The combat better be as dynamic as that trailer implied, or I'm gonna be pissed.

I'm just waiting for a game that has the combat depth of Mount&Blade or Jedi Knight 2-3 in a nice open-world RPG setting. We'll see.

[T-LoW]

Jedi Knight 2-3

Played the hell outa these two (also their MP-parts).
Tried TFU once and quit after half an hour because the combat system sucked donkey balls compared to the 6 year older Jedi Academy

But never liked Oblivions combat system either. Actually it was one of the worst parts of the whole game (despite the horrible, horrible menus).

yes thats a screenshot

[Ransom]

haha yeah okay

haha yeah okay

no really it is. its a composite of two screens from an xbox360.  Don't know if it has been doctored or not though.

In fact, if you zoom in on the clouds you can tell that they are just sprites, if this was done in photoshop or something it would look a lot better. The biggest tell is the low-res shadows.
The only reason it looks so good is the really good hdr shading.

Hopefully it won't rain all the friggin time like it did in Oblivion

[Zacam]

If it does, I'm sure there will be a Mod for that.

At least make the NPCs smart enough to get out of the rain. Bugs the hell out of me seeing the Market District full of people talking about mudcrabs while it's pouring rain.

Gameplay trailer? Yeah, right. I'll bet my right leg that the gameplay isn't going to look anything like that.

Hey! Rain is cosy.

The rain effects in Elder Scrolls are the best part of the game. I used to use Morrowind's to help me sleep.

[Ransom]

Rain always bothered me in Elder Scrolls because if you looked down while moving you could tell it was just a static effect centred on the player.

[Grizzly]

When I saw how the Witcher handled rain, the Elder Scrolls AI just started to look... fake...

Someone actually made a mod for Oblivion that makes not only the player wet, but all other NPCs, when it rains and after the player/an npc has been swimming.

its been confirmed that everything in the trailer is in game and that the dragon fight was not scripted. I frankly don't understand how thats hard to believe.

I don't believe it: the camera is all over the place (in the dragon fight, you see your guy from third person front and behind with the camera in a different angle in every shot) and there's no interface of any kind visible. That can't be what the gameplay looks like unless that fight is just a fancy-prancy in-game cutscene with quicktime events for controls; you couldn't even control your guy properly otherwise.

It's the same difference as in something like this:

AC2 "Gameplay trailer" (I don't know if that's official or not, but at least it could easily be)
AC2 Actual gameplay

The real gameplay we see in the latter video doesn't really look anything like the "gameplay trailer".

[Topgun]

So you are complaining about a cinematographic camera?
