Thanks dude, the support is much appreciated. My wish consist more of just going to bethesda, but visiting my favorite studio is definitely the top of my list. I think I'll even sacrifice my dream computer if they won't give me both. :) Its funny, this topic has only been open for 3 or so days and its the highlight of the skyrim forum. I'm sorry to steal the other idea topics thunder, but I just wanted to include the community in my wish so that this community gets some more recognition from bethesda. :D

I can guarantee you that there is a CS because I have spoken to Erik West who visited Bethesda Softworks thanks to the Make A Wish Foundation. He had to sign and NDA (Non Disclosure Agreement) because of the things they showed him. I'll be going to Bethesda Softworks here in a few months thanks to the same group. I've also seen pictures of him at the studio, so I know its what he says is true. They however gave him permission to talk about the thing in common with all of their games so far, which is the construction set.

I have large diffuse b-cell lymphoma, and you have to remember that these are just suggestions that I would like to make to them to see if they would consider adding any of them. It doesn't mean that anything will be added though.

It has liquid cooling already and I'm using a set up that this review site used for my monitors just because they tested it and it worked well. I'm pretty much set with what I'm going to use.

That would make for a good quest reward in some side quest, I'll recommend it to them.

Thanks Armageddon but I've been on my treatment since october and I've seen amazing results from it, so my treatment plan won't be needing any changes.

I'm liking some of the ideas guys and thanks for the support.

The thing is I'm going to buy it through IBP so I can get the system overclocked and ready to roll.

So far we still have a pretty hefty list of suggestions, but we still have 2 months and this is only the first day. We will have a huge list.

You are a pretty active member here though, I'm sure you'd be willing to spend a 12 dollars or however much to become a premium member when they offer the beta, if I convince them to offer one. heh heh, yeah, but that would be kind of hard for the administrators to manage... they would have to script some codes I suppose... not to hard I guess.

I'll just print out this entire topic and take it with me when I go to visit the studio, I'll of course add to my list so they know the things I'd like to see and then they can view the rest of the topic and add anything that they think would be a good idea, or I can even go over it with them and tell them what else I want them to add and have them write down notes, but I can't guarantee that they will even add anything at all, but like I said, these are just going to be suggestions I'm going to make, not things that will be because I wish it. Open Beta for Premium Nexus members might be safest though :P Maybe I can land a job with Bethesda through my wish as well. And thank you whoever gave me my second Kudos!

Yeah, just in case though I will ask that they make it a point to off support for the modding community here at TES Nexus. Whether the owner of the site here wants to accept whatever they offer is up to them. And about co-op, I'm sorry but thats a big frowny face from me. I see the elder scrolls as a single player only game and thats why I believe the series is good. Once again sorry, but no.

Alright Jack, I see what you mean. I'm just going to add small things to my list from now on though, things that really catch my eye. I will ask them to look at my thread as well though so that they can see what their fans want.

Its just an everybody in general thing. And I mean it may be too much to ask because you have to realize they are 2 years into development, so they likely have a lot of the game put together. They are probably working with making Skyrim as we speak and I won't be going until after my treatment is finished, and thats not for a couple of months. I'm just getting things done sooner and giving everybody plenty of time to suggest ideas. I still also have to tell Make A Wish Foundation my wish. I know they can get anything, and I'm sure they will have no problem getting me a tour and a meeting with the developers, but there is always the possibility that Bethesda may say no and refuse, but thats highly unlikely because then I could say that they refused to make my wish come true and then that would be bad publicity on the news ;) not that I would be that unforgiving. So as far as I am concerned, I am going to get my tour because Make A Wish Foundation is just that good.

I've added mounted combat because its something simple and wouldn't be too much to ask of them. Much of what ya asked is a bit too general, already been verified as one of their goals or is just too much too ask. I'll be sure to take a look tomorrow at your stuff again and see what else I might add, I'm a bit tired now and am going to bed, and hopefully I will see more ideas here soon :D

Alright trap, your ideas were added :)

Thanks for the great idea Calliton, I would never have remembered that from morrowind :P

Heh heh, yeah... maybe they will give me a kudos or two :P Fishy Sticks it shall be then! :D

Thats very kind of you darkninja, but I've seen some brilliant ideas out there that others have thought of and I like to see the creativity this community has :D

