Kotaku has the story about a possible bug/feature in the Hearthfire.

After you’ve built an entryway and a main hall for your manor, you can start selecting optional rooms like a library or kitchen. Each set of rooms is attached to a wing of the house — you can only build bedrooms in the west wing, for example — but you can only start planning out one room per wing at a time.

This is where the problems start. If you pick a plan from the west wing, start building parts of it over at the workbench, and then select another plan from the west wing at the drafting table, everything goes wonky. You can lose progress and even deny yourself access to entire rooms. (One of my blueprints disappeared entirely, and I can’t get it back.)

So what’s the solution? Build one thing at a time. Don’t pick multiple blueprints from the drafting table at once: just select one, finish all of its pieces at the workbench, and then move on to the next plan. Don’t get cute and experiment with drafting, or you might lock yourself out of some of the game’s content.


Let us know if you understand what on earth this means. Read it and more at Kotaku.

It means... The DLC sucks on XBox. Typical. And LoL @ the word "wonky". He must have been trying to build a chocolate factory.

lol, oke honestly nobody saw this coming? its quite obvious a new DLC will bring new glitches,
question is, what glitches?

this is the reason why i have a pc version,
course the mod community has devoted mod makers determinate to fix these glitches
i cant wait to buy Heartfire course as a pc/mod user/newly mod maker i know i have nothing to fear from the glitches XD

I guess the question is, should a PC version of this ever be released, will the bug be fixed. I think not.

Should a pc version be released, modders can fix if BUGthesda does not. +9000 to modders !
Then again they have lot of time before the PC version is released, can use that to polish fix.

I just realised that "30-day Xbox exclusivity period" is just a clever term for "paid open beta". Well played, Bethesda.
