NO, bugs? Surely you jest.

Well, if nothing else Beth is consistent anyway.

That's good to know ppl who have consoles cannot fix bugs by simply opening the console :-D or adding mods, but console ports like Sleeping Dogs or Rage usually don't have much bugs. Just started my firt playthrough of Just Cause 2, I wonder how they even managed to make that all work on xbox360 [via gtx560 on the brink of 30 fps], but the are no bugs too and it seems like not the DLC's but all Skyrim was made for xbox360 first then ported to PC without fixing all those bugs at all. It reminded me the Stalker meme.

And I've had zero issues with the Build Your Own Home mod, even though I run 100+ other mods with it. How is it that a lone modder does a better job than an entire team of professional game developers?

This smacks of a small team of about 4 developers testing their own code and putting a stamp on it, which is always a bad idea. I'm a test engineer by trade, and one of the first test cases you try to pass is execution path verification, and that's all that's failing here. If a QA engineer ever laid eyes on this he would have caught it. Testing is important! Maybe I should put in an app at Bethesda; I'd love to mod and get paid to do it. And neither of us seemingly have a QA department, so I think we have a lot in common.

A few of points, Wallettheif. First, the BYOH mod is currently sitting at version 1.82 with numerous fixes, revisions and additions made since it was first released several months ago. Awesome as BYOH is, saying it never had any issues is a little dishonest.

Second, just because you have not had issues does not mean that nobody else has. A lot of people haven't run into any issues with Hearthfire, either.

Finally, Hearthfire wasn't developed by an entire team. It was three or four guys, each of them specialized in what they brought to the table. The guy who handled the scripts missed a condition check. I don't want to make excuses for it, but it's not game breaking and you have to go out of your way to trigger it. That not nearly as bad as the install-corrupting shenanigans you can get from careless modding.

So is this the future of how what a DLC offers is going to be listed? As bug/features?

[morphaus]

us pc user's better of with modding, than paying for broken stuff

[DarkPhoenixxy]

I wonder what modder will fix this first when Hearthfire reaches PC.

Bugs on Skyrim. Such a news,no? ¬¬ I don't think it makes the game worse. It's just so...normal.
