How is the game, lads?
>>316581249
Worth a pirate, not worth buying. Gets boring after ~7-8 hours.
Awful as an RPG or a fallout game, pretty good as an open world shooter
>>316581283
Open world usually get me too.
mediocre at best
some cool tidbits but thats about it
>>316581249
I'm liking it so far, around 20 hours of gameplay. I don't know why there are some many persons shitting on the game.
I would like to know: How long do you have to wait in one location for enemies to respawn in cleared locations/dungeons?
>>316581249
I like the new crafting and building system
strangely addictive.
I hated FO3 and Skyrim but just doing chores in this game (helping settlements, growing settlements, creating trade networks, etc) oddly hasn't got boring after 30 hours.
It's no New Vegas but it has some lasting appeal and mods are going to make it amazing.
Worth a pirate.
>>316581579
From my experience they don't unless you take a settlement quest to clear them out again.
It's basically the equivalent of Skyrim's "INFINITE QUESTS" where you can just clear out a building again.
bland an ugly
>tfw actually jealous of people playing it just because I want to make cool characters in the character creator
>>316581637
This.
I've spend almost 22 hours turning Sanctuary into a fortress.
The bridge is the only way in, and has two high towers on each side with spot lights and turrets.
Gameplay is fun, best it been yet, but overall way too easy.
The new stat and perk system is even worse than I anticipated. It barely makes sense (especially the special requirements for perks) and you can still pick up and be effective with a minigun without any related perks and 1 strength.
Companions are surprisingly interesting.
Story is completely awful, roleplaying experience is non-existent.
7/10, mods will make it pretty good from a gameplay perspective once good overhauls come out.
>>316581982
you're going to fucking love The Castle.
I like it a lot, worth getting no matter how you do, I bought it and I certainly don't regret it, I've been doing a lot of side quests to avoid that awful story quest writing and I've been entertained for a long time
Do you think it might be discounted during the christmas sales on Steam having only been released in November? Even if it's only 10%, I'm poor as fuck.
>>316582049
What difficulty are you playing on? I have it on hard and I die all the fucking time because ammo is sparse and things almost always hit pretty hard
>>316582240
Maybe but not much.Obviously they'll expect it to sell regardless at Xmas, but maybe Steam is different because at Xmas surely nobody buys anything that isn't on sale.
>>316581249
its like having sex with ex, you know she is bitch and dumped you for money. But you just cant stop having guilty sex with her
>>316582272
I think it depends on playstyle.
I went full charisma and int and have upgraded the pistol perk to 4/5, I die pretty often because I don't use power armor.
It's kind of annoying to constantly feel like I'm playing the game wrong.
Also playing on hard.
>>316582058
Oh boy. I don't think my autism can take it, if it turns out to be more enjoyable building shit in The Castle.
>>316582374
jesus christ
>>316582374
Ohh haha she got big- OH NO!
>>316582374
They grow up so fast.
>>316582374
i feel like this is all i need to know
>>316581249
Fun.
The settlement building is kind of glitchy to work with but oddly addicting. I came home from work the other day and meant to go out and take care of stuff. Instead I spent about 2 hours building a small dormitory for my settlers, complete with bathroom and kitchen and couches and a stairway to a upstairs where I placed some laser turrets pointed at the opening in the outer wall.
>>316582374
Fallout 40 keks
>>316582386
Castle is less of a blank canvas than Sanctuary or some of the other settlements, but it's got winding stone hallways that are all already wired (just supply a generator and it's all already got lighting).
It also has large walls surrounding it, a chem store prebuilt and you learn how to make artillery there.
I think I will enjoy the new call of duty more than this, which is bizarre for me.
>>316582374
Funniest thing I've seen all week.
>>316582374
>"Boss, what if a child enters the power suit?"
>"Uuh just setscale 1.5 and fuck my shit up."
>>316582272
hard mode. I lose health pretty rapidly in some situations with a little under 50 dt, but since you find stimpaks everywhere it's no issue, and my upgraded weapons kills deathclaws in three seconds.
>>316582508
>Someone is using console commands to set someone as a companion
>WTF, the game is buggy when people use console commands, 0/10 game
-you
Has anyone gotten their hands on Nuka Cola? What does it taste like? I went to target but it sold out within hours of coming out
>>316582567
Fun fact: adults scale up too, just you don't see it.
I didn't realize you had to remove fusion cores from your armors so an adult settler stole one of my armors.
I found her looking like this.
Then I told her to "get out of powerarmor"
I expected my set of T51 to appear but it never did.
I need to find some more now.
>>316582728
Me?
>>316582728
Literally a boolean:
Canusepowerarmor = false;
No fuck ups even with console commands
Far Cry: Post Apocalypse.
Pros:
>Lots to explore
>Lots to shoot
Cons:
>Almost no RPG elements remaining in franchise
so I hear people saying hard is difficult but not too bad...
Im playing on survival and the game is piss easy
not too far in yet, is it going to start facerolling me?
I really hope so
>>316581953
>tfw you aren't a roguishly handsome wastelander
>>316582751
ah so that's where the creepy arms come from
>>316582924
Didn't Skyrim have a thing where the hardest difficulty was easier too?
>>316582374
What kinda game you want Senpai?
>>316581249
Best gameplay in an open world Beth game so far.
Fantastic companions, they actually rival New Vegas'.
Very detailed character creation, weapon/armor modding, and settlement building.
Pretty well built and densely packed world, very fun to explore.
Better factions than 3, BoS is vastly improved.
Story is slightly better than 3's but still kinda shit.
Dialogue wheel is shit and the voice acting/background really deter role-playing. Mods fucking when.
Overall, if it gets even half the mods of Skyrim, the game will be pretty damn great in a few months. For now, I'd classify it as "very fun".
>>316582924
Survival only gets difficult when you're fighting massive amounts of enemies because the healing is so slow. Children of Atom can absolutely fuck your day up if you let them surround you and the higher level Feral Ghouls break your arms and legs like they're made of paper. Glowing Mirelurk Hunters can also be nasty if you fight more than a couple.
But yeah, Survival isn't that difficult if you've got a brain about it.
>>316581249
>Enemies with infinite granades, hiding behind cover, continuously throwing that shit at you non stop.
Yeah, it's not very well made.
I can put up with some level scaling problems, with weak as shit enemies surrounding one fucking god like bullet sponge boss, but the infinite grenades take the fucking piss. Huge AoE and stupid damage and thrown at you from any range.
I'm OK with everything else.
>>316582993
>>316583114
wait, so some aspects of hard difficulty are harder than survival?
wtf?
I paid 48 USD, I enjoy the game and find it very fun.
>>316583243
I'm not saying that definitely, I'm saying I remember Skyrim having a weird difficulty system like that.
Also I think it's more to do with how you play, most of the people who are dying on hard aren't using power armor or heavy weapons.
I don't even use rifles.

