SoM on PS3, worse than a scam.

I bought the Pre Sale of the game, and it really disappointed me, the graphics are awful, the fps sometimes gets very low, the popping in game is really annoying and it has to load a lot (about 7 or 8 seconds) almost for everything. The thing that most angers me is that it is an excellent game apart from the things mentioned above, and it is unacceptable to launch a game with so many flaws, I hope that developers take out patches to improve it, I do not want to miss the chance to play this great game as it deserves.

Do you think that they will launch some patches to improve it?

Here a caption of the game on ps3:

Sorry for my english.

Everyone, the best thing you can do is send an email the Behavior Interactive and Monolith asking for a mega patch to at least TRY to fix some of the issues. I'm okay with the dumbed down Nemesis system, seeing as how intensive on the hardware that is, but PS2 graphics + audio issues + shit animation + massive bugs. THIS IS NOT THE BEST YOU CAN DO. This is not even mediocre. ITS SHIT.

Thanks for the direction. I will email them.

And I agree with your comments exactly. I was not expecting PS4 standards on my PS3 but I was expecting PS3 standards.

This version of the game should have been priced originally at $39.99. They knew they were cutting content. Other companies were nice enough to release last-gen games at a reduced price (Alien: Isolation, The Evil Within). They should have handled this game as a budget game in the beginning, scrapping the Nemesis system for a more linear, yet playable experience for those who mainly wanted to enjoy the story. The only thing short of a full refund that I could see correcting this for WB would be a two-year voucher for a free copy or download of either current-gen version. It's either that or pay up!

Completely agree with you and the TEW was 56 buks for plus, they should originally put the game at 56-55 for the PS3 and 50-52 for plus members...

Monolith NEEDS to do something ASAP.

This is crap crap crap. cant even engage any warchief while there are either bodyguards or 5 or more orcs present because the game literally shuts down!!! the sound stutters and the framerate dips to about 5fps...NO JOKE!!! this was an easy cash grab and i cant believe it was released. they are telling everyone on metacritic that the day 1 patch resolved alot of issues. wtf did it resolve exactly because i would have hated to play it before the patch. i cant even trade it in because it was bought digitally. 2 weeks and no patches??? it's not ever going to get fixed is it???

Just curious. To those of you having the big time lag, freezing, shutdown issues.....do you have the 1.01 update installed? I'm only asking as I've only experienced the weird audio and some of the texture issues. I haven't had one freezing or major slowdown issue (I've been engaged with close to 20 ememies at once). I'm not going to say it didn't slowdown a little...but, nothing game stopping. The developers still have some major work to do to patch this game up to be acceptable. But, I was curious if some of you were working prior to the 1.01 update.

Patch came out and i installed it on the PS3. What a waste of 1016 MB! There was no improvent for the graphics or the speech. Can see layer by layer of texture loading while running around the land. What a total mess the game is. Even the elder scrolls:skyrim is so much better than this shit. I'll be taking the game back to the shop that's for sure

This is one of the very few, true next gen titles, and you bought it for 7th gen? Yes, it was a dick move for publisher to push 7th gen, but as a gamer you should know it would be severely downgraded.
