i waited seven long years for this game,loving every second...happy it's here at last.

PS4XBOXONEPC3082d ago

i did,but it wasn't the same..i liked it but liked the setting for 3 better

Pintheshadows3082d ago

I love it when the physics go wrong. I watched a box tumbling end over end at high speed in a basement last night. Very entertaining.

Ocsta3082d ago

Every second is a blast. Im playing right now... typing this from the toilet :P

Chaosdreams3082d ago

Haven't picked up f4 yet. Can you still drink from toilets to quench le thirst?

Yui_Suzumiya3082d ago

Alot of them are broken and have no visible water but some do so yes :3

cyber_daemonx3082d ago

Agreed. Game is awesome, just haven't had much chance to play it yet. Also got Divinity and Wasteland 2 on the go plus Bloodborne expansion next week.

Need more time.

SlightlyRetarted3082d ago

I'm having a weird experience with Fallout 4. First 30 hours was good, then i started to get really pissy about horrible dialogue wheel, bad copy/paste faction missions, overall poor quest desing and new leveling system (your SPECIAL's don't matter, you can have everything in the game pretty much). Then i dropped doing faction missions and started going forward with main quest line. Suddenly really good and fun quests started popping. Then i gave base crafting a chance and it's a ton of fun. Most of my money now is going towards buying shipments of wood and steel etc. Now i'm loving it as it is.
I like New Vegas more, but Fallout 4 is different kind of good.

Yui_Suzumiya3082d ago

Yeah my only true irk so far is the quests for the minutemen settlements and brotherhood of steel constantly repeating. Should be more like Fallout 3 in that aspect where once you're done then you're done. I understand gathering certain items for caps but the whole settlement saving quests are bugging me.

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.

isarai1d 2h ago

Wow what the actual hell 🤣🤣🤣

just_looken1d 1h 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

Valkyrye1d ago

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

just_looken22h 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.

GamerRN6h ago

The mods aren't broken, just modded saves

Michiel19895h ago

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

MaximusTKG4h ago

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

Inverno20h 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.

porkChop19h 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.

Sirch9h 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.

Armaggedon43m ago

Why do we keep bringing starfield into this. Purge the wrongful hate from yourself

Chocoburger20h 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.

Aussiesummer19h ago

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

GamerRN6h 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...

badz14918h 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?

Profchaos18h ago(Edited 18h 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

1nsomniac6h 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

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

MWeaver5891d 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."

VenomUK23h ago

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

VincentVanBro22h ago(Edited 22h ago)

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

Christopher22h 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.

JackBNimble23h ago

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

raWfodog23h 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?

JackBNimble17h ago(Edited 17h 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?

k2d12h 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...

blacktiger21h ago

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

purple10110h ago(Edited 10h 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."

anast4h ago

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