>"We've been waiting for you to show up! We'd like to talk to you..."
>They wanted me here so instead of inviting me or abducting me, they waited for me to figure out how to build a teleportation device to come here myself...
Great writing.
It looks like a good base for mods. I'll pirate it in a couple years.
It's pretty alright. I'd describe it as a reskinned borderlands with better writing and some Minecraft sprinkled in. Just don't jump in expecting it to play like the older games.
>>316581249
Good game, bad fallout game. Same as F3.
I'd be okay with it if it was 15 years after the war instead of 215.
>>316581330
So the same as 3. Nice.
Worst fallout to date with a minecraft mod tacked on
>>316583578
>>316583520
>FO3fags pretending its not worse than 4 to stay relevant
it's shit
pirate before you shell out the cash
How long do you have to wait in one location for enemies to respawn in a diffrent cleared location. Bethesda usually does this, so that you can harvest everything you've already harvested. -The Architect
>>316583042
>Best Gamplay in open world Beth game
Agreed. It's still not amazing, but it's far and away the current best of all Bethesda games.
>Fantastic companions; rival New Vegas
I don't know about that. Nick Valentine, Paladin Danse, and Curie are really the only companions I like as much as the New Vegas ones, Piper, Cait, and McCready are all annoying in my opinion, haven't unlocked any others.
>Detailed character creation, weapon/armor modding, and settlement building
Gotta admit I didn't expect to like building settlements as much as I have. The weapon and armor modding is great if a little broken, but I expect mods and DLC to really take advantage of it.
>Pretty well built and densely packed world, very fun to explore
Kinda. It's got some neat areas and isn't as boring as Fallout 3s world, but it's kinda small and not as deep or cohesive as New Vegas.
>Better factions that 3, BoS is vastly improved.
Definitely agreed here. The factions all feel more mature than in 3. I guess they learned their lesson from Obsidian with how to write factions. Still not as good as the Legion, NCR, or House, but definitely a step up from the corny factions in 3.
>Story is slightly better than 3's but still kinda shit
I'd disagree here and say that it's much better than 3's but still kind of shit. Fallout 3 takes the cake for piss poor stories. If the Fallout 4 twist hadn't been ruined for me I'd think it was kind of clever.
>Dialogue wheel is shit and the voice acting/background really deter from role-playing. Mods fucking when.
The voiced protagonist and dialogue wheel don't really bother me because it's pretty much the character I was going to play anyways, but yeah. It really hampers role playing and forces you into a role.
>Overall, if it gets even half the mods of Skyrim, the game will be pretty damn great in a few months. For now, I'd classify it as "very fun"
Yeah. I'd classify it as fun, but I agree. A few mods here and there and some neat DLC will be ace.
> not one person claiming to dislike the game can prove they own the game and have played it
>>316583652
except I thought F3 was a bad fallout game as well
It was still fun when it came out, but I can't go back to it due to NV
>>316583578
Yeah its basically like 3 but improved in every way. Second worst fallout game but an ok game overall
>>316583640
Wrong, based on the fact that Fallout 3 exists. Fallout 3 is far and away the worst game Bethesda has made. I'm surprised it even made enough money to warrant them making Fallout 4.
fallout 1 and 2 being good is a meme

