bugs or w/e. I love Skyrim. But this... omg

im afraid of that day.....we will hear the phrase :cryvaultboy: dumbed down used quite a bit

Even with no resistances, dragons never did much damage to me with their breath attacks.

Can't wait for the patch to push out for PCs so NOTHING CAN CHANGE FOR ME.

» Mon Dec 12, 2011 12:12 pm

You know you've screwed up when people are disabling an auto update feature just to avoid a patch! :goodjob:

» Mon Dec 12, 2011 5:20 am

Wait, can we become both a werewolf and vampire now?

» Sun Dec 11, 2011 11:53 pm

Didnt I just see like a dozen 'buff dragon' threads like a week ago?

Kidding, I've never bothered with resists gear, but I can see why people might get annoyed by this

» Mon Dec 12, 2011 1:05 pm

So 3 months from now the game might be halfway patched?

» Mon Dec 12, 2011 3:28 pm

Does this affect all NCP resistences or just the PC? Because this could make destruction magic much more appealing.

» Mon Dec 12, 2011 5:09 am

its not just the "buff" gear affected, its everything, all the resist disease, all the resist poison, all the racial resist affects like nords having resist frost and dunmer resist fire. that is all gone, well at least its been all made to 0% for the time being. This also means that the fire sword you use to [censored] frost trolls with, no longer raqes them as they no longer have weakness to fire, nor does it mean they are resistant to frost, which means fire and frost spells do the same damage to a frost troll. this then = [censored] stupid

» Mon Dec 12, 2011 12:23 am

Dragon Shouts always bypassed resistances.

Jeepers, how can I deactivate downloads on Steam? I don't want this buggy patch?

edit: Found it. You can select it via properties for each game.

Turn off automatic updates.

library>esv>right click>properties>updates>turn off

For this I have turned off my auo updates on steam. but imagine the debarkle that will arrise when the PC patch comes out.

Don't count on that working. Steam has a tenancy to re-enable it.

If you have a copy of the release day exe try this.

The better option is to make a copy of the TESV.exe, rename the current exe to something else. (I use TESV4GB.exe) Then drop the copied TESV.exe back in the directory. Now simply make a new shortcut pointing to TESV4GB.exe. Steam can update the TESV.exe all it likes, just don't use it. It's best to make a backup of every exe after it's patched in case you ever need to go back.

I've turned off auto updates in Steam and have made a backup copy of my current TESV.exe file. I think I'll wait a bit before updating my game, which has had very few issues anyway.

» Mon Dec 12, 2011 6:04 am

Resist Poison and Resist Disease are apparently gone, too.
Meaning you can be a werewolf and a vampire now. A VampWulf. :rolleyes:
