That's it, the big feature that everyone will get hyped for in the next game is Bethesda finally cracking vertical pathfinding. NPC's will use the acrobatics skill and there will be bosmer ninjas.

Will that mean that walled cities will be in the open world?
And no longer limited to their own cells?

No, because people on the 8 year old xbox wouldn't be able to play it so we have to design the game for people with shit hardware.

PS3 MASTER RACE!

Modders have proven that open cities are possible on the PC. I've used the open city mod and it works fine, no noticeable slowdown as you approach a city.

Isn't the PS3 less powerful than the Xbox 360?

[miauw62]

Open cities seems nice tough. Especially since the only cities that I like are walled in. (Altough that's not saying much, as most of the cities are walled). The cities I like are Thieves-Guild-Place-I-Forgot-What-It-Is-Called and Whiterun.


And really? Isn't it like, more recent and more powerful?

[forsaken1111]

Riften is the one you're not remembering.

And I personally really liked solitude and windhelm the most.

it has 256 MB of RAM and a 7-core processor that most games don't use.

[Tellemurius]

The Cell Processor technically 1 PPE core for general processing and  the others 6 SPE are for floating point executions that are insanely powerful,the PS3 Cell has 7 SPEs with 6 available for development, the Xenon in 360 is a triple core PPE.


edit: in truth the PS3 is more powerful than the 360 but the reason why it sucks cause there isn't enough ram in the system (ignoring the fact that its a bitch to program). For what ever reason they decided to put in 512mb of ram and split it in half for the cpu and the gpu.

[forsaken1111]

Computers are only as good as their worst part. Consoles aren't an exception to that rule.

Difference being that you can replace that worst part in a PC, upgrading its performance.

Hell, there was already open cities with Morrowind.

Now the reason they can't make open houses is that it wouldn't fit 

[Sergius]

Yeah, houses were larger in the inside since Daggerfall.

But cities, they literally copied pasted the whole terrain and outer walls and whatever to the other map. In fact, they leave most of the larger architecture in the Overworld so that you can see houses from atop a mountain or something.

That is not good enough, what if I want to jump over the walls with high enough jump skill as in Morrowind?
Or what if I have a mod which enables me to fly?

[Slayerhero90]

I want to see a realistically large gameworld where it takes real-life weeks to travel from one city to the next on foot. Where horses have more value.

[Urist McScoopbeard]

TES will probably get there one day, infact you could probably gen a big enough map, the problem is filling it with stuff.

Well, I read somewhere that Arena did that

And the Witcher 3? I think it was 3 is planned to have world larger than Skyrim's.