>>316581982
What's the point of building turrets and shit? Do raiders occasionally try to raid your settlements?

>FO4 textures are bad

FUUUUUCKK OOOOOOOOOOOOFFFFFFF
NO ONE CARES, FUCK OFF
Seriously, the game is fun and that's all that matters, go fuck yourself with this ''FO is supposed to be a RPG'' meme, fuck you, stop being stuck in the past, move on, FOR CHRIST'S SAKE.
I'm thoroughly enjoying the game for what it is, you faggots are all just a bunch of whinny, biased cunts who can't appreciate games anymore and just shitpost all day on the internet.
Again, fuck you, all of you.
>>316583967
Yes
>>316583967
Yeah, and turrets help. They're especially nice against Feral Ghouls because they have pinpoint accuracy against those wily fuckers. But unless you build a giant wall around your base and funnel the raiders into a hallway of turrets they won't be able to hold off an invasion themselves.
>>316583987
>>316583993
these, the game is great
What do you gain if you build your settlements?
Like it's fun to build, but why should I do it? What do I actually get out of it?
>>316583967
I've had one group of super mutants attacking my base at Red Rocket, but I don't know if there's supposed to be random attacks.
I sure as hell hope so.
FO2>FO1>FONV>FOT>FO4>FO:BoS>FO3
>>316583993
except the dialogue wheel is shit and you can't effectively skip dialogue without risking to shoot someone in the face
Also fuck having settlers as shopkeeps, half the time they don't work
>>316584145
F04>FNV>F03
havent played the other ancient games.
Finished exploring every place on the map and I have to say it has more places but much less interesting areas than both 3 and NV.

