Anyone else suffering the characters faces disapearing when in buildings and the dreaded crash to desktop ?

Nope, it has to be the best behaved game ever for me!
Amazing for Bethesda, looking on the forums you are not the only one.

That's why you should search for details of what the patch does, before you choose to apply it?

I just started a new character a couple of days ago. This woman hasn't done much yet, a couple of dungeon crawls, a couple of side quests, a couple of dragons, joined the companions and is in the process of joining the Imperial Legion. I'm on my way now to a fort to kill a bunch of bandits as my initiation test for the Legion when i was attacked by a Dark Brotherhood assassin. Upon searching his corpse i find a note, signed by Astrid, saying they have been paid to kill me.

Has anyone else had a contract taken out on them? If so, have you been able to determine the reason for it. I honestly cannot think of anything i have done (yet) to piss people off enough to send the dark brotherhood after me.

Only played a wee bit so far, playing as a Redguard with awesome dreads. Not done any quests yet or even much exploring, but I have Tuesday and Wednesday off so will play the shit out of it then.

Steam applied it automatically it is deliberately aimed at stopping the mod scene for memory address issues, if you are running a non pirated copy it will effect you, thousands of peeps now have unplayable games, for me it was a simple fix of running in compatibility mode for vista with patch 2. :)

Isn't that in response to killing the hag teacher for the little boy ?

Nope, that's the quest to join the DB. You meet the kid, kill the hag, then Astrid gives you the chance to join up. I haven't even gone to Winterhold yet to meet the kid.

This was an actual assassination attempt. According to the note someone had performed the black sacrament and paid them to kill me. I cannot think of a single reason why.

Hmm, i've just thought of something. The only thing this character has done differently so far is that when i get to Whiterun some guy asks if you support the Gray-Manes or Battle-Borns. With my first dude i remained neutral, with the chick i'm playing now i declared support for one side (whichever one it was that supports teh empire). Would that be enough to make the other family put a contract out on me?

It could just be a random event though.

Weird I have done the same as you, one character hasent proffered love for any side but the one I play on pc has, will be interesting to see what happens.

I'm not sure you ever find out. I think it's just because you're the Dragonborn.

Then why didn't it happen to Marcus the Orc? There was a good 25 hours at least before he joined the brotherhood and nobody came after him, but someone's tried to kill Aurelia the Imperial after less than 10. Weird.

Maybe you've just made a dislikable character, this time.

How do you have time to play with more than one character? I've only been playing with one and feel I've got nowhere so far.

I'm pretty sure it's just a random encounter. Of the people I know who've played it most (but not all) have had it. I didn't have it, probably because I did the DB stuff very early.

And no, there's (typically for Skyrim) no story behind it.

Don't all Bethesda games have it? People trying to kill you with anonymous notes left on the bodies.

I've had the thugs with the contract attack me twice, both sent by people who I stole from but didn't catch me at the time. I assume that since I was the only other person in their shop and I was the one who put the cauldron on their head right before all their stuff went missing they just /assumed/ it was me. >:(

 

I also had the random DB assassin attack me once, right after I started fighting a dragon. :(( Didn't seem to lead anywhere, although haven't joined the DB with any character yet.

Also, I can't think of a signature, any ideas?

Kinda. Previously there's always been a story to it when that happened.
