Bethesda: Skyrim's Dawnguard DLC No-Show on PS3 "Is Not a Problem We're Positive We Can Solve"
Written Friday, August 31, 2012 By Richard Walker
View author's profile

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim's vampiric DLC Dawnguard has been on Xbox Live for over a month now, but it's future on PS3 looks somewhat bleak due to a technical problem on the console that's preventing it from going any further. It's thought that it could have something to do with the save game frame rate glitch on PS3.

Bethesda Community Lead 'gstaff' addressed the add-on's no-show on PS3, with an explanation:  "It's been a few weeks, and we wanted to make sure everyone knows where we're at with Dawnguard. Skyrim is a massive and dynamic game that requires a lot of resources, and things get much more complex when you're talking about sizeable content like Dawnguard. We have tried a number of things, but none of them solve the issue enough to make Dawnguard good for everyone.

"The PS3 is a powerful system, and we're working hard to deliver the content you guys want. Dawnguard is obviously not the only DLC we've been working on either, so the issues of adding content get even more complicated. This is not a problem we're positive we can solve, but we are working together with Sony to try to bring you this content.

"We wish we had a more definitive answer right now. We understand the frustration when the same content is not available on all platforms. When we have an update, we will certainly let you know. We deeply appreciate all the time and support you have given us, and we'll keep doing our best to return that."

With Dawnguard's fate on PS3 hanging in the balance, it's entirely possible that the newly announced Hearthfire add-on might also fail to make the cut. We'll have more on this as it happens, but for now, you may have to reduce your Skyrim DLC expectations to zero.

Fuck you, Bethesda! You managed to permanently alienate a good portion of your fanbase. I hope sucking Microsoft's dick was worth it. That being said, I imagine the final nail in the coffin will be coming soon.

Dear Beth:
I was faithful to you, then you screwed around on me, time and time again, but because I cared, I kept giving you second and third chances.
But this time, with Microsoft, my EX...of all people, I hope you get some serious crotch rot.

On a side note, Beth, you like timed exclusives?

Ok then, I now give all my gaming money to other companies that dont do timed exclusives first, then I'll snag a pre played copy of your timed exclusives from gamestop from the bargin bin, just to spite your attitude.

PS3 players are not second class gamers, if a developer is going to treat us as such, then I say, piss off...I'm not looking for your sloppy seconds.

I don't really see why everyone thinks this is a timed exclusive for the 360/PC versions of the game. It's not; it's technical issues that are only present on the PS3. We shouldn't be surprised at this either, seeing as Skyrim has been plagued by bugs/technical issues from day one. You can do either one of two things, either wait patiently for it to be fixed and released or purchase it on either 360 or PC.

anyone else think gstaff is saying a lot of BS and full of crap. i wonder how much of that is true that he is saying. due to the fact they have had issues since fallout 3 and everybody else (other developers) aren't having any of the problems. you think they would have learned to start with the ps3 first or pc and save the 360 for last on development. considering how long its been going i'm kind of suprised someone (anywhere) hasn't made the decision to stop all falouts and elder scrolls from coming out ont the ps3 due to how many/old some of the problems are (don't know about elder scrolls oblivion). also this announcement makes me wonder if microsoft and paying beth to screw over sony systems to.

Epic fail. Bethesda are flat out useless.
I could've gotten Dawnguard for xbox but I thought i'd wait til it was released on PS3 to make the experience better and now this BS?!
No Oblivion trophy patch, taking forever releasing overpriced DLC for Fallout 3 and NV and now this crap while they're starting to develop another DLC pack for 360? That's pathetic. You'd think they'd wait til one problem is solved before they start on something else.
Someone should buy out their company and actually develop instead of fucking around >_>

I'm not buying any of their games for PS3 or 360 anymore.

@3 - hahaha that was gold dude, I tip my hat off to you. That was well spoken and I couldn't have said it any better myself.

Bethesda is severly starting to disappoint me. I, like #3 there, have given Bethesda so many chances of my patience because I always loved The Elder Scrolls and Fallout series' and thought that the next would be even better. As much as I do think Skyrim was amazing this DLC thing is a giant disappointment. And they are acting like this is an excuse for them to give up and just not give PS3 users the content. I have been disappointed with companies before.. But not like this.

I'm not even gonna bother rewriting my thesis about this, so I'll just paraphrase it:

To ALL GAMERS (Sony & Microsoft):

STOP BUYING FROM BETHESDA! The royal screwjob that Bethesda has given PS3 users since Fallout 3 should be a call to arms to ALL GAMERS, no matter your allegiance to what system. We are all gamers, so when almost half of the consumer base for a company gets treated like a red headed stepchild, we should ALL come together.

