Sacremas Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 For E3's Critics Best of Show Fallout 4 has the following nominations (still no finals yet) Best of Show Best Console Game Best PC Game Best RPG These are from the games made playable to the judges. Expect Star Wars Battlefront to steal a lot of that however. No freaking wonder. That will probably be the first online multiplayer shooter I play a lot. That's a multiplayer demo, and ALL of those units around there, from the ground troops to AT-AT to turrets to to TIE-Fighters to Darth Vader could be another player.
afa Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 Don't buy into E3 best of X hype... They are less useful for consumer, but more useful for developers to test if they are on the right track, serve as feed back, and occasional tie breaker for what they are doing. Editing art asset on xbox and ps4 shouldn't be a huge deal, it really isn't a "new" concept. They already exist. Just look for Soul Calibur and older Dead of Alive "mods" on console. They are dubious in nature so aren't that mainstream.
RitualClarity Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 I am also a bit apprehensive with that xbox modding scene. Is it a separate modding process, part of the same process, and what changes does it bring to the modding scene. Does it make it easier, harder. How much can be modded into the game. Can we say get a version of Sexout there? Yea. There are lots of answers that need to be answered and we just have to wait even after the game has been released for these bits of info. LOl.. you know what we need todo as as community. Get one of these free to use engines like Crytec etc and mod the shit out of it and create our own wasteland.. . Then all the artist here can contribute to world objects, bodies etc.LOL> NO need to worry what Besthesda is doing for their next game.

I have outfits that I've never uploaded or even shown screenshots of.

That reminds me.. when this gets released and if you get it Kendo Let me know if you don't need to change any of the outfits... That will tell me Fallout 4 is great because there hasn't been a game that Bethesda made it seems that you can't leave those outfits alone.. . You remind me of a being I once new. Like him. your outfits are in excellent taste.. . LOL On a serious note. I can't watch the promo videos anymore. Each time I see it makes me want to get it more. From shrug to gota get it.. Dangerous stuff. I need to wait until actual game footage from reviewers and players get a chance to get their hands on it. I may just have to break my hard-fast rule of not getting new games at full price. If it can give me reasonable regular game play..It might be worth it. I played over 500 hours on Fallout 3 console and that wasn't even with the DLCs. Fallout 3 was the game that got me from console to PC permanently..
Kendo 2 Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 @Mogie You raise an interesting question; how will PC mods be converted to consoles? Will Bethesda.net do it for us with some sort of on-line automated converter? I don't see how a PC mod will make the trip to consoles, since I seriously doubt MS or Sony is just going to hand out a utility that allows modders to do it on their own...unsupervised. "Sure dude! Gimme your fucking software so I can hack the shit out of your console games!" What would be really sweet if it was a GECK function. "Upload to Bethesda.net?" yes or no "Convert to XboxOne format?" yes or no "Convert to PlayStation4 format?" yes or no "Totally pirate our software?" yes or no
Kaz Aanh Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 I wonder what kind body mods we will get first. There will be a vanilla nude mod for sure but Ports from Skyrim? Or maybe Type-series reborn? Or maybe even some new ones. Who will be the first to claim the crown of the body-types and carve the path for the others ( like cbbe did for skyrim )
Mephykuns Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 Yo hardcore mode for fallout 4 or nah? At least make it somewhat challenging sheesh, the only threatening enemies were deathclaws and those damn butterflies jesus fuck. Hopely the melee/unarmed combat is better than skyrims
RitualClarity Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 I'm still on Windows 7. I hope FO4 works with it. Shouldn't have any problems with Windows 7....."Shouldn't" I agree. Windows 7 is still "supported" I believe by Microsoft so any of the framework change that would be needed should be included in updates. AS for the issue with Skyrim I believe its a momentary glitch. I doubt one of the popular "current" games having that much trouble will be ignored. M$ wants everyone to update even giving free updates for a year so they are invested in this. I watched a close demo of Windows 10 and Intel and the spokesperson had problems with some of the GUI as well. This was only a few days ago. It was a live teleconference. How embarrassing. He did state his was still a beta and that they were working on the solution. They do seem to be really working on appealing to the masses and becoming even more "Mac like" than ever before. Now they even have a "10" operating system.. lol.
