Bethesda To Angry Skyrim Players: “Calm Down, We’re Working On It”

Bethesda To Angry Skyrim Players: “Calm Down, We’re Working On It”

Posted by: Ernice Gilbert November 15, 2011 in Bethesda, News, PC, PS3 3 Comments

As of late, Skyrim’s been suffering with some rather unusual bugs, and publisher/developer Bethesda’s been working overtime to get a patch out the door and onto the respective platforms. However gamers all over are complaining to the ceiling about a game which was released only three days ago, demanding a patch immediately, and in turn Bethesda’s responded with matching vigor.

“We are continuing to work on an update for all platforms to address issues any bugs and performance issues we can. Patches and updates take a little time,” said Pete Hines, VP of PR and Marketing at Bethesda in a plethora of tweets. “We can’t turn it around quite that fast. It’s been three days. Calm down. We’re working on it.”

Bethesda’s also addressing the texture problem affecting Xbox 360 versions of the game. The problem occurs for those who install Skyrim on their hard drives, suddenly textures don’t load up properly, and the result is blurry visuals. “We will fix as much as we can for your platform,” Hines added. “I don’t know if it will fix ‘your’ bug. Takes a while to test/fix/regress. Hang in there.”

    of course fans are pissed off, every god dam game bugthesda release is riddled with bugs to the point their unplayable!
    thats it, im done buying bugthesdas games!
    they cant be stuffed debugging them BEFORE they come out, then i cant be stuffed going down to the store and wasting 100 bucks on them.
    how about this bugthesda?
    will calm down and wait, but you have to give us our money back.
    then when the patch releases, then you can have our money back.
    deal?
    i did not spend 100 bucks so i can have the game sitting here looking pretty!
    i get to play the game in 2 weeks time, then you get my money in 2 weeks time.
    i dont pay for games i cant play!

    I get why they are getting frustrated with gamers because they are complaining a lot, but the fact is that you made a product that is advertised to work and we pay for a lot of money for this product and expect it to work. It is the right of the consumer to complain about something that they have been waiting for for a long time and paid a lot of money for, just to have it not work. If this happens to a tv or computer, we take it back. So they need to stop complaining about the customers and fix their product so they those CUSTOMERS keep buying your broken games.

    if this was the first buggy game they made, no one would be saying anything!
    but when your releasing broken piece of tripe after broken piece of tripe, of course people are going to complain!
    as the saying goes, fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me!
    1 buggy game ok, but buggy game after buggy game, after buggy game just smacks a bit of a “i dont give a ^%$# about my games, i just want money!”.

    as the CEO of apple australia said to me the other week, customer loyalty is THE MOST important thing!
    if a product breaks, you loose the trust with the customer and its your job to fix it.
    telling them to shut up and wait, is not exactly going to make them say ok i forgive you!
    theres a reason why apple are THE most valued company in the world!
    they give a %$#@ about their fans, and thats why every new product they release is sold out for months!
    maybe peter and co need to go spend a few weeks at apple………