DO NOT GIVE BETHESDA A GODDAMNED PENNY OF YOURS! If you need to purchase from them, buy only used and GOTY used.

You hear day in and day out of QUALITY devs and publishers going under, yet this abortion of a company thrives. Let us come together and show Bethesda NO MORE!

What are you talking about? There is a 30 day "timed-exclusivity" on the DLC for the 360 before its released on other platforms. Just like it did for RE:Operation RC, COD, and others.

"Dumbass"? Good one. You got me there. Isn't 4chan or the youtube comments section missing you by now?

As of July, 32.5 million PS3's sold. 35.5 million Xbox's sold. That's not collateral damage.

Whatever. I'm the dumbass for getting sucked into an argument with a troll. Not wasting anymore energy on you. Gonna focus it on Bethesda now. Good day.

Xbox 360 is a Dell PC, they didn't even bother to change the case design in the year it was released. It makes programming for it very easy once they finish the PC version of a game, since its just a port.

Sony tried something bold with the PS3, and sometimes (like now) its biting them in the arse. Like a vastly insufficient amount of onboard ram that creates most all the bottle necking problems Bethesda has in their games. Might explain why rumors point the next Sony console using off the shelf components, like the Xbox does. Easier programming for the developers.

Oh wait....

And I dont know about where you live,but here in the real world 35.5m is a bigger number than 32.5m.And with the sales numbers of the actual game itself (which has sold highest on pc,followed by xbox then lastly ps3),yes,you ARE collateral damage through no one's fault but sony.Its funny,if the game was xbox/pc exclusive (not the DLC,the actual game) you guys would hate it saying its the worst game ever and thank god its not on ps3.You gambled on a console,and lost because of the maker.Deal with it.

Whatever... if Fallout 3 (i.e. Beth's last great game overall, Morrowind being the last great TES game) is any indication, the DLC probably would've broken the game anyhow.

I cannot believe Bethesda are basically saying they shit developers technically, how long has the PS3 be out? I really think Bethesda should stick to the Xbox & PC, and let the dev's that know what there doing develop for the PS3 it's to much for them like they've just pointed out.

Inexcusable, Bethesda are supposed "proffesional" developers/publishers. They can't develop games for the PS3 and that is simply not good enough, a good workman never blames his tools, Bethesda and some muppets on this website seem to think its the Ps3s fault........well all I'm going to say to that us Uncharted 1-3.........graphics, story an gameplay that surpass oblivion an skyrim in everyway. No blurry up close textures, no ridiculous bugs or glitches and a developer that doesn't blame the hardware for their issues.

Fact is they are nine fucking idle and really just Cba with the ps3, it may be a bit harder to program on Sonya hardware but other developers have managed......demons and dark souls are fucking HUGE games, biggest in game issue I saw was bad Frame rate drop in blight town.

Seems Bethesda are to complacent with keepin Microsoft happy. I won't be buying their games pre owned either coz they never work on ps3 anyway

worst part is that even if it is released...I will still have to put up with constant bitching from you guys about how it should be free and 20$ is too much since you had to wait. that logic is flawed because dlc prices almost always seem the same and never drop.

you cant really be surprised. look at the track record. Oblivion...no trophy patch..not all dlc made available...(smaller dlc's similiar to this hearthfire one are available for pc/xbox but never made available to ps3) fallout 3...dlc released kind of on time but they were glitchy and unplayable for a long time. hell even skyrim's normal release...ps3 version was virtually shit on in terms of patches and what not.

exclusivity to dlc was announced way before the game came out...so you guys had the option of getting it on a pc or xbox 360. and dont give me stories about how they are a horrible developer because ps3 has been out for 4 years and they should know how to develop on it by now. Do you know the specifics of what is involved? Unless you do...then shutup.

How on earth are there still people out there that are dumb enough to think that the problems with the ps3 DLC has anything to do with bethesda's timed release deals with Microsoft.


Well this is disappointing, but at least the finally just came out and said. I guess I'll just have to wait for their next elder scrolls game to keep playing. Unlike most users here I'm not going to cry about how Bethesda raped my family and I can never be happy again because they had some programming issues when it came to their excellent game that many of the same users once claimed was the best game of the year.

