I will only play a multiplayer Fallout if I can create a character with 3 or less INT, and it automatically filters all my text and voice chat so that I can only say "DUURRRRR DURRRRRRRR HUGRF"

I just wanted dialogue options at the end of Lonesome Road that no, seriously, Uly, you got the wrong guy. I was the courier that delivered mutfruit to The Divide. I have no idea who sent them this whatever detonator thing, that sounds incredibly dangerous.

marktheando posted:Yes we have roads where you can drive fast in my primitive country too. You are missing the scale. I'm not talking about the speed/how many cars can run on it. England is the size of a single state. The most impressive motorways I can find of in England took only 2-5 years to put together, and most of them just connected to prebuilt roads, with the main work being done around the core cities. In most of the cases I can see here off the M system they just further expanded roads that had previously existed, then built M Terminals that looped around the core cities to attach to it. America before the Federal Aid Highway Act was basically dirt roads. Nothing but dirt roads. There weren't gas stations, there weren't pit stops. You wanted to travel from California to D.C? You stored 4-5 gas tanks in your trunk, and you spent weeks getting there. You hopefully got gas at major cities along the way. You hopefully found enough small towns along the way to buy food at. It took 3 weeks for the Army Corp of Engineers to get from D.C. to Seattle with no stops as a test to see how poor the roads were. They had to take major detours multiple times along the way because entire sections of dirt road just had collapsed/been abandoned/didn't work. It took 35-60 years to put the Highway's together. It took $500 billion dollars. We basically built a major Highway system in loving Northern Africa. We started with quite literally nothing and built out a major road network. And all this happened right before the big war in Fallout.

Here's Nordhagen Beach which I turned into a prison-camp that I literally sent every single Ghoul settler I had too, with humans in power armor manning the guard posts. I'd give the Ghouls lovely jobs and lovely beds within the "prison yard" section so they'd never leave or wander off haha  I forget which spot this was but I turned it into water treatment, laboratories and a big testing pen for super mutants   Finch Farm got some additional infrastructure and a big cantina, robotics workshop and living quarters added up above it along with guards and turrets who could gently caress poo poo up from way up high     Anyway, Fallout base-building rules.

Road talk aside, those are some really great settlements. My biggest problem with the FO4 settlement system was the settler pathfinding. So difficult to make a multi storey building that doesn’t confuse the poor stupid settlers.

A. Beaverhausen posted:There were people (well one poster) who defended FO4's railroaded story and main character, theres something for all types. There's no need to be so melodramatic, there's huge numbers of single player games out there, since 2017 we've had games like Horizon: Zero Dawn and God of War on the PS4, Zelda and Mario on the Switch, Neir: Automata and Prey as cross platform games which included PC, there was Kingdom Come: Deliverance, we're in a vogue of isometic RPG games (Pillars, Torment, Divinity, etc), and we've had amazing single-player indie games like Celeste. We also had Dark Souls III (which had multiplayer but was totally optional) and Final Fantasy XV in 2016. I mean, yeah there's not many single player RPGs which are triple-A full 3D open world affairs ala Skyrim, but how many of those were there in the first place? If you don't like "Games as a service" (I sure as hell don't), go support single player developers and buy their poo poo.

A single player rpg being redeveloped as an online "game as a service" should be setting off major alarm bells for anyone interested in a new Fallout. It being developed by Bethesda is alarm bell enough tbh

Viva Miriya posted:Nerds on the reddit fallout discord are saying its gonna be set in Harper's Ferry, WV. This seems plausible because of the music choice and apparently because vault 76 is in the DC area. Which apparently includes Harper's Ferry. Also some poo poo about the Shenandoah river. I hope it does take place in Harper's Ferry since I already play every Fallout game like post-apocalyptic John Brown, murdering every slaver I see.

That John Denver song was played at my granddads funeral so the trailer made me unexpectedly sad.  Also if it ends up being a full-on rust/ark/etc like then 76 is a hard pass for me.