Because I have cancer, the Make A Wish Foundation is giving me a wish. I am choosing part of my wish to visit Bethesda Studios for a tour, to meet the developers and to get a behind the scenes of TES:V Skyrim. I then thought that perhaps I should also make part of my wish to be able to have my suggestions added to the game. So what I am thinking is that I will take suggestions from everybody here and I will add things that I like to my list here and then I will run the list by the developers at Bethesda Studios. So please, suggest away! **Update** Looks like my trip won't be happening until november after the game is released. Bethesda rejected the three dates I gave to make a wish foundation and instead said I could come after they release the game. Its a bummer, but they aren't likely to budge on when I can come. My List: Polearms Crossbows Throwing Knives/Axes Live Trade /Travel Across The Roads Closed/Full Helms Medium Armor Differentiation between short and long blade and blunt and axe Active and Inactive Weapons When Shield Is Not In Use Its On Characters Back Mounted Combat Multi-faceted and layered clothing Flying Mounts Dark Elf Voices From Morrowind Decapitation Overlays on characters Construction Set Nexus Modding Community Support Advanced Customization for Mount Armor Werewolves I just read up on much of the changes made from oblivion to skyrim that have been announced and it looks awesome.

If I see the return of polearms, closed helmets, crossbows and accurate beast races... then I'll be happy.

I don't think it will take any getting used to. It didn't take any getting used to from TES:III to TES:IV for me, it actually was easier to get started. I don't think it will suck either. It can't be any worse than TES:IV at least, especially since it has dragons in it.

Honestly, Oblivion was very small compared to what it really would be in the lore map I'm assuming. I would guess that bethesda will attempt to make Skyrim on an accurate scale. I'm sure cities will be much larger and the population will increase by a lot as well.