I wish these mother fuckers would just admitt it was never going to be released on the ps3 instead of feeding us storys about how focused they are on other projects. maybe if they focused on 1 at a time instead of juggling between Microsofts cock and balls they would at least manage to make a smooth running title.... liars and fools imo

I'll be completely honest, I think Bethesda could just redeem their-self to PS3 users by just making a patch for Werewolves and Vampires and add the weapons and skill trees. That's...essentially the only reason why it has any worth at all. if they just did that for ps3 users and...maybe add a couple quests just in skyrim, I'd be content.

I love how they always make it sound like the issue practivally has to exist because Skyrim is such an awesome game. "You can't have a great game like Skyrim and its add-ons run properly, it's much too good. Cut us some slack!"

It's also cute how they say: "We never announced that content for any other platform." As if that made it any better. Besides, if you call it a timed exclusive DLC and say the exclusivity lasts for 30 days, how is that not an announcement? It's pointless to call it timed if it's forever.

Besides, since when does Bethesda have an issue realeasing unfinished, not properly working games? And now they pretend like it's a no-go.

(In case you wonder, no, I liked Skyrim even on PS3. I encountered pretty much every quest bug, but it never had performance issues, but I know I've been very lucky with that.)

Unbelievable. They could get Oblivion and Fallout DLC's working, why not this one?

It's a shame, because they were one of my favorite developers until now. I hope they at least release a GOTY edition so PS3 owners can experience the DLC's. But it better be a cheap GOTY edition, $30 max.

fucking terrible, selling back skyrim now. Fuck you. ive tried to stick with you thru thick and thin, but this is it. Dishonored was gonna be a must buy but it probably wont even fuckin work cause the ps3 has been out for 6 years and you still cant figure it out. fuckin retards. Thanks EA and DICE for knowing how to use the PS3 and treating us better than gay ass microsoft. But either way, timed exclusives and and exclusive DLC is stupid anyways. Why even make the game on both systems if only one system will get to enjoy the full story. Good thing Borderlands 2 comes out in a couple weeks and i can use my trade in money from shitty skyrim and get much better BORDERLANDS 2. EAT A DICK BETHESDA!! 86 your worthless ass.

On Topic: I have heard many good things about Skyrim from my IRL friends, and they alll sya to me "You should get this game IT'S AWESOME!!!"

This article right here explains why I won't be getting Skyrim for my PS3 OR my 360.

Honestly, at this point I'm not even interested in Dawnguard or Skyrim DLC, for that matter. I bought it for $40 at release and played two characters for a total of 150+ hours, and I'm happy with that.

This just means I'm going to be spending that $20 elsewhere, more than likely on a competent developer like Gearbox, Eidos or id. You know... a developer that can release things for more than one console, lol.

That said, maybe Bethesda should seek outside help from the aforementioned developers, or possibly someone that can do wondrous things with PS3 hardware like Konami, Naughty Dog, Insomniac, Sucker Punch, Media Molecule... Silly me, I'm rambling off competent developers, again. ^-^

I can't even blame Bethesda. Not at all. If I knew I could put out a broken bug-infested game and PS3 owners would HAPPILY buy 4 million copies of it, I'd fuck 'em right up the ass too. Game of the year! Perfect 10/10! Yeah, see where all that ass-kissin' got ya.

I was holding off on the GOTY edition with all the DLC included at some late date, guess I can pretty much just go get the regular game now and figure thats all I am getting - cause his words dont exactly ring with optimism...

WAIT, what the Fu&% did I just say. I promised myself after hard restarting my pS3 for the 118th time on FO3 I would never go down that Bethesda road again, whooo that was close!

I use the "Money-Back" rule, when dealing with developers like Bethesda, SNK Playmore, Capcom, etc. I'll buy their first iteration of a game (i.e. Street Fighter 4). I've bought the first alternate outfit packs, 2nd pack, SSF4 DLC, 3rd pack, Arcade Edition, 4th outfit pack. I was thoroughly raped down the street from that experience, considering how it was leaked about the SSF4 characters a month after Vanilla was released. Now, I picked up MVC3 (free+no DLC), UMVC3 (used), SFxTekken (haven't picked it up, yet). You see, I've got to get that rape feeling out of my system, by making YOU (Capcom) feel some of my pain...lol. EFF companies that do this to us. And as another commenter had said earlier, if you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem...

P.S. Qdawg187, you're a piece of sh*t...

I read this story millions of times when the ps3 came out. Thought they would have figured it out by now. There like that kid at school that after 5 years still hadn't the faintest idea about Pythagoras theorem - why squares when it's a triangle?

