Fallout 3 was the pinnacle of graphical prowess when it released. It's sad to see how far Bethesda has fallen.

 

[Vinc]

I think I'm just at the point where I think graphics of AAA games look good no matter what, when the art direction is up to par. And I trust that a Fallout game will have great art direction.

I think this screenshot looks great and I can't wait to see it in motion, plus I'm sure it'll improve by launch, as all games do.

 

[Asgaro]

At this point, this game looks like Catlateral Damage.

HERE COMES THE OUTRAGE



Srsly tho, I don't give a fuck. Give me fallout 4.

In a year:
Where were you... when objects without shadows became a trend in games?

"Current gen only"

 

[jerry1594]

Gamebryo again. Considering the current trend of shipping broken games, I have zero confidence of this being playable at launch. It doesn't look like Boston though.

[JayTapp]

Damn that screen looks like hot garbage. Wouldn't be surprised if this was developed with last gen in mind/same garbage engine.

 

[NightShift]

Video games in general look unrealistic and impossible. Just enjoy the fact that Fallout 4 is going to be announced in under half an hour! One of the most anticipated games ever! Come on people! pls

 

[Hip Hop]

No Obsidian then?
*sigh, hope you guys enjoy the game. Disappointment and realization after 100 hours in Skyrim taught me to not buy Bethesda game ever the first year of its release.

Why were you expecting Obsidian?

It has been known for a while that this was a Bethesda game.

oh, this was your way to get a snarky comment in.

 

[visiblemode]

Finally!

Also, no crossgen is such a relief!

 

[Tesseract]

please play like new vegas, fo3 was a mistake

[kitzkozan]

nice
bethesda need to up their game after new vegas and witcher 3, though

Why should they step it up from their point of view? CD Projekt was finally able to tap into the mainstream with The Witcher 3 and rightfully so, but does the general public care all that much about hardcore crpg foundation?

Skyrim sold 20+ million copies and you are as good as the last game you released, so they can be assured of selling at least half of that with Fallout 4. Given how few AAA wrpg are being released, I just don't see why the masses would give skip the game for failing to meet some standard. If anything, gamers will probably be more critical of the character models / animations since they generally look great in W3. I could also see criticism directed toward the lack of depth from the Bethesda open world formula, but nothing that will sink them.

 

[Mr Git]

Here's hoping that the similarity of the consoles means an end to any absolutely appalling versions. A friend asked to borrow Skyrim on PS3 a while back. I said no because I couldn't do that to them.

 

[Seth Balmore]

I'm down with this since I'm apparently one of the nuttiers who loved FO3 more than NV. Not that NV was bad I just enjoyed FO3 more.

You're not alone.

 

[Americanmushroom]

Lol so much this

 

[CaptainTiptop]

Remember when the rumours were this was a (timed) Xbone exclusive? Lol.

 

[Maximilian Kolbe]

A platform with a tiny install base can't afford anything exclusive for anything big like this. Unless the deal was made before or soon after this gen started, which would be stupid.

It's not tiny install base.

 

[Cave Johnson]

It reminds me of the static background of an oldschool point-and-click adventure.

Oh wow, I was thinking exactly the same thing. From the aliasing to the textures.

 

[RootCause]

me too.

new vegas just felt like an expansion pack to me. a great expansion pack mind you.

Initially I preffered NV, but I started playing F3 (a couple of months ago), and it became my favorite fallout.

Every Bethesda release, I swear.

 

[Haunted]

First screen ?

Why would anyone celebrate "yay no crossgen" when the game looks like this?

:lol


I'm sure it'll be great, loved the previous Fallout games.

 

[BossDarkseid]

Gamebryo again. Considering the current trend of shipping broken games, I have zero confidence of this being playable at launch. It doesn't look like Boston though.

You do realize that Gamebyro isn't the part that fucks it up for everyone?

That said I kinda agree. It'll need fan patches and mods to make it just right.

 

[Zabant]

Snagged a screenie for those that missed it.

 

[KORNdoggy]

do you think the characters will at least have different builds, heights and animations. or are we talking yet another world full of walking rigid storefront mannequins?

place your bets!

 

[Alienous]

I wonder, do you think the contact shadows mod will be free?

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

Fallout 3 was the pinnacle of graphical prowess when it released. It's sad to see how far Bethesda has fallen.

Skyrim level graphics with better AA, lighting, draw distance, and no loading would be 100% good for me.

 

[FrontalMonk]

This game will be fun and I'll buy it day one, but honestly the thing that gets me the most excited is the fact that this means we're that much closer to Elder Scrolls 6.

 

[Sifl]

Guys, in anticipation for this I've been willing to play both PS3 iterations of Fallout, how do they hold up today? (after patches and such).

I replayed New Vegas about a year ago.It ran fine in the beginning for me, but the more I played itthe worse the fps drops and the crashing became. There were certain areas where the frames dropped so low that I couldn't even exit the game to turn off my PS3. If your going to play it, at least do it on the 360.

 

[jem0208]

No Obsidian then?
*sigh, hope you guys enjoy the game. Disappointment and realization after 100 hours in Skyrim taught me to not buy Bethesda game ever the first year of its release.

*Plays game for 100 hours*

"This game sucks!"

 

[ThomasCro]

After all the pitching is Fallout 3 and New Vegas worth grabbing on PS3?

Why would you do that to yourself when there are actual PC versions?

Do I see stuttering? They better fix that by launch.

 

[GasProblem]

Yes, can't wait to see the teaser. Loved Fallout 3 and New Vegas.

I'm happy the screenshots aren't bullshots but are actually representative of what the game will look like. Graphics look fine, please let it have a locked 30 fps on consoles.

 

[Rollo Lawson]

Guys ignore the "everything's shit" people... it's Fallout mutherfucking 4.

Can't wait to dive into this.

This is where I am. I mean...Fallout 4 was just confirmed...

I like the cinematic version better

 

[Trago]

I'm hyped.

The game isn't finished people. It's still a step up over Fallout 3 graphically.

 

[Branduil]

First screen ?

Well the landscape in the background looks like hot garbage so I definitely believe that's a Bethesda game.

I really wish they would junk Gamebryo.

preeeeetty much

is this how every E3 reveal is going to be received? because damn

 

[MattyG]

People think it looks BAD? What?! It looks AWESOME!!!

 

[RPGCrazied]

Man, I can't wait for this reveal. I have so many fond memories of playing 3. I just got 3 on PC not so long ago and it looks so much better than console versions. I will play the shit out of that and new vegas this weekend to keep the hype.

 

[Days like these...]

Well, I guess it's time for me to buy a bone or ps4.

Spoiler

who am I kidding? It's bone time!

 

[PositronicMan]

Is it time yet?

 

[RyudBoy]

Looks very similar to Rage.

 

[ginger ninja]

Graphics whinning is annoying, nobody thinks of graphical apex when they think of fallout.

Either way, beth can literally shit in case and call it fallout 4, I will still buy it. Its the one game where I get to splurge.

 

[Summer Haze]

The only thing that could cause me any type of disappointment right now is if they said they're using that same old, tired-ass engine. I really don't want the game to be as stiff, buggy, and unsophisticated as their last efforts.

 

[manfestival]

those screen look so disappointing. Clearly on gamebryo. So it looks bad.... such a shame.oh well... till next time.

 

[Infernostew]

no, they have some bugs and glitches that can literally kill your ps3, savegame or game.

Thanks. I guess I'll have to wait until I get a new PC to play it.
