Fans rage but Bethesda says nothing.
The promised January Skyrim patch 1.04 is not here. Bethesda didn’t release the update and didn’t even bother to mention a word about it. Fans of the game in response have been fuming all over the Skyrim forums, yet the developer failed to say a word. What’s going on?
In December 2011, Bethesda head of marketing and PR Pete Hines said: “I wanted to stop in and give everyone a quick update before the holidays. Patch 1.3 is up for everyone, as is the PC LAA version. The January 1.4 update is well underway right now for all platforms, along with the Creation Kit and Steam Workshop integration on PC.
We know everyone’s experience is unique, and it’s made a huge difference being able to look first hand at things you were seeing. Through this we’ve learned the game can get in some states where it severely taxes the PS3 in particular. We’ve been working hard to find and fix those with your help.”
It’s March 1st, and no patch has been deployed. But that in of itself wouldn’t be too bad, companies miss deadlines they set for themselves all the time. However Bethesda could at least send out a written statement to its fans, informing them of the reason for the delay, and issuing an apology – but nothing?
We’re sure patch 1.04 will be released soon enough, but the lack of communication isn’t doing the firm any good.
this is a company that should be asking for forgiveness not From Software
Agreed.
None more dejected that I…117hrs in…..patch the damn game!!!!!!