testsubject013 Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 new info there will be about a dozen companions to accompany you. you can only have one at a time following you. preston garvey, codsworth, dogmeat, and piper. you can romance them human ones regardless of player gender so you can be gay or a lesbian if you want to be. enemy factions will fight each other instead of teaming up to kick the players ass. feral ghoul enemy will climb through windows to get to the player
Sacremas Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 You can't romance the dog?!? Goddamn Bethesda trampling on my rights! Actually I'm more interested in if Codsworth has a vibrate function.
testsubject013 Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 codsworth was missing a hand so who knows what you could replace it with
Sacremas Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 Mods will fix follower number before even the GECK comes out. And Codworth had tentacles didn't he? I see so many possibilities there for exotic attachments...
testsubject013 Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 maybe we could change codsworth name to cocksworth
Guest endgameaddiction Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 You mean Lydia's tits? Yeah, those things certainly get in the way, but I don't mind. The only actual time I can't stand being jammed by NPCs is going to Saarthal and all the students go in and what's his face. When you zone in everyone is squishing up against each other touching asses like there's no tomorrow and no one wants to move... Very few times where they do but I have to tcl.
Sacremas Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 For Sarthaal I just sprint and knock everyone aside until I get close enough to Tolfdir to make him move. I have actually been forced to use console to move some of the fuckers behind me however. For companions I use AFT and set "Followers keep their distance" and disable sandboxing (otherwise they keep crowding my crafting stations). I use very few companions that can't be managed this way. I love Anna's NPCs for example but I can't use them because not only do they ALWAYS get in the way and block doors, if you bump into them they make comments like "Excuse you!" I think before I got AFT I'd used Fus Roh Dah on Lydia more often than anything else. My favorite companion ever may however be Arissa, due to her astonishingly beautiful dialoge line the first time I bumped into her. "Oh, let me get out of your way." A tear rolled down my cheek then.
Captain Cobra Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 The song Dre Day said it best: "So if you want to keep poppin that shit and get your mother fuckin cranium cracked, step right up!"
Kendo 2 Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 Well I hope they have better dialog writers for FO4 then they did for Skyrim, damn near every single NPC in skyrim is an arrogant, sarcastic, asshole, adults and children alike. A world like FO4 would be like the Wild West. Disrespecting someone was good way to get shot. I hope FO4 dialogue is better than Skyrim. A different dev team worked on it so there might be less rudeness by NPCs, but I doubt it.
RitualClarity Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 Reminds me of when Windows was first announced by Bill Gates and the giant screen they had showed a BSOD I think Microsoft is accustomed to "Embarrassment" when it comes to Windows not working properly. I just did a complete uninstall and Reinstall of steam and Skyrim, same crap error. unless steams downloadable "Skyrim" is corrupted I may try a hard copy install with steam and Skyrim uninstalled. seems weird Win10 changed that much in just a couple builds. I ran a program called "Dependency Walker" and the problem seems to be TESV.exe can't open a shitload of dll's because it can't find them it's looking for x86 and getting x64 dll's even though it is installed under the program files (x86) directories within steam. so I assume win 10 has changed it's structure quite a bit within a couple of builds even though it looks pretty much the same. I was informed that there are major changes occurring on even this version (not to mention massive changes from Win7 to 8.0 to 8.1. ). They are restructuring the core of windows and that is bound to screw up some older games. (didn't expect it to effect Skyrim.. ) anyway. Something that is new and still supported by the developer should get addressed in Windows on or around release. Like I said.. I believe that Microsoft is actually starting to listen and is concerned with their platform. For the first time since it became the "main OS" of the masses it feels threatened and on top of that.. It seriously wants, and needs to branch out to the new technologies like Tablets and phones with a single unified experience. Much like apple and even some forms of Linux is doing right now. They screwed off and missed opportunities before with search engines, web browsers and whatnot but they even admit the "writing is on the wall" when it comes to the "single unified experience" movement.
