Re: Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion discussion Part II

i cant quick travel because the horse is now considered an enemy

So you stole it? If that's the case, talk to a guard, go to jail, and you're rid of the horse.

Re: Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion discussion Part II

Maybe find one of those roaming guards and see if he can kill it? That sucks man. Is it just too tough, or does it just seem to have unlimited health?

unlimited health.. i cornered him where he couldnt stampede me, and i beat him down with every weapon i have for 5 min, and no health went down... but blood was going everywhere

Re: Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion discussion Part II

Yeah I figured they'd not let you hit friends, but I'm glad they do. More strategy to it. I thought I hit my horse before, but I guess I didn't swing blindly and clobber him enough to upset him.

I DID piss him off by leaping him off of a cliff, though. I just wanted to see what happened. He let out a bigass neigh but didn't buck me off or anything. I figured I killed all the humans I could find, why not try a horse.

Tcrouch, you're my hero. I also jumped off a tall cliff with my horse. ******* thing survived.

Re: Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion discussion Part II

Oh yea, you guys should try this. Whenever you see a nicely prepared table with food and the like. Jump on the table and knock everything off. Or grab things off shelves and toss them on the floor. Leave items in a persons bed.


Has anybody started their gambling career at the arena? WHen I get back to the Imperial City, I'll join to fight. First I'm gonna blow wads of cash on the yellow team.

Well..yeah, I got that part. But your FEET work, right? Run to a road, follow the road, talk to a guard (guards wander the roads, usually on horseback). Are you saying you're stuck in the middle of a field and can't move??

Re: Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion discussion Part II

I forgot to share a great story from last night.

I was at some Inn somewhere, not sure which one. So after a good nights sleep, I head downstairs and there's this guy on the stairs, sneaking down to the first floor. So he starts talking **** as soon as I get near him. Not being the sadistic killer TCrouch is, I say whatever buddy I have places to be, things to do.

So as I'm making my way towards the door, I notice him sneak over to the guard so decided to keep an eye on him. He sneaks behind the guard and steals a silver bowl or plate or something right off the shelf, in broad daylight!!. The guard doesn't see him and the guy makes a run for it, heads back upstairs killing an innocent guest on his way. The clueless guard just stands there and does nothing.

So I head up to the 2nd floor and the arrogant prick is just sitting there at a table acting like nothing happened. I walk over to confront him, and he immediately starts talking **** again. So I say, ok now its on bitch, it's time for you to feel the wrath of my Warhammer. So I wind up, take a swing, somehow whiff even though he's sitting right in front of me. The little bitch takes off running, screaming that he's being attacked and I get arrested for trying to club him!!

Personally I think him and the guard have a nice little racket going on at this inn. When I level up some more, they're both gettin the warhammer right to the head.

That might be the coolest, most unique story I've heard about AI in a game in my life.

Tell me about it. I was so impressed I didn't even care about getting arrested. Sad thing is, I almost didn't notice it until I realized he was sneaking and I stopped to watch him.

Re: Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion discussion Part II

Anybody messing w/ Alchemy? I didn't at all in Morrowind, but now I'm getting into it as well. We should have a recipe page!

Re: Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion discussion Part II

I tried some but couldn't get anything worth a damn out of it. There's so much to do and I had so little time last night I was just going from one crime scene to the next. I'll probably slow my pace down a little and try to experience more of the early game tonight.

Re: Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion discussion Part II

Had a weird thing happen last night.

I was exploring a dungeon and killed some of the bad guys and my health was low, so I find a mat and lay down for a little nap. 2 hours later I wake up and turn around to look at the mat I just laid down on and there was a bandit laying there as well. Now I'm not sure what happened between us but he was definately upset that I was leaving without saying goodbye so we had a fight and I killed him.

I guess it was a little Brokeback dungeon action or something.....

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Re: Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion discussion Part II

A little off topic, so forgive me for this.

Is there a way (PC version obviously) to enable a FPS meter so you can see what you are getting?

There is, but I'm not sure what it is. I'm guessing it's a simple setting in an INI file. I'll take a look when I get home.