>>316584102
more people = more people to buy from your stores = more money for you
more people = less food and beds and water
more people = more raiders
more guns = less raiders
>>316584215
You've got a case of nostalgia, FNV was an empty boring as shit world.
And Fallout 3 while good atmosphere didnt have nearly as much content as 4
>>316584102
You've gotta be a charisma man to get the most out of settlement building. In fact, I wouldn't even bother working on settlements until you have 2 ranks in Local Leader and 7+ charisma. But settlements bring in a steady income of caps if you've got shops built. Speaking of shops, they'll typically have some good shit for you, lots of caps to trade with, and a lot of junk material useful for building new shit. Primarily though it's just for fun. If you don't like building settlements you don't have to.
>>316583819
Can confirm. I've played MGSV (80 hours), Witcher 3 (70~ hours) and Fallout 4 (30 hours) and Bloodborne (can't remember but a long time anyway) so far
Fallout 4 > Bloodborne > MGSV > Witcher 3
8/10, they need to patch the texture streaming
>>316584197
here you go, for your'e (you) :)
>>316584197
>fo4 better than nv
>>316584307
>only fags who can prove they have played MGSV, Witcher 3, Fallout 4 and Bloodsouls

Fucking knew it
>>316584329
It's much more fun, and that is what I play games for you know, fun.
>>316584328
Isn't baiting, I was born in 94 ofcourse I havent fucking played fallout 1-2
>>316583789
danm sicko fucko, if you like that kind of stuff keep it to yourself, I don't need to see it.
>>316584286
Nope sorry. Most of the areas in FO4 are just enemy encampments. Lots of which lack any reason to explore. Big areas of the FO4 map are empty.
>>316584306
Cheers.
I'm not your lad, buddy.

let me help you
fallout 4 < bloodborne < mgsv < witcher 3
Which Special boosts energy weapon damage and do energy weapons come under "Non-automatic"
>>316581953
Same but because of settlement building done right in survival games I can build a city but it will stand empty in Fallout 4 I can have some actual people living with me
>>316583993
Gentleman, behold our future and weep for this is our next generation of humans.
>>316582374
I didn't even know you could tell people to get inside power armor
>>316584504
Sorry bro, Witcher 3 had a good story but making it open-world was a mistake, fucking giant world with nothing at all to explore.
>>316584523
those actual people are npcs in a fucking bethesda game, the worst fucking developer
>>316582374
so Fallout 4 is a horror game?
>>316584504
>Witcherkek mad over being BTFO by the only person who has proven he has played all 4 games
>>316584568

We played different games then. W3 isn't even my GOTY but exploring was the one thing I spent most of my time doing.
>>316581249
Buggy pile of shit.
Best game Bethesda has ever made.
Not GOTY.
>>316584594
joke's on you, I haven't played any of those games
>>316584504
Nah, Witcher 3s gameplay was fucking boring and its open world was literal Ubisoft tier. From a gameplay standpoint MGSV,Bloodborne and Fallout 4 shat on it in my opinion
>mfw i torrented it but still haven't bothered installing it
who else tired gamer here?
>>316584676
fo4 has the ugliest fucking art style, what the fuck were they thinking
it looks like fucking fable with 0 the charm
>>316584306
How do you collect caps from shops? I've built a few in some settlements, but they don't seem to do much other than let me offload shit I can't scrap
>>316584636
Alright, what did you explore and what did you find?
Because you could not find better armor, you could not find better weapons then the witcher sets you could craft.
If there was anything to find it would be marked on your map and in a village.
>>316584764
They show up in your workbench.
Out of the "big 4" this year this game has the longest list of complaints by far. Ranging from Mechanics and development choices to Graphical faults and lore changes.
Bloodborne = TW3 > MGSV >> Fallout 4
>>316584757
Yea, visually the game is inconsistent as fuck. It goes from being real fucking pretty (rad storms etc) to mediocre to flat out ugly.
Still a fun as fuck game tho
>>316582751
How horrifying.
>>316584286
>FO3
>good atmosphere
where did this meme even come from

and this meme, I see these memes posted word for word all the time and always in the same post.

