Saw the collectors edition box for the first time. Thing is massive for a game box.

 

[Kwixotik]

So it's one perk per level right? And you stop getting perks at level 50? So, 50 perks and destruction alone has 17 perks to take. WTF. My sneaky backstabbing destruction assassin mage is going to be hard to build.

Well, you can't be a master of all trades. If you're going to make a hybrid character, you can really only specialize fully in one or two things and just invest in the perks you absolutely need for the other skills.

 

[les papillons sexuels]

I wish there was an online character builder that I could play around with.

 

[TheExecutive]

Or you could get a job, ya goddamn hippy.

That's right! He should really sell his hemp rasta sweatshirt and his least favorite bong!

EDIT: Or should I say "water pipe" on these forums now?

 

[jambo]

"Twenty-twenty-twenty four hours to go....."

Already out in Australia

 

[ElyrionX]

Unless you're going for everything, focus on one spell type (fire/frost/electric) and save yourself the 7 points.

Yeah, for Destruction, I'm taking everything. So, 33 more perks for sneak, illusion, alteration, speech and maybe one handed. Hmmmmmm.

I'll be working in January. January isn't now.

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

So if I were to post some screens of the maxed out PC version at 1am Australian time (8 hours from now), would that be appreciated?

No one even wants this game anymore.

I will show my appreciation by sending you virtual chocolate muffins.

 

[Andiie]

Hopefully I'll get to see the game in the next 20-30 mins if my brother is quick. Can't wait.

 

[jgminto]

Wait. It's out in Australia!? Crap! I gotta get my arse to the shops!

 

[Ashodin]

This thread is gonna flooooooooooooooooood with Skyrim PC pictures. Maybe we should have another thread just specific to screenshots to save discussion?

 

[CharlesSurge]

You get a perk each level. Leveling is just significantly harder past level 50.

 

[Rabbit Lord]

Chew your face off, you damn dirty ape!




So use something else, mang. The world is your oyster.

Because thats all the world is.

 

[IoCaster]

Wow, massive thread already. I've got a lot of catching up to do. Anyway I'm pre-loaded and I had some spare Amazon rewards points floating around so I ordered the hardcover guide. I'm definitely going with a Breton mage/assassin for my first run.

Has anyone seen any info regarding the Creation Kit (mod tools) and when they'll be available?

 

[Surfheart]

Got the game yay!

Has steam ever unlocked a game early?

 

[bowery]

Prepare for this OT to dominate the first page of gaming at least until 2012, looks good.

 

[indigo-cyclops]

Sorry if I missed this, could someone explain the Aussie VPN/8 AM EST situation...

 

[Derrick01]

Prepare for this OT to dominate the first page of gaming at least until 2012, looks good.

Until it gets moved to community a month after release where it will die.

New rules :\

Probably will flood with pc problems also jkjk

 

[kokujin]

Do other controllers work on the PC other than the 360.My friend has a PS3 controller and was wondering if it would work.

 

[MirageDwarf]

New rules :\

Really hope Skyrim gets exception. Oblivion was the first game to reach 10K posts afterall.

 

[Seth C]

Really hope Skyrim gets exception. Oblivion was the first game to reach 10K posts afterall.

Was hoping Skyrim could be the first game's OT to hit 10k before it even officially released, but we would have to seriously pick up the pace.

 

[Aeana]

Really hope Skyrim gets exception. Oblivion was the first game to reach 10K posts afterall.

Dark Souls had the fastest-moving OT and it only got an extra two weeks.

 

[DangerStepp]

Yeah, absolutely. You'll have to do a but of Googling but it's possible. I've connected my DS3 to my PC Plenty of times.

Until it gets moved to community a month after release where it will die.

New rules :\

What new rules? What constitutes a thread getting moved to the community section?

 

[Rapture]

Rather proud of myself for keeping up with this thread thus far, but after tomorrow its going to start getting real fast and ill be dropping out to play Skyrim anyway.

i second the new thread for screenshots, i hate having to dig around the games OT looking for player uploaded ones, but i love seeing other peoples characters!

 

[Reuenthal]

So if I were to post some screens of the maxed out PC version at 1am Australian time (8 hours from now), would that be appreciated?

Yes.

 

[CabbageRed]

Oh well. Steam had been showing 24 hours and less all day, the counter vanished at 12am, and then reset to 24 hours.

 

[KAP151]

HNNNNNNNNNNG. It's time!

 

[Gravijah]

definitely one of the best boxarts around. so good.

DEATH TO CG RENDERS

 

[Kinan]

Yea, with motioninjoy driver. Wireless part may not always work (depends on your bluetooth adapter type), but with wired connection i never had any problems.

 

[Twinduct]
