14 DAY TRIAL // Barely has The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim been released today, on November 11, 2011, and already players are uncovering a wide array of exploits or glitches, many of which have been recorded and are now available for enjoyment on YouTube.
Skyrim was expected by a huge amount of gamers from all over the world, with Bethesda trying to deliver a deep and complex role playing game that's easy to get into for gamers completely new to the franchise, while satisfying those who've played every single game from the series made by the studio.
Now, just as people are getting their copies of Skyrim, many are putting it to the test and, while the general consensus is that the game more than delivers on its promises, there are still quite a few glitches and exploits that have been uncovered by those playing on the PC.
First up, as you can see in the first video below, you can use all of the barrels or pots from the game's world and put them on the heads of various non-playable characters. The result, while extremely hilarious, can also be extremely lucrative.
As you can check out in the second video below, once you enter a store, you can use the same trick, of putting pots or buckets on the heads of the NPCs around you, and then steal everything without even sneaking around. Once the pot on top of the store owner's head falls down, however, anything you steal will be noticed.
But while these first two exploits are just for laughs, a major bug has been found, via Kotaku, where an enemy wielding a club can literally throw you into the air. As soon as you approach him, in the Secunda's Kiss region of the game's world, he attacks you by pounding his club, maneuver that sends your own character flying through the sky like a crash test dummy.
No word yet from Bethesda about these glitches but you can expect the studio to release a new patch, besides the day-one update already deployed, in the near future to ensure Skyrim players, no matter their preferred platform, will enjoy a problem-free experience.
What sort of glitches or exploits have you found throughout your adventures in the land of Skyrim? Enjoy the videos below and then share your own experiences.
