Five Reasons To Be Excited For Fallout 4

Stu at Sushimonster85 writes 'Unlike the majority of studios, Bethesda tend to wait till a game is almost finished before unveiling it to the world, meaning that rather than the standard year – 18 month wait before reveal and release, we have a more concise 5 months. I imagine we won’t see much more in the way of gameplay until a week or two before release now. Though the big E3 reveal has given us plenty to get excited about. Here we detail the aspects of Fallout 4 we’re most looking forward too come November 10th.'

like i would care about emulating a 7 years old game when i can play Fallout4 instead, lol.

at this point you shouldve already completed/played Fallout 3 and new vegas anyway.

ScorpiusX3127d ago

Fine you don't care , but I care cause its an extra incentive for me to buy the game and BC offers me a chance to play the games I want to play without having to own a 360 again.

Army_of_Darkness3127d ago (Edited 3127d ago )

Love how some of these xboner's pretend too act more excited about last gens fallout 3 than this year's way better looking in every way fallout 4 just too try and big up bc....

Personally, I'm excited for fallout 4 because it looks very promising and much improved from the previous ones which were pretty buggy.

yellowgerbil3127d ago

I'm a sony fanboy but yeah it is cool that you guys get that. Luckily I got the Anthology collection, and am playing my very first game on PC (fallout 1) Fallout 1 is amazing, didn't think I'd like it but it is outright good on its own.
Can't wait for Fallout 4 regardless.

Ocsta3127d ago

Really dude? REALLY? LAAAAAAAAAAME.

Aaroncls73127d ago

How about one implicit reason?

...it's Fallout 4.

NukaCola3127d ago

Weak article.

I am more interested in the new interface and that your S.P.E.C.I.A.L stats are now your perk tree. I wonder now that they followed Skyrim's model, if you won't find perks like you could in FO3 (ie stabbing the Oasis tree and sap giving you bark like skin or Wasteland Survival Guide quest giving you heeling bones through radiation, etc).

Power armor is whatever, base building is ok but I wont go crazy for it. I just want to get list in the world. The extras are awesome but I miss Fallout and that is why I am getting it.

Fallout 4's 'next gen' update is over 14 gigs, breaks modded saves, & doesn't change much at all

We were expecting problems with mod support, but there are a lot of other issues.

isarai22h ago

Wow what the actual hell 🤣🤣🤣

just_looken22h ago

This is why you get the GOG version on gog you can select the version of the game to download.

On pc fallout 4 fallout new vegas and skyrim are all broken on steam because they all got the same "next gen" update.

Skyrim dec 2023
https://www.pcgamer.com/sky...

Can not find new vegas but anyone that modded it knows the script extender there was also broken

Valkyrye20h ago

Not accidental, they want modders to stop modding their older games to force them to mod Shitfield.

just_looken19h ago

There doing the same on starfield with a mods store and blocking mods

There goal is like blizzard and what they did with fallout 76 you make mods they can sell and you become a slave.

On skyrim they have "trusted" mod devs now basically a badge that lets your mod on the store you get a crumb of the sale when someone buys it.

GamerRN2h ago

The mods aren't broken, just modded saves

Michiel19892h ago

@gamerRN shhhh don't tell them, if you do they can't mindlessly hate a company when they're so uninformed anymore

MaximusTKG1h ago

My modded save is working fine. Perhaps it’s not a blanket issue.

Inverno17h ago

lol to the disagrees, the last Skyrim update broke mods too. They've been trying to kill mods to monetize them in creation club for years, it's not a stretch that they purposely put out patches just to break free mods.

porkChop15h ago

The disagrees are from people who have common sense. They aren't trying to kill mods. Most mods for any game will break with a new update because they rely on files/code that have been changed. This isn't new. Even with Bethesda this would happen way before the creation club. Mod support is literally one of the things that got Bethesda to where they are, and they're one of the only devs that releases comprehensive mod tools for each of their games.

Sirch5h ago

This is business 101.

These are massive companies who are here to make money, not please us gamers. They will charge whatever the market will bare, and will monetize everything they can until gamers stop buying.

People need to wake up and smell the capitalism that has come to gaming. They aren’t here for us any more, they are here for their profits.

