Fallout 4 Pre-Release Discussion [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

Maybe that was the bethesder plan all along...

Late 2015 release, looks like.

 

Holy shit...

 

It's a heavily modified Old Ironsides, the USS Constitution, aka the Brit Basher, oldest ship in the U.S. Navy, home port is Boston

 

Here, have some more:

 

I see your picture,

and rise you this

 

Some things are not meant for human eyes

 

To round up the Boston stuff I noticed right away, for the benefit of our non-American (or uneducated American) comrades:

-- The plinith that looks like the Washington Monument is actually the Bunker Hill Monument, site of our first ass-kicking of the hapless Brits
-- The masted ship is the USS Constitution, aka Old Ironsides, of the U.S. Navy, home port is Boston
-- The statue of the man on the house is Paul Revere, also located in Boston
-- The gold dome is the capital building dome of the Massachusetts State House, Boston.

I did not see one Dunkin' Donuts, though. WTF

 

Oh jesus, even a fucking retard like myself went to google up FO1 and 2 way before FO3 was even a thing.

 

It's probably changed to Deathclaw Donuts or something like that in typical funny Bethesda fashion.

 

It would seem Todd has played too much Rage and not enough fallout 1.

 

Wow, totally sucks that they went the voiced main character route. I hope this isn't a permanent trend. Like every new RPG seems to have voiced main characters now. It's the worst thing for me. The character never even says anything close to the options you can choose from. It's a gigantic waste of time and money for an RPG game to do this.

 

This isn't confirmed though, right?

 

My expectations are low enough that I will probably not be terribly dissapointed (Let's be honest how many of you RAPE!RAPE!RAPE! faggots is going to play this for 100+ hours?). Hopefully Obsidian will deliver another real Fallout.

Voiced PC sucks.

 

This comment is 10 years late.

 

I'm seeing it in the notes from some of the posts. I hope it's not voiced and it's similar to Liam Neeson in Fallout: 3. I can get past a lot of shit in games, but voiced protagonists in an RPG game absolutely kill them for me.

 

Actualy trailer tells us a lot about gameplay. They wouldn't bother to make all those pre-war assets if they wouldn't be used, from the looks of it you will be playing pre-fallout times also. Maybe 2 stories running parallel.

Or like in Witcher 3 with Ciri gameplay, you will take control pre-fallout nuclear explosion for a few moments.

Also the narrator is saying the nuclear detonation just happened. Maybe you will be revisiting pre-explosion world or smth.

 

Were they really treated that badly? Sure they missed out on that the bonus payment, but other than that, they got to keep people employed and working on a game.

 

Seconded. Though, admittedly, it forms a neat package, with the zeppelin and the doge.

Sorry for leddit link, but this thing everyone thought was a lame fake post doesn't actually seem that unlikely now.

I actually believe this is true. Everything on the list seems like something Bethesda would do.

 

Indeed

 

The more you watch the trailer the more it grows on you. It doesn't contain the retardism hype of skyrim with FUS RO DERP. We might get a very decent story here, everything looks solid, maybe if you are 15 year old and expected ponies that shoot rainbows from their ass you'd be dissapointed.

 

[Intelligence]: So you're saying the game is set in Boston?

 

My god, the soldiers were right, war, war never changes.
