The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - PREORDER :)

[Ace Modder]

After starting a playthrough of Morrowind with the Overhaul mod I've decided not to purchase this until all reviews are in. I think it will turn out to be ok, I just don't want to be dissapointed after coming from Morrowind

I found morrowind far better than Oblivion.

 

[Pighardia]

Sorry, i haven't checked any news on Skyrim recently, will there be any pre-order bonuses for this game?
Probably wouldn't affect where i bought it from, but would be nice to know

btw, also playing through Morrowind with the Overhaul and REALLY looking forward to this, providing i finish Morrowind in time.

cant wait for this. really need to upgrade my comp before this comes out, would not do it justice to play it on my machine as it stands

 

[Energize]

The graphics are fairly average when you look at the actual size screenshots, I think upgrading for it is a little excessive...

Do you get the preorder bonus cloth map with this?

- You are what you play. Choose from hundreds of weapons, spells, and abilities. The new character system allows you to play any way you want and define yourself through your actions.

that means oblivions levelling system doesn't it?

Instead of skill points?

 

[Evilsod]

Honestly I'm not sure anyone knows what the levelling system actually is. Given that there are no major skills I can only hope they got the balance right. Anyone whose ever gone with the 'Mage' Major skill set and used only those knows just how ridiculous things can get when you hit lvl15 after a few hours and get your ass handed to you.

I'm pretty sure I read it was a modified fallout 3 style levelling system but i could be wrong. I think I will wait for the collectors edition though, the oblivion one was good.

 

[Cliste]

Bring it on!!!

I don't even need to play the game to know thats wrong.

FO3 works on the concept of you levelling up and applying points after gaining exp.

All I know about this one is every skill level up counts towards your progress. Higher levelled skills count more. Whether that paces the game properly is anyone's guess. I don't exactly trust them based on what they've done so far.

will i need 6990 xfired to play this?

 

[agnes]

If there is a limited edition one, we will be getting that for sure Have you heard any news on this? Not heard anything on a LE

Nor have I, can't wait either way

What are your promises on delivering for release?

Will pre orders be shipped the day before or the day of release.

Thanks!

Reason why I've bought my PC... If you preorder off overclockers does it take your money out straight away or when it's dispatched?

 

[Frenzy]

If you are on about the collectors edition,

It's looking too expensive RRP is around £130, you get nice stuff with it but still think its too steep!

UPDATE: Bethesda has announced that the Collector's Edition of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is exclusive to Game and Gamestation in the UK.

Priced at a wallet-busting £129.99, the set includes the following swag on top of the rabidly-anticipated RPG sequel itself:

Modeled from actual in-game 3D digital files, it showcases Alduin, the World Eater. He stands perched atop one the game's many dragon walls that teach the player the lethal language of dragons.

'The Art of Skyrim' Official Art Book - Featuring over 200 pages of striking, full-color illustrations, sketches and models, this stunning 9 3/8" x 12 1/8" coffee table book showcases the characters, creatures, environments, and weaponry of Skyrim.

Wow, i was seriously thinking of going for the limited edition, but not at that price(or aywhere near it)

I went on Bethesda site and there is a link to pre-order the limited edition, but it just directs you to retailers with the standard edition, and no word on price.

Edit- I would really like to get that but i just can't justify £130 for a game, not even Skyrim!

 

[Kosmiche]

There should be a slightly special edition, without the dragon but with everything else.

For about £50. I don't want a tacky dragon piece of tat.

Yeah,

If they done a version with just the map, I would be more than happy to pay a little extra, but at this price its just way too dear.
