Skyrim Beta in steam ????

[sniperkiller266]

Go onto ( on the bar up the top) View, settings, account, when you are on account click on Change and choose Skyrim Beta.

I haven't see anything diffident yet.

I will keep posted.

I think its about the steam workshop

Last time they did this, it was for a beta run of the 1.4 patch. I take it you've opted into the beta? What version does your Skyrim think it's at now? (Latest official should be 1.4.21.04.)

If it's not another beta patch for the game, it's probably something to do with the CK.

I'm not seeing any mention of a new beta (for either the game itself or the CK) on the official Bethsoft forums, but I'll keep an eye out.

Yea, why should they pay to QA patches when they can call them 'beta patches' and have us do the work for free?

Heck, the Next CoD game will probably charge users $2 for each patch.

I think the trouble is that Bethesda does do QA...it's just not very good. Or of any use at all in some cases.

I suppose you can pin the blame on us (and maybe Bethesda) being spoiled by some damn good modders willing to do things like the Morrowind Code Patch, but eh. In this case (meaning the 1.4 beta), I'm okay with them releasing a patch out to those select few who opt into the beta, so they can have a crack at it and point out the glaring issues.

Better that than just dumping their entire audience with a patch that has who knows what wrong with it. Seriously, does nobody remember "patch" 1.2 and the backwards flying dragons?

They added plugins load order in launcher. Finally.
