Does anyone know how I get my old PS4 special edition to be upgraded to the PS5 super duper one? (I see it in the store for £35 mind)
Have you tried just installing it onto your PS5?

Might upgrade automatically.

I have been told I just put the disk in the PS5 and it will then give me the option to upgrade, going to try it later.

Started playing it again, looks better, but disappointed it doesn’t classify as a new game and still uses the special edition for achievements, was hoping to achievement farm with a new run through. Also, if you buy the physical version, it’s literally just a copy of special edition and a download code for the anniversary edition, which you still need to download and is now tied to your account, pure laziness on behalf of Bethesda IMO.

I now have the dreaded "black screen" bug. I've done everything suggested to fix it. But, nothing works so far.

Far Cry 6 it is then.....
After a few hours faffing about I found a load that works.

I've no idea what did the trick. confused

Black screen has returned. I've stopped playing until a patch has been released. Very frustrating.

What's the betting it's one of the included creation club mods that isn't 100% compatible with the AE.

I had the black screen bug.

It started ok with all the mods I have on release day.
Then the next day it started with the black screen, sound is playing no visual.
I turned off all the mods and it launched once ok, then back to bs.

Enabled Arthmoor's unofficial patch, as the only mod (first in load order).
It launches every time now.

What system are you on?

I'm series X. It black screens with and without mods. I've deleted and reloaded the game and the anniversary dlc. Nothing works.

Apparently there's a patch coming from Bethesda this week. Fingers crossed.

Yes, I have that patch. I think it's top of my load. I'll double check when I get the chance. thumbup

ETA: Yep, it's top of my load. Hopefully the official patch will sort it this week.

Yep. The patch is updating on my Series X. Hopefully, it will do the trick. I'll check it out tomorrow.

Just started playing again with the Anniversary Edition on Series X. Just crashes all the time. I did a full delete and reinstall but made no difference :-(

Gutted I was really looking forward to getting back into the game with the new content after a few months off.

Anyone else having same probs ?

Does any one have the special edition strategy guide they'd be willing to sell? My daughter is getting into Skyrim and I think she'd love the guide book.

Back again.

This time on PS5, bought the Special Edition then upgraded to the Anniversary Edition for £30 in total.

I have always used range/assassin sneak build with the occasional magic, but this time trying something totally different using full magic/sneak build, only using range to start the fight from distance then heading into combat using magic. Trying it on expert difficulty as well so it's not easy but I'm coping so far. Just bought a load of spells in Whiterun after doing a couple of side quests for some coin and items, this has upgraded the damage and healing my spells can do.

I bloody love this game, going to start building a house and doing some smithing soon to improve the armour I'm wearing.

I tried loading the game and my saves/mods on an xbox one (I usually use a series x). After some faffing around I got it working on my latest save.

Except, my character has no armour and my favourite weapon has disappeared. frown
