Wichtig: Sollte es bei den PS3-Anwendern zu Abstürzen kommen, falls man das Wasser betritt, so soll man laut Bethesda Softworks die "Game Data"-Datei löschen. Dieser Schritt soll so funktionieren:
[quote]We've seen reports of users having issues with the game freezing up when entering water. If you're having this issue, head to the PlayStation XMB menu, go to Game>Game Data Utility>select Skyrim. From there, press Triangle to receive the option to delete the game data. Delete the game data (note: game data is not the same as your game saves.)
Once you restart Skyrim, you'll need to wait for the game to reinstall. [/quote]
