Ah okay, thanks for clearing that out!

I use motioninjoy emulator and make my Dualshock3 emulate XBOX controller, this has made my Dualshock3 work perfectly in the few games that I tried it.
Essentially if the game supports XBOX controller you should get Dualshock3 work as well with minimal effort.

The game’s Radiant quest system randomly generates new tasks based on your progress in the game. An innkeeper might ask you to hunt for bandits in a place you haven’t found yet, or an aspiring alchemist could request that you collect 10 undiscovered flowers for his work. Howard claims that the options are endless.
In addition to these minor tasks, Howard says you’ll be able to do extra work for each of the game’s factions, like the Dark Brotherhood and the Thieves Guild. Once you complete the scripted quest lines for each group, you can go to their respective hubs and pick up randomly generated missions to steal gems or assassinate shopkeepers across Skyrim’s massive world.
just in case you didn't read the article.
if its gonna be randomly generated it means there will be no unique dialogues, no voice acting, no effect on the gameworld?

Read the last two pages of the thread, some people have talked about doing VPN stuff. I don't know the details or I'd be more help.
If you don't do any Australian network stuff, you'll have to wait until the 11th, yes.

We all did it for Battlefield 3 and it worked like a charm. I'd say half of the people reading the TL thread were all playing 12 hours before the NA release date thanks to almost this exact method.

I'm wondering if we could just use a netherlands vpn and play now...

Did you just leave the VPN connection up in order to stay online on steam?

People actually use VPN's? What is this, 2000?
Just get an Australian IP/Port, connect to it manually real fast, and decrypt the files and go on your merry way.

Steam won't allow something that simple, I've tried. You need an actual vpn for it to work.

There will be voice acting, I don't see why not. As far as unique dialogues goes it might get repetitive when doing similar missions. I think there will be a minimal effect on the game world. For instance if you kill a shopkeeper he will be dead forever and someone in his 'family' will take over the shop.

So my game got shipped but the tracking ID they gave me is invalid. I get so annoyed when shit like this happens. Now i have no idea if the package got lost or is still on its way.

To me it sounds like the purpose is to get you to go places you haven't been yet by randomly generating a quest to take you there. The actual "act" of murdering X bandit or stealing from Y shopkeeper will probably be trivial and not change the world a whole lot, but exploring the bandit's cave and finding sweet treasure that you might not have found otherwise just by stumbling on it certainly improves your character.
Plus, no one is forcing you to do them.

Only sc2 tops the hype that I feel for this game.

Make that 3 days sooner from Europe ^^
But I'm not going to bother for this though, it will only be 8 hours sooner anyway, and I already planned it all out - go to sleep straight after getting home from work, then wake up at 2AM and play until 7AM when I have to get back to work  and after that I have the entire week off so those 8 hours don't seem that big of a deal.
