elder scrolls oblivion (PS3)[views:39513][posts:258]______________________________________ [Jul 23,2007 9:31am - the_reverend ""] I never slept in a bed before. I would just sleep on the ground and in the woods. no wonder I got pubilc lice. |
| _______________________________________ [Jul 25,2007 12:29am - the_reverend ""] all the monsters have been upgraded since I went up levels.. I need better armor and weapons. I'm still using the legion heavy armor. |
| _______________________________ [Jul 25,2007 1:39am - boine ""] ya there will be better drops now |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 25,2007 1:51am - the_reverend ""] omg.. I've been fighting one battle mage for over an hour... |
| _______________________________ [Jul 25,2007 1:54am - boine ""] i think the best heavy armor in the game is the daedric stuff but enchanting gear is key the sigil stones are great for it |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 25,2007 2:01am - the_reverend ""] I finally had to run away from the battlemage. he just kept healing. goingt o get some arrows and potions and go back. |
| _____________________________ [Jul 25,2007 4:04am - Dar ""] I installed this again partially cause this thread got me excited about it have any of you guys who are playing the PC version experimented with mods much? I wasn't crazy about the game originally, but now with a bunch of the big overhauls installed it is MUCH more exciting for me |
| ______________________________________________ [Jul 25,2007 6:44pm - ArrowHead likes Pie ""] To be honest, I have yet to really find any. Where's some good sites to find mods? |
| _____________________________ [Jul 27,2007 5:30am - Dar ""] The Elder Scrolls Source and Planet Elder Scrolls host them all. As far as finding guides to good ones and stuff like that, I don't know...I found this website http://devnull.devakm.googlepages.com/ which has a lot of information. I jumped right in and got the FCOM: Convergence thing to work, took a little tinkering and I've encountered a few minor issues but nothing big. It's pretty awesome, makes the game a lot more challenging and immersive IMO. You're level 2 and walking around outside and all of a sudden a hill giant pops out and you spend the next 30 minutes trying to lose the fucker cuz he'll cream you in 1 shot, reminds me of the panic I experienced playing Daggerfall when I was like 9 years old :P |
| ______________________________________________ [Jul 27,2007 9:05pm - ArrowHead likes Pie ""] Problem is, the plain old vanilla game is so full of fucking bugs and crashes as it is. I'm afraid it might get worse if I install any mods. Speaking of crashes, if you're playing the PC version have you had any problems with the game crashing randomly? It usually happens to me when I'm going through a door, or when I finish talking to someone. I've done tons of internet searches, and found no real solution. Just ways to make it a little less frequent. |
| ______________________________ [Jul 27,2007 11:57pm - Dar ""] Yeah, I have problems with it crashing sometimes. The mods haven't made it worse--the only errors are sometimes I pick up an item that doesn't display the graphic properly, but I just ditch it and it's ok. I crash whenever I zone into an area sometimes. I grew up on Elder Scrolls, though, and it's always been that way. Half the challenge in Daggerfall came because if you forgot to save for 30 minutes, the game could just crash any moment. It's kind of just become part of the experience for me, and I habitually mash quicksave every 5 minutes and remember to make a new save slot every day or two cuz they often get corrupted. I don't think there is much else you can do. If you're running the latest official patch, there is an "unofficial patch" that modders released to help with stability--if you go to the sites I mentioned I'm sure you can find it. That may help. As much as I love Bethesda and their games, I really hope they manage to make Fallout 3 a little more stable so that it has a broader appeal and gets them fat sacks of cash. IMO, if they can make it stable...it will be absolutely incredible |
| _______________________________________________ [Jul 27,2007 11:59pm - ArrowHead likes Pie ""] Thank you so much man. After I finish watching transformers I'm gonna go find that patch. |
| _______________________________________ [Jul 28,2007 12:22am - the_reverend ""] there is a elder scrolls wiki out there that is awesome. my friend (a warcraft addict) played this and showed me fighting in the third person view. looks much better. I've been using 1st person the whole time. he also showed me a bunch of things like hotkeys that were WOW-esque. it will make the game so much easier. |
| ________________________________ [Jul 28,2007 12:32am - boine ""] really i thought the 3rd person view was terrible looking for combat but great for the sweet jumps and you guys find the Unicorn yet |
| _______________________________________ [Jul 28,2007 12:34am - the_reverend ""] Unicorn eh... not yet. with fp, I get lost while fighting. |
| ________________________________ [Jul 28,2007 12:36am - boine ""] i just like the block feature in FP mode works well and ya i got lost all the time by the end of the game it don't matter you can get naked and punch things to death be fine. Find the unicorn there is only one and you can ride it if you don't have a weapon drawn |
