Fallout 4 Pre-Announcement Bullshit Thread [GO TO NEW THREAD]

[Athelas]

It has begun...

 

[Sordid MCA/Prosper Hybryd]

It's obvious hoax. Or imminent crap.

 

[General Maxson]

ITZ herpaderp.

 

[FeelTheRads]

Will the same team be working on it?

If so, it will blow.

Are emoticons not enough anymore?

ITZ herpaderp.

Oh god, this will end in tears.

 

[Oesophagus]

Oh god, this will end in tears.

Nah, nobody is expecting anything decent from F4. Best they can achieve is lulz and a majestic codexian LP

 

[valcik]

Perk trees were good. Could be better implemented, but yeah, I wouldn't mind seeing those brought over.

I can foresee a Fusdorah perk, guys. Brace yourself!

Bethesda parent company Zenimax has filed a trademark application for "Void Engine Powered by Id Tech," suggesting the company has created an all-new game engine. The news comes as the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One are soon to be released, though it is unclear if the new engine is related to the next-generation systems.

Might not even be related to Bethesda's games, but who knows.

So they finally admitted that Gamebryo Creation is shit and moved on to a new and better engine? Nah, I don't believe it. Too good to be true.

 

[himmy]

inb4 Beth pulls a Ubisoft on this and makes Fallout 4 turn-based isometri...I can't even troll about this with a straight face.

Can we have this emoticon but sad?

 

[Seerix]

That picture with big "74A" on it suggest that Fallout 4 will have Vault 74 in it which is either interesting or clear indication of this whole thing being a hoax because there is article on The Vault about Vault 74 which says that it was some test vault made by Bethesda for the GECK and it's unfinished Vault in New Vegas whose cellname is interestingly "Vault74A".

Fallout 4 won't be a good RPG but I'll play it nonetheless.

bro you seem to be new so i'll give you the proper codex procedure in these cases: 1) pretend like you will never touch this piece of shit, then 2) buy or pirate it on day 1, and finally 3) play the whole game and then come back to codex and bitch about how shitty it was in the appropriate 1000+ page thread

follow these steps and you will go far indeed

I see no harm in playing shit games downloaded from the Bay; the bottom line always is that you vote with your wallet.

how about the possibility that you could instead use that time to play a non-shit game downloaded from the Bay?

i know, i just blew your mind

the harm in playing shitty games downloaded from the piratebay is that you have less broadband

Why downloading a non-shit game when you can support the incline - the devs that make non-shit games? Indeed, your logic is beyond me.

Maybe....


Maybe Fallout 4 is Obsidian's secret AAA project and that's going to be the big announcement.

 

[Newfag-er]

What the problem is, is that Bethesda is practically one of the last "major" players in making single player games, that they unfortunately define as RPGs, and therefore the industry follows example, and in about 10 years (maybe it already is the case?) everybody will think RPGs are action games with a bit of stats mixed in for a "flavor".

It's not already?

The less you treat Bethesda's take on Fallout as an RPG while just accepting it as an open-world FPS, the less likely you'll suffer brain-damage inflicted from prolonged peak-nerdrage.

That is what a logical person now expect, yes

Perk trees were good. Could be better implemented, but yeah, I wouldn't mind seeing those brought over.

I'm personally not a fan of them, much prefer the fallout forumla (it's probably those pipeboy icon that goes along with perks)
Then again Vanilla Skyrim/Fallout 3 perks are shit compare to fallout 2/new vegas, with or without perk trees
Vegas already had tons of crafting, pretty decent ones too

Sadly, no. It will be developed by Bethesda and their lead retard Todd Howard - and it's gonna be shit.

 

[taxalot]

You could at least be hopeful. Wasn't Skyrim a huge improvement over everything Bethesda did in the last years ?

 

[SophosTheWise]

That probably depends on your definition of "in the last years". Over Oblivion, sure, Skyrim was an improvement. But over Morrowind?

I sincerely hope it's really Obsidian's big next gen project, but I really doubt it. Ugh, I want to be excited but I just can't.

Level scaling, no unique loot, every aspect of the game shallow and/or underdeveloped, godawful interface, even worse writing, crappy animations, boring dungeons, a fuckton of pointless FedEx quests, more bugs than in the fucking Rainforest etc., etc. In other words: NO.

 

[undecaf]

Bethesda will produce yet another pointless shitfest like skyrim. Who the fuck cares excrept the glorious Codex....

 

[Oesophagus]

I'll be surprised if F4 has numerical stats

Was still an improvement over Oblivion, had branching questlines, had NV style speech checks, better animations than the last two games they made, less level scaled enemies, giants for example, you couldn't get every single perk and max every attribute like in Oblivion. I'd say it's on par with Fallout 3 in terms of being an RPG, inferior to NV and way better than oblivion.

Like some poster said earlier, if Fallout 4 is to Skyrim what Fallout 3 was to Oblivion then we'll have a New Vegas style game at least.
