How do you want to hear about TES5's release? : The Elder Scrolls Series Discussion

» Mon Mar 14, 2011 5:20 pm

When they do announce it i hope it wont just be a small picture or a tiny trailer with just showing the logo etc. like some companies tend to do.
But i guess anything is better then nothing, its starting to get a bit annoying that they havent said anything at all, would been nice to at least know the title and that they are working on it..

If my choices were between doing a double-take when seeing it on a store shelf, or seeing something online to the effect of, "TES5 in development, targeting fall of 2012 for release," I'd have to side with the complete surprise option.

By either seeing it on a shelf, or hearing that it's being made, I'd be equally ecstatic. One way, I'd get to go home and start playing it, and the other way I'd have to wait two years while being routinely teased with it. Yup, easy call.

It will be interesting at least to have an official TES5 section on the forum. Curious to see how many people look at TES general once 5 is announced.

I would personally like to come onto these forums one day, and find a new thread that gives some type of riddle. That leads to a countdown, or something similar to when they will give a big announcement, which will be the announcement of "Where's Waldo? 2". But that will just be cover to draw everyone away, and then, when no one is on the forums, they will make a new thread, that will have the the official announcement for TES 5 in it.

HAHAHA. This

What did he say that might have been important?

He thanked us for our support, said that hopefully there could be a Bethfest some day, etc. I was ecstatic when I saw he posted in my thread.

The last option would be fun tbh lol!

I can picture myself doing a double take "is that NO WAY!"

» Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:45 pm

I don't believe I see you in this section much. What's the special occasion? Do you smell a TES V announcement in the air as I do? The air is thick with the smell of Nordic alchohol, is it not?

I've always lurked in the TESV speculation thread, and the GI cover tweet really got me excited.

I had always hoped that they would just release it with no preamble, no screen shots, no lead in whatsoever. Also, when you start, it would take a while to actually learn what the main quest would be. Imagine playing the game having absolutely no idea what to expect. This would only succeed though if the game is good. If it svcked, then everyone would say "well I guess now we know why they didn't allow any previews...

I would love it if I just opened up this site one day and it was completely overhauled with TESV art and had special intros and whatnot. It would be even better if the intro just started with a blank screen except for a date just sitting in the middle.

How is an anouncemen being smelled? Because I don't smell it, doesn't this belng in speculation anyway?

Plus, they beat my favorite baby with a lead filled snow shoe.

Looks like we got a Zappa fan in here! ^_^

I say they don't announce it, ever.

I say they put it in the stores, and then wait for 6 months. That way, they can make everyone who didn't know about it already mad.

» Mon Mar 14, 2011 1:54 pm

They should just casually put up a TESV section on the forums with the title of the game.

» Mon Mar 14, 2011 8:22 pm

An announcement via http://theelderscrolls.com would be lovely.

» Tue Mar 15, 2011 12:35 am

I want Todd to make a thread in the Rogue Warrior section, because we'd never find it.

LOL

Yeah, I guess I should tell you guys right now. We're working on TESV. Enjoy.

EDIT made on May 7, 2010: lollers jk

Personally, I'd enjoy it if they brought Michael Kirkbride in to work with Greg Keyes on the second TES novel and hide in a clue about the next game in there somewhere. Oh and yeah them just coming straight out and saying here's TES V *show screenshot*. One month later. Here's a teaser trailer. *Shows a 15-30 second long clip of awesomeness that reveals nothing about the plot.* Then, it goes quiet for a while. Then the big release.

where is the option for a nvde candygram?

Well, if I had included that option there wouldn't be a need for the poll now would there?

» Tue Mar 15, 2011 1:15 am

I actually want it to be announced at Quakecon. Not only this, but i think it WILL be announced then. Think about it. Bethesda is SPONSORING it and has also been working on a game since 2008.

» Mon Mar 14, 2011 8:51 pm

I want a 5 minute announcement with a Jackson 5 reunion (Janet filling in for Michael) at a special 5pm airing of the 5th episode of V on the 5th of July whilst 5 Bethesda developers high-5 each other 5 times while they recite these 5 words, "The Elder Scrolls Five: Skyrim"

» Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:35 pm

In the middlethe second novel (which will cost $75) There will be a CD with no markings on it or whatever. If you put it into a PC, it would load up as Tes V. Otherwise it would tell you that it was Tes V and to either put it in a PC or go swap it at the bookstore.

LOL

is that post real probably not but if it isn't real how did you fake it?

» Mon Mar 14, 2011 3:00 pm

You forgot the option "Large gaming convention"

» Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:29 pm

For more than 3 yrs I am checking every day will i see that announcement so it would really be nice if we finally see it and see it HERE!!!

Yeah, it's fake.

I knew I would confuse someone by it.
