I am waiting for the eventual bugfix made by the community, they tend to be better than the official ones.
This requires the Construction Set to be released, unfortunately. And the community fixes tend to happen after official patching dies down a bit, as it generally takes a while for a small team to fix a large game, and they don't want to fix things that might be fixed/changed in the next official one.

For now, a waiting game.

True, but I am patient enough to wait until all the DLC has been released, CS is more than a year old, the final official patch gets released, and I've become bored with the game itself.

Yes, I will wait.

Thats why I'm delaying my purchase until the game hits the $10 or below mark  ;)

By then the game should be patched up pretty good with the CS released and some good mods out. Then I can go into the game fresh and have a good experience right off.

Not sure if this was posted yet or not:

Really good cover of the Dovahkin song. Makes you wish it was actually in game. A little heavy on the post-production effects, but still really stirring.
good? this is amazing! truely beautifull!
thx for shareing bro.

Going back to my brawler khajit heavy armor guy idea.
i just remembered that you can GREATY upgrade the armor just as warriors upgrade their weapons. so it actualy might be doable if i focus on heavy armor and smithing/enchanting.

I've heard that smithing upgrades to armor don't count towards the bonus damage from the perk. I haven't tested it myself though.

Forth. Its mathematically impossible to quash all bugs of any program. You might be able to get it in a state, where the bugs that are left, are rare, or easily worked around, but they're still there.

I disagree
bugfreeprogram.py:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Hardly, this one is much more reliable:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Of course, it is still subject to the occasional error, but that's not something the programmer can easily fix.

i'd not exactly consider Bay12 forums a meeting place of high end top notch hardware guys.

Can any of you tell me how its running around the specified minimum reqs?
i've got a E6600 dual core running at 3ghz, 4gb ram and a Geforce 8800gt, how are my chances? :)

Your graphic card is a bit on the low end, but I would expect it to run ok on low settings. Low settings still look fine, but be sure to max out the creature draw distance, otherwise ranged combat will not work out too well.

Your processor and ram are perfectly fine, but your videocard is kinda low.

I'd say medium settings.

I'm running on 2GB ram, 2.8 GHZ one-core processor and 7600GT. And it runs quite well, for a new game, so you can safely buy it.

I'd suggest pirating it, if it works for you buy it, if not, you've saved 40 quid.
