Surprised there wasn't already a thread about this game. The joy i felt after i head that there would be a new elder scrolls game possibly still one of the best rpg's of all time elder scrolls oblivion was one of the stand out games on the xbox 360, and now there is a new one coming out Elder Scrolls V : Skyrim this is easily one of the most anticipated games of 2011 and the fact that its release date 11.11.11 makes it even more epic, i can honestly say that months of my life are gonna be lost to this game and november truly cannot come soon enough

What are your thoughts and opinions of this game?

An update that might turn a LOT of people off:

Games For Windows Live

That is all

Ewwwww.... REALLLYY!!!!???/

/cry

GFWL is such an unnecessary thing, it doesn't add anything whatsoever to the game and just pisses you off having to sign in to it all the flipping time.

And update it 80 times before being able to play. And having to restart each time.

Playing GTA IV on the PC the first time was the most annoying thing in the world; I don't understand why I can't just download ONE update and have it done to the latest version.

Hmm, interestingly enough I'm having a hard time finding the link that I read that info in... So take it with a grain of salt. I figure by Sept it'll be set in stone (GFWL/Steam/none)

ALL THE FLIPPING TIME

Was excited for this at first, but that's dropped off over time. IMO Oblivion wasn't that great, nothing on TES3: Morrowind to me. Will buy it regardless though, hopefully without the need to sign in all the time and download a million updates to play.

For some reason I pre-ordered this. Not really into the dragons etc. anymore but I really like RPG's, especially Fallout.

Now all I got to do is find the time to play this brah's as the walkthrough I get with it is 650 pages long. I'll just lock myself in my room for 300 hours, brb getting life.

Yep, I pre-ordered it a couple of weeks ago. Loved Oblivion and Syrim is looking better.

Mrs will be a bit upset that the tv and ps3 will be commandeered for a 1 player game but her games are just gonna have to wait... for a looong time

Just gotta find extra time to get into it unsure.gif

So who's playing this?

I'm currently rocking a Night Elf Destruction Mage. I'm enjoying it, but I can't play it for too long. Last night I played it for an hour or two then switched back to BF3 as its still addictive as all hell.

i was one of many lucky ones who had crashing problems for the pc, which is now sorted, oddly, by changing some sound setting on my computer. what a game though, i cant imagine how much work has gone into this game. i swear theres a whole department for making the stories in the books.

and is it me or do giants have a decent swinging arm? i go flying literally into the clouds when i get wacked by them, lol.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