| _______________________________________________ [Jul 28,2007 12:51am - ArrowHead likes Pie ""] I like wow style controls/views, like in guild wars, but I find it pretty useless in this game. The control are definitely set up around first person. Plus, my character looks terrible. Imagine the older brother from "everyone loves raymond" dressed in all black ninja gear. |
| __________________________________ [Jul 28,2007 6:23pm - Dar nli ""] Yeah, third persons kinda cool for sneaking around but that's it for me. The hotkeys are essential though! My character looks awful too. I thought "I'll make a female dark elf vampire mage assassin, that'll be cool right?" little did I know that becoming a vampire immediately makes you look like a bloated grandmother |
| _______________________________ [Jul 28,2007 8:12pm - boine ""] being a vampire is great just feeding on hobos |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 28,2007 11:42pm - xanonymousx ""] Rev are you still playing on PS3? |
| _______________________________________ [Jul 29,2007 12:18am - the_reverend ""] WOW... IT JUST FROZE ON ME! yes, ps3. I just played for a while and got into the dark brotherhood. |
| ________________________________ [Jul 29,2007 12:44am - boine ""] it freezes all the time for xbox |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 29,2007 1:14am - the_reverend ""] I also just killed all the slaughter fsh |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 29,2007 1:38am - the_reverend ""] I started killig off gaurds when they chase me.. I hope that's ok. |
| _______________________________ [Jul 29,2007 3:00am - boine ""] ya just more bounty on head just slaughter them |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 29,2007 3:14am - the_reverend ""] 5K.. paid 1/2 seems like if you leave a fort un-cleared out, in a few days it's full again. |
| _______________________________ [Jul 29,2007 3:28am - boine ""] ya everything respawns in the game have you tried being a vampire yet? |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 29,2007 3:30am - the_reverend ""] nope, just met my first one. |
| _______________________________ [Jul 29,2007 3:48am - boine ""] ya one in dark botherhood offers it to you at one point but most are just scum bags in caves the guy who runs skingrad is one too i think |
| _______________________________ [Jul 29,2007 4:09am - boine ""] find Sheogorath's Shrine and do his quest its one the best in the game |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 3,2007 2:41am - the_reverend ""] I just ran around getting my ass kicked all over the place, forgetting where I was or what I was doing. |
| _______________________________________ [Sep 3,2007 11:45am - thuringwethil ""] happens to me A LOT! |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 29,2007 1:16am - the_reverend ""] starting this up again. I've got to "beat" is so I can get ninja gaiden or something |
| _______________________________ [Sep 29,2007 3:33am - boine ""] 30 more hours next month http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFI9IoXyGxc |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 29,2007 9:34am - the_reverend ""] I beat off a bunch of quests |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 29,2007 9:53am - sever nli ""] I got this for the xbox and got hooked. it freezes all the time though. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 21,2007 1:09am - the_reverend ""] WTF! I'm doing the spies sub-mission while waiting for the daedric commentaries mission to continue. I just came across 2 imperial guards that were hunting and then they started and arrow fight until one of them was dead. I just sat there and watched it. wow. |
| _______________________________ [Oct 21,2007 1:20am - boine ""] the game of the year edition just came out its got both the expansions an awesome island with about 30 more hours |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 21,2007 1:24am - the_reverend ""] oh my god.. I have $50K when I went to the daedric mission... I went to buy something and I had NOTHING. fuck! |

| _______________________________________ [Oct 21,2007 12:00pm - the_reverend ""] I'm going to figure out what the "main" quests are and beat them. then I can go back and beat all these little shit quests afterwards |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 21,2007 12:38pm - xanonymousx ""] i guess the game of the year edition was just released. |
| ________________________________ [Oct 21,2007 12:51pm - boine ""] do all the shrine quest you get the best items from those |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 21,2007 1:46pm - the_reverend ""] I just need to get past this game so I can buy another one. |
| _______________________________ [Oct 21,2007 3:48pm - boine ""] haha well your fucked you can easily put in 200 hours in this and still find things to do. the new download gives you a lady who does taxidermy for you |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 21,2007 4:20pm - the_reverend ""] you can't dl anything for the ps3, right? |
