Golfing with Bears (sick, but no spoilers..)

Post by jdougan1 »

I am wondering if anyone else has developed this sick habit....

The realistic physics in Oblivion maes for some sick mistreatment of dead bodies. I particularly like using a fireball to send the bodies flying. For whatever reason, bears seem particularly ripe for abuse. Perhaps it is their body-to-mass ratio, but they fly really well.

Bear Golf involves taking a dead bear and attempting to move the carcass to a particular location using nothing but fireball spells. Count how many strokes it takes you to get there....

A really challenging thing to do is akin to skeet shooting. You use the first fireball to get the bear aloft, and try to hit it, mid-air, with a second fireball before it hits the ground. THis is REALLY difficult - I have only managed to do it once...

Anyone else have this sick habit?

You can "roleplay" a barfight aftermath by blasting fireballs at all the tables... sends lots of clutter flying :D

The fun thing to do if you kill something on top of a hill, drain your speed to around ten, push the body until its starts to roll of its on accord, and then race it down the hill, no jumping, thats cheating.

Oblivion has.. odd physics, but they work well enough in fights I suppose. Heh, it would be cool to have some kind of (mini)golf areas in all of the major towns. :laugh:

ahem, anyone play "doll" with the fire atronach(sp?) or the, ahem, female Bandits/Marauders?:mischief:

or play "The Dead posers"? There were once I sneak shot a bandit in a cave with "Yawn" in it's name, and that guy end up falling dead in a nice "yawning" pose....too bad I don't have the print screen function activated.
