I think the graphics look pretty damn good,but to each their own.
The part showing the deathclaw looks really good,great atmosphere imo.
 
You can't do the $5 down thing online with BB can you? I want my name attached to the purchase of this game now. I just want to be close to it, now. I want this game in my blood. I am ready. Screw it, I'll be paying for this game anyway, $48 now wouldn't hurt.

Edit: Ok I see people saying you don't get charged right away? I swear a friend of mine mentioned that he paid for the Batman console bundle in full when he made a pre-order online.

If you use a credit card online, they don't charge until it ships.

Gonna catch flack for this, but I don't like what I'm seeing here.

It plays the Fallout buzzwords too straight (1960s/retro, nukes, pre-war and post-war). I'm not interested in the cheery "period piece" pre-war days. The trailer plays up the fact that nukes hit and nobody expected them, but this is the 4th game in the series, we should already be way past this by now.

Bethesda can't make interesting games anymore. I couldn't care less about the events of Fallout 3, with that nebulous and uninteresting water purification system.

Playing it safe in both content and tech. Meh. I wish Obsidian was making this.

yeah story wise I didnt see anything we havent seen before. Tech-wise, well, i wasn't impressed, I'll leave it at that.

So I just looked at the animations of the people running.

Looks like same old gamebryo.

Fucking awful. Just hope they don't try to push paid mods and hope to god it's 60FPS for console friends.

I am underwhelmed as fuck. And I was already expecting Gamebryo again.

Really hyped but is it just me or visually its not impressive

i seriously think even Skyrim had better graphics

I need to take a break from GAF, this thread is too toxic.
 
Haven't liked a Bethesda game since Morrowind so I'm super on the fence for this. Least no one will be yelling downgrade when this comes out.

Looks good to me..

I hope they add something more active to the VATS. It's cool to watch but gets old after a while for me. Or just make the regular shooting mechanics decent this time.
 
Wouldn't be Fallout/Elders Scroll without shitty graphics and animation. Nobody cares with these games, I still think that Skyrim looks like shit (except with those ultra hyper mods that change woman into anime waifus)

Exactly, not known for graphics.

Just give me great gameplay and make it run well in terms of performance.

I see colors, and that was my single biggest concern. Graphics are okay-ish. At least it looked like a world I want to explore, Fallout 3 (haven't gotten very far in NV) was just depressing. I love color, and beautiful landscapes. I also like swords/medieval weapons better than guns.

Considering how Fallout 3, New Vegas and Skyrim were breaking records in sales, with all the money bethesda have, they could easily just get a new engine built.

Instead it's gamebyro for 5 more years.

At least it's more Fallout, I love fallout.

Gamebryo isn't a issue because of the visuals. You don't play Fallout because of the visuals. It's an issue because of the bugs.

Please let this be the first moderns FO title that's been put through at least an competent QA team.

I give zero shits about the graphics. But I do care about the presentation, the world building and the tone of the game.

It fees slightly off.

I will still like it I think. But I do not expect NV greatness.
 
-GAF rages demanding Fallout 4 since forever

-Fallout 4 finally revealed

-GAF rages about the graphics, the least important aspect of any game.


GAF in a nutshell.

Ah, GAF keeps confusing me. A nexus of hardcore gamers. And all that fills the front page are threads about graphics comparisons and resolutions. Isn't that what should bother the 'mainstream'? What happened to the old adage 'gameplay above graphics'?

Game looks fantastic. Let's find out what the game plays like. Bring it on.
 
I will be extremely happy if this is a 2015 game, but even so that 11/30 date is doubtful because a) it's a Monday and b) that's the Monday after the largest shopping day in the U.S., Black Friday. If you want to move a lot of copies during the holidays, and in November in particular, you typically release prior to that.

Might be the European release date, with the US version releasing the previous week.

People are disappointed with the visuals? Just what the hell were you expecting? It's an open world game from Bethesda. It looks dramatically more detailed than Fallout 3 and seems to feature much more ambitious world design. It looks very good for a game from these guys.

This game features lots of gore right?

Yes__X__ No_______

Yes, The VATS system lets you pinpoint targets (limbs, heads, torsos, etc) and shoot them right off. It might not always happen. The gore is actually less than everywhere else you look. Skyrim didn't have a lot of gore to be honest. Fallout only gets its gore from VATS IMO.

In so many ways. Gonna be hard to go back to Bethesda's non existent writing after witcher's incredible side quests but still the world of fallout is interesting for sure so I'm still hyped

No doubt, I still had a ton of fun with Fallout 3 despite its flaws. Adding color to the damn game will make things much easier to run through again and again too.
