The coastal landscapes

Post » Fri Sep 17, 2010 1:20 pm

Where there are no glaciers everywhere, I would like the coasts to full of sharp, steep cliffs with huge waves crashing into them.

I'm really hoping water environments/coastal environments get some love from Bethesda this go around. They were interested in Morrowind, but lacked waterlife. They were bland in Oblivion and had EVEN LESS waterlife. I'd like to see some coastal areas like those found in alaska.

I'd like to see interesting locations (shipwrecks, grottos, washed up leviathan/whale corpses) and wildlife (whales, sharks, maybe a kraken) as well.

heavy and huge waves crushing upon cold cliffs when its storm :D


I'd love that. Considering what they've said about water, would it be realistic to imagine that jumping into waves like that would end up with you getting smashed against the rocks nearby? I hope so.

Haha nice one.

I have to admit I really hope there are fjords as well.

The first thing I'm doing once I'm out of prison is visiting that northern shore. I'm looking forward to some waves crashing on an icy coast.

I believe that the northern portion of Skyrim borders on water, with many islands from east to west.

Perhaps unofficial, but as an example: http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/1717/skyrimmapls.png

these are all great, exactly how it should look like imo.

do you think we'll get real waves?


Here are my favourites, especially the last one:

Another question: Is there a game out that has got real wave simulation. Crysis hasn't real wave simulation as far as I know in terms of waves crushing on the beach... That'd be nice to see...
