Get outta here, now this is what I'm talking about. Better not be a bullshot.

I don't think there's any chance of that being a bullshot...well I hope not!

[flkraven]

Guess it's time to retire my Pentium 4 pc.

 

[jelly]

Yikes, that screenshot is rough. Not a bullshot at least. Hopefully the game mechanics are amazing, don't do it again Bethesda, shit they might.

 

[MacBosse]

Meh looks like Skyrim with guns.

Anyways jesus you guys are a difficult bunch. These graphics suck now? Man I would want to be a developer in these harsch lands (read forum).

 

[Stereogatari]

Welp. Looks like I'm going to finally play a Fallout.

 

[SuicidalSteve]

I found the slide image preview on that private video from the fallout4.com site before it got taken down...

 

[Summer Haze]

People are calling that screenshot bad graphics?

Man, graphic whoring has really gotten out of hand. It looks pretty goddamn good to me.

This. I mean I can see the low LOD hills in the background, and why it would bother people, but look at everything else! There's so much detail inside that damn garage, and the lighting looks like it's been hugely improved. I think it looks fantastic.

And the Fallout series/ Bethesda has never been known for cutting-edge graphics. I think some people may need to dial their expectations back just a little.

 

[Mikey Jr.]

Thank you Jesus.

 

[Meowster]

Holy SHIT I am DEAD.

 

[RavenSan]

I kind of hope this is a next year release. My backlog is embarrassingly huge. I'm still only like, two hours into Witcher 3.

 

[Keasar]

Folks want to complain about how the game looks, but at least it won't be a downgrade fest when the game releases.

I'm pretty alright with how it looks, with the right mods etc. Skyrim could look downright gorgeous. I just pointed out that the hills in the background reminded me of Skyrim, mostly around its release.

Hopefully with the focus on current gen consoles they can crank up the LOD distance a bit this time.

Shots from the video:

FUUUUUUUUUuuuuuuuuuuuuuUuuuuuUUUUUUCK

 

[DaSorcerer7]

Can fall out games be played in third person?

 

[Jay Sosa]

7 years after 3 and that's the best they can do graphically? Cancel the generation.

Game looks pretty bad, especially after have played a open world like The Witcher 3, i hope the game will be good at least

Did they accidentally throw up a Fallout 3 screen... Like damn all this time and that's what it looks like?

And that's why so many companies post bullshots.

At least we wont have 23 threads complaining about downgrades.

 

[Compsiox]

I found the slide image preview on that private video from the fallout4.com site before it got taken down...

Skyrim? Skyrim.

 

[Coulomb_Barrier]

I'll get this about 6 months after release when some good mods are out for it on PC.

Fallout: NV will last me until then anyway. Probably because I lose about 1 hour each week re-doing parts of the game post crash

 

[witness]

Please be this year, please be this year

 

[BigTnaples]

Did they accidentally throw up a Fallout 3 screen... Like damn all this time and that's what it looks like?

lol.


These kinds of post are why some will never take gaming seriously. The hyperbole is out of control.


For one, if the game has no indoor/outdoor loading cells, and looks like that screenshot, it will be amazing.

Also. Have you seen Fallout 3?

(PC Screen)

It's terrible isn't it

 

[Daverid]

Bethesda

Happy for everyone that's hyped, but I just can't get on board. I haven't enjoyed a Bethesda game since Morrowind, even though I naively kept trying, but I've finally learnt enough to know to just not get excited at all.
Hopefully, for everyone's sake and even mine (When I one day pick it up for like $2 on sale just out of curiosity), it somehow turns out better than expected.

 

[thekiddfran]

Can fall out games be played in third person?

Well technically yes but I wouldnt

 

[Blobbers]

I just hope the game fixing/patching mods remain free no matter what happens.

It just seems wrong to have to pay for it. I equate them to your usual developer patches that come with bug fixes which are always free.

 

[TheCarrotKiller]

Oh, that looks good!
1 hour to go!

 

[kraspkibble]

Hope it runs on my PC. At least then I can run it with mods to make it look better.

 

[yuraya]

Thanks Obama

 

[Kunan]

Unless you've been playing Fallout 3 with a shit ton of mods, you probably don't remember what Fallout 3 looks like.

Yea lol. Fallout was many things, but good-looking was not one of them.

 

[The Llama]

And for the people picketing the graphics already, here's a screenshot of Fallout 3 when it was announced:

And here's what the game looked like when released(no mods):

In my experience actually playing it, it looks a lot more like the first one than the second!

 

[hokagespit]

My old friend. Its so nice to see you again.

 

[DrROBschiz]

In my experience actually playing it, it looks a lot more like the first one than the second!

yeah what the hell

I dont remember fallout ever looking like that second pic

 

[DouglasteR]

HOLY CRAAABSSS

 

[Ajax125]

Why share spotlight? Just smarter PR this way.

Exactly. Give them a tease that will hold them over til e3 comes around, then show them gameplay demo at e3.

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

I found the slide image preview on that private video from the fallout4.com site before it got taken down...

Doggy.

 

[orochi91]

What does this even mean?

Doesn't look impressive at all, which is disappointing given that there isn't even any cross-gen port to hold it back.

 

[SketchTheArtist]

Meh looks like Skyrim with guns.

Anyways jesus you guys are a difficult bunch. These graphics suck now? Man I would want to be a developer in these harsch lands (read forum).

It's a bit depressing.

If they only knew the amount of work that goes in those games.

 

[Mendax]

My old friend. Its so nice to see you again.

dogmeat was your friend as well?

 

[thelastword]

Look at the hills over to the left.

I don't think there's any chance of that being a bullshot...well I hope not!

That looks awful, look at those Oblivion style lowres hills in the background.

Oh brother, didn't watch the pic full size. Ha ha..

 

[mxgt]

Graphics look fine

FO3 and NV looked like shit when they released but are amazing games

 

[iMax]

And that's why so many companies post bullshots.

At least we wont have 23 threads complaining about downgrades.

Bethesda should cancel Fallout 4, restart development and cite everyone complaining about the LOD as the reason. I mean seriously guys, are you not satisfied with anything?!

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

people in here whining that it doesn't look good.

it's like you forgot how terribad last-gen's fallout games looked.

 

[RoboGeorgeForeman]

Can't say I care one way or another how great the game looks graphically, I'm mainly just hoping that Obsidian is involved. My hopes aren't high but I'm definitely waiting for bargain bin prices or completely skipping if they aren't.

 

[JumPeRJumPzZ]

In my experience actually playing it, it looks a lot more like the first one than the second!

Yup. This "its not finished" excuse doesnt work for me.


When you show something from your game, you always will show the most polished stuff.

Its always the case. Even if the the Video/Trailer says Pre-Alpha blablabla

 

[Pharaoh 117]

Nice.

 

[Sevenfold]

Doggy.

Potential unicorn.

 

[RootCause]

Likelyhood that it comes out in 2015? I. Really thirsty for some Fallout. :/

 

[Zia]

Looks great. Bizarre the reaction to this given people like the way The Witcher III looks. Unsure if that game even had an art director on it.

 

[statham]

Can fall out games be played in third person?

Yes, but its janky.

 

[Klart]

Yes, yes, yes! Current gen only!

 

[Nibiru]

Who cares about graphics. If looting and the action is fun then I'm fine.

Although graphics are important, Fallout games are so much fun that it isn't as important as with other games.

 

[Älg]

First screen ?

That looks distinctly like gamebryo. Gotta say, that diminishes my hype slightly. Still excited though.
