In Fallout 4 there was a story about a 'Grenade Guy' who wandered the wastes making sounds with his mouth, as in motorbike sounds as he walked along and threw fake grenades to get away Bandits. The bandits mention him if you sneak up close to hear them talk. If there is a constant open voice chat in 76, why hasn't someone decided to cosplay this guy yet?!?

That was one of my favorite moments in FO4... I couldn't even kill those raiders after that. Also I would lose my poo poo if I heard someone doing that in game. resting mitch face fucked around with this message at 15:16 on Nov 18, 2018 |

And depending what Starfield is going to be about they have to rewrite most of the engine just to make the game work at all.

Starfield and the new TES game are definitely going to animate turning characters/spaceships by rotating them around their center axis

The last AAA release I can remember that was notably marred with bugs was Assassin's Creed Unity, and even that was largely just a case of the internet cherry picking stuff and spreading it around.

The dam will burst eventually though and it will be a thing of beauty bethesda are morons who don't understand what people want to play, case in point when they dropped DOOM with virtually no review copies and a terrible MP demo. It eventually went on to be a GOTY nominee but imagine how much more successful it could have been with actual marketing and early copies before release. If they didn't have id/machinegames/arkane/shinji mikami in their roster they'd be an incredibly boring company. The only good thing about them seems to be how they haven't gone the way of EA and dissolve devs when Prey or Wolfenstein sell just 1mil copies at launch.

If you plan on using a gauss rifle, ammo takes lead and steel, 2mm EC is the cheapest ammo or one of the cheapest to make also. At lvl 50+ I'm kinda out of steel now, I used to throw it away by the thousands. You could easily save space by making the ammo.

It'll calm down eventually. This is not a fantastic game and not worth $60 but the hate really is hyperbolic. The 20-minute long video of youtubers having a nervous breakdown about bugs was amazing though.

Agent355 posted:it's less about the fact Fallout 4 is about parent child relations and more the way it shoves it down your throat and takes control over what kind of character you are. You aren't allowed to give yourself your own motivations, you just have to yes/no/sarcastic yes/question. Fallout 4 made the BoS rear end in a top hat route actually pretty good because it allows you to change the character you are. I only picked it by how annoyed I was at having to hear "my babyyy" way too many times. But Fallout 3 was a total shitshow after Tranquility Lane, and was probably only saved by people not bothering to play until the ending, because if you didn't just go "huh, neat" after Liberty Prime and then get distracted from finishing the game, you got to see the ending and the original ending was suuuch a turd. The at-launch ending of FO3 is the worst ending I've ever seen in an AAA videogame and I played ME3 at launch. These days I just read mock threads instead of buying games when they're new. I'm cured!

The game seems to offer substantially more than Borderlands 2 did, and people didnt hate that?? I mean I get the hate, but taken out of the Bethesda/Fallout 4 context it seems like a basically competent if buggy survivor/shooty/lootery game. The draw for me is just dinking around the world exploring and listening to the lore, that and watching my numbers go up.

The area is so much more interesting to explore compare to 4 so that's nice. The scorched are pretty dumb but meh. I'm having fun. I imagine down the road they'll introduce raiders and stuff. Doing public events with randoms is a good time.

It is infuriating how hard CAMP is hard to deal with. A multiplayer game answers the question of "why am I bothering with making this look good" on putting a bunch of work into a construction but this game absolutely brutally punishes every single aspect of having a complex camp compared to 'my camp is just the C.A.M.P with a bed and every crafting station in a circle.

This game has its problems, but I legit find the Responders line and the Overseer's story pretty good - somehow the lore in this game is better than Fallout 4. Descending into the mine and passing the Firefighter's final exam was really good and atmospheric. Of course, the Physical Exam preceding it really highlighted all the worst parts of the game right now, but that's Fallout 76 all over. A land of contrasts.
