Why does time have to slow down so much[/QUOTE]
No kidding. I tried to take a nap earlier today, but only slept for a little bit. I've been up for so long waiting for this game to unlock PATIENTLY.
Dammit, is there a way to launch it without reactivating the VPN so the preload button goes away? I wanna get the achievements and stuff but the vpn is full.
I find it sad that I fully understood how everything works and how to play Morrowind and Oblivion when I was 12 in minutes but Skyrim makes hardly any sense to me at all as if the true nature of the game is hidden underneath a glittery constellation of UI stars and broken controls

You can still get achievements in offline mode. I have been anyway.
Has anyone else tried running GPU-Z or some other monitoring program on the background? I'd be interested to hear what kind of GPU loads people are getting. For me it's only about 30-50%, which would explain why this game runs like crap sometimes.

Don't watch if you're not strong enough to not abuse game mechanics

I'll take some more during the day, but the lighting was so pretty here.

Just assassinated the asshole who ran that orphanage, nearly had a heart attack when I slept and [sp]then woke up in a shack in the middle of nowhere with a Dark Brotherhood assassin looking at me. [/sp]
I have an awesome friend.

GTX 460 overclocked: 60-90% GPU Load
QX9650 3.33GHz: 20% CPU Load
Can you still marry people? :q:

Once you've activated the game and launched it for the first time, you can turn off your VPN and launch the game using the TESV.exe in your Skyrim folder.
Just add TESV.exe to your non-Steam games list and launch with the interface, that's how I did it :)

So the objects actually break their line of sight? Interesting.

holy shit that's fucking awesome
Skyrim has been redeemed in my eyes
[QUOTE=DoctorSalt;33225606]Anyone else get it from intkeys?[/QUOTE]
Well, since
[quote]Dear Client
As you probably have heard already the Russian Version of Skyrim is Region
blocked and can only be played in Russia.
Given this situation we will refund everyone who ordered Sykrim from us 100%
of his money, please understand that this will take a little time since we
are talking about many orders, we hope to be finished with everything within
24 maximum 48 hours from now.
We are working on getting a EU Version and will obviously let everyone know
as soon as we have details about it.
We apologize for the inconvenience caused and hope to still have you back as
a customer in the future.

I don't think so.

That's what I mean. I'm looking for alternatives.
[QUOTE=K1ngo64;33225835]GTX 460 overclocked: 60-90% GPU Load[/QUOTE]
Oddly, I was getting a 90-98% load with my GTX460 not overclocked. When I overclocked it though, I got the same load as you.
Core - 700 -> 850mhz
Shader - 1400 -> 1700mhz
Memory - 1800 -> 2050mhz
Oddly enough despite that odd discrepancy, it did run smoother with my card overclocked.
So are there any major differences in graphics between consoles and PC? I'm getting it for the Xbox since my PC will probably not run it.

Just shouted for the first time. I'm now a fucking Dragonborn.

Ugh
Paid for release day delivery, and Amazon still has my Skyrim copy unshipped, status is "Shipping Soon"...
It's the 11th in 2 hours. And its said that ALL day. I seriously doubt they'll somehow get it from Kentucky to my house in 12 hours or so (considering when they have it out for delivery it always takes 6-8 hours for the UPS guy to actually get to my house).
