[QUOTE=Mattk50;28343815]i thought we had already confirmed that the dark messiah devs WERE NOT working on skyrim. if you could source me on this new development it would be nice.[/QUOTE] [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1036864-Elder-Scrolls-V-Skyrim?p=27495992#post27495992[/url] Not confirmed, but very possible.

[QUOTE=Mattk50;28341131][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cV-P-PsxQXY[/media] these guys are going to buy skyrim, and go on a rampage killing everyone without a beard. it will be glorious[/QUOTE] I hope he knew those guys. I mean come on.

[QUOTE=Muntu;28340579]I can't wait to see the AI in action. I have a feeling we're gonna end up with tons of hilarious situations, like a little girl following you in to skeleton-infested super-deadly caves to return a wooden spoon you dropped.[/QUOTE] silly. everyone knows children don't exsist

[QUOTE=Dutchlike;28343954]Wow, I have to say they're fucking assholes and they should be ashamed of themselves. [editline]28th February 2011[/editline] Also how is acting like an asshole promoting beards?[/QUOTE] No, you sir, are the asshole. Just because you lack a beard, Fuck'ead!

[QUOTE=ryfry99;28344208]silly. everyone knows children don't exsist[/QUOTE] no cp mods? :geno:

I wonder if anything similar to the multiplayer mods created for previous elder scrolls games can be recreated on the new engine, they were incredibly buggy and basic but still pretty cool considering what it achieved from a solely single player game. :smile:

nexus won't be happy about it

I only have two friends who would be interested in this and only one of them can provide the second computer to run it, so we'll take turns with two on Skyrim and one playing Guitar Hero or out buying more booze.

[QUOTE=DiscoInferno;28328704]Would you prefer her in a dominatrix ensemble or vanilla armour? Also, I hope telekenisis can be used on NPCs, I want to magically pick somene up and put them on the roof of a building while I'm hinding in the shadows giggling.[/QUOTE] both of them

[sp] there will be no multiplayer [/sp]

Coop in Skyrim would be awesome though.

it's not going to happen. We're better off waiting for Elder Scrolls 6 and telling them we want co-op from the get go. They could do it a lot better from the ground up then as a tack on. [editline]28th February 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Jack Trades;28330364]Bethesda bought Arkane Studios, they're making combat for Skyrim, so go figure.[/QUOTE] This is also the best news i've heard about the game flat out.

They could do it a lot better from the ground up then as a tack on.[/QUOTE] exactly, I'm not saying it's not cool to play co-op, it's just too late for them to whip up Co-Op in the game.

Bethesda said in a magazine interview that they will never do any kind of multiplayer mode for an Elder Scrolls game.

There may only be one dragonborn but then when you get drunk enough there's two of [i]everything[/i] and i dunno bout other countries/social circles but here booze is at the heart of all good LAN experiences Plus, as said, it doesn't have to tie into the storyline at all. There's no rule stating that ordinary people can't kill dragons (or if there is fuck that rule, we can all grow beards therefore we can all slay dragons) but it would still be fucking hard for normal people. So make co-op mode players are not the dragonborn and dragons fuck your shit (unless tackled in a group because [i]you're not the dragonborn[/i]) The main issue I really have with the lack of multiplayer is that it's this vast world with book after book of lore. Not everyone in it is going to be special, and some of us like not being special in some predefined way but still doing extraordinary things like repeatedly killing our horses to store items in their corpses or jamming our foot into a dead body's chest to send ourselves flying into the sky. The Elder Scrolls world is more than big enough to support multiplayer, even an MMO; and I respect Bethesda immensely for not turning it into one because of the huge stories that are behind it. A persistent world would ruin that, but small-scale co-op multiplayer would be awesome. In fact, if Skyrim had 4-8 player co-op gameplay, it'd almost be the game I've been ranting out ideas about for god-knows-how-long (several years). If it had 40 player multiplayer and epic scale dragons that would take all 40 players to take down much like a WoW raid boss, it'd be the last two months' iterations of that theoretical game. (If Alduin wakes up and turns out to be an entire mountain in the middle of Skyrim, which then stands, snow and trees and small towns falling from its sides, rubble and dust staining the sky for kilometers, then not only will I be smearing my own feces on my bedroom walls after being driven mad by glee, I will also be accusing Bethesda of stealing my idea) Imagine, if you will, that you finish the game once, [b]banishing[/b] Alduin once more and unlocking co-op. In co-op you play your own great-grandchildren dealing with the threat of Alduin once more as your forefather did before you, but pumped up from being foiled again (ie, game is harder from more players). It's a longshot lore-wise (in the Elder Scrolls timescale it'd be more like your own great-great-great-grandchildren one of whom is inexplicably an Argonian despite being born to two Nords (!))

Grow beard to 200% size. Beard splits up, becomes second Dovakhiin. Co-Op fuck yeah.

Thus explaining the 345089 playable characters in Multiplayer, and the fact that they are of different races. It's not far-fetched, since a lot of women (and possibly some guys, I mean: vikings. Alcohol. Ancestral need for mating. More alcohol.) would offer themselves to the brave dragon slayer, and said hero would use his manly power of manliness to satisfy them all.

He has 2 beards. One on his chin, and on behind his dick. And in the second one, more dicks grow.

Never played an Elder Scrolls game, but I watched the trailer and it looks fun. I played through Dark Messiah's singleplayer, and Fallout 3/New Vegas, and loved all of them, would I like this? (I only included Dark Messiah in that because it seems to be the same type of game, except free-roam like Fallout) [editline]28th February 2011[/editline] What the hell is up with this game and the references to beards
