Skyrim’s most needed PS3 1.4 patch last in line

InEnt writes: According to noise on blogs and forums the PS3 version of Skyrim has either the most issues, or has users hurting the most from problems like the frame-rate bug. Not all players feel this way but after spending a few hours over the past week analyzing reactions to Skyrim’s 1.4 patch it seems PS3 users are most desperate to get their hands on the download. It’s for this reason why we find it strange how the PlayStation 3 is the last in line to receive the 1.4 patch.

Some people say Sony has had a busy week and that's why the next PS3 patch is running later than Microsoft, although I wonder how those PS3 gamers feel especially if they have loads of bugs.

Great to be a Pc gamer. just downloaded the HD textures patch ;)

[Snookies12]

Yeah, I would have bought it for my PC, but I wanted my brother to be able to play it as well. I was hoping it would at least run decently... I was wrong however. :\

Maybe I'll be able to actually go back and play the game again after my 4 week hiatus from horrible game breaking lag.

[CaptainMarvelQ8]

goddamit an are you here just to rub it in?

[harrisk954]

No offense, but these "Great to be PC gamer", "Great to have all 3 systems", etc. comments are really starting to grate on me.

@captainmarvel

Do not be offended man, the HD textures are probably on the way to the PS3 and the Xbox 360 too, its just that MS and Sony havent validated the patch yet. Who knows maybe they are just delaying the patch because they want to give it as a charged DLC to the console crowd.

[frostypants]

reynod, why are you so insecure as to have to brag about something as stupid as your PC?

[Diver]

your not much of a pc gamer. I downloaded it night before last from steam.

I also got the ps3 version too an the problems with that version are only a issue cause the pc an 360 crowd have blown it out of proportion. that's real insecurity. I played my ps3 version more than the pc so far.

[thedude44]

this is about ps3, not pc.

[TheTwelve]

The "I have all three systems" bragging has bothered me since 2007. So you're indecisive and can't stand for anything. Nothing to brag about.

[gcolley]

children brag. they'll grow out of it one day (hopefully)

[didutz]

It is really interesting and I am sure that other people thinks this too.

They served the systems with the biggest fanbase first. Standard business practice.

[Snookies12]

I don't believe it's about that actually, Bethesda just has some kind of relationship with Microsoft. Ever since Morrowind came out on Xbox and never made it to PS2. Kinda wish the series had just stayed PC exclusive at this point.

[Tonester925]

They said that they are waiting for Sony to approve the patch. I think that this is the "Fix all problems for PS3, or lose a lot of PS3 fans and respect" So I think they are taking their time to make sure everything is in order and is working.

Imagine is something new starts messing up the game after the patch lol. *Knocks on wood*

[MAJ0R]

Well PS3 is last place, it only makes sense it will be last to get the 1.4 patch...

Just kidding, usually this happens where the days the patch is released ends up being different for every platform. I really do feel bad for the people who bought this on the PS3, Bethesda really just didn't care one bit about it which is really telling about what kind of developer they are.

[N311V]

This has nothing to do with Bethesda having a bias towards one console over the other., the patch was submitted to Sony and Microsoft at the same time. It's simply that Sony have taken longer to approve it.

[portal_2]

Nope, PS3 should have been first. No excuse - just shows how hard some devs ride it nowadays.

[frostypants]

The PS3 patch has a lot more to address than the other versions, right? So why WOULDN'T you expect it to possibly take a bit longer?

[MizTv]

well ill never know if it gets fixed after i got my plat i sold it. i dont think i is that good of a game 3 and 4 are both more fun . but thats just me

[sticky doja]

"i dont think i is that good of a game"

But good enough to take the 10s if not 100s of hours to get a platinum trophy.

[Arts1000]

I does not matter about this PATCH ...............
Bethesda knowingly sold a broken game .

Come on people , wake up ,the all mighty patch
has become a production standard for Bethesda .
How many more months of patches will it take until
this game actually plays .

Totally unacceptable

[Bladesfist]

You guys like speaking for everyone, me and quite a lot of people have not had any major issues with the game

[Almir908]

Liar..If you have this game on the PS3 and you say it doesn't have any major issues then you're lying

[Bladesfist]

He never mentioned PS3 he said the game is broken. Im playing on PC and the game aint broken...

[thesummerofgeorge]

But this thread is about the PS3 version; you know this...

[Bladesfist]

Then why is it tagged for PC and 360 as well.

[thesummerofgeorge]

Because the game is multiplatform. The article and more specifically this thread, is regarding the PS3 version needing this patch the most. Moreover, it's obvious to anyone with half a brain that that's what op was referring to, as the other versions don't have this problem.

So there's no reason for you to point out that you aren't having issues on the PC version, given the fact that no one said the PC version has this problem, and again, that's clearly not what he/she was talking about..... I'm a little surprised I had to explain that, but in reality I think you're being intentionally obtuse.

[frostypants]

I've been saying that for yeeeaaaars. Bethesda has been releasing glitch fests since the first Elder Scrolls. It's not gonna change now, sadly.

[MizTv]

i was so far along in the game and i beat every game i get and if i can get the plat ill get it but it doesnt mean i have to like it

[ranma6899]
