Now take a look at the tread that more or less confirms that this is a 2015 game and have your mind blown.

Mothership isn't that bad, it does have some pretty cool new weapons in there, and love the samauri armor, but you got to kill him first for it.
Finding all the audio logs though is a pain in the ass.So what are the chances that this is the case:
Game starts, you're pre-explosion, playing as the Father Dude
You get a bunch of "starter" things, like a simple tutorial, leading up and through the war (and a combat tutorial) where you're trying to protect your kid
Eventually the intro portion ends, and it flashes forward 200 years or so to the time period after Fallout 3, and you're playing a configurable great-grandkid ?
Would explain why the initial character is voiced and is only male, as well as being around pre-apocalypse when the game is supposedly around the time of fallout 3

Lol, not many people will get this I don't think...

Yes, getting locked out of quests should be number 1 on the list of things to eliminate this gen.
That was great. The last part really made me smile.
Eh... I rather liked Mothership Zeta. Beyond that I agree with you

Hahaha, that was pretty great.
PREORDER CANCELLED!
Still so hyped >_<!
A friend of mine pointed that out and said he's gonna make it his goal after release to find that super market and see if they fixed it or not.
A true patriot. Your friend.

Please stop with the hype train requests. I don't want this thread to be closed.
Thank you.
You just need a 2 week supply of Nukacola and fancy lad snack cakes, and you'll be good.

Is it too late to hop aboard? Been waiting for this announcement since current gen.
This is one of the few games I'd happily get DLC for, hopefully they don't do any lockouts like with Dead Money. I felt stupid after completing it I couldn't go back unless I played on PC. At least I got to keep that sweet Holorifle.

Absolutely love my little astronaut down in the corner. Job well done.
How could you forget the Brahmin steak? Plus some Radaway for the Nukacola binging..
The rogue warrior mention 👍

Graphics look great.
Considering the vertibirds and eyebots, it's perfectly possible. That being said, I'd rather they not bring them back and rehash Fallout 3.
These are probably my favorite shots from the reveal. I think these images pretty much sum up exactly how I envisioned Fallout 4 would look.
The landscape is barren but the atmosphere isn't bleak, and I think that's a really nice breath of fresh air. The blue sky and the selective use of vibrant colors really pop out amidst the neutrals of the terrain.
They need to die and stay dead. We killed em good in FO2, killed an offshoot East Coast branch in FO3, it would be very unfortunate and stupid if they try and utilize them again in FO4. The FO world is ripe for creating interesting and weird factions. No need to recycle the same shit over and over again. NV showed this with Caesar's Legion and House. Create something new, wild and inventive. The world was about as literally wiped clean as you can get. Do something with it.

I hope they are either Brotherhood or Institute Eyebots and Vertibirds. I agree that the Enclave needs to stay dead.

Graphics are fine guys
We know we be overwhelmed with well designed gameplay elements
I'm guessing they will give players the choice of voice actor and have "none" as an option

It is a Bethesda game after all!
It was pretty clear in Fallout 3 that Bethesda felt it was more important to pluck elements from Fallout to give it superficial IP recognition than respect the original games. Enclave and Super Mutants on the east coast, Pre-war and east coast Jet, and a very different Brotherhood of Steel are some of the examples that are brought up often. I hope now that they've gotten Fallout 3 out out of the way they can try to be inventive instead of sticking to a Fallout checklist of what they believe should be there.

Was said friend ever in QA or interested in QA? Sounds like they were or they'd be perfect for it, haha.

Sorry I'm 151 pages late to the graphics debate.
The graphics may not be the best out there, but compared to last gen consoles, it looks much better.
I'm actually really loving the design of the protectron, it looks like a toy you can play with but it will probably shoot my brains out with lasers lol
That's a pretty psychotic reaction
I agree. The institute actually sounds pretty interesting.
Agreed. I don't think it was all that necessary in FO3, though I understand their thinking and reasoning, and I feel like they did a decent enough job utilizing those factions that it was OK in the end. That said it would be very foolish to do that again. It's merits were questionable the first time around, to do so again with the third modern iteration of the series would just be laughable and show a very clear lack of creativity and imagination on their part which the very opposite of what you want out the people making a FO game.
Bethesda isn't exactly known for well designed gameplay elements.

I would like to see a variety of mutant animals. Maybe some two headed dogs, freakish looking elk, a radioactive bear, etc.
But a mutant house cat probably tops the list.

That....does exactly zero to solve the issues having voice acting in the first place brings.
Also, lol @"overwhelmed with well designed gameplay elements". It's Bethesda. It won't have well designed gameplay elements.

I'm afraid that voice acting would limit dialog choices in the game. Look at the massive and varied amount of replies you could make in 3 and NV. I don't want to lose that for a three tiered tree.
Then you get MS Sam as your VA.
You are two Fallout games too late for that.