>>316584870
>not even parallax bump on those grates
3dpd
>>316584860
Screencap evidence that you've played FO4 and MGSV.
So far we've had one anon who confirmed he played all 4 games who had Witcher 3 last (see: >>316584307)
Can you prove me wrong?
>>316583993
Nice pasta buddy
>what did I explore
Loaded question. I guess I can answer as the areas off the main track or everything?
>what did I find
Items, some gear and lore items. Exploring isn't always about looking for upgrades.
>>316583810
>but it's kinda small and not as deep or cohesive as New Vegas
I'd disagree with you here, the world is far better than the Mojave in NV, Obsidian just can't into world building. The map seems a bit small, true, but there is also a lot more verticality compared to previous 3d fallouts.
>>316584889
NV had a very boring world honestly
>>316584307
wow you played all of them and you have [opinion]?
that must mean [opinion] is objectively right.
>>316584307
Witcherfags on suicide watch
>>316581249
Meh.
Not as good as NV, but still OK.
Will get better once more mods and expansions come out.
Same old Bethesda game/s.
Getting stale for me anyways.
>>316584810
Thanks

>>316584921
Not sure why you care so much. You might also find this surprising but people have different tastes.In the process of playing through TW3 again, that save of FO4 is one of 3 characters though wasn't really bothered showing all of them.
>>316583993
This, but I will fully recognize that as fun as the game is, it's much more of a FPS with RPG elements than F3 was just by the nature of how they simplified the dialogue
It's a good game, but acting like the dialogue wheel isn't a legitimate flaw is silly
>>316585310
whoops one of the quotes is to the wrong person, disregard that.
tl;dr Fallout 4 is surprisingly fun despite the almost constant bugs, engine limitations, questionable mechanical design, awful UI, bad framerate, cringy story, and ugly visual design.
>navigating menus with a mouse that has a halfsecond of input lag makes doing basic things like switching inventory items a total chore.
>enemies are either flitting camouflaged critters with no obvious hitbox that flit around and charge straight for you in combat or are hitpoint-sack humans who can take 5 laser beams to the face and constantly plink your health with aim-bot perfection.
>framerate tanks into the 20s sometimes leaving combat entirely in the hands of VATS or else I waste tons of ammo trying to uselessly shoot impossible targets
>constantly full of inventory cause of vacuuming up garbage everywhere fro crafting
>perk sheet is a confusing clusterfuck of pointless animated icons instead of a concise list and so understanding the basic requirements of how to do things is an unnecessary challenge
>basebuilding minigame is utterly ridiculous afterthought. I chose to completely ignore what amounts to a minecraft decorative mode. Even if I wanted to the UI for building the modular pieces is absolutely awful.
>story and characters are trying to be both melodramatic and serious and also wacky and zany and so the whole thing seems amateurish and eye-rollingly corny. Most of the characters are unlikeable and the voiced dialogue is hammy immersion-breaking.
Despite all this, I've actually played it for about 20 hours or so, mostly for the openworld exploring. There's moments of genuine discovery and thrill of combat, especially once you get into a rhythm of exploring, combat, scavenging, return to base, crafting, improvement. I just think about how much better it would be if the game weren't constantly suffering from the above myriad of unintended behavioral bugs, shoddy UI design, poor graphical performance, and not having a cornball story rammed down your throat.
>>316585310
>no thread in background
:^)
>>316585310
why are you playing TW3 on steam when you have it on GOG?
My old crappy PC can't handle FO4. It could handle Witcher 3 on medium. FO4 runs smoothly and then it goes into hissy fit <10 FPS at random which is unplayable when in fight.
Power armour is pretty fucking sweet, it definitely feels like you have more of a prescence with it than in F3/NV - only problem is enemies still have no self-preservation so I had a raider run at me with a fucking poolstick. I know he was probably fucked up on drugs but I'm like a walking robot so he should of shit himself and ran away.
>>316581249
It's okay, New Vegas is better
the game kinda makes you take the Rad reduction perks because lots of shit gives Rads

