Quote by BIGP 6:


just picked it up & its da shit.........just a heads up installing the game brings the load time way down



also brings the res way down. im not installing mine. i'd rather see the beauty of Skyrim over a few secs off a load time anyday.

According to x360a installing the game actually makes it look better...think I'll take their word on it :p

"In order to see for ourselves and to help you decide whether you should install it when you get your hands on it tomorrow, we decided to snap screenshots from both the installed and non-installed versions of the title. Creating saves and then loading, snapping a shot as soon as the game loaded, from our experience, there really isn’t much of a difference. Now, obviously, this is our experience with the title, using an Xbox 360 Elite to play the game and is not indicative of everyone’s experience, but for most people, they should see what we saw. It's worth noting that the comparisons and complaints appear to have appeared pre-patch as well.

In short, install the shit out of it as soon as you get it. Take a look for yourselves below and make up your own mind. If you want to see the proper 1280 x 720 captures, click the images; we suggest clicking them and flicking back and forth between the windows/tabs if you really want to compare them."

Yeah, I was running around for a couple hours last night with a damn arrow sticking out of the back of my dude's neck. :laugh: Tried potions and sleep saving it but the arrow was still there. I ended up calling it a night and saving it shortly after that so I'll see if the arrow's still there when I load my game back up later.

Yeah people have been complaining about dragons flying around not attacking. I was told that you get a spell or shout that pisses them off and grounds them into melee combat. Which is good for me since i'm pure melee with the werewolf ability that dishes out major damage. Anyone tried sprinting as a werewolf yet? You go 2x faster then even shadowmare.

My wife is a werewolf too but also happens to be a expert archer. Also "Cisero" is a BEAST. You can use him after the Dark Brotherhood quests and he is by far one of the best followers ive seen so far.

ALSO you can buy a wardog at the Markesh stables. Dogs don't count as a follower so you can bring them along with a person. If you add summons (Which may include a Ghost Assassin or Dragon) and Shadowmare (The only horse that fights for you) you will have a nice little army. Just fyi.
