Don't see any benefit for a publisher to still be doing cross gen. Sales are terrible now for core titles and it limits the potential of current gen titles. Don't see how publishers can still think it's a good idea in any way to do that now.

 

[Obliterator]

THE TAGS ARE NOW GONE FROM GOOGLE IT WAS A MISTAKE. EVERYONE REPOST THIS TO STOP THE TRAIN OF MISERY.

Guys, PS3 and 360 are no longer in the Google Tag Manager. I think it was a mistake. I think we're safe.

For the love of god please be true.

MY EMOTIONS YO!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Woo-Fu]

Bethesda's reliance on gamebryo---or engines that they say aren't gamebryo but somehow look just like gamebryo up to and including the same bugs gamebryo is known for---makes me think crossgen really isn't going to hold the game back. It is too early to start crying.

 

[DrROBschiz]

Will the power of Current Gen allow 7 voice actors instead of 6 for the dozens of characters?

HAHAHAHAHA

I forgot about that!

 

[tcrunch]

I think it might be crossgen

Went through the CSS and it also mentions PS4, Xbox One and Steam which to me means that this is definitely not an old CSS; and yeah, it has 460 and PS3 in it as well.

 

[Jarmel]

Cross gen kills all hype for me. All hype.

 

[jett]

MGS V is cross-gen yet people are super excited.

MGSV was announced ages ago.

It's 2015.

 

[Captain_Wreckus]

geeze go for a walk to have a coffee and the cross-gengate for fallout 4 happens.

But honestly, if it is cross-gen, that would be a disappointment....Unless there's a separate developer working on the last gen version and obsidian, bethesda or whoever is working on the XBO, PS4, & PC version of the game.

Only way we find out is tomorrow.

 

[RockTurtle]

Ask yourself: why were the PS3 and 360 listed to begin with? I doubt it's a mere mistake, there has to be some meaning to that.

i think that if any name/item/character/asset that was present in some form in a 360/ps3 bethesda title is re-used they have to put the console anyways for parity.

 

[rawd]

I honestly don't care anymore if its cross-gen or not.. I just need it in my veins

 

[mysteriousmage09]

Disgusting if cross-gen.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Fucking crossgen... really?

Just got back from track. YES, YES, AND YES!

I doubt they started working on the game today. Must have been in the works for quite some time already.

Too close. I was already at the bargaining stage of grief.

Don't give in to the grief LoC. Give in... to the hype.

 

[Horohoro]

Damnit!

I said I wouldn't get hyped for this E3!

 

[Lord of Castamere]

OHHHH SHITTT Ron Perlman possibly back for Fallout 4? I'm surprised I didn't see this sooner.

[Denzar]

Best we can hope for is that Bethesda is focused entirely on PS4/XONE/PC versions and some other developer can port down to the other systems.

Hope that's the case.

I'm tired of last gen console development spreading the possibilities and teams (too) thin.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Crossgen means I wont be picking this up on console.

Yes, I'm sure the PS4 and XB1 versions will be affected when the PC version won't at ALL

/s

But seriously, I just bought a PS4, the last-gen versions better be 20fps piles of shit :|

 

[MissCauthon]

Am i the only one here that seriously did not like this game at all? i must be lol

 

[Americanmushroom]

Lol people going crazy because of a code

 

[lighthouse777]

A .js file called "/57601643.institute." is also mentioned in the source code

[pager99]

load of bollix ifcrossgen i aint supporting that shit

 

[d00d3n]

So disappointed if cross-gen is true. Dat Skyrim sales have fucked with their common sense. There are already two gigantic 3d Fallouts (+dlc) that push open world gameplay scope to last gen limits. A new "map pack" of Fallout levels with the option to up-res on PC and current gen, while being fully compatible with last gen, is not enough.

This was the time to do grand things like replacing indoor instancing with proper streaming technology. Maybe have some nice ai stuff interacting on a grand scale in open world. Vehicles? Destructibility? Nope, none of this stuff can happen, because Bethesda want to sell 15 million copies of their game.

