cant wait for the new mxr mods videos

Those are fun. I watched that channel religiously when I was into Fallout 4.

 

[Kilau]

Will use more than 2gb of ram this go around?

 

[diaspora]

Will use more than 2gb of ram this go around?

64 bit executable and an 8GB RAM requirement makes that seem likely.

 

[Vashetti]

PS4
20 GB (North America)
33 GB (Europe)

Why?

Why not let us choose a language to install upon initial disc-entry/download?

 

[liquidtmd]

.

This is fucking bullshit. 13GB for something that is entirely irrelevant to me to which the US don't have to do.

You cannot tell me it's not possible to give us Europeans a choice

13GB is nearly three times the size of the entire original 360 Skyrim FFS

 

[Lashley]

Is this a free upgrade like Bioshock recently was?

If you have the base game and all the dlc, yeah

Worth getting too since the dlc is constantly discounted

 

[Tovarisc]

My load order am cry.

Has it been confirmed that it uses a seperate install from regular skyrim?

Separate Install.

Also keep in mind any mods using SKSE won't work this this.

 

[Tarahiro]

I'm happy it's gone gold

I know it's out soon....but the gold announcement actually makes it feel like it's out soon... If that makes any sense.

I'll be playing this on Xbox One so I'm assuming the mod situation is the same as F4 because nobody has said otherwise... So i am hoping for someone to mod some cool new armour or something...

But I have friends who will be on the ps4 version. What things would no external assets affect? I assume new quests are ok as long as they use existing stuff but what about let's say a mod for marrying a usually unmarryable character (example Serana) would that be doable?

Afaik the SKSE team have confirmed they're going to update for SSE. Don't know if that means existing SKSE mods will work though.

 

[Tovarisc]

Gopher made video about this soon after SSE was announced and he talked to people who are maintaining SKSE. According them at best case it will take just days to bring over, but most likely we are talking weeks if not months. Considering such estimates for SKSE to coming over to SSE I imagine quite a bit has to be rewritten and changed, so existing mods with SKSE dependencies wont work without some updating.

 

[DOWN]

So mods can do stuff like mess with Health and speed and item weight and such on PS4 now? Because that's exactly the type of mods I was interested in testing. I generally don't go for changes to the visuals...

 

[Kilau]

64 bit executable and an 8GB RAM requirement makes that seem likely.

That does seem logical but I guess i'll believe it when I see it.

 

[nataku]

So... mods are allowed as long modders create PS4 specific mods or versions of their mods? Well that is kinda fucked up and I kinda can't see a lot modders going for that extra work.

Yeah. No one is going to bother going through their old mods just to update all their assets so PS4 users can use them. That's an insane requirement.

It'd kind of work with FO4 because that thing is relatively new, but unless modders can nearly straight port their old mods to the SE there is no way it'll get good support.

 

[Asmodai48]

Why would the specs be that much higher than original? I thought the upgrades weren't major.

 

[Kaffeemann]

maybe it has those same light shafts from fallout 4 that ran really bad, and they are just covering their asses by giving it about the same requirements of F4 just for that one effect if people decide to max it.

You can easily run god rays on ultra in FO4 is you type "gr grid 8" into the console. This brings the performance cost down to the low setting but looks ten times better.

I got boned (glitched out of) halfway through a later side quest and never came back to the game. Kiiiinda interested to pick it up on one of the new consoles. Not 60 dollars interested, tho.

I hope you plan on buying the XBOX or PC version then because the PS4 version won't get the Unofficial Patch and will stay buggy for all eternity.

 

[jrush64]

If you have the base game and DLC, yes.



I believe so. Specifically the The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim + Add-Ons BUNDLE.

I can still buy the legendary edition. IT's cheaper than the bundle on Steam. I know Legendary Edition has been removed from Steam though

 

[rdytoroll]

Can´t wait to jump in once again. perfect for this time of the year

 

[kiguel182]

Is an i3 6100 enough?

 

[Unai]

I hope SkyUI is ported fast.

Didn't maker of SkyUI leave modding scene? Besides it requires SKSE if I remember right so it can't come over before SKSE is remade.

Damn! Well, I need to finish Enderal either way.

 

[Tovarisc]

[Gunslinger]

The ps4 version have no mod support right?

 

[Gaspard]

The ps4 version have no mod support right?

Mod support with no external assets

 

[Deadly]

I was thinking the same. Definitely will be waiting for some sort of UI rehaul on the SE because the base UI on PC was shit.

 

[kris.]

neat! pumped to jump back in. it's fucking rad that they're giving it away for people that already own the game and dlc.

 

[KefkaPalazzo]

Day one on XB1.

One of my favorite games of all time, the lore of the Elder Scrolls series is unmatched

 

[Tovarisc]

If one thing Bethesda is consistent with is creating hot garbage UI's for PC versions of their games.

I would get it on xb1.

 

[GreyWind]

"You can play forever!"

I'll get it day one

 

[Arkanius]

And still no new pictures
You all know what this means.

 

[banefirelord]

I'll gladly take the free PC upgrade as an excuse for another playthrough...it's been a while and I'm getting The Itch.

 

[Gamezone]

Why is the PS4 version more GB?

 

[VE3TRO]

Maybe this time around I'll complete the damn story. Always got carried into side missions and stuff.

Why is the PS4 version more GB?

Probably for the Pro support.

 

[SirMossyBloke]

Wait, it says Mods on console. Are they not adding the mod menu to the PC version? I much prefer that to using a separate program.

 

[diaspora]

I can still buy the legendary edition. IT's cheaper than the bundle on Steam. I know Legendary Edition has been removed from Steam though

As long as you have the base game and the DLC you're good to go.

 

[LelouchZero]

I'm really looking forward to seeing the improvements this brings on PC over the original version.

 

[Lucreto]

Might get it again but I will wait and see how are the loading times on the PS4 version. I don't want to spend another 200 hours setting stuck on load screens for entering a town and again to enter your house.

 

[120v]

kind of concerned they've shown virtually nothing of this

 

[Unai]

Why is the PS4 version more GB?

It downloads all languages instead of only the one you are using. That's also why the euro version is even bigger.

 

[Kaffeemann]

Small update:

Several modders already have access to the Special Edition.
They are not allowed to talk about it but one commented that:

Comparing it to vanilla Skyrim (just vanilla Skyrim mind you), it looks a bit better and runs a lot better.

And the first mods are already being uploaded to Bethesda.net.

Holy shit really? I need to try this.

It's very interesting that it runs better than vanilla.

Wat? Explain

 

[Gamer @ Heart]

I remember how hyped I was when this was announced with mod support. As a ps4 only owner this gen, I am super fucking biter at this whole fucking situation.

God I loved this game and would have killed to play it again with all the tweaks and additions I got to only read/watch videos about.