It's actually pretty fun so far, I came in with exceptionally low expectations but I'm enjoying it a lot.
It's better than skyrim and fallout 3 by far, but not even close to new vegas.
>>316584216
Tactics take some time to enjoy, I had to try about 5 times until I managed to go through the first mission without having my shit fuck up and like the game.
>>316585545

>all these hardcore companions like Cait, Danse, and Nick
>make them farm and sleep in sleeping bags in a broken down shack while I live in a fortress next to them
I am the king of this wasteland and it would behoove you not to forget this.
To get rid of the low FPS/stuttering garbage, do I set PresentInterval to 0, play in borderless, change Nvidia v-sync to adaptive, or a combination of the 3?
Pretty good. Built a badass fortress at the gas station.
>>316585874
If he said his favorite was 3, 4, or even NV you would have called him an underage retard, but since he said FO1 he's just trying to fit in. Most smart people have no problem playing old games.
>>316585765
>Bethdrones on damage control
The game is literally a Borderlands/Far Cry mix with hints of Fallout to bait fans of New Vegas into buying it.
>>316585551
I was gifted it.
>>316585930
turn off godrays completely in the ini, use the fps boost fix from FO3/NV and set shadows to medium instead of low or high
T-thanks Todd
>>316581249
It's more fun once you get the "fixed survival"-mod for it, changes the game into Ranger mode, you and enemies alike takes more damage. So it is basically just as hard, you will still get one-shotted by certain enemies, but you won't have to spend as much time fighting them.
Finished it in 33 hours it was alright but the ending was underwhelming, it just felt like a redo of fallout 3

>>316583243
No he's talking shit.
The difference between survival and hard difficulty, excluding the slow health rate, is that survival makes you take more damage and deal less than on hard.

I'd say good riddance. I don't have time for RPG slogfests like past entries in this franchise (3's start was tiring and New Vega's first hours were downright boring). After a tiring day of work, all I want to do is relax and play something easy and fast for 2 hours or so before going to bed, and that's what Bethesda gave me, a simple, satisfying and RPG bullshit free where I can either play for 10 minutes or 2 hours and still feel satisfied.
All these assholes Metacritic bombing and posting negative reviews are all unproductive manchildren who can't accept that their *game* (as if RPG spreadsheet simulators count as this) isn't the same anymore. Thank Jesus it isn't, and I can't thank Bethesda enough for giving me a chance to enjoy this franchise as well, I even pre-ordered the DLCs and can't wait to play them.
Deal with it guys, times have changed.

Is this the boost fix you were talking about?

So in the beginning of the game when you have to get to the vault, can you explore or do you lose a game if you're too slow?

protip: if you decide to do the basebuilding, rope off an entire area with metal walls except for one entrance and put 3-4 turrets in front of it.
Raider raids are rare, but having turrets negates any damage they can do. Also any of the minuteman quests are infinite, so be aware that if you do them you're not doing anything other than expanding your list of bases and leveling up. The Gun Nut perk is worth it.

Please do note that I was merely comparing to 2015 titles, and if you really think one of those is barely better than shit ive got bad news for you...
You know what's genuinely impressive?
Bethesda actually managed to create a dialogue system that flows naturally in and out of game play, and actually engages multiple actors in a scene without freezing time. The four direction dialogue is rather lame, but I can't help but feel like there is huge potential there in, for a more in depth branching conversation path system.
>>316587267
not him, but loads of 2015 games are better than fallout 4despite it being a decent game
>>316587267
Kill yourself
are there still separate zones?
are there still mobs that fight you between zone transitions? that shit was pretty gay in fallout3. but typical of bethesda's incompetence.
>>316586537
What I mean is, is there any sort of timer for when you're running from your house to the Vault or are you free to walk around?
Sold 12 million units on day one
So /we Halo now/