Chocoburger16h ago

Over 14 GBs and doesn't change much at all? What? Taking up that much drive space for a pathetic 'remastering' is shameful.

Par for Bethesda.

Aussiesummer15h ago

It's not a remaster, it's a next gen update.

GamerRN2h ago

It actually bumps the settings up to ultra, 1440p 60fps. Added some new content. And it's free. That's a great upgrade to me...

badz14915h ago

LOL people are actually expecting massive improvements or something? From Bethesda?? the same people who released Skyrim multiple times and the all look like shit? THAT Bethesda? are people for real?

Profchaos14h ago(Edited 14h ago)

The ps5 version doesn't change a ton but from my small playtime it's enough to make me want to replay it just to have it running at 60.

A side note to this my PS4 version no longer boots after it's "update" so I guess that's what it feels like to own a Bethesda game on PC

1nsomniac2h ago

My ps4 version boots fine after the update. It flashed up some long message about the ps5 version when I got in to the game menu but as soon as it appeared the message disappeared so I couldn’t read it. But the game loaded in and I was able to play.

Bethesda Looking Into PlayStation Plus Subscribers Not Being Able to Upgrade Fallout 4

Bethesda Customer Support Manager confirmed they're looking into Fallout 4 not being offered to those who redeemed via PlayStation Plus for free.

Why would anyone downvote this? Don't be silly. This is great news. Thanks for sharing, darthv72.

MWeaver58921h ago

I think it's because the main question for many was whether or not the PlayStation Plus Collection version would support the upgrade. To me it seems obvious the PlayStation Plus Extra version would, though it is nice to see confirmation it will.

That said, Bethesda highlighting the PlayStation Plus Extra version low-key confirms they do not plan on upgrading the other version given to players. Naturally some people are pissed, as even the in-game phrasing says "free for all players."

VenomUK20h ago

@MWeaver589 Exactly this point, it was advertised as free for everyone.

VincentVanBro19h ago(Edited 19h ago)

It’s just a lame solution to the problem, even if it is a solution. The comment shouldn’t be downvoted though.

Christopher19h ago

I mean, it's at least something. It's 'good' news compared to the alternative. Not darth's fault even.

Also, I highly believe this will get fixed. PR nightmare if they don't since the PS store doesn't differentiate/have different text for those with or without the PS+/PS Collection version.

Is this your first time here?! And when you question the downvotes you get downvoted - I don't make the rules but that's the rules!

Even though I claimed the PS Plus version, I still have my physical GOTY PS4 edition and was able to get my PS5 upgrade a little earlier today. Physical media FTW lol. Hopefully it won't be too long before the PS Plus owners also get to upgrade their copies.

JackBNimble20h ago

My digital version works just fine , what's your point?

raWfodog19h ago

My point is that even though I claimed the digital version via my PS+ Essential sub, I was still able to upgrade to the PS5 version using my PS4 GOTY physical version that I bought years ago. Otherwise I would have had to wait for the fix to be released, however long that will take. Isn’t that what the article was about?

JackBNimble14h ago(Edited 14h ago)

No, you claimed an upgrade that everyone with the physical or digital license can other then ps+ extra .
And what you hold is nothing more then a physical license.

And the article is talking about people with ps+extra who didn't own the game previously to it going on ps+ .

I bought the game years ago to ... digitally, my whole point was to your statement " physical media Ftw" . So what does physical have to do with anything?

k2d8h ago

Should have looked into the 75% deal before the update, but I just assumed I owned it. Thankfully I found the physical disc, ha...

blacktiger17h ago

I expect this and also no releasing on next ps console. Pretty simple. Please don't be suprise

purple1017h ago(Edited 7h ago)

More like not releasing on next Xbox, all games sell better on ps due to 1 more consoles in the wild, &, 2 ps players buy more games. The fallout games take a long time to make I assume, probably want to make a good profit on that development time

Literally yesterday “Chairman And CEO Microsoft Satya Nadella:

"We committed to meeting players where they are by brining great games to more people on more devices."

anast1h ago

They don't need to. They have shill game writers trying to point people to the $35 version...yeah, let that sink in.
