I thought carts/carriages a la Daggerfall had been confirmed long ago. No?

I'm thinking cart chases through the mountain ranges with hillbilly music playing!!!

We shall just have to wait and see!

Is that a hooded person just on top of that guy's shoulder? perhaps the executioner..?

I want that laser rifle! I'd make it a flashlight :teehee:

Look people, it IS a carriage.

There now, see?

Good eye indeed.

It would be even better if traveling by cart/carriage was an actual animation rather than just another form of fast travel.
"crosses fingers for a mod"

A fantastic mod!!!!

Oooh, it IS a first person view from the back of the cart. And there's another person in there with you! I wonder if he's like the Dunmer in Morrowind when you first wake up on the prison ship.

That's a Hummer on 26s.

" now them skyrim boys are in a mess uh trouble"(dukes of hazzard)

I don′t know it is a first person view. I think it′s more like a cut scene...

Is it just me or does the cart driver look like he is wearing a baseball cap?

I want to have a carriage like that in the game but fancier and have people drive me around

I see it now yeah. Thanks. Looks great. Reminds me of Red Dead Redemption carts

They did one for Oblivion, it was far from perfect, but I still found it better than fast travel, it was fun to watch the wolves give chase.

Logical Spoiler Theory:

You're a prisoner, tied to a prisoner's cart/carriage being hauled to the location where you're to be executed.
You're tied to the sides along with other prisoners.

I'm sure once you reach Helgen, you'll be pelted with cabbage and other various vegetables.


And then the dragon attacks. During the ruccus- you are freed and you escape.

No, it can't. Elder Scrolls are always told from the PC's perspective. Morrowind had a dream at the start, yes, but it was the PC's perspective. The only exception I can think was Oblivion's introduction but it wasn't really a major part of the story and didn't really involve your character yet. It was basically just a shot of the emperor and a bird's eye view of the Imperial City with giant guards. Telling NPC stories through cutscenes doesn't happen in TES games, thankfully.

I'm pretty sure it's the intro and you're in the carriage. Probably will involve the character creation in some way. Seems like a good idea to me to immediately show the great outdoors, instead of the cramped 30-minute dungeon crawl at the start of Oblivion.

I'm going with cart. Carriages tend to have a roof of some sort, and seats. Carts are just... Carts. Open, no seats, you can throw whatever in them, like hay, or prisoners. It's like Gandalf's cart. He wasn't driving a carriage full of fireworks to Hobbiton, it was a cart, or a wagon.

And the guy which is playings seem to be doing that with a PS3 controller...

It's a helmet, what you think is the peak is the cheek guard.

Ah, I see it now. Thanks.

I think it is the intro too... But the real question here is if we can use the cart for travel and for carry things... And this would be great...!!!! :foodndrink:

Wagons = infinite carrying capacity?

From what we know so far, the use of carriages is another form of fast travel, they cost gold because they can take you to locations you've not discovered yet.

Wasn't this already confirmed due to players finding a group of guards who were transporting a prisoner?


Minor spoilers:

The player was then prompted to either give the prisoner an item, free the prisoner or do nothing.