nah, mandatory dialogs can bugged out if you disable dialog camera. cant run away from them to for example: put on your hat for extra charisma.
>gamezone.com/news/fallout-4-will-not-have-load-times-3420775
I love the absence of loading times on fallout 4!
>>316587425
What do you mean? Like how central DC was basically walled off by rubble and you needed to use subways to get in?
Eh, it's a lot more open than that. Area transitions are much more like Skyrim than anything else.
>>316586778
So?
>>316587512
No it didn't. It shipped 12 million units. Big difference. Still, I would be surprised if this game after some time don't surpass Skyrim and its 20 million.
Is the earliest you can get an energy weapon the musket?
>>316587678
to be fair I read up the original source and they kind of extrapolated a vague thing he said in a single interview about how the large areas won't be like FO3, you won't need load screens for every single door.
I will admit it's a fucking hilarious headline considering how the game turned out though.
Has anyone, ANYONE, asked the faggots at bethesda why they blatantly lied about no load times?
>Get the Laser rifle from BoS guy
>Every other gun seems underpowered
>>316582742
i got one. It's just rebranded berry lemonade.
A bit off topic here, but does anybody know if there are any intelligent ghouls in fallout 4?
Can someone please tell me if your character customization changes your baby's appearance?
>>316582374
Fuck. I jumped.
>>316587812
At least the loading times aren't bad. I don't know how Bethesda managed to get better loading times than bloody MGSV.
>>316587813
They never said there would be absolutely no loading times. They said there would be houses as the one in the trailer that you could walk right into without needing any loading times.
>>316587813
because it wasn't blatant.
I know because I was going to make an epic meme image with Todd's face and that quote, but when I actually looked up the quote it's kind of muddled.
>Can you tell us how big the map's going to be?
>"I avoid answering that, and I'll tell you why. If you look at our previous stuff, it's kind of like that. We don't actually measure it like that. Because Skyrim is one size, but the mountains take up a lot of space. That's not really a game place, it's in your way, you have to go around it, so we're not really doing that. In the city, it's very dense, but there is no load - like in Fallout 3, there's a load - for areas of the city, we don't do that. So it's very dense, the buildings are tall, and a lot of them are open, so you can just walk in and around, so... it's big. I wouldn't say, you know, if you played Skyrim, I couldn't tell you it's X bigger, so we're just saying it's about the same size."
>>316587930
It doesn't seem to. I went through it at least 5 times.
On that noterate my waifu
>>316587930
Nope it doesn't.
I started it, saw the the bugs and got back to skyrim which with mods is more pretty and run better.
Will wait a few months to see if things gets ironed out.
>>316587812
Anon, save your time by not answering to my shitposts, now I feel bad about wasting your time. ;_;
>>316587971
>At least the loading times aren't bad.
I hope you're joking.
The load times are unbearable unless you're using an SSD, I had to reinstall because of this.
I also run MGSV off a HDD, FO4 is worse by far.
>>316588054
I only have long loading times when i first start the game and load a save. Its fine after that
>>316587912
Nah, they're all retarded.
> Hey let's trap myself in a bunker for 200 years, why bother with a way to come out from it?
> Yea that's right, I've been stuck in that fridge for 200 years
> That's correct, I'm such a DUDE DRUGS LMAO that I used an experimental drug based on the FEV that ghoulified me, and I still think it's worth it since it was the best rush I've ever heard.
>>316588106
I had 30 second load screens just when fast travelling on a 7200rpm HDD.
switched to my SSD and nothing takes more than 4 now.
>>316587930
It does. Someone posted their dad and he got a huge fucking kikenose while mine don't. Also, watch the eye-colour.
>>316587912
There are plenty, although I haven't found a ghoul companion yet.
>>316586516
underrated post.
and a handful of extra conversation options locked behind having a minimum of X stat, isn't some groundbreaking idea or amazing feature.
>>316588054
Even if they're unbearable for you, they're still quicker than in MGSV.

