Report: Skyrim’s New Patch Nukes All Resistances & Brings Backwards Flying Dragons With It
Bethesda’s latest patch for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim landed on consoles across the world today – and is in fact still being rolled out. However, initial reports across the internet state that unfortunately it brings with it backwards flying dragons for some users and nukes every resistance in the game.
Title update 1.2 was meant to fix many glitches and issues that had been discovered since the game’s November 11th release, and while it’s unclear whether it’s had the desired effect on those issues, the erratic dragons and lack of resistance for not just player characters, but for NPCs as well, are widely reported.
That means that any resistance to fire, frost, disease, etc. is currently borked as a result of the latest patch, meaning that Flame Atronachs are currently as susceptible to fire as they are frost. That means that any armour enchantment boasting a resistance to any element is currently ineffective too and that goes for any non-player characters and enemies as well.
This 1.2 update Skyrim snafu is one in a long line of Bethesda Game Studio issues with bugs and patches over recent years and will surely come as a disappointment to Skyrim fans as it seems a backwards step rather than a positive move. Of course, players can reject the patch and play offline until 1.3 comes, whenever that may be, but this is surely going to come as a disappointment to most Skyrim fans, effectively making the game worst post-patch than it was pre-patch.
Oh, and backwards flying dragons!
Fuck, working and real life sucks.
Maybe I'll find something that comes even close.
