So...Skyrim

[Raven]

Yeah, speculation is that they left them there for modders to play with. Hopefully a few mod teams make something of them.

Well after the patch today ive started crashing like crazy, perhap every 5-10 min.

 

[Mabs]

just got the nightingale armour set. its very nice, but it looks epic

anyone found any other cool sets ?

 

[Will]

I've matched up the Nightingale Armour with the Shrouded Cowl Maskless for the sneaky-archer-about-town look.

 

[Fafnir]

sneaking around in dragonscale armor, 2 enchants on each piece. but that nightingale armor is one of the prettiest looking one in game.

But what miffs me is the wife, marries a miner, she set up shop and cooks food, but could not change her clothes, so she walks around my solitude manor in mining outfit and pickaxe. So skilled up my pickpocket and got the steal equiped items, so took her outfit and pick axe and gave her a tavern dress, she just keeps on walking around in her underwear instead...

ooh where did you get that ?

and fafnir- i dont see the problem with that ?

 

[Fafnir]

Nightingale from thieves guild quest line, get it starting quest to kill Mercer, shrouded cowl mask i think is in dark brotherhood sanctum. And when you work thru their quests you even get a jester outfit if you like.

 

[Nate]

I want to wear the execution mask

 

[Mabs]

aah ye sorry, the shrouded cowl is the DB armour set, duh !
i thought it was a seperate thing

im up to 15X backstab so do that mostly, so use full nightingale set so i look epic, and dont bother with bow

Ran from whiterun to riften. Bugger me, quite daunted by all the stuff on the way that I just left until later. I did a few dungeons, a dragon etc, but probably about 1/20th or what I actually saw whilst running. erk.

 

[Nate]

I want to find some Sheogorath quests, enjoyed the expansion for oblivion Shivering Isles. WAS FUCKING MENTAL

I've found the Sheogorath quest, it's was really really odd. The puzzles were annoying but his conversations were entertaining crazy.

you are aware you can pay the man+cart at the "X Stables" to take you to any major town even if you havent found it yet ?
i normally do that to get fast travel points available early on

on a side note; i just reforged mehrune dagons razor.. and its really shit

3rd time for me, first time I played through the main story without touching side quests because quite simply I wanted to know what the story was, 2nd time I had a shield tank and did shit loads of sidequests/never touched the main story and now I have nfi what i'll do.

 

[Everz]

I'm pre-nerdgazisming that I will finally be able to play this in two days time !

ah nice, new pc?

 

[Fafnir]

Hmmmm wierd, got quest to go to bonechill dungeon and kill a mob, i get there, came insta crash on loading the dungeon, i run the game again and hit continue, game freezes, ctrl-alt-del only thing that gets me to desktop get that skyrim has stopped working, i end it, start it up again, this time i hit load, and the top 5 save just shows pics that look like war of the ants like you get on the tellie when there is nothing on. None of the saves worked, only save that works was one that will loose me about 30 hours.

 

[Mabs]

look in your documents folder for saves
i had a quicksave and quicksave.bak. deleted the fucked QS and removed the .bak from the spare.

other suggestion, that didnt work for me: start a new game, wait till you get control after the cart ride, then open menu -> load

What worked was download the 4GB exe from Nexus, run that continue, save, and load after that the other saves workes aswell for some fucked up reason.

Got myself some light armor and dualwield 1h's as a Breton. Took the resist magic from alteration line also. Practically untouchable by mages, most enemies are dead after doing the dw power attack. Only enemies that are a bother are heavy armor 2h guys -- although the ice shout or a paralysis poison can stop them for enough time for my dw to take care of them. Maybe I should set the difficulty up

Most fun so far: around lvl 5 I went to the lighthouse with chaurus in the basement. At the end it was crawling with beasies and was absolutely impossible to kill them all. Luckily I had a scroll of mass frenzy or whatever and made them all kill eachother xD

A little disappointed by the controls and the fact you cant hotkey dualwield weapons, and the interface is made for console -- including the lack of configurable graphics options. Various bugs ive encountered is the win xp bug that makes the game stutter every 5 secs for some time when your outside, fixed by runnin in compatability mode.. until steam started to interfere and say 'nono' when I wanted to run the game like that so I had to download a crack for a bought game... imagine that.

Also... I doubt dragons are easier to kill than trolls and giants "irl"

Got a 'cooler' for the laptop so it'll be able to handle it without overheating issues .

ah ok, just make sure you get the 4gb patch for Skyrim it helps alot in populated areas, the game is capped to 2gb ram useage otherwise.

Ahh right, where can I download it?

 

[pikeh]

the link toht posted, google skyrim nexus. It will be your only stop for all skyrim mods in the future, as it was for fallout, oblivion, nwn etc.

 

[Nate]

Read an article that the patch recently removed the ability to use 4gb.
