WDeranged Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 Pretty widespread from what I've read, same issues on the consoles too. After thinking myself rather clever for backing up the exe it turns out they updated Interface.bsa as well, if you use the old executable it breaks the map, it took me well over an hour to put it right but if you look around less reputable places the files from the last update are still available...damn it Steam.
Gorgon Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 The longer I play the more bug show up. My fence keeps asking me if I want to upgrade a POS guild armor I sold ages ago and I can't get to the sell/buy screen to unload my haul. The dark brotherhood quest line is stuck in a loop, the same 3 assassinations who mysteriously come back to life every time I get done with them. The eye texture bug is back, using the latest GFX drivers... Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
entrerix Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 (edited) my next playthrough i will only accept quests i intend to complete immediately. that way i won't have tons of quests in my "to do" list, so i can hopefully avoid the quest "tunnel vision" that I, and others, tend to experience in these kinds of games. Edited November 30, 2011 by entrerix Killing is kind of like playin' a basketball game. I am there. and the other player is there. and it's just the two of us. and I put the other player's body in my van. and I am the winner. - Nice Pete.
HoonDing Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 (edited) Well, I finished the main quest. It was okay, but nothing special. End boss was pathetic, I just pressed and held the left mouse button to unleash Lightning Storm and that was that. I killed 30 dragons in total, the majority of those on mountain tops (never experienced any dragon "cliffracer" syndrom other people appear to have), still need to kill 14 to master all shouts. So far I say College of Winterhold > Thieves Guild > Daedric quests > Main quest > Companions. Edited November 30, 2011 by virumor The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Maria Caliban Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 That makes me want to start over as a thieving mage. "When is this out. I can't wait to play it so I can talk at length about how bad it is." - Gorgon.
HoonDing Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 I might restart as a Bosmer or Khajiit to do the Thieves Guild properly and the Dark Brotherhood. I don't know if archery is any fun, but sneak is very powerful. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Tigranes Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 Archery is quite fun, though it progressively became a bit too weak for me at higher levels. But maybe because I couldn't really enchant great bows. Restarted with a Dunmer, planning to either two-hander or 1h+melee plus alteration.

Spider Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 I find archery to be much easier than anything melee orientated. And I have the nightingale bow, which is pretty good. But the last perk in archery is just amazing and triggers on almost everything apart from dragons.
MrBrown Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 So far I say College of Winterhold > Thieves Guild > Daedric quests > Main quest > Companions. Really? I thought the College-line was a boring dungeon romp. Got really bored of Dwemer and Falmers. Thieves Guild has been the best, in my opinion, though I've yet to play the MQ or Dark Brotherhood.
Gorgon Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 You can enchant a total of 4 items with a total 100 point, or % archery boost - I don't know how that works exactly, not counting two damage enchantments on the bow. Enchantment is just as overpowered as in all the TES games. There is nothing discoverable that even comes close. Similarly you don't actually need any points in magica once you can enchant your gear with dual magic school boosts. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
Tale Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 Except you need magicka before that, so if you drop all your magicka cost, you're wasting investments. And the pieces that accept fortify school are also many of the same pieces that accept resist. And resist is nice. I found that -100% destruction, - 50% conjuration, and some resist was a good balance. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
HoonDing Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 You need to find the right enchantments on loot to disenchant before that, too. Resist magic is easy, though. Lord stone + Blessing of Mara gives already 40%. Add alteration perks and you only need one item enchanted to max it out. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Tigranes Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 The nightingale bow is decent. I never got my enchanting/smithing up high enough to really get the good stuff though, that might be it. For the perks, if there are 2 nodes that connect to a final node, do you need both as prerequisites or only one? I usually find I only want one branch. My Dunmer character continues at Level 7, am going for 1h/block/alteration and also smith/enchant bit more seriously. I'm finding some battles are a lot harder but some are easier (the draugr, for instance), and it also lets me use a lot more weapons that I find. Might reverse the order of cities and head West first towards Markarth.

Spider Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 You only need one. My character can make dragon armor, but not daerdra. Which is why the Nightinggale bow is the best I've got available so far. I can't enchant better than what is on it (a lot worse in fact) and I can craft a better one myself.
entrerix Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 first thing im doing is drastically changing the perk requirements. i'd rather have 5 interesting perk choices per level, than maybe 1 Killing is kind of like playin' a basketball game.

Gorgon Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 I have about 5 broken quests now and they have stopped updating, quest pointers don't show up anymore. Time to pack it in I think, if they ever patch it for the PC it's unlikely that it wil be retroactive ad I put too much time in just to just start over. Got about half way in the main quest, which was ok I guess. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
Tigranes Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 Look up the quests in UESPWiki, then use the console (~) ingame to manually make the quests update. The command is something like setstage [questid] [stagenumber], both variables available in the wiki sites.

Gorgon Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 (edited) Alt Gr toggle is not avalable in the console. Can't do [] regardless of what keyboard layout I use. From what I could gather from Wikipedia it should be, it's just not. Whaterver windows is doing to produce the keys corresponding to an American setup, it's not happening inside the console.

Gorgon Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 It might be the ****ty keymapping I suppose, but I can't reset to default, that function is likely in conflict. Either way, nothing happens when I try. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.

Gorgon Posted December 3, 2011 Posted December 3, 2011 You can now enjoy the imposible inventory with voice activation for every mouse click and navigation. Crouch to crouch in the game world.
