:rofl: :rofl:

You pointed that Arkane is developing Skyrim together with BGS. We pointed that Bethesda Game Studio team will just use it as a source of inspiration.
Clearly those are different points.

I am not fighting, you got your argument wrong and we corrected it. It seems now you are trying to save your ass for making that claim and trying not to look stupid.

This thread made my day.

This guy just won the internet today. Congrats Skyrim, your thread has won the Bethesda Game Forums Trophy for Outstanding Thread Fail of the Day Award :trophy:

This thread is heading for disaster.

New comers... *sigh*

Heh, just kidding. But seriously Skyrim, get your facts right before posting anything.

It's funny how they just go away and disappear...

Agreed!
Maybe even month

I find it extremely ironic that we have had to argue with a person who's username is Skyrim about who is developing Skyrim.

:confused: :facepalm:

Request this thread to be locked, please...the points have been made and nothing more significant needs to be discussed. the OP is..misinformed....and something else "" lol really? ok.

Guys, everyone makes mistakes every once in a while. There was no need to be so harsh to him.

I agree completely.
That cookie comment was hilarious though, sigged.

Sure. But that would be the same case for all developers and all innovative or successful games.

Everyone can see how the combat systems work just by playing the game. So all developers and games inspire everything. With that in mind it is moot to be owned by the same parent company or have the same publisher.

Looking at the code itself would be fairly useless for the most part. Unless you were doing straight rip. Which won't happen. And sure the code would have to be modified even in a straight copy/paste that it would be a minor headache. I imagine it would be easier for the programmers to just replicate the system on their own, independent to the original code..

No this is what we do on these forums. We are elitists and when someone is wrong, we make sure they know about it.

It seems to be more about the fact that he said one thing, people pointed out how he was wrong and then he denied having said it.

Maybe, but people would be more likely to believe you if you provided some sort of evidence to back that up. The quote in the first post does nothing of the sort.

Not only is Outlander correct, but unless I am mistken Zenimax is primarily funded by http://www.provequity.com/, which are the Real owners of the company and invest hundreds of millions of dollars into the company to make these AAA rated games work.

I'm sure the companies share ideas and input, Todd did speak of looking at IdTech5 and sharing ideas with the id folks, so we know communications happen. But I prefer to take Todd at his word when he says they've built a completely new engine, and furthermore believe that Arkane would be mentioned by now if they were playing an active role.

Lets not turn this thread into another episode of the X-files eh? BGS is making Skyrim, Zenimax owns the them, and Providence provides the cash. Short, simple, sweet - no conspiracies required.

Epic Fail

Quit feeding the troll ppl.

While were at it, I remember the guy who lead the OOOhaul helped in Obsidian's team with fonv. Any chance he may help out in Skyrim, i used his overhaul at my cousin's and liked it alot more than the vanilla.

But I'm just guessing. :teehee:

:facepalm:

Nah, he is now part of Obsidian's crew. And Obsidian has nothing to do with Skyrim.

Guess it's that time of the month again where some people just can't seem to behave like civilized people. If I wasn't tired after spending 3 hours trying to find out why my TES4:Oblivion wasn't starting up; I am tired now.

So locking this one down and I'll ban all you guys tomorrow, alright? Cheers