Ok, after about an hour of researching and browsing the market I've found some better options for the monitors to maximize the eyefinity feature of my GPUs that I have chosen. It will be awesome. Only thing I have really changed with the important hardware is the case and you can see what I have chosen below. 1 x Case ( Antec DF-85 Full Tower Gaming Case - Black ) 1 x Case Lighting ( Sleeved LED Case Lighting - Red ) 1 x iBUYPOWER Labs - Noise Reduction ( Advanced - iBUYPOWER Harmony SRS Sound Reduction System ) 1 x iBUYPOWER Labs - Internal Expansion ( [6-Port] NZXT Internal USB Expansion System + Bluetooth Module ) 1 x Processor ( Intel® Core™ i7 980X Processor Extreme Edition (6x 3.33GHz/12MB L3 Cache) ) 1 x iBUYPOWER PowerDrive ( PowerDrive Level 2 - Up to 20% Overclocking ) 1 x Processor Cooling ( Asetek 550LC Liquid CPU Cooling System (Intel) - Enermax Dual Silent High Performance Fan Upgrade (Push-Pull Airflow) ) 1 x Memory ( 24 GB [4 GB X6] DDR3-1600 - Corsair or Major Brand ) 1 x Video Card ( ATI Radeon HD 5970 - 2GB - CrossFire Mode (Dual Cards) ) 1 x Video Card Brand ( Major Brand Powered by ATI or NVIDIA ) 1 x Free Stuff ( [Free Game Download] - Civilization V - Free with Purchase of Intel Core i7 System ) 1 x Free Stuff ( [Free Game Voucher] - Star Trek Online - Free with Purchase of Selected Intel Core i5/i7 Processor or SSD ) 1 x Motherboard ( [3-Way SLI] ASUS Rampage III Extreme w/ 4x PCI-E 2.0 x16 ) 1 x Motherboard USB / SATA Interface ( Motherboard default USB / SATA Interface ) 1 x Power Supply ( 1500 Watt -- SilverStone ST1500 ) 1 x Primary Hard Drive ( 256 GB ADATA S599 MLC SSD - Dual 256GB Drives (512GB Capacity) - RAID 0 High Performance ) 1 x Data Hard Drive ( 3 TB HARD DRIVE -- 64M Cache, 7200 RPM, 6.0Gb/s - Single Drive ) 1 x Optical Drive ( 24X Dual Format/Double Layer DVD±R/±RW + CD-R/RW Drive - [Lightscribe Technology] Black ) 1 x 2nd Optical Drive ( [12X Blu-Ray] Pioneer BLU-RAY Re-Writer, DVD±R/±RW Burner Combo Drive - Black ) 1 x Flash Media Reader / Writer ( 12-In-1 Internal Flash Media Card Reader/Writer - Black ) 1 x Meter Display ( NZXT Sentry LX Aluminum Fan Control, Clock, and Temperature Display ) 1 x Sound Card ( Creative Labs Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Champion Series ) 1 x Network Card ( [was: $139] Killer 2100 Gaming Network Card ) 1 x Operating System ( Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate + Office Starter 2010 (Includes basic versions of Word and Excel) - 64-bit ) 1 x Keyboard ( Logitech G19 Gaming Keyboard - Black ) 1 x Mouse ( MadCatz Cyborg R.A.T.7 5600dpi Gaming Mouse ) 1 x Mouse ( Zowie SWIFT Gaming Mouse Pad w/ Enhanced Durability and Performance ) 1 x Gaming Accessories ( Logitech G13 Advanced Gameboard ) 1 x Gaming Accessories ( Sunbeamtech Lan Party Bag ) 0 x Monitor ( None ) 0 x 2nd Monitor ( None ) 1 x Speaker System ( Logitech Z506 5.1 Surround 3D Sound Speakers + Subwoofer - Black ) 1 x External Hard Drives [uSB 3.0/2.0/eSATA] ( 3.5" External 2 TB Hard Drive - USB 3.0 / USB 2.0 ) 1 x USB Flash Drive ( Corsair 32GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive ) 1 x Wireless Network Adapter ( LINKSYS WUSB600N 802.11n Dual-Band Wireless USB Adapter ) 1 x Extras ( Network LAN Surge Protector - Assures Integrity and Stability of Data Communications + Strengthens System Immunity against Electrostatic Discharges ) 1 x Media Center Remote Control ( MS Media Center Remote Control and Receiver ) 1 x Power Protection ( Mighty Voltage Regulator - Opti-UPS SS1200-AVR ) 1 x Power Protection ( Surge Buster - Opti-UPS SBAM1060X ) 0 x Headset ( None ) 0 x Video Camera ( None ) 1 x USB Cables / Accessories ( [uSB 3.0] USB 3.0 Cable - 6 ft. ) 1 x USB Cables / Accessories ( [uSB 3.0] USB 3.0 Docking Station - Connects 2.5"/3.5" SATA HDDs to USB 3.0; features 8cm cooling fan and temperature display ) 1 x Advanced Build Options ( iBUYPOWER Specialized Advanced Packaging System - Protect your investment during transportation! ) 1 x Advanced Build Options ( Tuniq TX-2 High Performance Thermal Compound - The best interface between your CPU and the heatsinks ) 1 x Advanced Build Options ( Professional wiring for all cables inside the system tower - Achieve exceptional airflow in your chassis ) 1 x Advanced Build Options ( Professional wiring for all cables inside the system tower - Basic Pro Wiring ) 1 x Advanced Build Options ( Professional wiring for all cables inside the system tower - Advanced - Video Package (Individually Sleeved 8-pin and 6-pin PCI-E VGA Power Cabling) ) 1 x Advanced Build Options ( Professional wiring for all cables inside the system tower - Advanced - Power Package (Individually Sleeved 24-pin ATX, 8-pin CPU, and SATA Drive Power Cabling) ) 1 x Warranty ( Standard Warranty Service - Standard 3-Year Limited Warranty + Lifetime Technical Support ) 1 x Rush Service ( Rush Service Fee (not shipping fee) - No Rush Service, Ship after 1-7-2011 ) Order Seperately 6 x DellTM Professional P2210H 22” (21.5” viewable) Widescreen Flat Panel Monitor. 1 x Visidec VFS-Q 1 x Visidec VFS-DV 6 x mini-DisplayPort to DisplayPort adapter 6 x DisplayPort cables

Yes, this computer is going to be very powerful and expensive, but thankfully I do not have to pay for the computer. Make A Wish Foundation will be giving me a wish once I finish my cancer treatment, which means I get a new and very powerful computer. I can't exactly put a price on all of the parts that I have listed below, but with all of the little extras, bits and bobbles that will be coming with those parts the computer comes to a grand total of $8020. This computer will be a beast.
