The mountains on page 48 : V

» Wed Jan 12, 2011 4:41 pm

So, I still can't get over this. Apparently this is in-game. Anybody who knows what image I'm referring to should be completely :shocking:

In game cinematic? Perhaps. Nonetheless, what the hell.

That dragon one? Not bad at all.

But the fire effects on the troll one aren't good at all !!

No, top of page 48, the image behind the text "A New Land".

I believe that todd said it was, something about that was on twitter

Yeah, I don't understand either. (no pun or joke intended...) They just look unreal.

No, not the dragon. That's page 47....

» Wed Jan 12, 2011 4:40 am

Hines and a developer here on the forums said it was. And that doesn't... suprise you?

we can only hope :ahhh:

@DCDeacon Um, and the dragon perched upon a pillar on page 47, is that art, or a screenshot?

@MrTissueBox Straight screenshot. No tricks.

Whoops! Sorry, wrong one. Hold on...

I swear, I thought he responded that to my other tweet about the mountains. Guess not...

Well, I asked Pete about the mountains to be clear.

Hey, there you are! I love your piano version of the Skyrim theme, I'm sort of learning it myself.

The very first image with the perched dragon also has some incredible looking mountains, albeit blurred...
Unless they're both from in-game cinematics, I think it's safe to say that the mountains in this game will be ridikulus.

Yeah the shots in the game look stunning. Especially the mountains, and the up-close shot of dragonborne about to fight a dragon up close. Looks great, maybe some object motion blur in effect?

this wasn't in response to your tweet, but http://twitter.com/DCDeacon/status/24025244436004864, so.

honestly this makes me wonder if the mountain footage in the background at the VGA announcement wasn't in-game footage.

sweet the dragon is real, I think I would rather have that over the mountains, those look way too foggy

and no it wasn't in game footage (I believe) I think they said they rendered it for that

» Wed Jan 12, 2011 12:01 pm

Ya no way they look that good. :rolleyes:

» Wed Jan 12, 2011 6:43 pm

Don't quote me, but I think they said it is a real game object. Obviously, not that exactly. That just looked way to amazing to be in game. But a in game replication may be a location of sorts.

What isn't in-game footage, they rendered what for what? Sources?

Here's what a dev had to say about the image: http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1158209-game-informer-owes-us-two-more-screenshots/page__st__40

He says several things about it in that thread actually so look through it.

well, damn it... i wish i could see the "unbelievable mountains"... you guys act like the damn things are beating you with snow shovels and causing a blizzard whenever you flip to them!

wish i had the stupid magazine, its frustrating just hearing about the images... :banghead:

For a while I just thought it was a render or even a painting. Simply too awesome.

It looks quite nice but i'm gonna remain skeptical.

i found every page scan online EXCEPT pg 48

» Wed Jan 12, 2011 4:20 am

Must remain...pesemistic...must keep expectations...low...ahahahahhh....

They just, I mean, in game? Those things? They look...like I could render myself infront of them and mail them to my family back home as a postcard just to mess with them. >.> Can I climb that thing? Can I go there too?

» Wed Jan 12, 2011 3:46 pm

Why not? It's pretty realistic at this point

Same here, was looking for it yesterday and just about threw my keyboard the monitor out of anger.

Visions says he can't say whether the shots are from the 360, but that we're gonna need a new pair of pants for something.

What if it's not on the 360... it's on the PSP!
And then imagine how it looks on the 360!

Jokes, but that would be good...

Seriously... I looked for like 15 minutes last night and couldn't find anything.
