1.7 - patched dlc?

So looking at the patch notes for 1.7, they have fixes for Dawnguard in there, so does that mean that they finally figured out how to patch dlc for the 360? or is this just to fix bugs for when pc and ps3 get the dlc

honestly I thought it was funny that people thought patching dlc was completely out of the question. It really isn't that hard.

In the patch notes the Dawnguard related fixes have an (XBOX 360) tag beside them so I think it's safe to say that they are able to patch DLC. I've seen A TON of users getting [&@%!] off on these forums because everyone kept talking about DLC patches that "Weren't possible". Well it looks like they are, or the people at Bethesda are freaking magicians.

Considering that Bethesda literally had to relrealse the Pitt dlc for Fallout 3 because it wasn't possible to patch it, and the devs of Fallout New Vegas also claimed patching DLC was impossible, it actually was very hard.

Here.
"Using vampiric grip and swimming no longer prevents swimming animation from playing afterwards."

Apparently, even if it is difficult, it's possible.

Are they really gonna release a patch 1.7 for XBox when PS3 dosen't even have patch 1.6. I've been waiting for over a month for stupid mounted combat......
That is all.

Don't worry, patch 1.7 will soon be released for PS3 and it contains patch 1.6 as well.

Hope I can marry Serana now. I'd kick Ysolda out for her, or maybe I wouldn't have to hehe.

I hope it fixes that bug where the vamps stop giving quests, or give quests they've already given and are impossible to complete without failing. That bug is really old and has impeded my further progress with side quests for over a month.

I hope they patch the Aetherium Wars glitch where it sometimes doesn't start the quest. My main vampire character can't start that quest :(

Over a month since Dawnguard was released for Xbox and PS3 still hasn't got it. Can I at least get a release date! :(

^^ I know, right? A date would be rather nice. Then I could have it to look forward to instead of things being up in the air like currently.