It seems yet another developer has made it onto my "do not buy any of their products" list. The statement they made sounds like nothing but an excuse to not give PS3 users this DLC. Oh well, if Skyrim has as many bugs & glitches as people say, why the hell would I pay $78 for it? (Yeah, we Australians get screwed over when it comes to game prices, considering Skyrim's launch price was $108)

not surprised tbh, after the nonsense they pulled with Oblivion's DLC and lack of a trophy patch, even after a 3rd re-release of the game.

but that explantion (er...excuse) they posted up is just lame, it realy sounds like amateur hour.

but i think we all have learned now that the PS3 is not the way to go if you want to enjoy Bethesda's game. i hope they get their shit together by the time the PS4 drops. but i am done with them this gen

LOL! Dude, that was hilarious. XD
I pretty much agree on all counts

@Qdawg
Why the hell would you come to a PS3 Trophy site to bitch about PS3's hardware? That's like going to a tolerance convention dressed as a kkk member. Wow, awesome, you have a couple of gig of ram. Who doesn't idiot?

I think quite a few 360 fanboys have reared their ugly heads here to have a laugh. Quite sad really when as gamers who have been isolated we have every right to have a bitch.

No prob, didn't want to return to Skyrim on PS3 anyway.

Should have gotten this on PC in the first place.....and all future places AFTER careful consideration.

Here's hoping Hearthfire stays off PS3 as well...

Didn't even pick up Fallout:NV because of the bad experiences I had TRYING to play Fallout 3. Glad I didn't pick this game up at all.

See you on the next gen Bethesda, let's hope you don't make shoddy ports then, and build an engine that works on both systems properly.

How hard can it be to fix!? Really!? How about you get some decent staff that ACTUALLY no what they are doing!? You released the FULL GAME on PS3 but you're struggling with a DLC patch none the less!! Man up and get good!!

I hope that Elder Scrolls online gets released on console just so I can PURPOSELY GO OUT MY WAY NOT TO BUY IT!!

I've tried my best to back this company, hell I even bought Brink! and you developed Skyrim for how long? Oh! only about 3 years and its piss poor! and you were fully aware of this before release but you went ahead and released it anyway and took our money in the process!!

What, NOW Bethesda suddenly cares about giving PS3 players a working product? Where was that when they released broken version of Fallout 3, Fallout New Vegas, and Skyrim?

Anyway, on the plus side, at least people are finally starting to open their eyes and see what a massive pile of shit this company is.

This is why Sony should have done something Nintendo did on the N64, exchangeable RAM packs. The RAM is a joke on the PS3 since it came out, and Bethesda's engines are RAM users. The Xbox users might get some of these problems if the put A LOT of hours into these games, but since the Xbox's RAM is twice as much, the engine can drain from it. You can't always rely on pure processing power when it comes to computers, it will only get you so far. And by the way, I love all 18 of my systems equally and differently.

I am a PS3 gamer, and I loved Skyrim, but I honestly do not care about this, personally.

However, Bethesda is really fucking up bad with this, to be honest, downright lazy response.

"Oh well we don't know when we'll have it ready...actually, we might not be able to have it ready at all".

It really does show favoritism, and in a market like this, when you are reaching out to all markets ( Microsoft, Sony, and PC gamers) you can't afford to show this level of favoritism, because you're cutting a third of the market away from you. And why? pure laziness

doesn't affect me at all, i never have and never will bought a bethesda developed game

i know how bad they are at designing game engines, and how lazy they are once heir product is available, as soon as its out, they start on DLC (or the dlc that wasn't finished before release)


i always have, and always will troll any bethesda news, i'm tired of what they get away with......and am now very ashamed that id are part of the same company, hoped that it would work out with id making good engines, and beth. making "good" games....but no, all we got was a rushed dodgy FPS, and yet more of the same broken engine crap copy n paste effort of fallout with dragons

yes they say it's a new engine, they're not fully lying, it's a highly edited version of the same thing, plain text drivel meaning it runs like shit and breaks every 10 seconds


yet everybody laps it all up, ignoring random broken quests / people, people, you pay a lot of money for these games, don't accept broken shit, start actually doing something about it before you drag the industry the rest of the way down the pan....because of bethesda, it's now accepted that games will be broken on release, and will be patched if the dev still meets these 3 criteria - still exists / has money / cares


hopefully someone will take them to court for this shit, and actually win, if you buy anything else that is as faulty as a bethesda game, you can get a full refund, and sometimes a token of apology....these days, we know the game is broken, and sit hoping it will get fixed.....


anyways, shame i didn't notice this til now, gonna miss a lot of downvotes from simpletons due to my lateness :(
