Getting really excited for this, for some reason. I haven't really followed any of the coverage of this game, but Fallout is something I could really play right now. What's the deal with the base building stuff? Has Beth stated whether or not that stuff is mandatory or ignorable? Gonna loosen up my spurs in advance so they turbo jingle jangle.

I'm making this up entirely on the spot, but I'm gonna go ahead and guess that there's one point in the main quest that introduces you to the settlement mechanic and makes you build a garage or something, and after that it's more or less optional. It's also one of the new features I'm most excited for.

Caesar: Anybody can become angry - that is easy, but to be angry with the right person and to the right degree and at the right time and for the right purpose, and in the right way - that is not within everybody's power and is not easy. John Fallout: HATE NEWSPAPERS

Generation Internet posted:They actually seem to have taken this approach with Fo4. I remember listening to one of the talks they gave and they mentioned that different parts of the world have different atmospheres. A lot of it is clean air blue sky and all that jazz, but apparently there's also a ground zero area that's more like Fo3.   Though I have to wonder why they didn't burn down completely.

They said the settlement building is optional yeah. According to the people at Prima Games you can put wheels on your house and drive it around. http://www.primagames.com/games/fallout-4/feature/fallout-4-crafting-system-scavenge-and-create

Nope, it's now canon I can use my souped-up hover Winnebago to run over Deathclaws (you could have called them something imaginative neo-Americans, but nooo, loving Deathclaws). Going to put a bunch of spikes on the front, perforate some raiders.

There's a drat good chance it would be buggy as hell, but so long as you couldn't enter the regular house without settling it, I could see it working. On the other hand, they very specifically said there would be no driveable cars and that's an odd half-truth to tell.

Pretzel Rod Stewart posted:He doesn't know what newspaper she works for, though, which means that choosing that option doesn't mean he hates a particular organization, he hates the concept of newspapers. That's a totally fine and justifiable thing to do, but to bring it up arbitrarily a few lines into a conversation? That's some alien-masquerading-as-a-person poo poo Except he didn't bring it up arbitrarily. She directly asks him, "Do you support the news?"

Inverness posted:You can see the ground zero area in the E3 trailer. It's all yellowish and the trees are bent over at an angle away from where the blast was. In the game's lore, I think, just as the integrated circuit was never developed so also were thermonuclear and hydrogen warheads never conceived. The low yield warheads from simple single stage fission bombs would leave behind a lot of mostly intact structures/trees at a distance from ground zero.

Joshua: "By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion. Remember, O Lord, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem who said, "Raze it, raze it, even to the foundation." O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed. Happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us." Do you know what it means? Mr. Fallout 4: SUPPORT NEWS

Since the game surely has subtitles for all the dialog for the hear impaired, I'll bet a savvy modder could write a script to trawl through all the conversation trees and replace 'HATE NEWSPAPERS' with the first 25 or 30 characters of it's corresponding dialog. Then you slap on a scrolling choose dialog UI and we're comfortably back to FO1/2/3/NV. You could even write a fairly smart script to break off the line at a full stop punctuation followed by a space and then a capital letter if it can.

I'm more intrested in a mod that makes it so that the dialogue previews on the wheel are exactly what the Fallout 4 dude says.

I think I will run the gamble on this game not requiring intelligence and make my character without any. Ill play it like fallout: Encino Man because how intelligent would a frozen person be?
