How's the framerate? That's the only thing I want to know right now. 4 pages and still nothing.

That's true. But it's the first step in a hopefully much larger process. Modders have done crazy things with 3/NV.

Looks fucking gorgeous IMO
There is already a Jesus on this forum. He thinks that the console version of FO4 looks good.

Transparency is expensive and would require something behind the windows to look at. Looks like they've decided to have the windows covered by centuries of accumulated dirt and grime instead.
Or just used the textures from past games.
They apparently also decided that a few extra polygons for the window frames was another cost too high.

It kinda looks disappointing for ultra specs. I don't see much difference with the PS4 version. I mean, it's not night and day. Welp, the frame-rate will differ for sure.
Anyway, it's not "ugly" as some say, it looks "good enough" just like the console version. Then again, a lot of you seem to be aware that the series is not known for its cutting edge graphics.

PC definitely looks better than the PS4 version, but it's definitely not by a great deal. Which is surprising, considering these are Ultra settings. The game looks good either way, so I guess I'll stick with the console version for a few years until the modding community hits it's stride.
It could definitely look better, but I'm much more bothered with the animation than the graphical quality. I think that's what makes this game look outdated for the most part. I do wonder why the running and movement animations look so dated, especially with the faces being a stark improvement over those in 3/New Vegas.

Lol nah
Lmao.
I had to stifle a laugh. No.
Wasn't that just a rumor?
I think it looks good enough, it's certainly nothing special. It will be interesting to see how far I can downsample this with a 980 Ti while maintaining 60fps+. I think the first thing I'll be doing is tweaking the hell out of the configuration files, although I won't be touching uGrids...
Apparently the official mod tools won't be out until early 2016.

They should've put it on Kickstarter, I'm sure community would help.
Come on guys I thought Fallout 4 would destroy Witcher 3 (lol)

And I think these shots just confirmed that the rumor is not true.
I mean, why would he set it to ultra to show the graphics off, but turned off the gameworks, especially HBAO+?
Thinking about it, I'm OK with the graphics, should be easy to get 60 fps on my 280x.
They've had reflective water since Morrowind at least.

That was a rumor and at this point without confirmation from either Bethesda or nvidia it's probably not happening

Awesome! I ended up running Skyrim in 3D anyways so it didn't bother me at the time, but i'm not interested in that kind of 3D anymore, so i'm glad i'll be able to run this correctly.
That's my issue with it. All those Fallout 3 and even Skyrim visual mods look amazing...but none of them actually did me any good. It's like, by the time they're available, I've long since finished playing. I'll load them up and remark at how cool they are but then proceed not to replay the game. So that's why this is a tad disappointing.
I'm not seeing why exactly Bethesda would refuse giving PC review copies..

Yeah, pretty much this. We'll have to wait for several months to reach that fully modded game.
The earliest and easiest mods we can expect from the community are the sweetfx and enb mods. And I think I'm good with that.
Sweetfx can easily fix that day one.
Why are people upset that a Bethesda game which started development during last-gen and is wildly regarded as one of the most modder friendly franchises doesn't set the standards for open world visuals at vanilla release?
Are we supposed to be rioting because it's going to be a few months before we can start using Fallout 4 as a screenshot simulator instead of an open world FPS/RPG?

Had the PS4 version preordered but I just built a new PC a couple months ago so I'll probably pick it up for that. My last PC was built for Skyrim in 2011 so it seemed only right to go big for this game.
Usually I prefer to play games on console if they are close in quality but I think the advantages of this on PC will be too much to sacrifice.

This is why its best to hold off until the mods are all available if this is important to you.
I want the best experience possible so will wait for ENB's, UI mods etc.

I'm so glad I don't value the same things as most of GAF seems to.
The game looks
I'm not in it for the graphics, I'm in it for the game. If they made a choice to push the world design, quests, or anything else over graphics then excellent. They know people will mod the hell out of it and keep pushing cards for years, so why push that hard? Get the fundamentals down. As long as I can run this at 1080p60+ I'm happy.

- Colourful
- Better than previous games
- Fun

Not even close.
P.S. Animation quality will always be terrible in Bethesda's own games and this can only be fixed with mocap or with the help of moders (same goes for texture work). Bethesda just don't care that much about attention to detail, animation quality and texture work in their own games, there's only moders that actually care about those things more than the actual developers do. As we always say around here in Russia - laziness was born before man.

Close enough that I'm plenty satisfied, personally. On my PC, these graphics @ 60fps, plus maybe a bit of downsampling, and the kinds of ini tweaks that made Witcher 3 such a stunner on PC in such short order, will have me more than happy. Some ambient occlusion (forced or otherwise) should take care of a lot of the plasticky look and give the environments a better sense of place.
I think that these graphics are a lot more competitive than Fallout 3 and Skyrim's were at the time, to be honest. I know I keep saying it but a little AO would go a long way here and I feel like once I can put that shit in my game it'll be looking just fine.

I get a 404, what is this?
The only reason one should dislike eating crow is if you were being a blatant hyperbolic ninny before all the facts were known. If, like me, you were concerned upon seeing the PS4 Just Primary Graphics screenshots with a stark lack of shadows, and expressed this concern in a calm, fair manner, but again like me, were far more encouraged upon seeing ultra PC settings screenshots, then eating crow should be like eating orgasm pie.
