[WIPz] Mod Speculation thread.

[Johnn123]

I'll play through the game first, always a must , Then when possible I'll port over The Arsenal

oh good your saving me the trouble

same with me, ill be porting over my Bezier Sword and 300 Weapon Pack, just because i can

Then on to yelling in frustration at learning the new CS

[AndalayBay]

I'm hoping the new engine means they'll spare me the hassle of having to open their cities up.

Ah comeon, you had so much fun the last time

[InsanitySorrow]

oh good your saving me the trouble :P

I see you had that in mind before me

[Johnn123]

I see you had that in mind before me

oh and another thing i forgot, if its finally finished by then, getting my Dragon Slayer Sword and Dagger in Skyrim

Yes, Yes I did

[Vouivre]

I plan on three+ things I plan on delving into.

1. What ruins there are to play with- houses fanes what have you would be one.

2. dimensional home like memoria to see what I can do there.

3. Maybe if it needs it(and it might) try my hand at beautifying the landscape and feel more natural.

4. Cabin home.. in the mountains.

5. Something scripted

6. Worldspace, if the landscaping and such look good.. AND they have good enough shaders for sky effects Armantha will definitely be here, if I don't finish tes4 version.

7. If my scripting/programming skills are good enough I think skyrim version of oge or SGE for better effects.

Finally... play game and mod to my wicked little heart's content...

as for playing? I'm getting both ps3 and pc. Why? because I refuse REFUSE to be denied access to DLC and good content (so so so so so SO getting LE.. and go on rocking in the corner saying "my precious...")

Well, I loved Bloodmoon. I just hope they implement the Thu'um in Skyrim.

[donnato]

Well going with the dragon theme, I`m figuring we`ll have some new(ish) textures and meshes to make with...Right off hand I`m thinking scale armors,dragon tooth weapons...and of course...the Dragon Bone Throne...claw jewelry,Oooh...a side questline involving the Helm of the Ancient Drake.I could go on but you get my drift...It`ll be a long time till we see just what Beth has as vanilla and just how the whole thing takes shape.I`m sooo going to need that secondary HDD in my laptop now. :sleeping:

[DsoS]

Straight to the mods I say. (I'll most likely get it for both 360 and PC) So I have the vanilla only and the modded version.

I've (we all have) been use mods for 4+ years, and I think that it wouldn't "feel" right without some kind of mod loaded up.

I'm really interested in knowing if it will support multi-core processors and 4+gb of ram, and the stuff that TES:IV doesn't.

anyway, gotta clock in for work. See you guys/gals later.

[WillieSea]

I will play a few hours, then open up the CS and make a Levelers mod.

Its always the first thing that needs to be made.

[Mishaxhi]

I'll buy the game on 360 first then tank through it until I know it inside out

Then I'll get it on PC and start modding an epic and huge quest mod. Sounds farfetchd, I know, but I was almost there with The Northern Front, I just got into the Oblivion modding scene too late to make anything of recognition. The fact that it's set in Skyrim couldn't be any more perfect for me

[greenwarden]

Play it on 360 first, then decide if its something I want to install on the PC (presuming I can run it). In terms of mods, my earliest wishes will probably be: a house of my own making, and then a companion of some kind, preferably an animal companion. I find the series rather lonely- sometimes that's just what I want, mind you- and I find it nice to have a friend crawling through dungeons with me.

[AndalayBay]

...snipped... mind you- and I find it nice to have a friend crawling through dungeons with me.

Beth might offer that. There were a couple of opportunities to have a companion for an extended stint in F3 - one of the few positives in that one F3 was too dreary for my weary bones

Indeed, I actually really enjoy Fallout 3, and a good part of that enjoyment comes from having my foul-mouthed buddy Jericho by my side! His bitter mumbling, interrupted only by pauses to accommodate his chronic smoker's cough, just amuses me. Oh, and the smack talking to our enemies. Love it.

I wonder if they have considered adding some optional "recruits" in Skyrim? Competent and battle-ready companions- ie not Farwil Indarys or the Adoring Torch-Bearer.

[ub3rman123]

I think after I've played the game enough to get a good grasp on the tone and lore of it, I'll start making dungeons. Maybe a player home.

[The Vyper]

I'll definitely port some of my mods over. The first three on my list are Stealth Armors, Arrow Spells & Astral Storage. Others will have to wait until I see how the game works. I'll most likely make myself a house mod too.

[StarX]

Like IS said: Porting over The Arsenal for sure!

I do hope they work out a better lighting system that gets rid of the dreaded bleeding and allows us to use directional lights.

[Meo]

Play through it once for sure.

Then, fingers crossed for having the tools readily available, i will spent countless days practicing getting new stuff in game, and i will directly go for Beth big omissions to bring forth the greatest resources the modding world has ever seen.

But all that will only come to pass if i can acquire a new polygon generating machine, and those arent cheap.

My sentiments exactly. Any game I get I always play through on 360 or ps3. Its way easier on my eyes that way. That and the fact that I have NOTHING else to distract me lol... then I will get for puter. A companion is a must for me so I think I would try that..

[InsanitySorrow]

Companions are nice to have, I hope they take onboard what was done for New Vegas, I really like the companions. Though they could do with better AI

I think my first "proper" mod for it would most likely be a basic (but working) petshop.

[Beana]

I love the wheel menu for companions in New Vegas. I hope they do something like that too

[InsanitySorrow]

Would be good if they did, starting to wonder what they're going to do about companions.

[Johnn123]

Hopefully they will include info like that in the GI article on Skyrim

[Fiore1300]

It might be too soon to call it...but...I'd like to see a TES V: Skyrim: Return to Cyrodiil mod.....

[ZuTheSkunk]

I'll be waiting for Oldskyrim in the first place. Unless I'm going to buy a console...

Aside of that: things making the game easier (like my Summon Merchant Spell mod) and removing the frustrating solutions (like this completely idiotic Repair system from new Fallouts), things related to Khajiits (my favourite race, with Argonians at the second place - I'm going to kill someone if they'll screw them up!)... and things fixing just anything that will result in my reaction "THEY DID IT WRONG". Or just anything that I really need in the game in order to have fun playing it.

Plus, I'm probably going to wait for Skyrim-related version of Enhanced Quest Roleplaying, since it's almost obvious to me that the game will be a hack'n'slash incorrectly placed in cRPG genre. And if not hack'n'slash, then action-RPG - with more "action" than "RP" - at best. It's too obvious with current Bethesda's crew.