I built a barracks--for what purpose? To fill it with no name NPCs? Was I getting any tangible gameplay benefit from it? Was there any story or gameplay reason for me to do it whatsoever? No, there wasn't. This had the added effect of rendering a good deal of exploration pointless as well--most likely the only rewards I could expect for exploring Bombed-Out Abandoned Building #5324543 was a loving pool cue that did +10% damage to people wearing power armor or whatever and a bunch of junk for building more pointless settlements. What was left after that? Radiant Quests? The godawful main story? Even the cool stuff you built--unless I missed out on some massive chunks of content, in pretty sure your "ghoul prison" isn't actually a functioning ghoul prison within the game--you fudged things so some ghoul NPCs eternally hung around in the same building. Don't you think it would have been so much cooler if there was tangible in-game reason for the Brotherhood to want you to build a ghoul prison, and for there to be some sort of tangible benefit? Was your super mutant experimentation lab actually doing any experiments on super mutants (this is kind of a legit question because I never bothered playing with any of the settlement DLCs, and I know capturing super mutants and other creatures was part of one of them)? Was your "caravan processing center" actually "processing" any caravans, or did it provide you with any tangible gameplay benefit beyond linking the workbench inventories of all your settlements? Wouldn't it be so much cooler if there was some sort of in-game reason to do any of this crap? If 76 makes even the slightest effort to give you an in-game incentive for the settlement stuff, then it will be an instant improvement over 4 (this is ignoring any positive or negative implications of the multiplayer component, of course). Again, I didn't want to make it personal--those settlements look really cool, and the fact that you did it with the xbone is even more impressive. I just wish that some sort of unique gameplay element was added to settlements beyond more loving Radiant quests. I really hope that Bethesda has learned some lessons about improving the settlement system moving forward, because it certainly looks like it's here to stay.

If it is truly always online then I'm sure they will want to incorporate mods via Creation Club. So I'm expecting all the "end of modding forever" forecasts in the future. It's also an interesting move from a company that just made a big advertisement about "saving single player games".

My favorite is the guy explaining the history of the US interstate and how it will definitely feature prominently into this game based on absolutely nothing, or maybe the people searching for deeper meaning in the lyrics of a John Denver song that's been used to indicate 'generic US midwest/rural cosiness' for a few decades now

From what I can tell, the people who really enjoyed settlement building are just people who enjoy the process of building them. I know one girl who went around building the "perfect" settlement in each possible location before she even bothered doing the rest of the main quest, just because that's what was important to her. On the other hand, I basically just threw down the minimum amount of poo poo in the dirt to continue questing, because playing city builder with trash just wasn't interesting to me. Yeah, maybe they could have tried to bridge the divide more with gameplay incentives, and there was probably a better balance to find, but at some point you'd run into people saying "why are you making me build this poo poo when I just want to shoot mans?"

Oh you're 100% right, trust me I know, having spent the time to build all this poo poo. I'm just glad the systems are in the game now though, and hopefully they're aware of your justified critiques and will address them - if not in another Fallout then at the very least maybe in the next Skyrim! It might be limitations of the game engine for all I know. The AI systems have never been very spectacular.

This is extra funny because everyone who made "baseless" accusations about Fallout 3 after it's original teaser (it wasn't going to be isometric, it would be first person, it would be "Oblivion with Guns" and have a lot of the RP elements watered down) ended up being right, and all the "where's your PROOF? This is all baseless speculation!" people ended up being wrong Also, for what it's worth--that guy was right about the Interstate Highway system being an important part of American history, and I enjoyed both his dorky historical anecdotes and people getting cranky about them

Shunting all the base building and survival garbage into its own game is basically what I wish they would do with zombies and Call of Duty. Now they're free to farm out a cheap sequel to Obsidian without having to worry about a bunch of new systems garbage. 😛