RitualClarity Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 Well I doubt they read all feedback but I've been pretty vocal about what has and hasn't worked for my setup so maybe LOL. It's weird because Just Cause 2 is older, FONV is older they both work fine as does portal. Skyrim is the only game so far that hasn't worked on Win 10. so if there is a restructure of windows it may very well be the cause. The weirdest part is not only does the game not work (Steam or DVD) but the DVD is unreadable, on Windows 10 it won't even recognize the DVD in the drive. Windows 7 sees it just fine. Same computer dual boot. Yep. sounds like something with the infrastructure was glitched. Doubt it will remain. Pretty confident that type error will be fixed. As for older games working the windows files it uses might not have been touched, Might have been already changed and fixed the way they wanted it for Win7 and just kept it the same. Each installer is a bit different from my understanding and depends on what it is calling from windows for it to work. Hopefully on release it has it's full array of driver and peripheral support. Doubt it. It might take a few months to settle into what it should be. However most of the major issues should be fixed within a few weeks of release. I'm really liking Windows 10 and a lot of things we've never seen in an operating system are being introduced. this latest build has a printable 3D maker application. not sure if it is for 3D printers or if it's just a way of printing 3D objects you make. sort of like having a print function in 3dsmax without the need to have Max. Check out Intel technology for windows 10. It has a camera that can see in 3 d and create photos and change the focus of a photo on the fly. (check out HP Sprout for example of Win10 ). You can even create 3d avatars of yourself remove the background and have you stream on the page while you record a game play.. Nice. I think Windows 10 is going to tie heavily into the cross platform PC/XBone game mod/stream/playability. They're actually going the direction of free os as an "upgrade" not an OS for sale for tax reasons. Also for security and support issues. It is far easier to support one OS or at least close to one OS as opposed to 3 or more. More integration like Mac. Their hoping to make it up in the app end because hey, apps are the big thing. why I don't know but they really are. so apps will work across the platforms from what I understand. instead of windows 7's gadgets you now have apps. but the main thing is What windows 8 and 8.1 screwed up windows 10 gets rid of all together. as you say a "restructuring". Yes. Apps which can make task easier to do and cross platform to a degree (likely to increase in the future) is one way to both minimize the cost of development and maximize the profiles (selling rights to Windows Software page) while mainting standards of quality etc (like Apple has now) Hopefully going forward shortly we won't have to worry about upgrades or conflicts as MS will handle them going forward until the computer is so out of date it cannot update anymore. (like Apple).. This will help the future Fallout 4 compatibility going forward for some years to come as well as other games as well. Much liek the change from 16 bit to 32 bit and now to 64 bit there are massive changes that need to be addressed. I am assuming that all the OS going forward will be 64 bit only.
RitualClarity Posted July 26, 2015 Posted July 26, 2015 I'd agree except 64bit capable hardware has been out for a very long time. Most of the hardware that is capable or qualified to run on Windows 10 (win 8.1 as well) is qualified for 64bit. Has been for quite awhile. The direct x9 option is something different. many still use direct x 9 because they are trying to emulate their games. Having the game run 64bit on a 64 bit OS means that we won't have those graphic limitations we had before with skyrim and only being able to have 3gb or somewhere around there before crashing or having to use injectors and all sorts of painful configurations to get around it. Tech is moving to 4k and that requires large amounts of memory that cannot be supplied by 32bit. It is a must. having two separate versions of various backbone programs is a costly venture for MS. Doubt they will continue for the long term. They will cut that out just like they cut out the 16 bit installer support in previous OS. I for one would love the possibility of a 64bit capable engine for FO4. NO more running up to the very edge of the limitations of a 32 bit anymore.
