MSI GT783... Pretty slick machine, with a 2GB 580M GPU. For a laptop, it's a beast. Should be here mid to late next week. Company paid,

Holy crap that thing cost more then an alienware laptop and a macbook......wowser.

Re: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Meh, depends where you get it. I definitely wouldn't pay near full price on it. I got a substantial discount, and like I said, company money

I am at level 33 and give you folks props who have run out of things to do in this game. To me, it seems to always have something new! wow!

I am on a Skyrim vacation after 170 plus hours already. I am a level 42 High Elf Destruction Mage.

I have only completed the College of Winterhold. I am almost done with the Thieves Guild. And I just finished Aduians Wall in the main quest so i am not nearly done with the main quest either.

My log is filled. This game is massive and IMO a masterpiece. I felt this was the right time to take a break, get into some other games I am playing and wait for the 1.4 patch to fix the insane freezing issues I am going through.

I am itching to play and I have only been off the crack errr I mean Skyrim kool-aide for less than a week.

Anyway awesome game. And I will miss her for the next month or so as I am committed to completing Batman AC and now I just started Mass Effect 2 and am in love with another game LOL.

Too many games man.....too many.

Yeah I'm jealous too.

I bought a Dell XPS 17 a few months ago with the GT555m and thought it was pretty much state of the art. Already there is a much better mobile gpu available...my welcome to PC gaming I guess.

I would love to see how the 580M over clocks. I can get a 30% boost on the 555m with very little heating.

I'm at 38 and still have about 12 quests in the log along with 15 or so miscellaneous ones. Unfortunately over half of those are either bugged quests that I can't complete, or are quests that are stuck in my log even though I have completed then.

Re: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Yeah, I was reading up on that while I was doing some of the jobs. It seems like it could take forever. I'll probably just have to dedicate one play session to doing the jobs and restoring it since apparently I'm the only one working.

This kept me going for a while. It's tedious jobs though. You'll know your on the right track because you'll get special assignments every now and then.

The same type of quest to restore happens with the Companions too.

1.4 patch is great and I just started installing mods for the first time. I am running 13 mods simultaneously and my FPS seems better than the vanilla game pre-patch. My favorite mods are FXAA, Skyrim Enhanced Shaders and Floral overhaul. Also no-more blocky faces makes a big difference.

The armor packs and sword packs are just icing on the cake for me.

Re: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

CK out tomorrow, I'm very excited. I've read rumors that the surprise is Bethesda's own high resolution texture pack. Would love to see how theirs compare to some of the ones I've downloaded.

[WTF]

Re: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

That's awesome. Just in time for my lappy to arrive. A high res pack will be awesome to boot.

Re: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

So I've finished most factions, haven't really touched the Civil War quest. I'm actually having thoughts of

Spoiler

doing the "Destroy the Dark Brotherhood!" quest line, as I'm trying to make this guy a "good guy".

I really want Windshear.

I was clearing out a cave that had a gang of vamps in there. I got contracted with the virus. I was gonna do the quest for the cure, but after reading up on it I decided it was easier to just reload it and have Lydia and my atronach do all the hard work, haha.

I used the shout "Frost" froze his ***, got the staff I needed and retreated. Some battles aren't doable at the time. I need some help to beat his ***.

I haven't gotten my enchantment up high enough to enchant any good armor and keep my magika regeneration % up, so I was unlucky.

Re: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Dammit!

Lydia and I hiked up to the top of Shearpoint for a nice adventure. We got attacked by a blood dragon and took care of that beastie. Then Lydia was good enough to point out a wall with a new word on it, so I approached to learn the word when out pops Krosis the Dragon Priest.

The bastard killed my Lydia!

I'm actually a little saddened over the whole thing.

RIP Lydia....I hardly knew ya!
