Hi Everyone... Big discussion on the official forums for those that dont frequent there. Bunch of new screens from a russian preview site.

I hope its ok to just include the link to the forums there... that way if they get pulled by the mods there I know they werent legit and the links here will die at the same time. Pretty confident on this set though since they are on their third full thread.

Edit : I removed the link since one of the mods on The official site did come out and say these were illegal... Sorry... I was surprised they took so long to come out with that statement. The thread on the official forums is still there, not sure when or if they will remove it.

News that just got in.

QUOTE(kathode)
In the past couple days, an unfinished build of Oblivion was leaked to a Russian gaming site. You may have seen screenshots and information about this build online. The site in question was not authorized in any way to post the information that it did. The build in question was not in any way intended to be used for the purposes of demoing the game.

The screenshots that got posted clearly show that the game was not properly configured by whoever was playing. The ini file alone contains over 300 settings that can be used to customize the visuals and performance of the game, and we tweak and test and change these settings daily. Because the build they are using was not one that we locked away for the specific purposes of demonstration, the likelyhood that any number of those options are incorrectly configured is very high. This can result in any manner of aberrant behavior from the game including improper visuals and reduced performance.

The upshot is that we feel the quality of the screenshots released is very far from the final game. This combined with the fact that the they are completely unauthorized by anyone representing Bethesda to publish screenshots or info means that we have to shut down threads relating to this leak.

Hopefully soon, as we get closer to release, you will see legit sites posting previews based on actual preview builds of the final game.


In other words, *click*
