Possibly out in late 2010, ES V will be available on 360/PS4/PC. With Fallout 3 under Bethesda's belt ... How much better will ES V be than IV? Think some of the PC features (like mods and construction kit) will come to consoles this time -- at least in some form? Will they ever? If there's an ES 6, it will be for next-gen systems. How much better will ES 6 be than 5?

Well considering the garbage pile that was ES4, it should be much better. Unless they screw up again.

Perhaps I was just pointing out how pointless the thread was rather than trying to be funny?

I dunno, I hated Oblivion... but considering how much I love Fallout 3, I'm kinda looking forward to ES5.

So long as it evolves into some kind of optional co-op play, non-retarded ai, better animations, but retains some of the things that made oblivion awesome like the exploration of the vast map.

Where are you getting the info from? Oblivion was awesome, this one is apparently set in skyrim.

well if Elder Scrolls IV is the "advancement" over ESIII it will be worse tbh :s

It will likely be better tho ^^ they tryied some things out in Fallout 3, which may be useful in an ES game.

I am a bit cautious tho, I think it might impress me slightly and if I had to give it a number, I will guess 10-20% improvement (if it is possible to say it that way)

I hope they straighten out the chr advancement, and skip autoleveling.

Also I hope they work ALOT on animations, and the make it fluid.

Oh and hire some writers for the love of G*d, ehen if you have some allready, a change of pace wouldnt hurt.

That's just a rumor. It's most likely going to be set in Akavir.

Hey, if Gamespot just used your score, we could actually get a rating on time!

I actually expect it to be worse, just like Oblivion was worse in many ways (better in some) than Morrowind.

Bethesda has been on a process of continuous refinement of the TES series since it first came out, they started with an insanely detailed open world RPG and are cutting it down to reduce the costs while broadening the audience. Generated landscapes, blunt axes, cut & paste models/animations and so on are all examples in Oblivion of measures taken to reduce costs.

I highly doubt they will add anything in TES V, they are much more likely to take stuff out or combine skills.

Hopefully they make some improvements to the engine they used for both ES IV and Fallout 3, it makes purdy graphics, but the physics can be extremely wonky at times. Also as long as there's more than 5 voices for voiceovers I'm in.

Id like to see more customisation in your armour, more varied ruins and caes, and better voice acting.

On the graphical front I would like to see a better draw distance for things like grass and creatures for long range archery as i love hunting things like deer.

Ill love it though, I put around 300 hours into oblivion.

Oh and ps4? lol wut???

The animations in Bethesda games are horrible. Utterly broken. They shouldn't allow you to play in a TPV (Third-Person View) if their animations are crap.

Fix the animations.

Atleast 2 player co-op, and better animations, that's all I need and it'll be first day buy.

Well, they should be rolling in money after Elder Scrolls IV and Fallout 3, so we should at least get a technically refined product, even if it's definitely not going to be as deep as Morrowind was. If they continue along the same lines as Fallout 3 at atleast TRYING to be an RPG, and manage to work out a combat system that doesn't suck horribly, then it'll be a pretty good game.
