Don't install the game. The graphics are so much better when not installed.

Heres why:

Hope they get this fixed soon

Dear lord, not again.

"We've seen a few reports of certain textures temporarily scaling down on the Xbox 360, and not scaling back up."

Typical Bethesda double-speak. "...a few reports..." probably means several thousand. Remember when they explained Oblivion's ABomb Bug affected "isolated cases" or something similar, while in reality it applied to every copy of every disc for PCs and both applicable consoles. A 100% game-ending failure they never bothered to fix.

Also, how can the issue be "temporary" when it's qualified as "not scaling back up" ?

The bigger (unspoken) issue here, at least for me, is how could the pre-release testing and polishing have been so thin and skimpy as to allow something so basic to get through?

I hope Bethesda steps up to bat in good faith and starts releasing effective patches (band-aids).

Gotta hit that hyped 11.11.11 release date.

Eh, I'd rather have worse graphics than worse immersion from a noisy Xbox.
This honestly bothers me little, particularly since I've encountered no game-breaking or even quest-breaking bugs.

I played quite a few hours with the game installed before i read this thread, now i un-installed the game but am noticing nothing different. If there is a difference, it's minor, i think i might just re-install and save my disc-drive some wear and tear, put up with a few inferior textures until a patch inevitably drops.

i played for about an hour from disc, it froze up on me once and there was a bit of judder.. so i installed it, and i havent noticed any difference to the looks, tho i hadn't had much game time

but if the patch does improve things then i will have an even bigger grin on my face when i play this game
