1.9 Patch Causing Crashes and New Issues : V

» Wed Apr 10, 2013 2:02 am

So for months and months I've played Skyrim for hours on end with only the occasional lag as new cells loaded, but I haven't experienced crashes in perhaps a year. But then, when I downloaded the 1.9 patch yesterday, my game crashed after perhaps only an hour and a half of playtime. Not only that, but I'm a Vampire Lord, and on two separate occasions, bears I used Vampiric Grip on flew at least 50-70 ingame feet into the air and floated about the same distance away before abruptly falling to the ground. Mind you, I wasn't purposefully launching these bears, I was hardly tossing them at all. In all honesty I find this rather amusing now, but I know it'll get old fast when everything I use Vampiric Grip on flies off.

I haven't noticed any other issues yet, and the Dragonborn quest for the DLC has started but I haven't actively pursued it yet. Here's hoping Patch 1.9 doesn't introduce any game-breaking bugs and that the crash I experienced was just a coincidence, though judging from some of the other recent threads, I'm not alone with this issues.
