The February Game Informer Cover Thread V : V - Skyrim

» Tue May 04, 2010 4:51 am

How can there be a leak when the magazine hasn't even shipped yet?

Lots of ways... I mean do you know what 'leak' means?

Don't you think it's possible that someone who works with GI or Bethesda would leak it?

Bethesda was pretty good at keeping TESV a secret. I don't think it's going to be leaked from them.

How late do you guys think it's going to be put on the website? It's 1:12 in Holland right now, and I'm hoping that it 'll be somewhere between an hour and 2 hours, because I don't want to go to bed before I've seen the cover

Sadly not gonna happen

It's on US time and they're a bit behind

Well, it's 4pm Pacific right now, so I'd say: go to bed

Holy moly you guys, calm this thread down and stop repeating posts. On the last few Elder Scrolls V Speculation Threads the mods got amazingly angry at how we were behaving, we went through a thread a day and most of the posts had no substance. We don't have anything more to discuss. If you have a question then read the first post. If your question is not answered there then ask away.

If you have a new quote from twitter then post away, if you want to comment on the post then do so. Just dont ask the same question that everyone else has already asked.

Posts of little substance have no buisness cluttering up this thread or any other for that matter.

Well, it's 4pm Pacific right now, so I'd say: go to bed

That was a post of little substance. ^

I don't want to get this thread closed and I know none of you do either. We will have lots to talk about once the magazine cover is revealed. Just don't talk in circles. It is not a forum rule but It pisses the mods off.

And by the way for those who have been wondering:

Lets keep ALL direct discussion of the magazine here, just to save the mods the trouble of locking one hundred different threads about the same thing. Also so that if someone posts a transcript or direct quote or scan that they will be able to remove it quickly, because there will be nowhere else to discuss such things.

So let's say that I decide to subscribe to GI tonight. Will I be sent the February issue the same day that everyone else is or will it takes a few weeks to finalize the subscription, and other dissapointments like that?

Aww, well off to bed then

You flat out wont get the magazine unfortunately.

» Mon May 03, 2010 3:16 pm

Schade, well I suppose I can wait a few more weeks until it hits news stands. *starts to slowly rip out hair*

» Mon May 03, 2010 10:19 pm

Tomorrow.

I think you guys are overreacting.

Sure we will get to see the cover.. and it will be art, not a screen shot of the game. And when the cover is unvield, we still wont have any information about the game. We still have to wait a month for that.

I suppose we can pick the art apart and come up with our own theorys, as we have done in the past. But realy nothing will be confirmed untill some one gets that magazione.

» Tue May 04, 2010 4:38 am

I hope the screenshots are from the PC version, i honestly wanna see this game in all its glory.

» Mon May 03, 2010 2:22 pm

I'm surprised it has not been leaked yet.

I imagine GameInformer is guarding the article like their lives were under threat of execution should they fail :tongue:

» Mon May 03, 2010 3:34 pm

No. We will only have to wait until subscribers get their GI issue. Which may be anywhere from the same day to a couple of days after that.

» Mon May 03, 2010 9:17 pm

Does anyone know if we are allowed to give info out on the forum? I am not talking about quotes or pictures or scans. I mean talking about it in our own words but clearly with information from the GI? I will ask a mod anyways but if you know then tell me please.

» Tue May 04, 2010 4:55 am

Yes, the mods stated that several times

Perhaps, if I get my hands on the magazine somehow, I'll look for all important points and re-phrase them so they can be posted. Unless that goes too far already.

I'd like to know this also, can we paraphrase and discuss?

More like a week at tops, probably more like the next day.

And at Mankar, yes we can. Just no links to scans

» Tue May 04, 2010 4:58 am

Thanks spec, I just want entirely sure. :talk:

» Mon May 03, 2010 6:15 pm

I think not allowing people to even discuss the info in their own words would be a little nazi-ish.

» Mon May 03, 2010 9:26 pm

A month? You don't really think that not a single person will get a copy of the mag until february? it should take a week max. Besides that though gi is also hosting a skyrim online hub all month long and it goes live tomorrow!

Speaking of the Hub, what do you think we'll learn from the first day of that thing? any pictures or concepts you think?

» Mon May 03, 2010 5:25 pm

For anyone wanting to know, it looks like GI's headquarters are in Minneapolis, MN. I'm guessing those nearby to the headquarters (like me, [censored] yes!) will get the issue sooner.

Unless the magazines are shipped from somewhere else? I really have no idea how mag distribution works.

If this is directed to anyone, probably not. We will probably see the cover, everyone will spaz out over that, and then we will have to wait a day or two to see more about it(at least on the site anyway)