 

[anexanhume]

I think they could make it work cross gen with little sacrifice to visual quality if they really wanted to, but my greater fear is that they need to be buying into the platform shift at this point. Current gen consoles need the sales to keep the industry moving forward. Moves like this are a negative for the industry as a whole.

 

[cirrhosis]

say that obsidian is doing the last gen version and Bethesda is doing the current gen version. Would you change your mind

Reverse who's doing the gen versions and it'll be good. Though in reality, no way do I see Obsidian working with Bethsoft again.

also, if cross-gen, we'll be seeing gamebryo again.

(It'll always be Gamebryo no matter the gen)

Man, Ron Perlman was so goddamn amazing in SoA, and I am new to Fallout so this excites me more.

 

[gamechanger87]

Website down.

 

[ShadowSoldier89]

Fun is subjective. Some of us expect a game being released in 2015-2016 that is a AAA game to take advantage of new hardware. If you don't, then oh well. The fun factor for many of us is influenced by how the game runs and a Fallout 4 on a machine with 512mb of ram is going to also be severely limited on the PS4/X1/PC.

and the PC is going to be severely limited by the jaguar CPU of XB1 and PS4, but we'll get over that if the game is fun

 

[Drazgul]

Better not be cross-gen. Better fucking not.

 

[Xamtheking]

And it begins

 

[JetBlackPanda]

uh oh.

Bethesda saw us complain and they are now destroying all source code.

 

[jett]

I doubt they started working on the game today. Must have been in the works for quite some time already.

...just like MGSV had been in the works for several years before it was announced? I'm not sure what you're trying to say here.

This would be the biggest news. Fallout needs Ron Perlman.

 

[Buttonbasher]

Why do a 24 hour countdown?! Just save it for E3! C'mon Bethesda. It'd hit so much harder if they saved it for THEIR PRESS CONFERENCE, as a complete surprise. Now they're going to put out a teaser a week or two early, and the moment on stage will have a lot less impact. We all knew it was coming, but jeez. Just give your audience the cool reveal on stage. It's your first press conference, so it's not like it's an announcement that would be overshadowed by being presented at another companies conference.

This happens every year, and I'll never understand it. Go ahead and tell your kids what their birthday present is right before they unwrap it. *eyeroll*

Gen, gen never changes.

 

[Nesther]

Yeah and GZ and PP were announced 3 years ago, before we even knew about the PS4. MGS being crossgen is entirely justifiable, FO4 in 2015 however not.

This gon be good

So true. :lol

I went from uncontainable hype to "oh god please don't suck" in mere seconds.

Tomorrow's going to be interesting.

 

[ironcreed]

Even if it was cross-gen, I would not care. I just want the game.

 

[Sifl]

After Fallout 3, New Vegas and Skyrim on last gen, especially the PS3, I can't see them doing this.

 

[todahawk]

Did anyone read the Source Code?

PA system failure has occured.

Yeah, posted it a few pages ago, thread moves damn fast

It would be a lesser game because of it. You should care.

 

[Herpes Reasons]

and the PC is going to be severely limited by the jaguar CPU of XB1 and PS4, but we'll get over that if the game is fun

Because being held back by systems with 8gb of ram is TOTALLY the same as being held back by systems with 512mb of ram...in 2015.

 

[Vincent Grayson]

I doubt they started working on the game today. Must have been in the works for quite some time already.

I heard peeps about it from some people I knew at BGS as much as 2+ years ago, and I'm sure it started development before that.

 

[Sephiroth_GR_]

MGSV was announced ages ago.

It's 2015.

They must both started being developed around the same time. MGS V was just announced 3 years before.

 

[PumpkinSpice]

Uh what if it comes out this year, the same time as MGS5? It's been nearly 4 years since Skyrim was released, 7 since Fallout 3; they've had plenty of time to work on this game.
