Who would like to battle on horseback?
It seems as though the team at Bethesda has been quite busy since the release of their multi award winning game. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim's first DLC (Dawnguard) has been announced, they've introduced Kinect integration and, today, right from the horses mouth, we learn of the inclusion of mounted combat. Keep reading to find what else patch 1.6 will bring.
NEW FEATURES
Mounted Combat - Skyrim now allows you to do melee and ranged combat while riding a horse
BUG FIXES

Fixed occasional issue where followers would disappear after player pays off a bounty after committing a crime
Fixed issue where certain creatures and NPCs would fail to respawn properly
Fixed rare issue with dialogue subtitles not displaying properly
Fixed issue with water appearing blurry when loading a saved game after creating a save underwater
Fixed issue where map cursor would occasionally disappear after closing a message box with Kinect enabled (Xbox 360)
Fixed rare issue with shouts only performing the first level and not other unlocked levels with Kinect enabled (Xbox 360)
Fixed issue where the shout buttons would stop working properly if users mashed LB and RB during cooldown with Kinect enabled (Xbox 360)As of today, there's no firm release date for patch 1.6. We'll let you know as soon as we have more information. |

| Melee from horseback should have been in the original release IMO. |

| With all of the stuff they're putting into these patches for free (mounted combat, additional combat kill-cams, Kinect integration, etc), I have to think Dawnguard will be pretty badass. |
Oh, they love us American boys. |

DyingAtheist said:Bow and Arrow from Horseback = <3Totally agree with you on this one! :D
Gonna be so good just riding along then all of a sudden, you fire a random arrow then you get a kill cam because you get a headshot on a guy across the world XD |

| This may not be completely related to this, but if you have this game on Steam you can try the patch out through beta participation. Tried it for a few minutes yesterday and it works. |

So Mounted Combat was clearly in the game right from the start but was disabled until now because they couldn't get it working correctly.
That's too massive a design feature, and far too much work (especially when you consider animations), to have been added in a patch. It's something that was always meant to be in the game but is only showing up now because its only now they've got it working. |
