[QUOTE=hypno-toad;31692096]Yep, and the HL2 Source engine is just the quake engine engine with "significant modifications" Its a new engine. People need to stop misquoting and misinterpreting.[/QUOTE] I'm not misquoting - that quote is verbatim, and doesn't require context - nor misinterpreting. BethSoft's being cagey on what they mean by "significant changes" - architectural changes, for example, like dropping cells? - or are they swapping things in and out within a modular architecture? (When do we get to call it a new engine?)
[QUOTE=Hellborg 65;31692126]That was a female argonian, yeah? I wonder if the males will have any significant differences other than dicks of course.[/QUOTE] Well that female, while being an Argonian, does have an elegant and more calming look about her. I'll expect males to look more devious and vicious. Possibly more draconic than females.

I might add that either way, the Creation Engine is a huge improvement from Gamebryo from what we've seen so far.
Good that I happened to be listening to LotR music while seeing those pictures. Can't say I'm too pleased with the Wood Elf but I suspect with the name "Dicktits" they were messing around with the character creation rather then being super-serious with it. That Argonian is great, didn't someone else make another one? At least I know now why the forums have been taken offline...
I just realised how hard it will be for the nexus to try to turn the argonians sexy with their type 3 bodies.

oh man I can't fucking wait to make an argonian gentleman that pleases the ladies with every word, but deals deadly poisonous damage with his two shortswords and nimbly moves around in light armour hype level is pretty fucking high after seeing these screenshots

I really hope they pull off the Distant land detail. Because in Oblivion and fallout looked kinda horrid.

"Derived" is a term that's easy to throw around, the amount of derivation needed variable: my heavily modded Oblivion is "derived" from Oblivion's own Gamebryo, since it augments the graphics stack (OGE), overhauls AI and leveling (OOO), and significantly overhauls weather (All Natural). Valve has proven that Source significantly overhauls GoldSrc with their papers and the SDK wiki - not that they need to, nor does BethSoft except when I have to back up a performance claim - they've swapped the netcode in and out, added a physics engine ("overhauled" to the point that they keep QPhysics in for players), and, yes, replaced rendering code. BethSoft have talked about features. I'm very cautious about saying "when", considering this is BethSoft, who went and took Gamebryo for Morrowind and came back with Gamebryo for Oblivion, derived from each other, yet acknowledged to be the same in name.
[QUOTE=ZeroS;31692503]I really hope they pull off the Distant land detail.

That is just pathetic considering MGE can generate all the lods for terrain, statics and textures in about 5 seconds [editline]12th August 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=HubmaN;31692567] Valve has proven that Source significantly overhauls GoldSrc with their papers and the SDK wiki - not that they need to - they've swapped the netcode in and out, added a physics engine ("overhauled" to the point that they keep QPhysics in for players), and, yes, replaced rendering code. [/QUOTE] And what has creation changed? Or, moreover, what can you verify that it hasn't changed that gives you free reign to refer to it as gamebryo?
[QUOTE=minilandstan;31692408]I just realised how hard it will be for the nexus to try to turn the argonians sexy with their type 3 bodies.[/QUOTE] what does type 3 body mean? i don't know anything about this terminology.
[QUOTE=ZeroS;31692503]I really hope they pull off the Distant land detail. Because in Oblivion and fallout looked kinda horrid.[/QUOTE] easily modded though, so it isn't too huge a deal - I did it with Oblivion and Fallout although for some reason texture mods don't seem to be working for me right now, might have to run archive invalidation
[QUOTE=The Alert;31692603]what does type 3 body mean? i don't know anything about this terminology.[/QUOTE] It's one of the more popular nude mods among a particular set of Nexus users.
[QUOTE=hypno-toad;31692568] And what has creation changed? Or, moreover, what can you verify that it hasn't changed that gives you free reign to refer to it as gamebryo?[/QUOTE] I don't have a clue either - at least where it lets us determine the distinction between "heavily modded Gamebryo for Oblivion" and "new engine, rah rah rah". See above to see why I'm defaulting on conservative mode.
[QUOTE=minilandstan;31692408]I just realised how hard it will be for the nexus to try to turn the argonians sexy with their type 3 bodies.[/QUOTE] Not hard at all? [editline]12th August 2011[/editline] I wish I could make parties in TES games, instead of having just one character, you can have several in a group led by Dovahkiin. Ahh, maybe a mod... I swear I will one day try to do at least one mod.

See above to see why I'm defaulting on conservative mode.[/QUOTE] Well since you don't know, why dont you default to the people who made the Creation Engine; people who obviously know more than you about the given subject. Every time some guy feels he needs to refer to Creation as Gamebryo, it does nothing more than spread more rumors among people who are more casual observers of the series. Now you've got troves of people going around "hurr durr creation is gamebryo" even though they have no fucking conception of what they are talking about. So do everybody a massive favor and stop referring to it incorrectly, and save everybody the time and confusion.
a larger pic of the argonian, apparently its a female. [img]http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/comment/9/2011/08/df304b37b15b842f66612e24f47f18c5/original.jpg[/img]
Totally miss read that. :v:
[QUOTE=HubmaN;31692837]Not even an Unofficial Patch?[/QUOTE] I meant make one myself. I'm just too cautious not to mess things up in the CS.
[QUOTE=Atlascore;31692911]Holy shit, those screenshots, there's so much character customization, that orc and khajit look completely different compared to the last screenshots of them.[/QUOTE] Haha, I remember when people were complaining that there wasn't going to be a million sliders that make your character look slightly more or slightly less retarded. All the characters look very different, but they all look good.

[QUOTE=Atlascore;31693055]Really? I thought that bump on it's chest was where you store all your weapons and shit.[/QUOTE] Victoria's Secret Compartment, eh?
That Argonian's face looks like a fucking T-Rex. Seriously, I'm getting Jurassic Park flashbacks looking at her. I LOVE IT!!!

Anyone else think A Small Measure of Peace from The Last Samurai by Hans Zimmer would fit the TES universe? [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0O78AkAY6E[/media]
[QUOTE=Jurikuer;31690615]Going to pre-order my Collectors Edition. It's expensive but I think I can afford 20 bucks a week. That should pay for it :D.[/QUOTE] Just got my pre-order. I'm the first one to pre-order Skyrim: CE at this EBGames for the PS3. Though I'm not the first for the game in general. Darn, so much for bragging rights haha. [QUOTE=Rockersm;31690774]Enjoy it![/QUOTE] Oh I will!
