Fallout 4 Pre-Announcement Bullshit Thread [GO TO NEW THREAD]

An in any case it will be interesting to see what gamebryo can do on current generation consoles.

Gamebryo is long dead. They're using their own Creation Engine now.

This is Bethesda we're talking about, you're supposed to fucking pirate their games.

Even if you happen to actually like Bethesda's god awful horseshit made for a target audience of individuals with the mental capacity of an 8 year old kid.

"Enhanced" Gamebryo = Creation Engine

 

[Hirato]

Nah mate, you wait four years,
Then you get the GoTY edition in a sale*, and then you waste numerous hours installing all the popular mods to make it either bearable or turn it into a post-apoc themed rape simulator.
This is the secret to getting some enjoyment out of Bethesda's games.


* Please don't encourage Bethesda to rape Fallout more.

I cant tell if youre being sarcastic...

Bethesda (studios) said ages ago that Skyrim was their last game for the 360 and PS3.

And I can't tell if you're stupid enough to think that Beth will still use Skyrim-level tech on F4. Obviously, the engine has been massively upgraded over these years. Same name, newer code. Duh.

Well, they used Morrowind-level tech for Skyrim, you dipshit. If by "massively" you mean adding some shaders and post processing, yeah sure. I can still see the same game underneath all the hazy shit.

 

[Wirdschowerdn]

Don't talk about stuff you don't obviously have a clue about. Using a DX9 engine for Xbone/PS4 would be retarded even for Bethesda.

what exactly is "too retarded" for Bethesda? Tell me, smartass. There are things in Skyrim, Fallout 3 and Oblivion I would consider too retarded for a literal retard yet they still made it into the game.

 

[Wirdschowerdn]

Beth is retarded in many departments, but tech is not one of them.

 

[naossano]

They must be good at marketting too...

 

[Wirdschowerdn]

Indeed. Show 30 min gameplay of a near finished game commented by ToddyBoy and have armies of sheepish fanboys go wild. Dat marketing.

Works the same with Rockstar games btw.

The rendering path is basically irrelevant, switching from dx9 to 10 isn't going to change anything important about gamebryo. It will probably be prettier since specs are higher, but it's going to be same shit underneath.

They release some of the buggiest games on the market, and still can't let players go into a house without loading.

 

[Wirdschowerdn]

Beth's mandate is world building, so they build the tech around it. That there will be bugs is statistically inevitable. Like it or not, but squeezing a large and complex game like Fallout 3 or Skyrim into ancient console hardware with 512MB RAM is a remarkable feat. I'm looking forward to what they'll achieve with the new consoles as the new lowest common denominator.

And if it turns out to be a shit game, then there's still a great framework for Obsidian to pick up.

Gothic system requirements http://www.game-debate.com/games/index.php?g_id=2638&game=Gothic

128mb of ram



Not to mention GTA: San Andreas running on 32mb of ram on PS2.

..."and looking mightily shitty", you forgot to add.

Don't hold too much hope, all the new console 'power' will go into graphics.

 

[Wirdschowerdn]

Good thing there's a thing in modern GPU tech called texture streaming. Either way, let's refrain from further silly speculation and wait for a proper announcement, then the bitching and graphics-whoring may resume.

 

[Jedi Exile]

I think it's perfectly fine that Beth uses Morrowind engine for their newer games like Skyrim and F4. Yeah, it's a bit dated, has the same hilarious bugs and looks like shit, but at least I can run on my ancient PC - unlike that Frostbite crap Bio switched on.

I'm glad you can play your shit looking, buggy piece of shit with 3 minutes loading for every small hut, I wish all games looked and played like shit so that I could just buy a Pentium II and be done with it.

no offense

There are stories about manchilds of terrible power, using high frequency sounds to lure a swarm of rats into their doom. Todd the Rattenfänger has mastered that old trick with his sweet treble voice too.

I'm currently playing a heavily modded Skyrim (on a SSD) just to piss of my graphics card and I get maybe 2 seconds of loadtime (sometimes 1) per new cell. Not that I wouldn't like to see a seamless open world in F4/TES6 but you're over-exaggerating, bud.

 

[Sothpaw]

I actually enjoy FO3 & NV unlike all of the Elder Scrolls games. I guess I like that the Beth FO games actually use an XP system instead of use skill = increase skill which I hate. Also shooting > melee or bows in a first person game as far as I am concerned. VATS is pretty trash though; wish they just went full shooter with a bullet time system.

 

[Jozoz]

I won't rest easy until every last code from Gamebryo has been vanquished.

 

[G.O.D]

In this POS engine it isn't. Gunplay in FO3 and NV is laughably bad.