Rate my shit also
>>316588263
I didn't notice load times at all in MGSV though.
I mean choppers felt like they ate up way more time than they should, but that isn't quicker when you use a faster drive.
>>316588340
Where to get top and shit
Some questions for anons who have the game:
Are there "essential" NPCs that can't be killed and instead just go unconscious or whatever? I know the companions (or at least the dog) is essential, but in general, are essential NPCs a rarity or are they very common? One of my favorite features of New Vegas was the fluidity and that the game allowed you to kill anyone and would adapt to your actions. Really annoys me about the "essential" characters in Bethesda games.
Also wondering how do NPCs react to crimes? Say you hit someone, do just those who witnessed it become hostile? Do they attack or run away? Is there a forgiveness system in place or will those NPCs always be hostile?
Also, how is the quest structure? Is it more layered and open-ended like New Vegas, with a lot of variety and ways to go about the quests?
>>316588403
Play on survival mode and just run through the landscape
You'll get legendary mobs ganking you in no time. They drop the fun stuff. Be prepared for hell intitially though.
>>316587849
But anon, you earned it by doing a difficult quest where you followed him around and watched him kill everything for you.
>>316588474
Yes to the first one, no to the last one
RELEASE THE FUCKING MODTOOLS ALREADY
I only want a mod that le s me kill essential people seriously screw the meusium of liberty people
>>316588340
what fucking armour is that please
>>316586516
I can't help that the RPG aspect of it moved away from player stats and into more of an equipment based. Balancing weight vs damage/protection, damage vs recoil, range, etc.
Which could have worked out great if they had actually scaled back carry weight appreciably, but since you can still lug around an entire junkyard on your back, it's just kind of an upgrade system instead of any kind of balancing act.
>>316588474
>Are there "essential" NPCs
Yes a good % are essential
>Also wondering how do NPCs react to crimes?
NPCs don't react to gunfire near them but will just turn hostile if you hit one in the same "faction" as it.
Also, how is the quest structure?
>trash it's go here kill x find x talk to x
>>316583937
>not NV
this meme is a meme
It's fucking shitty. Betheshit coding requires certain GPU users to roll their drivers back in order to launch the fucking game.
Alright folks I've got
Witcher 3: 120 hours played
MGS V: 70 hours played
Fallout 4: 18 hours played
and that is also how good I feel the games are, MGS V probably deserves a dozen hours less playtime.
GOD DAMN THESE CHOICES ARE SO HARD. FUCKKKKKK
>>316582751
I've seen this before.
>>316584889
in NV you can replay the game 20 times and find npcs on the SAME FUCKING PLACE every time, there is only a few enemies that actually roam around and even they have tiny patrol areas, so if you play the game enough times you could as well play blindfolded.
In 3 there are a few more "randomness" into it (not much, but atleast every now and then something weird or crazy is going to happen making exploring actually fun)
>>316588895
Anyone who enjoyed the witcher 3 has shit taste so thanks for letting us know to ignore your opinion.
And even doing everything and 100%ing the game, Witcher 3 only took me 60 hours. Not sure what the fuck you were doing that long.
Bethshills aren't even being subtle any more.

Going to need proof you've actually played the game. Thread in background, timestamp and everything. Don't you fucking spread your opinion of Fallout 4 without proof.

>trying to take over fortress
>screen goes into a trippy black and white mode where everything blurs when you move
how the fuck do i fix this
So is the game just Fallout 3: Enhanced Edition or are there significant improvements to the game play?
>tfw I was optimistic about voiced protag
Christ. I knew the possibility of it being bad, but I never figured it would drag the game down that much. It was so exhausting trying to decrypt that dialogue wheel, but also to bear with the constant 180° personality turns. One moment I would be a complete asshole, then another I would sound so sincere and caring. Everything was just so fucking inconsistent.
Why is it so difficult to roleplay as an asshole in this game? The mc is such a pussy.
>>316581283
Yeah found out that creating a wall around your settlement with 1 entrance doesn't work. They still spawn inside...
