New GameInformer Screenshots : V - Skyrim

» Tue Apr 13, 2010 4:50 pm

First of all, there is a sticky topic right above this stating how you can't posts scans, links to scans, or transcripts of magazine articles. It is a simple rule. As for sending it to photobucket and linking it, how would he explain where he got the article? Not only would it look like a page from a magazine, but if it was from a free, and publicly released set, why wouldn't he just link to a reputable website that is showing it.

Mr. Moose, for now just enjoy the fact that you can look at a few pictures that we haven't seen. Don't risk getting in trouble for 3 new pics that will be on the internet within a week.

Good points, guys. Good points. Just finished my avatar over there anyway and I'd rather not get banned immediately.

My pictures of the screens don't do them their lovely justice anyway. Sorry to be a tease though!

Just got excited. Eheheh.

How was it a joke? It had better gameplay than AC1 or AC2.....and continued the story.....

If you're talking about the multiplayer, then I would understand.

Anyway, to be OT: The new GameInformer will be awesome for many reasons, but it actually surprises me that Skyrim is making an appearance in each and every one for the past 3 or 4, now.

For one, the gameplay is not better. Heck, it has been the exact same since the first game. Ubisoft just adds in a couple new gadgets with the same exact rules.
Secondly, the multiplayer is a complete joke and a waste of time and resources that should actually be allocated towards working on the campaign.
Third, being stuck in only Rome was completely uneventful and somewhat boring. I enjoyed traveling around in AC1 and AC2 personally. I don't really care how "big" Rome is.
Fourth of all, I'm tired of playing Ezio! I enjoyed Altair much more, and even Desmond is a better character than Ezio is in my opinion. Ubisoft seems to be obsessed with his character though... At least you can play all three in Revelations.

I'm quite mad about The Witcher 2 as well, but... they are different games, both of them really cool. I just don't see the point of posting that in a thread about new screenshots.

He's doing that in multiple threads it seems.

OP you might not wanna post any pictures here but if you find something (legal) online please let us know. Otherwise be sure to do your nefarious deeds in secret

Alright, will do! I'll eye everything I can and possibly just update the OP. Hope it doesn't take long before the 'legal' versions are out. :unsure2: I don't want any mobs at my door.

Like I said, it's a waiting game again :shrug:

Yeah, no idea, but I'm personally keeping my eye out and will update when they drop ASAP.

Anyone see this in stores yet?

grrr, wish I had gotten my copy in the mail today, hopefully it comes in tomorrow.

Did I miss something about the witcher 2? Did it get delayed like mass effect or what?

Don't worry. When I say I'm quite mad I say that I cannot wait for it!

Is there anything besides the 3 screens MagickaMoose? A short article?

» Tue Apr 13, 2010 2:53 pm

Thanks, MagickaMoose. I was thinking we wouldn't have anything new until E3 so it's good to know that we will.

Oh, nope. A few captions on the screens, but that's about it. And only 1 page.

Ahah, my pleasure.

Was surprised to see that no-one had posted already... but yes! And there's always the Q&A that's going on. Hope some of our questions get answered before E3.

Right....you obviously have no grasp of the point of the series.

Enjoy your opinions. I was just curious.

I think the Q&A will be posted right around E3. Probably at the end of this month. Nice lead in to E3 for sure!

Havent read the rules (still) but if he uploaded them to deviant art or something or photobucket and sent the link for reference but didnt say anything about it how could he get in trouble? i mean i guess he could now cuz he said something.... but....

You really think us moderators are that gullible?

Anyone caught providing links to illegal screenshots will be ~~shot~~ warned+suspended on sight... So just buy the magazine or have the patience to look at them when they become available on Bethesda's website.

Thanks,

Milt

scan the part then cut the magazine part out and show us the pictures.. I think it's legal..

Hahaha, I don't but I am taking pictures of them as well as I can... uploading soon, hope that doesn't cross the forum rules.

Do NOT post magazine scans. Read the pinned threads at the top of this forum. :stare:

We warn for that. So now you know.

Edit: OMG. moderator ninja! That's what I get for starting a post and walking away.
Milt: Heh heh heh :evil:

Thanks OP - can't wait to see 'em.

As for scans, post http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1187933-new-gameinformer-screenshots/page__view__findpost__p__17650753 of this thread contains a link to some. They're no longer relevant and were posted quite innocently I'm sure, but someone might want to surreptitiously remove the link before the ~~evil rule enforcers~~ lovely moderators see it.
